Imagine being so committed to the dating game and finding love that you swiped more than two million times on Tinder

A story that has been getting a lot of attention online reveals how a man using Tinder swiped 2,020,459 times, matched 2,053 times, chatted 1,269 times and remarkably, after all that, only went on one date in five years.

The story, which was first shared on Reddit, showed the insights into the man's profile. Hayden, a 26-year-old guy who enjoys fishing.

His bio was very insightful, but also a bit polarising. 

"If I'm not home, you can find me... at the lake. If you’re not trying to go fishing, I don’t want it. My idea of a vacation is going to the desert and looking for snakes for a week. I may or may not currently own 33 snakes," reports Times Now News.

People are invested in his story, and many wanted to know who the girl is who eventually agreed to go on a date with Hayden. It was interesting to see how people judged him for his unique and honest profile. 

While his passion for snakes might not have been inviting, his idea of fun didn't add to his appeal. 

After all, going fishing or to the desert in search of snakes isn't the most popular hobby for other twenty-something people in the dating sphere.
