We all have a Tinder account. Yes, all of us. And, if you don’t, you’re either lying or living under a rock. For those of us on Tinder, we can be categorized into two groups of people. The first is the group of guys and girls who actually want to meet someone new. Get to know someone, and maybe even go on a date? The second (and more entertaining) group embraces the app as a way to meet one-night stands. You know, the ones that send you the corniest pickup lines: “Can I call you ‘eyebrows?’ Cause these eyes be browsing you.” We here at Her Campus conducted a social experiment using Tinder, and what we found is pretty obvious – your first impression is everything. It affects whether you swipe left or right. So, what are the most common first impressions? Read below for the 25 thoughts you have while scrolling through Tinder!
