If You've Ever Had A Creepy, Shocking, Or Just Plain Weird Dating App Experience, I Want To Hear About It

The shocking documentary further proved that the online dating world is pretty wild — especially after hearing the stories of the women in the film who got exploited by someone they met on a dating app.

Perhaps your online match did or said something super creepy on a date that made you want to run to the nearest exit.
