WHAT IS MATCHING MISTAKES?
╰┈➤ ••Mason Franklin wasn’t into dating apps, but his best friend, Natalia, talked him into trying one called TINTER.
One night, he swiped, matched with a cute guy, and then got bombarded with cringey messages. Just as he was about to unmatch, he got a final text:
“I’M SO SORRY, MY ROOMMATE SENT ALL OF THOSE!!!”
Fast forward to a wild party, a blackout night, and Mason waking up next to… the same guy from the app. And no memory of how he got there.••
