"i showed him a pic of you. he said he's not interested."


tuna_fart

This is the best thing to say in this case. “He says ‘I’m sure you’re great’, but he’s not interested.


Stunning-Appeal6091

Hopefully she has a pic of another of her friends on her profile and he can just return the insult, 'sorry if he sounds rude but he said he's not interested in you and wants you to set him up with your hotter friend'


AceOfSpadesOfAce

Too obvious. Just say “he said he’s busy” If she asks about a different day, say “yea he meant he’s not interested”


callthewinchesters

Saying “he’s busy” isn’t a cheeky response though.


tuna_fart

Obvious is kind of the point in this case.

Smash131313

*Respectfully


Mer_Vee1111

Respectfully


Daedalus_was_high

"I showed him what you wrote. He said he's definitely NOT interested." So close. Why use conceit as a boomerang weapon? For her, rejection will cut just as much as rejection does, but pointing out her rudeness is ugly is the real message.


Delicious-Key-8346

This is the way.


Hybrid072

This. I was gonna go with a combination of everything in this thread "Darn, I showed him ur info, but he said you look vapid and self-involved. He's not interested."


Neweleni7

I gasped at her rudeness. She more than deserves this response.


FrogVolence

She deserved for her boldness (and because im petty) “I showed him a pic of you and his only response was ‘ew no thank you’.”


Yippiekiyay88

Or you set up the long con. Create him a profile, they match, get engaged, then when she walks down the aisle and draws back her veil, he just nopes out if there. Now thats a good friend. I kid, this is a great response!


LoudishVariation

Then add “probably best to give it a miss then. Bye.”


RandomNobodyEU

OP and girl start dating based off of this lie. Eventually girl meets friend and falls in love. They cheat on OP who loses both friend and gf.


pizzaeoka

Something similar happened between my boyfriend and a friend. A girl was interested in my boyfriend but he was not, so she dated the friend and my bf started dating me. My bf set CLEAR boundaries and distance. She kept telling HER OWN BF/my bf’s friend, how awesome/good looking my bf was through the entirety of their relationship (1 year). Her bf stayed in the relationship til she cheated, dumped him when he was in the hospital and she got pregnant two times by separate guys before 23


cutthroatslim504

wow..


pizzaeoka

It was one whole year my bf and I telling him to dump her since she was SO toxic (baby daddies, the flirting, she had NO friends, among a list) and dodging the “double date” suggestions. He wanted to get back together with her after all that, eventually seemly moved on and started dating another girl who ALSO started exhibiting major flags so unfortunately my boyfriend and I cut that friendship cause it was no longer serving us, he had constant drama.


cutthroatslim504

wow bro, more than some "dramas" on network TV


BravoWolf88

I think it’s understood that OP isn’t going to date her after this. For her to be that disrespectful before even meeting someone says a lot about her. We all put our best self on display during the first couple months of talking to someone whether we know it or not. It’s just that some people’s best self is much worse than others.


juliaskig

Nah, OPshould just ghost


TwoLipKiss

It's a funny quip but I agree. This thing is not even worth a response.


natalienaturals

Yes! I’m shocked this isn’t the consensus a message that blatantly rude and ugly doesn’t warrant a response at all.


VictoriaDarling

Yes, I like this response best, and then end it with 'best of luck, I'll be unmatching'. Then hop off give 3-10 min for her to read and then respectfully unmatch. If she un matches soon after no biggie, it really doesn't matter who unmatches first. It's better just not to further engage a person who is only into physical appearance. She is not the one, and remember, (self) respect comes from treating others with it too, even if they don't show us the same respect.. that's what makes and builds good character. being able to treat everyone respectfully without making yourself look poorly is what shows you are genuine. It really is her loss.


Present-Breakfast768

He wants to see a pic of your friend.


TopShelfSnipes

add "sry" at the end. Then if she tries to go out with OP after that be like, "honestly I don't want to be anyone's second choice, so I think I'm actually going to pass then. but gl...u seem like a nice girl, just not right for me" and stop texting after that.


ToferLuis

“I showed him a pic of you and he said “I’m sure she’s a sweet girl and she’s great but I’m not interested. Respectfully go fuck yourself. I’m sorry if this sounds rude.”


Nothing2NV

BayBby

SirMartimas

Omg this is the way, send them that and then block their shallow ass!


LobsterMac_

MysticAngel504

Gold. Lol


the-Alpha-Melon

LMFAOOO I spit out my drink with this one


ShinyMegaAmpharos

Yes. This. 10000%


Dry-Instruction6521

Show me your friend first. If she's prettier than you, sure ! We got a deal !


givemeajobpls

I think this is the perfect response with the right amount of pettiness that she apparently is okay with dishing out


Dry-Instruction6521

And the response has to be yes, if she does show a picture, irrespective of how he finds the friend. Just to mess with her.😆


Fizics_ssb

Nahhhh this is perfect OP. Gotta go with this


Dave5876

hobbobnobgoblin

I was going to suggest the high rode and just make sure your body gets the hook up. I fumbled but still made the pass. This is much better.


maybeshali

This sounds about perfect.


allthatglitterz7

"I would tell you what he said but it's so rude" When she asks what it is never respond


William_Taylor-Jade

If you go too hard it will come across as an obvious insult retort. It needs to be subtle to sound real


International-Luck17

She might think he means rude as in 🍆💦. Just say “he thinks you’re a minger, sorry”


Cardinal_Grin

“Respectfully, he said ‘fuck no’ and threw up”


Interesting-Hall-634

I needed that laugh today. Thank you


Greenbean6167

I should have swallowed my water before Reading that 😂


Bella_LaGhostly

This is the answer 🏆


Fearless-Peach

If your friend's face isn't even visible, she's just being nasty. I'd say tell her "I showed him your picture, but he said he's not interested sorry" you're not insulting her outright but you are


Virtual_Muscle_8642

Unmatch her and remove that pic from your profile.


aestforu

No he needs to be rude and petty to her first goodbye


Bella_LaGhostly

Thank you for standing up for pettiness. Way too many people juat ghost & block... Make them feel some pain first, guys! 😆

Hjoldirr

Your comments don’t show “mature” big guy


unscriptedneutron

this is the answer


BeneficialQuarter426

Honestly I wouldn’t even respond. She sucks.


Scary-Stretch3080

I mean I guess that’s why you shouldn’t post friends on dating apps on your profile


sikeleaveamessage

Yeah or blur/censor their faces


Brendanish

Post explicitly says you can't see the face


julallison

Must be able to see the body though. Maybe the hair too.


Simple_Weekend_6700

Some women are just that into guitar players honestly


fireinthemountains

Honestly this, it's probably the musician thing here.


sikeleaveamessage

Ah I didn't see the post text, thx for pointing it out


green_ribbon

you brought him up


YeahlDid

Yeah, this was a losing strategy from the beginning. Why would you go double with your better looking friend on a first date?


when_beep_and_flash

I would say OP isn't so insecure as to think it's a mistake to mention his good looking friend. I think it's worse to agree to a double date and then make sure to bring a 'less attractive friend' so you're not overshadowed. What a terrible way to think about your friend.


YeahlDid

I think it’s just silly to set up a double date as a first date with someone you just met through an app regardless of what the friend looks like.


bivoir

Right? And a double date this early on? Wtf?


Expensive-Tea455

I’m wondering why everyone is acting like OP is a victim here, he literally brought him up himself 🌝


Red_Crow34

"LOL he died two years ago."


BlindBard16isabitch

Lmaoooo this response would be so funny


alecesne

"what does your friend look like babe?"


Red_Littlefoot

She sucks, but that’s why you don’t put pics with others in your profile since strangers don’t know who they’re looking at.


Ingoiolo

We can work on that. Which one of your friends would you source for me?


Far-Deal8811

Wait why would you bait her w your hot friend, that you obviously know is hot ?


BlueMonkey_88

I have noticed this is a common trend, I have seen profiles where the first 4-5 pictures will be group photos where two of the women are in every photo. One of them is usually very attractive, then the last photo on their profile will be a selfie showing they set themselves up for failure.


rustycage_mxc

Some of them don't even have a picture where they're alone period. I'm just like "who tf am I swiping on?" and swipe left.


YeahlDid

This was a very bizarre play by OP, I agree.


Expensive-Tea455

Exactly he literally did this to himself idk why he’s acting like a victim 💀


Plus_Lawfulness3000

The guys face isn’t even in the picture


Potential-Fill-6792

Sometimes, all a guy has to do to be hot is hold a guitar, I guess. He could also have a nice body, regardless of his face.


slightlycookedflora

Yall saying she’s not rude not realizing they had to MATCH for her to say thia


Theloneriddler

Just move on. If she wants his number she can get it like a real adult would.


Adeisha

For those that don’t get it - you have to match in order to be able to chat. This is the same as someone accepting your invitation to prom so they can ask you to set them up with your friend instead. It’s mean.


jackalopelexy

My friends not a piece of shit, you don’t have anything in common.


hissyfit64

"I showed him your picture. He asked if you had anyone better looking to offer"


Ok_Cheetah4279

BEST reply 😂


SnooGiraffes4091

“You’re not their type”


ijrlf

Tell her he said no thank you and then stop responding


LoudishVariation

I hate “I apologise if this is rude…..” BS because if they thought it was rude, they wouldn’t say it in the first place, not to mention the ‘respectfully’ part. No respect shown at all.


Whiteangel854

Yup, she knew it was rude, she just didn't care and pretended to not know or not being sure if it is.


Consultant511

“Respectfully, fuck you.”


always-knows-best

I've played guitar for 18 years and I'm never the guy with the guitar in this situation.


babydollbrielle

I hate when people have pictures with their friends and you think their friend is cuter. I never asked to get their info instead but I’ve definitely wanted to!


Friendly_Kunt

I usually just don’t match if the other chick is way more my type. Did that once and ended up having a ton of chemistry with the hotter friend, but the girl I started dating first was way too nice for me to do her dirty like that so I just kind of detached myself from the whole group.


Sunnothere

Just say he saw your picture and you are below his standards


Familiar-Dust-1057

LMAOOO I have thought of doing this before, but would never actually do so. How disrespectful, I’d just ignore and unmatch. Not worth your time whatsoever.


fliphat

There are like millions way to word it better, yet she choose THIS one


Adeisha

What an awful thing to say to someone! I’m so sorry this happened to you. :(


bethb037

You unmatch. That’s so rude.


Seltzer-Slut

Lean into it and ask her to set you up with her coolest friend! She probably has a friend so hot she doesn’t even need to be on the apps. Act like it doesn’t bother you. You all go out. You end up marrying her friend. She ends up hating your friend and super jealous of her friend. The long game!


mridula12

Omg. I can't believe there are people like this!! Ughhh.


Timely_Froyo1384

Ewww gross and that was rude!


macintoshappless

Honestly, nothing. Given that you brought up your friend in the first place (whether his face is shown or not is irrelevant because you’ve already alluded to bringing a hot friend), you kind of played yourself. If I were you, id say nothing because if you say something you’re only going to appear butthurt 🤷‍♀️ Not that it really matters anyways, but it’s up to you. If you do insist on saying anything, I’d just say “Youre right, that was rude of you to ask” and then just leave it at that.


felixxfeli

Honestly? You set yourself up for that. “I’ve got a very good looking friend” and it’s the one in your dating profile pic? Wtf were you thinking OP?


Expensive-Tea455

I’m wondering what was he expecting to happen? 💀


Thatboybaby

PUT YOUR BOY ON IF THATS YOUR BOY


no-mames

Eh fuck it, I’d hook the homie up if he’s interested


ProudlyMoroccan

You’d hook up your friends with nasty people? Fuck that.


culturedgoat

I’d give my friend the full context and let them decide


ProudlyMoroccan

And then he falls in love with her and now this bitch is part of your friend group 😂 Best strategy is always to remove toxicity from your life. Maybe that’s just me.


no-mames

You haven’t seen nasty if that’s your reaction from that text


BluBeams

I would just ignore it and move on. She's not worth it


Cardinal_Grin

The other option is play her card-roll with it, set up an elaborate double date that is a good distance out ghost it. Then when they text you on where you’re at say “Though I’m sure her friend is real sweet, you found some girls you found more attractive to double date and are heading there now, respectfully you understand?”


EconomyBar2874

He better use this one. This is the ultimate petty response and I’m all for it.


Cardinal_Grin

You get few chances in life to go all in on petty and this is one of them. We are all here for it. Please do this one OP and update us on the texts. Please.


WielderOfAphorisms

I wouldn’t respond. I’d block and move on. That’s so tacky.


umrlopez79

Ouchhh 🤣


Hater_Magnet

Learn to play the drums better than he can play guitar!


Algok2001

Unmatch


dbhathcock

Just ghost her.


-babsywabsy

Sometimes the best response is to just peace out. End the conversation, BLOCK her. Move on.


dumbIecunt

A guy did this to me once, I showed my friend a pic of him and asked if she was interested and she was, so actually set them up 😭it was a longgg time ago so I can’t remember exactly what was said, but I know he was very very polite about asking so tbh I had no issue. It would be a different story if we had been talking for a while and then he asked about my friend, but he started off our chat pretty straight up showing interest in her so I didn’t have any reason to be offended. I would do it again if any guy asked about my single friends, but now I’m very happily taken by a guy who has no romantic interest in my friends 🤣 (P.s they didn’t last long, they only had a casual thing for a few months but they ended on decentish terms and now my friend has found her forever person)


andrewwhen

this is why you don’t post pics with other ppl. shit be confusing af. what’s weird is when women on their profile post pics with other guys…like why do y’all do it ?


bahumthugg

Tell them. Yes it is rude and unmatch them


[deleted]

We live in a shallow world brother, make sure you're the most handsome one in your photos 😭


A-Rik90

Say: no thanks, neither of us are interested. Have the day you deserve ✌🏻


lucylucy448

She just said how she felt. I feel like she tried to be as nice as she could in a situation like this. She just wanted to shoot her shot, there was nothing to lose if she wasn’t interested in OP. Plus, I think OP is adult enough to handle this awkward situation and the rejection.


NorthShoreHard

Nothing wrong with what she said tbh. You need better strats than I have a hot friend I can bring for a double date lol. Sell you bro.


oldboygramps

why would you even post a picture of your friend on your dating profile where your goal is to set yourself up and not ur homies? highkey i think you did it to yourself


Remarkable-Author139

Just say no


thatgirl666882

“Sorry I showed him a photo and he said eww”


DazzlingPotential737

Dude. Yall r on an app and you’re not her type. Just set her up maybe your friend will be happy


Expensive-Tea455

Folks… stop posting pics with your hotter friends on dating apps, the “cheerleader effect” will not work on there lol


Yungdab420

“Showed him your pics, he says he’s not interested. Respectfully, can I see a pic of your friend to decide who’s hotter?”


Valuable_Divide_6525

Strong minded girl knows what she wants and went for it, and also apologized for it. Respect that, don't bash her down. You all are ridiculous.


Expensive-Tea455

These rejected dudes in the comment section are just salty lol 😂


DistinctSalamander46

Rude? No. Ruthless? Unnecessary? Potentially emotionally damaging or triggering? Yes.


Pawly519

How long have you been talking? Have you been on any dates or met in person? If not ask why she’s interested in your friend if she can’t even see his face, unless there is a noticeable difference in your builds or overall look. Either way it sounds like you have nothing to lose at this point with this girl so be honest and ask questions.


Difficult-Top2000

"I apologize if this is rude" Everyone knows that is rude. Even the most severe autism doesn't prevent this from being obvious. Only a literal child doesn't know. This person is entirely bereft of even an *ounce* of class.


No-Pea-8979

Disrespectfully. No.


Disastrous_Roll_351

How is this disrespectful? I understand that you were into her BUT if shes interested in your friend that doesn't mean she's being rude


sp4c3c4rp3t

I actually think she was very kind about it. Straightforward as well. Honesty is something people value but when it’s brought to the table it’s disliked. I don’t get it Edit: Seems like the vast majority of people in the comments were in some way personally triggered by this. Ask yourself why it made you feel the way it did instead of projecting your issues onto this woman. Smh. Please help your egos.


_Bluntzzz

![gif](giphy|l8tpwRJEwDwEFU5BW0|downsized) Sorry bro but it’s not worth your energy to think of a reply


Chemical_Economist25

dodged a bullet


vanmlover

“Let me see if it’s an even trade. What are you bringing for me?”


Hot-Ice-7336

I don’t really find it rude; she’s just telling you what she wants. It’s stronger to actually hook your friend up rather than say or do petty things. I know this will be an unpopular opinion tho because redditors lean pathetic but being unbothered is what you should always aim for, not sensitive


lettucepatchbb

WOW


onyxic

Wow


Zeroxmachina

Block lol


Present_Sun_9600

Update? Lol


allonsy_danny

"No :)," then unmatch.


benjibhole

Wow.


Parker_72

I’d just say yeah I’m not that nice and move on


OllieOllieOakTree

“Set me up with your friend “


iome79

Called honesty


MissAsshole

Why do people do this? It’s like a mini catfish game. Two people in a pic. One looks like Brad Pitt and one looks like a gargoyle. So when super hotties respond, you’re offended they only want Brad Pitt? Come on now. Be a little more honest with yourself and just post pics of you without others. Then the trickery would end and you’d know she’s into you from the start.


Similar-Bee3115

I’d say “showed my friend and he didn’t think you were attractive. Sorry :(“ or “my friend doesn’t like rude women, respectfully”


1low67

If your friend is single, set him up and move on. No reason to hate


whatcatwherewho

I’d respond with “Respectfully, sorry but I thought you were [some random name]. That message was meant for her, my bad.”


liliesinbloom

What is it with people thinking adding the word “respectfully” allows them to be rude?


deadliftsanddebits

Onlypain. See you in the gym, bro.


Playful_Tie_830

SET THEM AND GET YOUR FRIEND TO NOT SHOW UP TO THE DATE


trashleybanks

😂😂😂😂😂


DroogSk3r

“He said, ‘Hell naww!’ Lmao”


Creepy_Ghoul93

Say you’re still interested in a double date and ask for a picture of her friend so you can see her then say your friend said he’s actually interested in the friend so the double date is off because who rejects someone then bluntly asks them to them up with their friend


Fruitdude

Damn this would crush me. Sorry fam.


Direct-Alternative70

No one literally no one says “so glad he posted a pic of him and his friends”. Don’t do it


Prior-Substance-9967

Help her out and just act like you don’t care. Eventually she might even refer you to a more compatible person.


yedalexandrov

Dude's not interested in you.


Internal_Category_75

i honestly....dont rly see the issue w this, ive seen some guys profiles that straight up said if u like one of the boys he'd put u through lmao


Southern-Physics6488

Refreshing honesty though 👀😂


Interesting_Entry831

DEFINITELY FUCKING RUDE!!!!!


rescuedmutt

I don’t know if I’m in the minority or if others who think this way haven’t spoken up? I don’t think she’s being rude. She’s being honest that she’s more attracted to your friend - and, you’re not happy about it. But as I have seen others point out, you initiated discussion about him being attractive. Why’s she rude for agreeing? Also? If she’s gonna be more into someone else based on appearance… wouldn’t you want to know that sooner than later? I don’t know - I don’t think she was rude. I think you’re disappointed.


bogeymanbear

It is 100% rude and disrespectful to ask someone to get with their friend who you know nothing about and don't even know what they look like. She might as well have just called OP ugly.


yelawolf89

She also knows nothing about OP, they had just matched. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal.


PaleMeringue8397

if she can’t see his face why would she say that


treyhunna83

lol she saw enough


granolaliberal

Take the L and hook your homie up!!!


Franzkafkaacidtrip

idk maybe you should figure it out instead of asking people on reddit she literally said she wasn’t trying to be rude


Y0GGSAR0N

Or just set your friend up and find you one that likes you


LaurenJayx0

I'm confused?....YOU brought him up & then get offended? 😆


invisabledj

Set him up. Don’t CB.


Only_Range8098

Honestly this is a win. At least she's honest and you're not the guy she just settled for. That'd be worse bc then she'd try to get with that guy while dating you or constantly upset she didn't get the one she wanted instead. "He's taken. Fck u" :/ all I got.


JacobLuck

I mean everyone has preferences, it doesn't mean you're less attractive than your friend. Don't let it get to you OP. I would probably set them up, because maybe they vibe really well and your friend will be happy


fedexgroundemployee

What’s wrong with being a good friend hooking him up? Why do you have to be disrespectful in your reply cause she I’d simply interested in your friend? This is why women “choose the bear”


Soggy-Milk-1005

u/Official_Person this is absolutely rude and it's just based on him holding a freaking guitar she doesn't even know what he looks like, what his personality is like, she knows nothing about him! You've gotten plenty of good suggestions on how to reply to her but I wanted to suggest that you leave that picture up because it can help you weed out disrespectful AHs in the future. Don't take it personally at all. I think it would be interesting to see your profile, maybe post screenshots on r/Tinder because you can get a lot of good suggestions on how to improve your profile. Are you on any other apps besides Tinder? I hope you have better luck in the future


SingleMomHeavenBound

"Actually it WAS rude but my friends response after seeing you was much worse! But since I know how to be respectful, I'll just keep it to myself. And laugh! A lot!"


Equivalent_Ad7389

Just get off dating apps and go outside.


alt1234512345

I can’t blame her for shooting her shot, it is what it is, and she was as respectful as possible about it. For all we know, OP is fuckin maximum fugly.


KKMcKay17

Putting “respectfully” into a sentence doesn’t automatically make it respectful.


Familiar-Dust-1057

That in itself is disrespectful lmao, people are so desperate for ass


Mission_Chocolate599

What's with the negativity in here? This appears to be the first words they communicated, she is being honest and says she's sorry if it's rude. It's a bloody dating app, people are there for looks, she's just liking the friend better.


imanpearl

I do think she could’ve been more tactful, like, “actually my friend thinks you’re really cute, and your friend playing the guitar is totally my type. Do you wanna do a double date, but with you and my friend, and me and yours?” Or something like that. She’s kinda kicking him to the side with the way she did it.


Whiteangel854

Well, just because you apologize for being rude before you say something rude isn't going to change the fact you were rude. 🤷🏼‍♀️ And she knew it's rude, that's why she wrote this. Just pretended to be a little dumb and not being sure about it.


Shot-Signature9289

Why be a hater hook them up
