This Couple Took Two Full Years To Have A Conversation On Tinder, So The App Decided To Give Them A Little Push
I’ve always been terrible about responding to Tinder messages. Like, atrociously horrible. If you ever get a response from me, it’ll probably be a few days (or weeks) after your original message. Sorry?
But I am not alone, it turns out. Josh Avsec and Michelle Arendas basically founded their whole Tinder-relationship off of being terrible communicators, which gives hope to terrible texters like me.
Josh uploaded the conversation to Twitter, where Michelle happened to find it.
Hahahaha one day I'm going to meet this girl and it's going to be epic. Look at the dates of our tinder texts. pic.twitter.com/DASQK4c5cX

sorry I'd reply but I need to give it a few months !

Wow😊 This is single handedly the coolest thing twitter has ever done for me. Be sure to check your DMs sometime at the end of August.

But Michelle wasn’t the only one who saw the screenshots — someone at Tinder happened upon it as well and decided to finally give these two love birds the push they needed.
It’s time you got together IRL. You have 24 hrs to decide the city you want to have your first date in and we’ll send you there! @mch_rnd https://t.co/7r2JQtcxKC

After a long debate over your unbelievably generous offer, our dream first-date would be in Hawaii. Meet you in Maui?? @mch_rnd

Aloha! We're sending you to Maui but you can't take two years to pack your bags! 🏖️

This is like some sort of dream. A date in Hawaii is far more epic than I could have ever imagined. Thank you so much! https://t.co/gQD8QffLKq

OK, so I’m jealous, but whatever. It’s ~fate~, obviously.

In the end, Tinder taught us the most important lesson:
Good things come to those who wait ⌛️

Or something like that. I guess we all have a reason to re-download Tinder again?
