Convos With Men That Will Make You Want To Stay Single Forever

If there’s one thing to turn you off of dating forever, it’s the following conversations that were had with real living breathing men.

Some of them are so painful they might as well be a modern-day tragedy.

Bye Felipe Shares The Worst Of The Worst

The Instagram account @ByeFelipe was created in 2014 and accepts submissions from people (mostly women) who have seen the worst of the worst on dating apps and elsewhere.

What started as a place for women to anonymously share the most offensive messages they receive now serves to remind us all that single might be the way to stay.

Roses Are Red, Romance Is Dead

If this is his definition of poetry, someone needs to send this man back to school.

Everyone knows better than to finish “Roses are red” with something so unoriginal and cringey—everyone except this guy.

He’s Waving A Giant Red Flag

This woman dodged a total self-admitted creep within fewer than 10 messages’ worth of conversation.

He quite literally spelled out his intentions for her and they were absolutely not good ones.

Being Honest Is Not The Best Policy

To the woman who politely said that she’s “not really interested in talking” anymore, we’re so sorry you spent so much time entertaining this jerk.

Text: I find you unattractive and woefully boring. I figured I'd be nice and give you a shot because you said you were interested in getting in shape but I wouldn't wanna take a

He won’t feel better saying those things but he will be bitter forever and probably single.

“Wow Tell Me More About How Much You Hate Women”

There’s always a catch. In this case, it was that the guy was a misogynistic jerk.

Text message: When a beautiful woman matches with me on tinder, there's always a catch. Stripper, boyfriend, psycho, catfish, sl**, and this repeated instance...a Mum

At least he self-sabotaged and wrote it out for her before she had to find out the hard way in person.

This Non-Conversation Is Straight Comedy

It’s hard to say why guys on dating apps get so offended when they don’t get an immediate response, it’s not like their match owes them anything.

Text: hey beautiful. May god ignore u like u ignored my greetings

This man tried to get God involved when he was feeling single and sulky.

Tbh, Nobody Asked For Your Opinion

There’s nothing quite like an unsolicited insult to get the conversation going.

Text message: Tbh you're not hot enough for the attitude you have imo.

Thankfully, this woman was far wittier than her tragic Tinder match and hit him back with a burn that’s going to require some aloe.

It’s Always A Matthew

If every Matthew could try to do slightly better for the sake of all Matthews everywhere, they could probably reclaim their name.

Text message exchange: I left a BJ at yours the other day, can I come over and get it?

But right now, it’s almost always associated with a weirdo like this. Go away, Matt.

Who Wouldn’t Want To See A Duck?

This dude’s typo tried to save him from being a creep but he insisted on the creepiness and corrected himself.

Text: Wanna see my duck?

Hot tip: Way more women want to see a picture of an actual duck.

This Guy Is Reading Between Lines That Don’t Exist

Sometimes a question is so downright dumb that you can’t tell if the man you’re talking to is being serious or trolling.

Text: wait, wait, wait hold on here chica. Ur not for hookups yet all ur pictures say please come kiss me up my legs and neck and make me feel sexy as hell. Please explain.

Unfortunately, in far too many instances, he’s being 100% serious.

Fragile Male Ego

At least this guy knows he’s an insecure loser with a fragile ego problem.

Text: I was prob drunk and calling you a slut because you hadn't responded yet. My male ego is fragile after one to many beers

But it’s clear that knowing you’re a jerk does not stop you from being one. There are a lot of layers to this buffoonery.

What A Terrible Question To Ask Someone

Do men genuinely believe that women weigh their breasts?! Someone, please help us understand where these toxic misconceptions come from.

All we’ll say is that they weigh far more than the male ego ever could.

Send This Man Back To School To Learn Some Manners

When a woman has to say “well that escalated quickly,” she usually means “that got way too uncomfortable way too fast.”

On the flip side, when a guy says, “I’m just very forward,” he’s really just saying, “I’m rude and don’t care that it bugs you.”

Nobody Was Talking To You At All, David

The most obvious sign of a fragile ego is when a man gets rejected and immediately insults the woman’s body.

This girl knew how to laugh it off with a joke but she deserves so much better than trash like this in her DMs!

This Is Just Painful For Everyebody Everywhere

If a man has to ask what “consent” means, it’s time to run for the hills.

It’s highly possible that he has never spoken with an actual woman in real life and would not know how to because what the heck?!

See You Never, Rob

Sometimes, you just have to hit them with the cold hard truth.

Rob was definitely not ready for this response, but he deserved it, and also crossed himself off the potential matches list with his very first message. Adios!

Tell Me You Have No Female Friends Without Telling Me

What’s worse than making a woman feel unsafe? We’re not sure, but shaming a woman for putting her safety first is a close second.

Text screen shot: Sucks to be so scared oh well stay safe lol so funny how some are so scared to try things.

This guy knows nothing about what it means to be a woman in society and he’s weirdly bragging about it.

Hey, Little Guy!

When in doubt, respond with a joke and a GIF that’s sure to shut him up.

Screen shot of text message: 9 inches. Think you can take it??? I dunno... never dated anyone 62 inches shorter than me. Dory GIF

This guy took the wrong approach and fell flat on his face, only to look up and see Dory making fun of him. We love to see it.

“He Said Creepily”

This is a four-part short story exchanged in text messages. There’s a rise and fall of action, a narrator, and an explosive ending.

Too bad it was at the expense of the poor woman who had to answer these messages.

If It’s A Numbers Game, This Dude Is Losing

If dating online really is a numbers game, he’s admitting that he’s truly terrible at the game.

Text: It's a numbers game with a 30% success rate, don't take it personal lol maybe e-harmony? Byeee

Nobody wants to date someone with those stats or those goals. Good luck shooting your next shot, buddy. We have a feeling you won’t even come close to the net.
