A woman went on the worst first date she’s ever had after a man revealed a shocking detail about his dating life. 

Chaosangel420 (@chaosangel420) posted a storytime about a date in Washington, D.C., which went sour. In it, she described a few of the ways she and her Hinge date completely misaligned. She realized very quickly he wasn’t interested in a long-term relationship, despite putting it on his profile. Then he said something off-putting that gave her the ick so badly that she didn’t want to drive him home. 

As of this writing, the content creator’s video has more than one million views.

What red flags first appeared?

The first sketchy thing that she noticed was that he asked if she wanted to park at his apartment. 

 ”I asked all my girlfriends. I was like, ‘Do you think this is sketchy that he’s asking me to park at his apartment? Cause it’s giving you wanna invite me up later, and I’m not giving that.’ So after talking to the girls, I was like, ‘You know what? I’m just gonna drive and park on the street, and we can meet at the front.’”

This wasn’t a big deal at first, but she noticed the difference in how they approached the situation. When she arrived, everything was normal. She learned he didn’t drink, so they ordered mocktails and started chatting. They seemed to align on most things, and the conversation was flowing. 

That’s when he said something that raised another red flag. “ I’m so sorry, like I’m having such a good time, but I like just have to tell you that your voice reminds me of someone that I work with that I hate,” the man said. 

The content creator didn’t know how to reply. She apologized, but she seemingly found the comment unnecessary. “ What the [expletive] am I supposed to say to that? So I’m like, ‘Oh, like, Sorry, um, should I shut the [expletive] up?’ … He’s like, ‘Oh, no, no, like I’m having a good time,’” Chaosangel420 said. 

The conversation eventually switched to another topic.

What was the shocking comment?

The man asked her what she was looking for, and she turned the question toward him. His answer was a third red flag. “ Yeah, I like… I’m Muslim, I don’t drink, I don’t smoke but, you know, I like to [expletive],” Chaosangel420 recalled the man saying. 

She asked the man what he thought he was going to get out of the encounter, and he explained that he was hoping to hook up. He then tried to ask whether she was willing to come over. 

When she asked why he had “long-term relationship” selected on his Hinge profile, the man said that it was because if a woman who was religiously and culturally aligned happened to match with him, he would pursue a relationship with her. 

Then he said something shocking. “He, like, proceeded to tell me that, like, he’s [expletive], like, three girls in one day before,” Chaosangel420 said. The man showed her his Hinge and told her he had so many matches that he couldn’t keep up with them. She got the “ick” quickly. 

Eventually, he asked whether or not they could go back to his place, and she told him no. He asked if she would be willing to drive him back to his apartment, and she said no again.

“He was like, ‘at least you have a funny story to tell your roommate.’ Go [expletive] yourself,” Chaosangel420 said.

The anti-dating app movement 

Commenters quickly added their thoughts about the Hinge date. More than a few viewers said that they have had similar experiences to Chaosangel420’s. They have since deleted dating apps entirely.

An AppsFlyer survey covered by Newsweek in 2024 found that roughly 65% of Gen Z individuals who used dating apps deleted them within a month. Other publications, such as Business Insider, have described large numbers of dating app users leaving the platforms after having “terrible experiences” and seeing “oversaturation.”

Viewers, too, recommended a switch away from the platforms. 

One commenter said, “My dad told me ‘putting yourself on a dating app is like putting yourself on clearance’ & now It’s all I tell myself when I think about downloading an app.” 

Another commenter added, “All dating apps should shut down and go back to meeting people organically.”

Other viewers who have continued using dating apps say they have established specific rules for going on dates. “I don’t meet for drinks, I don’t go to parks, I don’t go to apartments/houses or let them pick me up, and I don’t meet for dates after sunset. The first meeting is always coffee or something where I can walk out at the first red flag,” one viewer said.

Chaosangel420 said she would adopt a similar approach in the future.

Russia’s latest large-scale assault on Kyiv has damaged one of the most important religious and cultural landmarks in Eastern Christianity, sparking international condemnation and renewed calls for stronger support for Ukraine’s air defenses. During a massive overnight barrage on June 15, Russian missiles and drones struck the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra complex, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the spiritual heart of Ukrainian Orthodox Christianity. The attack ignited a major fire at the Dormition Cathedral, burning through approximately 800 square meters of the cathedral’s roof and causing significant damage to a monument whose history stretches back nearly 1,000 years. Ukrainian officials accused Russia of deliberately targeting the historic site, while Moscow denied responsibility.

The Dormition Cathedral, also known as the Assumption Cathedral, is the historic mother church of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra monastery complex and has served as one of the most important spiritual centers in Eastern Europe since the 11th century. Construction began in 1073 under Saint Theodosius of Kyiv with financial support from Prince Sviatoslav II of Kyiv. Byzantine craftsmen from Constantinople helped build and decorate the church, which was consecrated in 1089. Throughout its history, the cathedral has survived earthquakes, Mongol invasions, Crimean Tatar raids, devastating fires, Soviet persecution and wartime destruction. The current structure was reconstructed after Ukraine regained independence and was reconsecrated in 2000, restoring one of the country’s most revered religious monuments.

The cathedral occupies a central place in Ukrainian religious and national identity. Following a catastrophic fire in 1718, it was rebuilt in the Ukrainian Baroque style between 1722 and 1729, creating the golden-domed silhouette that has become synonymous with the Kyiv skyline. The broader Kyiv Pechersk Lavra complex, founded in the 11th century, is considered one of the holiest sites in Orthodox Christianity and contains centuries of religious relics, historic burials and monastic caves. UNESCO has repeatedly expressed concern about threats to the site during the war, describing the Lavra as part of a cultural heritage complex of exceptional global significance.

President Volodymyr Zelensky strongly condemned the strike and personally visited the damaged cathedral alongside Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko. In a statement following the attack, Zelensky said: «A Russian strike on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra set the Dormition Cathedral on fire – a church whose history dates back to the 11th century. And this is one of Russia’s most serious crimes against Christian culture to date.» He also used the incident to appeal directly to leaders gathering for the G7 summit in France, stating: «It is very important that there be a response from the G7 countries, which are now gathering for their summit – and that this response be decisive and substantive: more pressure on the aggressor and more support for Ukraine’s air defence, especially anti-ballistic capabilities.»

Ukrainian authorities insist the cathedral was deliberately targeted. According to officials, security investigators determined that two Russian Geran-2 and Shahed attack drones struck the district housing both the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra and the nearby Mystetskyi Arsenal. Ukrainian officials have publicly released images of drone wreckage recovered from the cathedral’s burned roof as evidence supporting their conclusion. The attack formed part of a much broader overnight assault involving more than 70 missiles and over 600 drones launched against targets across Ukraine. The barrage killed civilians in Kyiv and other cities while causing widespread destruction to residential neighborhoods, cultural institutions and infrastructure.

Russia’s Defense Ministry rejected responsibility for the damage, claiming instead that the cathedral was struck by a malfunctioning Ukrainian Patriot air-defense missile. Ukrainian authorities and security services dismissed the allegation, arguing that physical evidence collected at the scene directly links the damage to Russian drones recovered from the site. The dispute has further intensified the broader debate over attacks on cultural heritage during the war. For Ukraine, the strike on the Dormition Cathedral represents more than damage to a building. Officials describe it as an attack on a symbol of Ukrainian identity, religious history and cultural continuity that has survived nearly a millennium of invasions, occupations and political upheaval. International observers have compared the significance of the cathedral to some of the most important religious monuments in Europe, underscoring the symbolic impact of the attack.
