Why we hate Whatsapp for getting to know couples
We understand that Whatsapp is a convenient tool for chatting to people but the more we have used it to get to know couples the more we hate it. We have been meaning to put thoughts to paper and have finally gotten around to doing it. Here's why we hate it with some real messages to demonstrate our point.
Firstly, there is the spelling.
In this day and age of predictive text do you really need to say "Hw r u"? Even worse is when they say "Hw r use". We don't mind Lol and some abbreviations but sometimes it gets a bit much
03/05/2015 1:08 pm: Them: We a col couple ,Nsubs and use?
Asking for pics in the first 5 lines
Them: Hi guday u contact me regarding our add as a couple
 Us: Hi there
 Them: We looking for couple to have fun with
 Us: Same here
 Us: How old are you guys?
 Them: We r 30 and 32
 Them: Is there a pic may b
Whatsapp messages at all hours of the day
We realise that this is the connected generation but is it okay to message people at 6am or 11pm at night and expect an immediate response?

Good laugh, but under no circumstances, before we met and knew you better, would we give our cell phone to anyone. That's the reason why adm so strict on putting mail or phone numbers in your profile description or any message

Unfortunately there are some couples who refuse to chat if it's not on WhatsApp. Their loss

I had to laugh, nice way of showing how whatsup works, and the above is the reason I totally refuse to use whatsup. I prefer a decent phone conversation or a personal meeting.

It might be a good laugh, but for some it is a bit of a turnoff when ones expectations of a fun conversation ends... "wif 1 tawking using baby tawk" For me personally it is unattractive, but I do appreciate their personalities being portrayed from their messages.

I enjoy for it's ease of use. However I totally agree, the lack of spelling and grammar, the idiots that try to fake you out and all the rest, it sometimes make you want to revisit the possibility. I also have BBM for android and that seems to be a better option, as I can just get rid of the people I don't want to talk to and they don't have my number to pester me. Thanks for sharing guys!

Plus of course you never know if they're posting their number or that of someone else.

I totally understand where so many people are coming from when it comes to the whole thing. We once tried to make people we connected with use KIK as its a platform that uses usernames opposed to cell numbers. For some odd reason people thought we were just trying to be difficult. The last thing any of us need is a stalker right. Then we we tried for installing 2 whatsapps on a single device so we could have one naughty number. That didn't work so we just gave up I guess. I do believe that has a vital role in getting to know people. I just wish people were willing to try Apps that are less intrusive.

Mike, that's classic.  And true.  Makes me want to "facebook" them... i.e. introduce their face to a dictionary.

 I totally agree. Whatsapp is kinda personal for me, friends and family use it too. For meeting or talking to the SH community I would suggest to download BBM on iOS or Android as you do not need to give your phone number out to anyone. Just give your BBM pin. If the chat dies or does not work out just delete the contact.

We had a very smooth "Single" guy chat with us, made plans to meet. He had to cancel due to work commitments.

As his cell number was connected to his facebook, his profile popped up with his smilling face next to his happy wife and kids.

I messaged him and asked if his wife was single as well, got a reply using every swearword in the book, and blocked us on SH.
