"An 8-9 in what sense? His body is probably slightly leaner than the average guy at my college gym."
He literally has the body of an Olympic athlete.

Assuming that the swimmer is an 8 (without his Olympic achievements being known), his online SMV like most men, is at least two notches lower than his actual SMV in real life. OKC women find 80% of online men below average in SMV. The swimmer is below average online. Since Tinder was monetised, it is going the way of traditional dating sites (average women, single mothers, older woman hook ups).
Conversely, women's SMV increases by at least a notch and perhaps 2 when in the online SMP, depending on the angle, make-up and sexuality shown in the pictures.
So what has happened is that a "7" has ignored a "6" in the online sphere but that the swimmer has gone on to meet a genuine 8 whom he probably met in real life.
Still, it would be interesting to see who female gold medalists are dating and if their men must be fellow Olympians, much richer or if any Olympian women have monkey-branched from non-Olympian husbands and boyfriends when they were living in the athletes' village.

Who the fuck calls anyone beautiful with seconds of a first interaction? He lost it within his first six words. Don't call any girl beautiful. They hear it enough with every stupid facebook profile pic update or lame instagram post. If it doesn't set you apart from the rest of the desperate and wretched simps, it will at least give a small dose of humbleness.
Just a small anecdote. I was out with my two best friends and three female acquaintances. One of the girls was talking about gaining weight - obviously fishing for compliments. My two idiot friends were aghast at her self-deprecation and told her how great she looked, guessing her weight to be in the low 100s. It was all very juvenile. I was shooting pool, trying to ignore stupid, drunken conversation when my opinion was asked. I intentionally guessed 20 lbs over the obvious weight. My buddies did the obligatory "ohhhh!!!" and she the obligatory "omg, nooooooo. Realllly??" I shrugged and kept playing pool. In the following days the girl made playful remarks about me calling her fat and eventually asked if I was interested some music concert. In the month since, she's been a pretty steady bang. And pretty cool overall, despite the lame shit test she pulled with my friends. Did it all stem from me not automatically glorifying her appearance? Possibly. We were decent enough friends before and her attention/attractive only seemed to amplify after my put down. It's hard to tell, but I doubt she would have been intrigued if I fell in line with the "you're gorgeous" trope.
Moral of the story? Don't call anyone except your wife or girlfriend or....daughter(?) beautiful. It's pathetic.

This isn't that hard to believe, in reality if you are ever on these sites, you see it or experience it daily. I think it's a little deeper than what we let onto on this thread. That is, there is a part of the online thing that I've always thought that no one takes seriously. The person isn't right in front of you, no one really trusts the pictures, if you are a guy you just hope that she's that hot, etc.
This thread is a testament to the "I would never approach in real life at least 80% of those I swipe on" and women don't really get this to a grand degree, so they just go with the delusional, entertainment flow of swiping and thinking they are in some way wanted or desired. We know it couldn't be further from the truth. It's all a wonder for, a fantasy for hookup (which sometimes happens) but shouldn't be that surprising when it happens, or doesn't. If they hamster banging someone that doesn't "count", why wouldn't girls hamster that this Olympian "really wanted me"?
Tricking girls ("game") is contingent on their irrationality, so it's a double edged sword. So much of it is fantasy, it should hardly be surprising.
