After a month and a few weeks of toying on Tinder, I may finally have my first Tinder hookup. She has made it clear she wants to bang but we have decided on a location. I said "her place", she said "she lives at home". I said I do too, what's your address?"

The things I've been doing are making everything a joke like "you're too cute to be this dumb" and instead of focussing on the dumb she took the cute bait.

I'm just baffled at how much of this seddit stuff is working and it's starting to feel more natural to me as if I'm a kid again teasing girls and making them cry on the playground but they love it even when they say they don't!

I'm not a woman. Can a dude explain why this works?
