Dating is hard in the digital world but this Tinder tale has taken it to another level. Although, Tinder could be a convenient platform to find your ‘the one’, but be cautious what you enroll for in the process. Recently, 200 men got duped into a Tinder first date by an Instagram model identified as Natasha Aponte.
This woman managed to invite dozens of men at Union square and pulled off the live swipe as the men stood there agape. One of her dates took to Twitter and narrated the entire incident and undoubtedly it left everyone stunned.
On Sunday, the man who Gothamist identified as Spencer made the epic tale public and even urged the readers to ‘get some popcorn’. Well, this 21st-century dating story is actually worth grabbing a tub of popcorn.

“I am about to tell you an epic tale about subterfuge, dating in the 21st century and the fall of human civilisation. This actually happened to me and it could happen to you too. Get some popcorn. *Thread*,” Spencer wrote.
“So a few weeks ago I was on the Tinder machine shopping my soul around and I match with a very attractive young lady. No bio. Fairly innocuous. I text her n we make small talk abt work for a bit then she goes, ‘actually, I have this huge presentation Im workin on for my job, would you be offended if I got back to you in like a week or two when Ive got more free time? Youre cute and I want to meet you Im just too busy rn’,” he added.

So a few weeks ago I was on the Tinder machine shopping my soul around and I match with a very attractive young lady. No bio. Fairly innocuous.

Natasha then contacts him after ghosting around for two weeks and invites Spencer for a date at an event, where her friend was apparently DJing. “My friend is DJing near Union square around 6 tomorrow I was wondering if you wanted to go for a bit then we could go get drinks after and see what happens,” she wrote.
I thought well that’s an overly elaborate way to ghost someone. I say “lol I wouldn’t be offended, I totally get it. Hit me up when you’re free”

She says “thank you, I was worried you would think I was trying to blow you off haha but for sure I’ll text you in like a week, I’m excited” in my head I’m like sssssssuuuuurrrreeee I respond “😊”

Two weeks pass I completely forget about her then I remember and go back to tinder and I can’t find the conversation. 🧐 I think well that’s weird she deleted her tinder but I take it as… overly elaborate ghosting methods

Then yesterday I get a text “HEY IM FINALLY FREE LMAO… my friend is DJing near Union square around 6 tomorrow I was wondering if you wanted to go for a bit then we could go get drinks after and see what happens”

On reaching the spot, the man witnesses the most bizarre Tinder date, Apote goes on the stage with two bodyguards and reveals that she actually has invited all the men for a date.
I make my way to Union Square. Eat a hot dog and look over by this open lot by 17th Ave and there is a stage and a DJ and about 100 ppl and cameras and shit and I think well this is some random ass Manhattan shit.

She texts me “hey I’m running a little late but just meet me by the stage then we can go” I wasn’t gonna stand in front of the fucking stage so I stand off to the side a bit
— миша (@bvdhai) August 19, 2018
Eventually I see a girl moving towards backstage with two enormous bodyguards in sunglasses and realise it’s her and I’m thinking WHAT THINE FUCKETH IS GOING ON
— миша (@bvdhai) August 19, 2018
I stay back and assess the situation and I’m like fuck I’mma stay right where I am til she texts me. The DJ eventually stops playing and she gets on the stage and I’m so fucking confused but think well I guess she’s a social media personality or some shit
— миша (@bvdhai) August 19, 2018
She gets the mic and is like thanks for coming out I bet you’re all wondering what this is about and I’m like yeah what the fuck is this about
— миша (@bvdhai) August 19, 2018
Are you shaken? Wait for it, then she goes on to deliver a ‘Hunger games’ speech and sets the criterion to date her.
Then she says I’ve invited you all here for a chance to go on a date with me and proceeds to give a hunger games speech about what its gonna take to date her

ALL THE DUDES THERE SHE FOUND ON TINDER AND TEXTED THEM THE SAME SHIT
— миша (@bvdhai) August 19, 2018
At that point I am genuinely amazed at the fallopian fortitude this girl possesses. This is top 10 greatest finesse of all time. Dudes actually stayed and played.

Surprisingly, some of her so-called dates went on for the live swipe but Spencer left the place. Expressing his feelings about the whammy event he concludes by saying,” VANITY WILL BE THE DEMISE OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION. DON’T GET GOT. THE END.”
I TRUST NO ONE. I TRUST NOTHING ANYMORE. VANITY WILL BE THE DEMISE OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION. DON’T GET GOT. THE END.
