Newbies to our group - there are a lot of us now - may wish to see what Branch Swinging and Hamstring looks like in real life.

Branch Swinging is lining up a new partner before the existing relationship has ended.

Hamstering is a mental exercise to rationalise an irrational decision.

The nice folks at r/tinder posted the following Tinder chat.

Him: If you're seeing someone why are you on tinder

Her: So I have an option if everything goes wrong

Him: Are you in a committed relationship with this guy?

Her: Yeah. But I'm really scared I'm going to screw things up. If that makes any sense???

Points to consider

Don't get mad. Calling her a two timing bitch won't solve anything.

This is how the game is played. Branch Swinging happens. Not every time, but enough that it is something to be aware of.
