I'm too poor to afford a smartphone. Do any of you have a reliable way to use Tinder on a desktop? Setting aside the fact that I probably shouldn't bother trying to date anyone until I'm not poor as fuck, of course. Is it even any better than OKCupid? Because I've had no luck there.
Anyway, I've tried to use it through Youwave and Bluestacks with no luck, and Googling isn't giving me any better ideas.. Basically I just need someone who is using Tinder on their desktop to tell me how the hell they're doing it, or for someone who is using Tinder on their phone to tell me that it isn't even worth the effort.
If you are not getting bitches without Tinder, you will not get them with Tinder.
Landon Harris
I have more porn than I can even handle, and I'm honestly cool with fucking myself instead of looking for someone else to fuck. At this point I'm just enough of a dipshit to think that I might find a relationship with a stranger on the internet that won't end miserably.
Wyatt Murphy
you could probably emulate a phone on your desktop. im way too fucking tired and lazy to explain it fully, just look up smartphone emulators, you can basically have a virtual phone to put the app on.
also theres probably an easier way, but that's just what comes to mind if its actually proving that difficult
Landon Price
Hah, that's what I figured. Yeah, I feel like I could maybe make something happen if I met more people (until recently it wouldn't happen without some stranger knocking on my door and asking me to fuck her), and I really am trying to get out more, but it isn't happening fast enough.
Parker Garcia
Signed up for Tinder. App asks for my FB. Deleted App.
AFF. Use that. Buy a three month membership and get talking to women. I've done this a few times. Usually I'll meet 2 or 3 women. Maintain them until somone gets bored.
Jeremiah Perry
If you're poor, no girl with touch you. Not even with a ten foot pole.
Carter Carter
Am I wrong for even thinking Tinder is a place to go for an actual relationship rather than a pump and dump? I've never used it before. I'd hate to go through a lot of effort just to find that it's never going to give me what I'm actually looking for.
Isaiah Bell
Hooking up and having relationships is all dandy but fucking empty and worthless in the long run. In the end you are just a number.
Evan Thompson
Figured as much. On the other hand, I have female friends who have dated numerous deadbeats. Those relationships didn't work out, to be fair, but it wasn't about the money. That said, it's probably more like the things that drew them to these dudes despite their brokeness are the same things that made them shitty boyfriends in the long term.
Michael King
>installed tinder >wanted to fuck around, no serious shit >first date, 8/10 cute girl >another date with that girl >and another >and yet another >She's now my gf for 2 years
Haven't fucked around tho....
Logan Martin
Thanks. I've tried a couple of smartphone emulators, but I know there are plenty of them out there. I'll try others. I'll also try to figure out what the hell AFF is while I'm at it.
Congrats, unless 'haven't fucked around' means you haven't fucked her after 2 years. That gives me hope, unless you haven't fucked her after 2 years.
Colton Taylor
Ofcourse i fuck her. What i wanted to say is... i've installed tinder just to fuck some random chicks. I wasn't looking for something serious, but the first girl i was dating was the one.
Stop trying to look for a relation, and you will probably find one.
> yea fuck my english. Drunk Dutch guy here.
Ryan Sullivan
Yes you are. If you're looking for a relationship, rather start meeting people irl. The thing about chemistry matching isn't complete bullshit. Some people get attracted to each other though they were completely in terms of beliefs, morale and looks.
The best way to engage in a relationship is really moving on with your own life and not even think about it. Meet people, talk to people, remain true to yourself in conversations and incidentally you might happen across someone who truly loves you and sparks something inside you.
Tinder is for people that either want to get laid or do not know what they are looking for, thus ending up with a line of short term relationships. I'm not saying it's an impossibility to find your life mate from Tinder, but it's highly unlikely for such thing to happen.
I used Tinder for about a year. Personally I'm not the kind of guy that's looking for company to get laid and certainly not someone who would waste their time on a relationship that lasts a couple of months. So I decided that Tinder isn't for me.
Josiah Sanders
Your English is fine, I just misunderstood.
Anyway, yeah, deep down I know that's the best move, to stop looking for a relationship (not that I've REALLY been looking hard, but recently I've at least been thinking about it a lot) and just focus on improving myself, and someone will probably come along when I'm ready/worthy. I'm just being impatient, really.
Blake Bailey
*completely different, even. Blah. Just woke up.
Joseph Kelly
So you are poor and want to hook up with girls on tinder lmao, are you expeting them to pay for everything? What will you say when they ask you for your number or try to call you when they are about to meet up, on the other hand it would be funny to imagine you fail hard, so please go ahead
Carter Lee
Thanks user. Well said. I have been meeting more people lately through the few friends I do have, trying to put myself out there more. I guess I've just been impatient because I feel like this motivation I suddenly have isn't going to last for too long. I should probably just keep my focus on making new friends, and also start working harder to improve my life so it's at all appealing when someone comes along who interests me.
Gavin Cooper
Wow. I never thought I'd read this kind of comment on Cred Forums. You're definitely on the right tracks, mate. Just make sure you don't end up too humble and become a bitch for some bitch.
Ethan Ortiz
Hookers are better then relationships dude, I promise.
Anthony Hill
Nah, not really. I make enough to pay for myself, to get out and do things on the weekend. Just not enough to impress anyone. I could even afford a better phone, honestly, I just don't feel like it's worth the money when my only motivation to upgrade my shitty drug dealer phone is to use dumb shit like Tinder.
Matthew Kelly
It will all be fine user. Even if you're ugly/fat or something (but in that case you need to start lowering your standards a bit)
Start getting your shit together . You are poor/in depts? First, start cleaning you enitre house, wash all your clothes, clean your car and that kind of shit. Start eating healthy, start to walk for an hour a day or so.
It will all make you feel a bit better about yourself.
Start looking for a (better) job
Focus on yourself, and you will find some bitch you like.
> wow, advise from a drunk dutch guy, at work : 11:02 am
Jose Wood
Thanks.
Fortunately I'm average looking and not fat. I am a 5'7" manlet with the body of a middle schooler, to be fair. Still, I've seen people who are equally unexceptional getting with chicks who are way out of my league, so I know my problems are entirely in my head and in the choices I've made.
Adam Ortiz
thing about men is we are all fucking ugly. there is a chick out there that will find you hot no matter how fucked up you are. especially if you look like her dad. most chicks have daddy issues.
Ryder Perez
I think this is one of the nicest treaths in the history of Cred Forums.
I`m almost thinking about asking for some money!
Dylan Nguyen
Well, if it sparks any hope in you, I'm a jobless bum that lives on government money because of mental problems (hallucinating, anxiety, depression and anger management issues combined with insomnia), I'm even unable to have children, and even I've found trusty relationships. I'm 26 and I've had several girlfriends that weren't just dtf, but actually took care of me in return for taking care of them. I'm decently intelligent and rather good looking though, but I feel like only the intelligence part matters. Well, that is except for my last relationship where the girl actually dated me because I looked like a certain celebrity. Needless to say I wasn't that amused when I found out.
Nathaniel Hughes
yeah man whats your paypal/bitcoin address, how much you need?
ill fuckin do it if you give me a bitcoin address and ask for less than $5.
Haha, don't think I'll look much like anyone's dad. I'm 26 and probably still have a few years before I'm no longer regularly mistaken for a high school kid.
Maybe if they have little brother issues?
I know, right? I'm just too tired at this point (tonight and in life generally) to be a badass, or even lash out at the one guy who tried to be a dick, and everyone is being weirdly nice about how pathetic I'm coming off here.
Kevin Garcia
>Maybe if they have little brother issues? not age wise i mean facial features, etc.
Sebastian Wright
See, that's the kind of broken woman I need to find. Emotionally I'm solid as a rock, empathetic, etc. -- I just don't have my life together for shit, because I spent most of my teens and early 20s tripping balls and smoking weed. It made me the person I am today mentally, so I don't think I'd take it all back, but I'm so fucking far behind where I should be.
Julian Sullivan
Your are such a dumb cunt. If you are on this site and dont even have a smart phone, there is a very low (no existent) chance any one will ever sleep with you. Just wank until you graduate and get a good job or kill yourself.
Kevin Ross
heh you sound like you're ok OP, I would bet on you to come through (and you will). Cheers faggot
Anthony Campbell
Then again, the person I am mentally is an insecure loser who is whining on Cred Forums, so what do I really have to be thankful for?
Levi Barnes
get job in any trade, in two years youll be making 50k+ a year.
Isaac Parker
Haha thanks Cred Forumsro, but i dont even have paypal/bitcoin. I do need about 3k.. haha. Can you help my with some advise how to make it quick?
Bentley Jenkins
what you need 3k for? sell all you shit, deal meth, run pot from cali to the midwest, youll have it in less than 3 days with 2k to spare m8.
If you're too poor to afford a smartphone you're too poor to have a girlfriend
Aaron Perez
Fucked up a bit... stopped opening my mail and stopped paying health insurance. Need 3k to fix everything.
Selling my shit already. Running pot wont help me, because its legal here
William Watson
It's the idea of where you "should" be that's fucking you up. You should be right where you are. :)
Jack Perez
Tinder is garbage. Had no luck on there.
OkCupid gave me better luck. Plenty of Fish as well.
Xavier Wright
Already graduated and still don't have a good job, so you missed an opportunity to zero in on just how much I suck, but thanks. This feels more like a proper Cred Forums thread now.
Thanks.
Good advice. I've looked into that kind of thing, and I just never felt at all passionate about any of those lines of work, but it's probably about time I said 'fuck it' and just picked something already.
Yeah, we established that a while ago, and I pretty much knew it already. I was just in denial, thinking the fact that I'd be cool with having a poor girlfriend means anything at all, when it almost certainly doesn't.
Samuel Jenkins
...or more legal things. Sell blood/sperm. Do gay porn. Or just be camwhore if you feel more comfortable. Sleep studies. Prescription drug trials. Buy stuff from Goodwill in rich neighboorhoods, then sell it on ebay. The money is out there, you just have to get creative.
Jeremiah Mitchell
>paying health insurance so what? do you mean you have medical bills? dont stress it. make a payment plan with whoever is calling you. most will accept as little as $50 a month and they can't send to collections if your making payments.
course you can always run out to cali, make some cartel hooks and run weed to the midwest. nigga we need more dro up here!
Dylan Green
AFF?
Isaac Richardson
Not medical bills, but i stopped paying my insurance plan, never responed to phonecalls and mails and now they seized my salary..
Jeremiah Martin
We're all insecure losers on the inside. Some people just cope with it by trying to be though, others cling for relationships in order to save themselves and some people get addicted on drugs. It is only when you realize that you are a loser when you can truly accept yourself.
The worst days I'm getting literally tortured by my own head. Those days I shut myself in my house, so I won't accidentally hurt myself or other people around me. I never do, but I want to be certain. At times I go through excessive amounts of pain because of a projected realities.
But if I were to weep for that my whole life, I would be constantly sad. I just learned to accept it as it comes.I learned to accept that it's a part of me that will probably never go away.
But one advice I would want to give to you, is that don't look for broken people. You'll end up braking yourself. A wise man called Anthony de Mello wrote a lot about this. About how crazy it is to abandon your happiness because someone else is sad. You'll just end up as two broken people instead of one.
In fact, Mystics have always told depressed people that they are being irrational and stupid. And I find out that it's very much true. When I get depressed, I just tell myself that whatever troubles me is just another perception, an angle. And I need to change the angle I look at things.
Ever consider yourself lucky to have the luxury of running water? All the people out there dying of starvation and thirst, even some of them know how to smile and to be grateful, but yet we're baffled by the smallest, most meaningless problems such as relationships and politics. Makes you think when you turn that tap on how lucky you really are.
Kayden Gutierrez
lol what? if you dont pay insurance they just drop you. they cant garnish your wages man.
Leo Lee
Very good point, and it is something I think about a lot. I do appreciate how lucky I am, as much as I'd like to change and improve. I think I'm going to leave on that note.
Goodnight Cred Forums, do with this thread as you will. Good luck to the user who needs some quick cash.
Isaac Watson
>they cant garnish your wages They can and they do. Here in the Netherland you are required to be insured.
Nathan Lee
>It is only when you realize that you are a loser when you can truly accept yourself this. i never worry bout looking like a fool because i am a fool. fuck it. everyone i have ever met is a fool.
Justin Brooks
oh shit i didn't know you lived in a commie state. don't you people have some epic welfare programs? government is fucking you over might as well got some back.
Justin Bennett
I think the problem persists in the society we live in. We are constantly handed stuff for free. Someone that makes 150K a year may think he deserved that money with his hard work. But in a world where most people actually work harder than that guy, some of them may even see him as a lazy guy that just got lucky, I think their point of view is much more accurate. Very often it is actually criticism that is right, but most of us are just not mentally stable enough to take criticism, to feel bad about ourselves, to progress and learn beyond our current capabilities.
Because in the end, it is much more safer to not recognize these problems, stay asleep, if you will - but once waken up you wonder why in the hell would you keep dreaming nightmares out of fear, when all you really need to do is to forget how to fear and embrace the world as it is.
Xavier Brooks
Bro how u too poor for a smartphone
Christian Cooper
The key is to think like a goldfish. That is all i will say for now google it and let your harem dreams come true.
Andrew Barnes
i didnt even know there were any phones around that werent smart phones these days
Jayden Campbell
Nah, the problem is that i HAVE a job, and i rent a house, So i do get to much money to get some welfare, but i do not have enough money to fix my mistake (not paying and not responding)
Adam Rodriguez
So you're the weasel sucking that money outta my pocket every paycheck. Good for you i have all those problems too and somehow i still show up to work and do a good job everyday.
Jeremiah Mitchell
well isn't them taking your paycheck fixing the mistake? might have to explain shit to your land lord, if you can't make rent, beg for mercy, etc.
dunno if you mean 3k is real money or neatherlanbux or whatever but that really isn't much. you should be able to work out a payment plan.
Nicholas Jackson
*tough
Connor Wood
It is, i'ts like 2 months of salary. Already explained my landlord...
In the end everythings is going to be ok, but it will be a couple of real tough months...
Also, we have euro's.
Josiah Watson
Same in the usa now, i have to pay insurance i don't even use so some pothead can go get his medicinal weed.
Luis Gomez
holy fuck 1.5k in a month? thought you northerners were well off.
dont pay. let the system continue collapsing. then, if demos are in office healthcare will be free, if reps are in then it will go back to the decent way.
John Stewart
adult friend finder
Jeremiah Wilson
Use Andy (android phone emulator) or get one of those $30 dollar android phones from walmart. Damn thing is just as powerful as a $400 dollar phone a relative had bought me, also has a slot for SD cards and is honestly even faster than the other phone I have. Just know most bitches on Tinder are looking for the hottest, richest fuck even if they are walmart creature tier m8, so don't get your hopes up.
Luke Robinson
I have heard in tales told long ago how our ancestors walked the earth. They carried with them ingenious devices, indifferentiable from bricks, with which they made communication with one another.
Levi Morales
2k before taxes... I`m a 25 y/o system engineer. I do not earn a lot..
Ethan Murphy
So far i still haven't paid, and so far the irs hasn't noticed.
Alexander Cruz
It's not that I'm not doing anything. I paint, I make music. And those people that get something out of my work get something from it. All in all, I'm just not asking money for it, though I do sometimes get some money from kind people. The important part for me in my work is to make people happy. I mean, if you value money, it doesn't mean I have to. I've found better things in my life.
I've also been doing volunteer work, was actually helping the local church to build an orphanage a couple years ago so at least those left by their parents get a roof over their heads. But I didn't get paid a single penny for that, I got paid in getting to feel good about myself.
But of course, if you wish to persist in a bubble of money being the sole purpose of our existence, I'm not forcing you to listen. But I'm also stating that we have nothing to discuss about.
Justin Cook
Kek im at 2k before taxes too.
Landon Richardson
ditto. didn't get fined for not paying last year. might be harder this year but the fine is still less than insurance. should have it though work soon anyway.
well fuck dont you have parents you can bum off of? anyway GL with your shit. answer your phone next time :P
Mason Evans
if youre too poor for a $40 phone then youre too poor for a fuck
Ian Perry
Thanks man. Eventually i will be fine
Ian Foster
nigga ive seen homeless people fucking on the railroad tracks. no such thing as too poor to fuck.
John Ward
Will not fuck a hobo
Ethan Bailey
fuckin prude
Jordan Roberts
Tinder in a nutshell... Bitches with half naked pics and 2+ kids already with profiles saying, "swipe left if you're here for hookups, I'm not about that" or some witty saying that they want a guy with a beard and a dog. The other half are fat ugly chick's that claim feminist.
Carson Wright

Julian Wright
There are many people making their salary in order to make more money to make companies like Néstle and Coca-Cola, that no matter how you look at it, end up harming people on a global scale. Can you not say, that these people work for these companies out of selfishness, because of their own need for survival? In the end it's the line of work, what you do that matters, not how much money you earn by doing it.
A while ago I gave a painting to my friend's father. He told me that the certain painting helped him understand the world around him and how he felt like an idiot for not realizing these things beforehand. It was that painting that woke him up and made him quit drinking. It was a funny coincidence that just happened. He's a poor man that works his ass off, he offered me 200€ for it but I refused. To me, it is enough to know that he appreciates my work, that it helps him in some way.
To most people, it's just another painting. But for him, it was a doorway to see himself and accept what he saw. And I find stuff like that much more important than the ever wavering economy, that can barely hold itself together.
