What’s Your Dealbreaker This World Cup?

Melissa/ Leave a Comment/ 1016463

When the World Cup arrives to a sports bar near you, it’s easily the best thing to happen to dating since the smart phone. Something about the impassioned cheering and sweaty team pride makes it a magical month indeed — one that just seems to brim with sexual and romantic promise, am I right? Amen.

Sexy soccer players aside, your time is far too precious to waste on the wrong match. It’s like showing up to watch Costa Rica versus Brazil only to find a cricket game on TV. Big bummer.

That’s why Mesh created Dealbreakers. All you have to do is let us know your dating non-negotiables (we all have them, don’t be shy) and we’ll do the dirty work and filter out anyone who doesn’t meet your criteria.

To give this a real time World Cup example, John might secretly be Ann Coulter’s number one fan. Marjorie may find this quirky when she learns it on date three and the two will travel down a blissful road thumbing through her books on the weekends. On the flipside, Kelly might hang out with John only to horrifyingly find If Democrats Had Any Brains They’d Be Republicans peaking out of his bag and have to leave the date immediately. Looks like Kelly may have identified one of her dating dealbreakers.

A first date is a first date. But a first date where you can rest assured the object of your affection isn’t secretly harboring one of your dealbreakers is that much more sweet. Don’t you agree?

After all, we at Mesh want you to score. But while some dating apps out there are only interested in a barrage of possible shots (many times pointless misfires and misguided punts) we want to give your game a little more guidance, so you can win the entire tournament, not just a lousy goal.
