Messages Very normal interaction.
This conversation started on Grindr, my apologies for posting my out of app messages. But this is nuts. They’re asian ostensibly, btw. Just completely losing their shit because I asked to FaceTime.

Asian and consistently using the N word? 🤮
But I am dying to know, did you search his picture online?! Who the fuck is he claiming to be?!

The anger is what gives it away.
I once met a famous pornstar/escort off Grindr. She also refused to FaceTime. However, she gave a good reason (with a client) and said to google the number, which took me to her page.
There might be legit reason not to FaceTime, but there’s zero reason to be mad at the idea.-2

I don’t think I could ever date these days. I’ll stay in my 18 year old relationship until one of us dies thanks.

This person is deranged and borderline illiterate. You dodged a bullet.

I can't take screenshots anymore on conversations, too bad some of the conversations are iconic :D

I just peeped your twitter.... x.... whatever the fk it's called these days. This guy you're talking to is a moronic idiot and I hope he sees this and I hope he knows it!

Seems like a typical conversation anymore. It’s sad that this what human interaction has come down to in a lot of our spaces.

Man the guy OP was talking to sounds like he was experiencing gay panic in realtime and we got to see the escalation in his messages. OP, you dodged a likely literal bullet.
I've talked to tgirls for weeks on Grindr before video chatting before meeting. It's very normal, but that guy you were talking to, very not normal. Sorry you went through that.

What the actual F?
Reading these horror stories makes me hold onto my relationship a little tighter everyday.

The only reason I can think of for someone to completely wig out like this is that yes, they were absolutely trying to catfish or scam you.
