I tried to pull using Love Island quotes on Tinder to see if it actually works in the real world

On paper they are all my type


With over 1.5 million viewers every night, it’s no wonder that Love Island is the show of the summer. You’ve got bums, boobs, sexy challenges, grafting, snogging, cracking on and so much more – what else could you want? But how far removed from society are they in their luxury villa in the middle of nowhere in Majorca?

To test it out, I chatted up guys on Tinder – admittedly probably not “reality” as such, but close enough – using only quotes from Love Island. And by quotes, I mean ridiculous chat up lines that genuinely should never ever work.

Oh, and spoiler alert: most of them were said by Chris. But who’s really surprised?

Being mean to keep them keen really does work

Smooth

Same tbh

I have never seen anyone so excited by a carrot metaphor

Definitely a fuckboy

Wow.

I’m not sure whether to be more turned on or scared
