If you're like me, you absolutely hate seeing Tinder posts on r/seduction and r/askseddit, but you can't deny it's usefulness as a tool for gettin laid. I travel a lot for work and pleasure, which means I often stay in hotels in the downtown areas of major cities. I don't really enjoy going out solo, so I turned to Tinder awhile ago to get laid when I'm on the road. I've had great success with it. Here's how.

Before you arrive in the city, use a fake GPS app to spoof your location. These apps are available for free and are super easy to use. Now that Tinder limits your swipes to ~100 per 12 hours, it's important to get an early start. Ideally, I'll be swiping in the new city a week before I get there.

As far as your actual profile goes, I think too many guys put too much effort into it. For a long time, I didn't even have an About Me section. Now I only have a one sentence joke, and I haven't noticed any change in my number of matches. My About Me does, however, make a joke about a popular singer, which prompts a lot of my matches to message me first. What more important is your pictures. Make sure they show you looking your best.

When you get a match, I've found that a sense of humor is what you want to convey in your first message. A lot of guys suggest commenting on o something you both liked on Facebook or something you found interesting in one of her pictures. No. No one gives a shit that you both like Foo Fighters and she doesn't want to answer a bunch of questions about her trip to China, at least not right away. I read a guide written by a guy whose opener was "Why haven't we had sex yet?" I used this for awhile and it got a surprisingly high response rate and the responses were almost always neutral at worst positive at best. I've gotten called out a couple times because other guys use that same line. The following are owners I've used with success:

"(Name), you are too fucking cute!"

"Oh my God! Why haven't we been on a date yet?"

"You're only X miles away!?! I'll be there in 20 minutes."

"Dibs!!!"

All of these have very high response rates. And, for the record, I'm good looking, but not so much so that I can get a response by using any old line.

During the conversation, it's good to be slightly sexual, but you don't want to overdo it. With the girls I've hooked up with from Tinder, it's rare that we discuss us having sex before meeting. The girls that I'm overly sexual with tend to flake. When you're messaging girls, your goal should be to set up a date just like you would if you were Tindering in your hometown. My go to is a bar hop. Just ask the girl to show you a few of her favorite bars. Once you meet it's just like any other date.

This leads me to the most important paragraph you will ever read about Tinder. Girls who are willing to meet at your hotel room and fuck you are rare, but there are lots of girls who are open to sex with you. Girls know that Tinder is a hookup app. That doesn't mean they're going to fuck you after seeing 5 pictures and having a 20 line conversation. They want to meet you first and make sure you're not a creep. You have to give them an out and inviting a girl to your hotel doesn't do that. There's a good chance that she wants to have sex, but she wants to screen you first. That is what the date is for.

I experimented a lot by being very sexual with girls, exchanging nudes, and writing extremely graphic fantasies. While it was fun, these are the girls who flake the most because they know you want sex and they don't want to feel pressured into it.

On the other side of the coin, I tried just being normal with girls. I would make jokes, talk about things to do in their city and tell them I use Tinder to meet cool people in new cities because I don't like going out alone. These girls are much more likely to meet up because the frame is "fun night out with a tourist" rather than "shady fuck in a stranger's hotel room."

It's really that simple. Women on Tinder are at least partially looking for sex already, so you don't need to verbalize it (or write it). Just be normal and it's pretty easy to get girls to meet up. From there, treat it like a normal date.
