Do any of you think of looking at a person's Pinterest page, to get an idea if you might want to date this person?

Asked by Kardamom (33525points) July 14th, 2014

If you really want to know what your potential date is into, maybe you’d be better off looking at their Pinterest page, instead of their fake dating site profile.

Everything you need to know is on their Pinterest page. I think Pinterest says more about what we like than any online dating site. By the way (hubbies more than wives, because females seem to use this site more than males) you can figure out what your wives/girlfriends actually want/like without having to ask them or try to figure it out on your own.

I think all of the dating sites are a waste of time, Pinterest will show you what your potential date/lovematch actually likes.

Now, if only we could get a few more straight males to join.

Guys, did you know that you can save your best construction materials ideas on Pinterest?

One of my relatives asked last year, “How do you know what your wife wants for Christmas? Answer: Consult her Pinterest pages. Yep.

That’s such a great idea, although truthfully I’ve never seen a guy with a pinterest. But I would dearly love to know before dating someone if they’re on Reddit. Seeing their posts would be so informative.

You know what’s another super sneaky way to find out what they want? Ask the person to help you pick out a gift for someone else in your life. Like, if it’s your girlfriend, ask her to help you pick out something for your sister. Then remember her likes and dislikes, and use it to find her a gift when you’re shopping alone.

I think the single women with fantasy wedding and future children boards might be a bit intimidating, but I would absolutely love to see more guys on pinterest. I found a project that my husband might like to make for our toddler while I was surfing the web on his phone… so I posted it to his pinterest page (which he had created but never used). It’s still his only pin.

YES!

I went out with a particular woman for the first time last Friday, so I finally knew her whole name. We’ve exchanged a few emails since, and are going out to dinner Thursday, and the movies over the weekend.

And last night I looked her up on google and found she had a pinterest page. And yes, I liked seeing what she is interested in beyond what we discussed face to face.
