In this day and age, one of the most popular ways to meet and date people is through online dating. While online dating started on websites, it has now evolved into apps that are convenient and efficient. While this streamlined method of meeting people is easy and can be fun, it can also be somewhat frightening and uncomfortable. For whatever reason, people seem more confident and bold online, which makes for some pretty interesting first messages, should people match with one another.

Sometimes they're just cringeworthy, overused pickup lines, other times they are straight-up vile messages that no one should ever even think of sending to a stranger. But with apps like Tinder it becomes sort of normal. Though many people do find love on these apps, it isn't easy. To share in the pain that others feel, here are 25 terrible times people had while navigating the online dating world.
