We've all been there. Screengrabbing a conversation and then sending it to the person we were about to talk about. That, or we've got very close to doing it.

Now, one guy has vowed to delete Tinder after his date sent him a screengrab of his own message.

As any user of a smartphone will attest, nine times out of ten a message is screenshotted for all the wrong reasons, and unfortunately, this was the case for Harrison, who is thought to be from Leeds, England, after he followed up with a Tinder date.

In the message to "rachel tinder", he wrote: "Hey, I had a really nice time last night" before adding, "would love to see you again sometime?"

But instead of replying with a polite "thanks but no thanks" message, or agreeing to a second date, Rachel sent Harrison a screenshot of his own message accompanied by "LMAO" (internet slang for 'laughing my a** off').

Harrison subsequently shared a screenshot of the exchange on Twitter that was simply captioned: "im deleting tinder".

Realizing her mistake, Rachel followed up by writing: "oh my god I'm so sorry".

At the time of writing, the post has received over a quarter of a million likes and 24.5K retweets.

Explaining the incident in all its humiliating glory, one Twitter user wrote: "She took of a screenshot of his message with the intention of sending it to a friend to laugh at him, hence the 'LMAO'. But she sent it to him by mistake. Ouch."

It's not knowing whether Harrison replied to the fail, and other Twitter users went on to point out the fact that Rachel hadn't even saved his number.

However, some joked that it wasn't as bad as it looked.

One Twitter user sarcastically wrote: "She was so excited and proud to get your text that she wanted to share it with close friends. Nothing to worry about."

Better luck next time, Harrison. May the Tinder gods smile on you.

In other Tinder news, a single bodybuilder's Tinder profile has ignited controversy online, earning labels such as "racist" and "misogynistic" after its details surfaced on social media.

The uproar began when screenshots of the man's profile were posted on Twitter by a user named Zoe, hailing from Essex, United Kingdom.

Unimpressed by the dating prospect presented to her, she shared the screenshots along with the caption, "I thought I'd give Tinder a go but honestly, it's fully put me off dating."

The profile picture of the 27-year-old bachelor, taken in a full-length mirror, shows him shirtless and peculiarly, with his sweatpants around his ankles.

However, it was his bio, rather than his questionable photo, that sparked all of the heated discussions. The bodybuilder boldly stated his three dating rules, beginning with, "I have 3 rules... Rule 1, I don't want to be step dad so no kids unless u have just one, I want my OWN thanks."

His following rules raised more eyebrows.

"Rules 2, if you date black boys or think about it don't even text me," he declared, escalating the controversy surrounding his profile. The final rule stated, "Rule 3, I don't want a time waster or someone who is a bum... go make your own money u lazy f***s."

While this mysterious man may have hoped his rules would entice prospective matches, the backlash on social media suggests that his tactic may not have been quite as successful as he might have hoped.
