Mr. Abbreviations

Mr. Abbreviations is definitely from this generation.
With abbreviations like lol, brb, yolo, etc. the younger (are we really younger) generation has a language of our own.
Abbreviations bug me.  I used them when I was 12, but I've grown up and matured.
Lol is just annoying, brb is useless, yolo is just dumb. 
I don't know if this is a common one amongst all of society, or just in the mormon culture, but one that is often used is dtr.  Determine the relationship.
So when I received this message on tinder from  Mr. Abbreviations I wasn't sure what he was trying to say.
Mr. Abbreviations: "dtf"
Me being me, and not up on the new abbreviations I had no idea what he was saying.
But because of "dtr" I was thinking "dtf" meant determine the friendship. 
What can I say, it made sense. 
But at the same time, I was thinking "Well...we're strangers, there is no friendship."
I didn't say anything back, because I didn't know what he was saying.
Then, I did the thing you should never do. 
I googled it.
*Don't google it. It'll save you from gagging*
Needless to say, it was inappropriate.
So I went back into the app and blocked him right quick!

So long Mr. Abbreviations. So long.
