What is he doing here?
A single gal matched with a potential suitor on a dating app, only to soon realize the sleazy guy was not only in a relationship — but he was dating her friend.
The shocked dater posted her story to the r/TwoHotTakes forum on Reddit — which has since been deleted — sharing this jaw-dropping story that began with her matching with a guy who caught her eye.
After swiping right on each other, he immediately messaged her and the two started chatting.
She explained why she was initially drawn to him: he was “cute” and had a “funny bio” — yet something about him “seemed familiar,” although she couldn’t put her finger on it.
After mentioning the very minor detail of what his favorite coffee shop is — which coincidentally is the same cafe she and her friend frequent — the suspicious woman started to put two and two together.
It suddenly dawned on her that she not only knew who this guy was — she had previously been on “double dates with this man.”
Of course, she called him out, and his reply was eye-roll-inducing: “He says, ‘Oh, haha, yeah… but this is just for fun, don’t tell her,’” the OP wrote in her post. “Like he was asking me to keep his little ‘oops’ secret.”
Thankfully, she was more rational than this liar of a guy and quickly unmatched him.
Now the question at hand is whether she should tell her friend about this betraying interaction, or keep it to herself.
Obviously, the many Reddit users in the post’s thread didn’t hold back with their thoughts and opinions on the situation — and rightfully so, this story is wild.
“You’re not the one blowing up a relationship by being honest.”
“He did that by stepping outside of their relationship. By his own admission, it doesn’t seem like they’re poly or otherwise open, so this is totally on him.”
“Tell her and take a screenshot as proof that you can. You won’t be the only person he’s talking to.”
While this two-timing guy should be banned from dating apps — other men are being told to lower their expectations when it comes to online dating.
According to new research, fellas are aiming too high when swiping for their perfect match.
“Men tended to express interest in women who were more desirable than themselves, while women typically pursued men of more similar desirability,” a team of international researchers discovered, according to the PLOS One journal.
