Abstract
Kendra*, senior in agricultural business, finally downloaded Tinder after constant pestering from her friends. Within a couple of weeks of downloading the app, Kendra had met two guys. While her first date went well, her second date out was anything but a romantic night out.She should’ve known right away that he was a little creepy. “He told me he was looking for whatever was out there. I should have known that as my first clue of, this guy’s kind of a creeper,” Kendra says.
*Names were changed to protect the identities of those involved.
