Would anyone else be really creeped out if a stranger wanted to get married and stalked them on Tinder?

You would love to get married to him eventually? Is that what you are saying...??
I also have to agree that the first sentence sounds odd...

No.. don't know this guy! Would want to get married eventually - as an abstraction.

There's also no guarantee he used his real Facebook profile to sign up for Tinder. I created a secondary Facebook profile that isn't searchable and contains no info or images. I then add in my pics and info through the Tinder app, but I still have to have it linked to some Facebook account.
So yes, it's looking for a needle in a haystack, with no guarantee that the specific needle you are looking for will ever show up.
NP, Thanks for the tips.

There are millions of "great, available" men in the world.
Hint: Tinder can show some of them to you!

Okay, so he is some big shot or celebrity type, which is why you can't ask your "friends of friends" to set you up.
Yes?
Yes?

Just put his age as your range and limit "miles away" and you should be able to find him.

This is all very helpful. I just didn't know anything at all about Tinder. Clearly not the way to go to meet this dude. THanks, everyone.

Not the PP, but yes, this is weird to understand. If friends of friends know him, they can set you up. Let's say he somehow shows up on Tinder - there's no guarantee he will swipe right on you, so again, there's no guarantee you will have a shot at him on there either. If you can't get your friends of friends to set you up, there's a really good chance you won't end up magically finding each other and swiping right on each other on Tinder. Also, fwiw, Tinder is mainly a hook up app. Not a would love to marry this f#@k buddy eventually app. Your approach sounds pretty bats#!t crazy.

Are you actually looking for your husband or boyfriend? Because otherwise, this seems odd. How are you interested in him if you have no chance of ever running into him in person?

Is this possible? I am interested in one person, and I have heard he is on Tinder. I have no other way of meeting him socially. I have never been on dating apps, including Tinder. Thought I would put out a quick question whether it is possible to sign up on Tinder and "find" a specific person. Or is it pretty anonymous and looking for a needle in a haystack? Thanks.
