Twitter crushes are best victorian erotice novelreal and you probably have one.
You can like, RT, and @ your Twitter crush to you heart's content. But what if they don't fancy you back? In the words of Whitney Houston—how will you know if they really love you?
Well, someone's devised a way to play cupid on Twitter so you can finally find out if your crush reciprocates your affections.

"Follow me, wait till I follow back, send a DM with the handle of your target. I'll only notify both of you if they want you too," reads Twinder's bio.
Ajiboye says he's wanted to build the bot since late 2014, "around the time the Tinder app went wild" as he thought it'd be nice to "combine how Tinder works with Twitter."
The idea kept "building and rebuilding" but didn't come to fruition until a few weeks ago after a friend got in touch. "What we should make is a Twitter bot. If you like someone, DM the bot their handle," wrote Ajiboye's friend. "If the person likes you back and DMs your handle too, we do the match and boom!"

Ajiboye built the bot with his development team, and it works in the same way as his friend described.
"You follow the bot. It automatically follows you back (unless you have a protected account)," says Ajiboye. "You DM the handle of the Twitter user you're interested in. Then it records that entry. If your target ever DMs your name back, it'll notify both of you that there's a match and urge you to DM each other."
Of course, divulging your top-secret crush to a strange Twitter account might make people feel nervous. But, Ajiboye says that there's "nothing to worry about". "The crushes aren't getting exposed ever. Not even by accident," he says. "The only people who have access are the development team."
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
The bot's only been active for a few weeks, and it's gained hundreds of Twitter followers and a "tonne of DMs" in that time.
"It's mostly Nigerians [that follow the bot] because those are the people that follow me and the other developers, but it's slowly finding it's way to other parts of Twitter," says Ajiboye.
It was only a matter of time before Twitter became more romantic!
