Woman fumes after Hinge match says he had a happy 2024, proving yet again there's no winning on dating apps

Dating apps can be wild, full of unexpected conversations and mismatched personalities. And it can often bring out the worst in people—just like what happened with one Reddit user, u/ajayaggarwal02. The person shared a conversation he had with a Hinge match at the beginning of the year. The exchange, which started as a simple discussion about how 2024 had been for both of them, took an unexpected turn when the woman appeared to take offense at the fact that he had a good year.

The chat began with her asking, "What kind of momentum?" when he mentioned wanting to keep up his progress. He replied, "Everything with work, my studies, and gym went really well in 2024, so just want it to continue." She responded, "Oh interesting. So everything in your life went well last year?" He clarified, "Well I had the usual ups and downs but overall on reflection, I can't complain about the year. How about you, how did 2024 treat you?" She curtly responded, "Oh ok. That's pretty unusual to hear tbh."

She later admitted that she found him "irritating" and had been treating him poorly because of it. She said, "I'm gonna give you some real talk. You've kinda irritated me. However, since you irritated me, I haven't been very nice to you. And you should be spoken to better than that. So the lesson here is: be less annoying and aim higher." Understandably confused, he asked, "Sorry, how have I irritated you?" and "So you were purposely speaking rudely to me?" She replied, "Just by being." When he followed up with "Just by being myself?" she simply responded, "Yh." The bizarre conversation went viral with more than 6.9k upvotes and people were equally confused by her messages as the individual was.

u/ChaosAzeroth asked, "Did she basically go yeah I've been rude sorry about that but really it's your fault? What kind of an actually not taking accountability while pretending to was that?" u/andiwaslikeum noted, "'So the lesson here is to be less annoying and aim higher.' I’m sorry but that is advice and f**** hilarious. I’m sure we’re all annoying in our own way." u/ElGuaco commented, "I worry sometimes I'm being a little bit grumpy or a sour person. This lady makes me feel like a saint. This sub just makes me feel better about myself in general. Because golly there are some miserable people in this world."

u/Ishua747 laughed and said, "Hahaha! This is one of the best I’ve seen. You irritated me. You should be spoken to better than that. Lesson is, be less irritating. Talk about an inability to take responsibility for one’s own actions. ROFL!!!" u/EvilGreebo added, "Nice of her to let you know that you should run away fast so early on." u/SirVeritas79 quipped, "Misery loves MISERY. Not just company. People like that find no happiness but live to make all other manner of things miserable too. Fair warning." u/Vexaton suggested, "I’ve met a few of those. Just tell them they are a horrible person, then ghost and block them. If enough people end up doing that, they might eventually catch on."
