The 5 Fort Collins Guys You’ll Match With on Tinder
With “hookups only” being the new slogan for the 21st Century dating culture, being in your twenties and in a college town is a Tinder utopia. Fort Collins has its wide variety of “eligible bachelors,” but there are a few specific types you’re bound to match with. So as you embark on the pool of men in your 10-mile radius, be prepared to run into these five type of guys:
1. Frat Bro
Expect this guy to be sporting his Vineyard Vines shirt, chubby shorts, and boat shoes. Good luck trying to find which guy he is though, because in every picture he’s with his frat bros standing in front of a “Saturdays are for the Boys” flag or with three guys shotgunning Busch Light. If you have the chance of going on a date with this guy, don’t be surprised when he pulls out his Juul mid-conversation. He will ask you to his date-dash at Sundance.
2. Ski Bum
You’ll spend 15 minutes squinting at your phone trying to see what he looks like through his ski gear. He’ll try and hook up with you in the summit lodge. The deal-breaker is what you answer to the question: “ski or board?” His “send it” attitude will totally draw you in, but it will get old when all he talks about is fresh pow.
3. Stoner
His “420 friendly” vibes will be said not only in his bio but his pictures. The first one being him and his smoke cloud, the next being him on a mountain staring off into the distance with his snapback and joint. He likes to think of himself as super spiritual and will try and have a deep conversation with you. Your date will be a smoke sesh in his car, then a late night run to Cheba Hut, and he will definitely bring his vape.
4. Patagonia Man
The dead giveaway for this outdoorsy kinda guy is his manbun. His bio will tell you he’s “just looking for someone to go on adventures with.” He will most likely wear his Chacos on your date and your date will be at Horsetooth. You’ll pretend to be into the outdoors as much as he is, but trust me… you can’t keep up with this guy on a hike… don’t do it.
5. Aspiring DJ
He’ll match with you for the sole purpose of plugging his SoundCloud. When he says he’s in the studio he really means he’s in his room with his MacBook. His only “gigs” have been at 1501 Restaubar or at a frat party. He WILL ask you to a rave.
