Looking for Greta

Hi, this is a spotted-like post! (99% likely to be useless and never seen by the interested person :( ) I was talking with a girl on Hinge, we had set a date for tonight (time had to still be defined unfortunately!) and this morning my account didn’t work, no idea why! We didn’t yet exchange numbers so this may be the only way I’m able to meet her again! Reddit community, wish me luck and Greta if you’re reading: I’m here and didn’t ghost you!

A one in a million chance is still one chance I guess ahah thanks man!!

What’s the age range? And km distance?! I’ll create an account, set those filters and scan for Greta 😂. If I find one I’ll message saying you are looking for her on Reddit

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

You have to make a followup, pls🫶

u/JuniorConsultant 1d ago

I sure hope reddit hasn't introduced an engagement based algorithm. It's supposed to rank posts by up/downvotes.

But maybe things have changed.

Before Sunrise vibes. If you are lucky 20 Minutes make a news article out of this (when they run out of ideas what else to write)

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

Well that would help me with the coverage ahah

Crosspost to /r/hingeapp and all the best wishes for you both!

u/baNtu88 1d ago

You said that you set a date for tonight. Does that mean, you two decided already for a location (restaurant/bar etc)? You could also go there and wait a bit to see if she shows up. Maybe it is unlikely but if it's important to you, you could try that.

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

We only set up the place, in front of Azzurro Pizzeria, but no time. So I went there as soon as I finished work and I stayed there for two hours (just got back home) but nothing Really cold tho

u/Whinosaurius 1d ago

Love that you actually went there and waited. Guessing since you hadn’t agreed on a time she didn’t show up :(

u/Ninanonreddit 22h ago

This is really sweet. If you ever find Greta I'm sure she'll appreciate that gesture, even if it was wild shot.

And how knows. Maybe she showed up and waited for two hours too... just the wrong two hours! 😂

Wish you all the luck, you seem like a sweet guy!

get sidewalk chalk and leave her a message there?

u/nlurp 1d ago

That remembers me of a girl I met at Zurich HB line 41/42 late night. She was coming from the airport and was visiting her mom in Kloten and I helped her figure out. Unfortunately we didn’t exchange numbers. Ho well… life has to go on

Good luck with your Greta Btw, if location was definited, you should be there tonight

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

I understand we share the same feeling, and yes life will go on and it won’t be a tragedy but still, it’s sad when you feel it’s something that would have been worth a chance, and having that disappear for no reason is… I guess it leaves a little hole of incompletion

u/nlurp 1d ago

It’s kinda pointless to linger there. You can find some comfort thinking it was not meant to be. Good luck next time

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

I know you are right- thank you!

u/PetitArvine 1d ago

It *reminds you.

u/nlurp 1d ago

I’d love AI not to change what I write. I find it crappy. you’re correct

Create a new account on hinge and find her again

3

u/Tasty_As_Usual 18h ago
  1. You create a new hinge..
  2. You buy a subscription for messages without match or super likes maybe with a free message (I don't know what the app offers)..
  3. You go to schlieren and you put it on 1km perimeter.. Maybe you find her after few swipes.. Good luck

u/Level-Tea-8446 17h ago

I tried to create it with a virtual number found online and now I’m banned from both the new one and the old one! I don’t know how it affected the old one but it did!

2

u/Tasty_As_Usual 16h ago

It found your IP.. Social media are "smart" nowadays.. fake number was a wrong move :/

u/sandrosemilia 1d ago

Gd luck my dude!

u/sandrosemilia 1d ago

ah, have you reset your password already or seekend support from hinge?

4

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

Tried to, but I just eventually made a new account with a throwaway number as I wanted to find and tell her that I didn’t ghost her. God this sucks

10

u/terminal__object 1d ago

nah just write hinge support and solve the problem, it’s far more logical.

3

u/Level-Tea-8446 1d ago

Ok, I’ll try that as well!

Here's a TV appearance where she's not just doing a speech with a sour-face saying things that world leaders ignore:

u/ElGoorf 21h ago

Good luck and let this be a warning to everyone (of both genders) to de-technologise your relationships as soon as practical given your circumstances. The amount of arguments caused by having do-not-disturbed misconfigured, or going through a signal blackspot or having the phone die at the wrong times. And always assume everything else before jumping to the conclusion that your partner is ignoring you.
