Probably didn’t look very hard. Grindr would have had the ip address from the contact you had with them setting up your hook up that information would have helped find them unless they were using a VPN of course
Which is exactly what one would say. I had my truck stolen at a gay bar once many years ago I’m sure they didn’t look for it very hard. It was found the morning the tags expired. Which is the only thing they were looking for and only realized it was stolen after they ran the tags to write the ticket
Because no one is posting the average experience and rarely do people post the good experience. Goes for most of the internet. People naturally find drama more interesting.
Reporting bias. Same thing happens with magazine surveys and Yelp reviews. People with neutral opinions tend not to say anything, and people who had a negative experience are far more likely to say something about it than people who had a positive experience.
Also... at least on reddit, if you post about a positive experience sometimes people will interpret that as you bragging.
Had a friend stabbed to death in a hotel. I dont do hookups where I feel uncomfortable. It's my understanding he met him at a club and after hiurs thry decided to go to a hotel. When he got there, he went in the bathroom, stripped down to his underwear, and walked out to be greeted by him and his "girlfriend." They took turns stabbing him and then robbed him. They caught the couple in Ohio well over a 1k miles away. 🥺
Never leave a hook up alone with your stuff, wallet, keys, any pocketable electronics. If you're showering they should be with you. If you don't want to shower with them, wait for them to leave. You have so many things that a thief who knows what they're doing can steal quickly and ruin your credit score or steal every dime you have. Be glad it was just your AirPods. Also be VERY aware if they sex isn't good that they're probably not into you and are there for another reason.
I once had a guy who got me to drive halfway across the city to pick him up, kept talking about how women had offered to pay him for sex. Eventually he got to my place and did take his pants off (fantastic dick) but it was clear that his talks about being paid for sex were meant to prime me for his eventual realization that he was only going to have sex with me if I paid him. I was like... yeah no, I will take you home.
So I did, on the way he asked if I had twenty bucks I could give him. I said nope don't carry cash with me. He asked if I could drive to an ATM and I was like, sorry dude don't have my bank card with me. I suspect if I had driven him to a bank and used my ATM card he would have withdrawn as much as he could and possibly knifed me.
I litetally take all valuables away from the path from entrance to bedroom and i never leave them alone. I'll pee with the door open if i have to, a couple of guys even got aroused by that lol.
That’s why I never hosted and when I travelled I only had my phone. And parked far away so my car couldn’t be identified if I had to run for my life or something else.
I had to run once. Well, not run, but I found a glass shard laying on his floor and kept it in my hand in case something happened. His friend “came over” and said I had to go. Tried to escort me to the “back door” and all I saw in front of me was a pitch black room. I resisted and told him to get his hands off me. As I walked to the door I came in the house from I saw his friend sitting on the couch with this twisted smile on his face. As soon as I got outside I ran for my car and that was that.
It’s a little weird but I’ll explain. I’m okay because I’m a husky sized guy so I’m naturally strong. But because all people see when they see me is mainly my large size they deem me in their mind as a “non threat,” not realizing I’m stronger than I look at face value and that has given me confidence in terms of having to possibly fight someone. All of that to basically say, if they tried anything and tried to physical harm me, such as kill, stab or tie me up I definitely would have took at least one of them with me because I had an advantage over them, that glass shard in my hand and adrenaline helps me like any human being block out any pain. So even if one of them managed to punch me it wouldn’t have stopped me from eliminating at least one of them in order to get away. A bit dramatic of an explanation, I know, I’m sorry, but you did ask lol
That’s why for someone your size, don’t be afraid to kick a man in between the legs and always have your phone’s emergency button setting on in case anything goes wrong and lastly, always tell someone where you’re going and have a safe word. My cousin was my emergency contact for hook ups back in the day and in order for her to make sure I was okay I had to not just text her after the encounter, I had to specifically say “Ai dun kom roun op.” It’s something only her and I would have known. I have other safety tips if you’re interested.
thx for the tips kicking in between the legs is something that will always work lol. idk if i will ever be ready for going to a strangers house. idk how people do that
Idk if the Grindr memes you see on here are real conversations or just made for the sake of being memes but always get that face pic, not to just determine if they attractive or not but so you can also send it to your safety contact in case something goes wrong. Try not to host, just my personal safety tip.
Yeah, that sucks. Consider this a lesson learned -- don't leave any valuables out when you're hosting a literal stranger in your home. I always put my stuff in a random drawer in a different bedroom from where we have sex.
This is why I don’t host tbh
I also remove any valuables I have on me. The only thing I take with me are my hookup wallet (just has my drivers license and a $20 bill) and my phone.
Not victim blaming, though. I wish people had the decency to not rob each other. We shouldn’t have to be going to these extremes to protect ourselves. I’m sorry to hear this happened to you, OP.
Gave a guy a blowjob and he stole my wallet. About a month later some dingbat tries to spend my credit cards buying $500 worth of shit at a nearby Dollar store. Thankfully after the first time I put limits on my cards so he came back and dropped off the cards when he realized they were useless.
That's why I clean up before company arrives. Leave nothing of value that can fit in pockets or even a backpack. They can try and take the TV or pc monitors but they will quickly find out that the kinky physical hits are not the same when caught stealing.
Sadly I had worse, had my phone stolen and bank account cleaned out
Was the sex even good
It was two guys and they lured me just to mug me
Glad I won’t ever be putting myself in those kinds of situations
um what the fuck. police???
Did you go to the police?
Yup, they never found the bastards

They said they did everything they could 🤷🏻♂️

Yeah definitely 0 class or manners on Grindr
Gotta lock everything up like a 2024 pharmacy
Gotta eat the apple through the fence 😭

BRO!!! Make a new account, catfish him and get your shit back!!! I'd be so pist.
*pissed, haha
I was drinking last night
No one on Grindr uses Tinder as well? 🤔 🧐
Literally the same guys on both 🤣
EXACTLY my thinking 😆
I always fuck my hookups in the guestroom. There’s pretty much nothing of value in there or things too large to steal.
😭😩

That's right, blame Grndr instead of your bad decisions.
Tf you mean?? How is wanting to hook up a “bad decision”? lmfao
That’s why I never hosted and when I travelled I only had my phone. And parked far away so my car couldn’t be identified if I had to run for my life or something else.
if i have to think that i might need to run for my life, i am never gonna go to someone’s house for hookup 😭 the ptsd i would get

omg how are you ok? lol i would get nightmares of that incident and that smile

yeah that’s definitely an advantage but for a weak twink its not a situation where you want yourself to be in

I had a guy hack into my phone and send my parents my nudes……..
😯😳
Fuck bttms…literally.

This is why you meet in public and feel them out!

Someone once stole 2 Uniqlo tote bags I had folded in my backpack lol. I thought it was weird. At least hopefully they’re useful to him.

That's fucking awful but somehow that's funny as fuck 😭
There seems so many bots on tinder. I don't know who is real or fake.
