I am so fucking angry right now. STOP finding women you see on dating apps on their personal social media profiles, ESPECIALLY if you haven’t connected and there are ZERO identifiers in their profiles. I got these and let my curiosity get the better of me. VIDEOS IN REPLIES.

this is my bumble profile btw, pretty normal shit imo

UPDATE: This is not the first time Ryan Andrews has done this. He pulled the same thing with @aly_sf in summer of 2021. Shared with permission.

Are there any other women in Southwestern Ontario/the GTA this man has invaded and harassed in this way? Please dm me if it has!

Image
Image
Image
Do not reply here, please dm me. This thread is still muted for me so I won’t see it. 💖
UPDATE #2:

Confirmed this has happened to two additional women, one in 2016 and one in 2017. I will not be sharing the details of the 2016 encounter to protect her identity, safety, and peace, but you can find the mention of the 2017 encounter here from @hotlana:
UPDATE #3:

Shared with permission. This encounter with Ryan happened in November 2021 and can be seen here.

If there are any other women who have been approached by this man, please DM me. Don’t reply here, this thread is muted, but my DMs are open.

Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #4:

Another story from 2016, shared with permission. We’re going back at least seven years with this behaviour, folks.
UPDATE #5:

Anonymously sharing another story from a few years ago.
Image
Image
UPDATE #6:

Shared with permission. From a couple months ago. He found this girl’s friend on ig after interacting with them for under a minute a few months ago. Innocuous on its own, but part of the pattern of behaviour.
Image
Image
UPDATE #7 is perhaps the most insidious so far. This dates back to a decade ago and involves a woman who was only 20/21 at the time.

He slapped her and told her she liked it, not giving her the space to decide for herself how she felt. He assaulted her.

How many others?

Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #8:

Another woman’s encounter with him on Hinge. This includes his profile.

I want to clarify that they did match and he has not technically done anything *wrong* here, however it still made her uncomfortable enough to record and send to her friends.
UPDATE #9:

This woman matched with Ryan Andrews on Hinge a couple of months ago. This is how it went, in her words. Shared with permission, keeping it anonymous.

If you have a personal story to share, my DMs are open to you. 💖
Image
Image
AN UPDATE ON #5:
Image
Image
UPDATE #10: 🚨🚨🚨

Ryan Andrews is 36. He found out where a 20 year old girl he’d seen on Bumble worked, called her workplace to ask after her 3-4 times, and left a review. Her brothers had to walk her home for a while for her to feel safe.

As always, shared with permission.


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #11:

Apparently, his real name is Ryan Konopud and he’s been behaving this way since before the GTA, in Alberta. Not sharing any further details to protect this person, but you can see what they’ve said below.
Image
Image
UPDATE #12:

This one is from 2018 and will take a couple tweets. It’s bulky. Shared with permission.


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #12 CONT:

Remaining screenshots. Screen recording in next tweet!


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #12 CONT:

The screen recordings of very similar voice memos to what I received, down to the Disney princess line and big feet line. They just keep coming, y’all.

Women are out here in the goddamn trenches.

UPDATE #13:

Two separate women in 2015/2016. Shared with permission, no additional context.
Image
Image
UPDATE #14:

From a musician in the GTA who, by default, runs in the same circuits as Ryan Andrew Konopud. Shared anonymously and with permission. Image
UPDATE #15:

This woman went on a single date with him 10 years ago. He yelled at her in a public restaurant after she called him out on him manipulating his ex-girlfriend. Shared anonymously with permission. Image
@bumble @Tinder @hinge This man should not have access to your dating apps. This is the original tweet, and you can see the experiences of other women who have come forward I’ve shared in the replies (currently there are 15 updates). Let’s protect women. 💖
@bumble @Tinder @hinge @hinge @Tinder Care to weigh in? There are screenshots and recordings of Ryan using Hinge to conduct this same behaviour, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s also used/using Tinder. Please help us.
UPDATE #16:

Ryan messaged this woman a year before she saw it and spent that entire year reacting to her stories on IG.

April 2019. There were so many moments in these recordings that were identical and/or made me die inside. I’ll let y’all hear for yourselves. SCREAMING. 😵‍💫💀


@ratxgurl Can confirm.
UPDATE #17:

This woman was originally approached by Ryan Andrews the same way I was, but had the misfortune of running into him at the park. When she called him on using the word “retard,” he angrily told her she was a woke feminist and ranted about the patriarchy. Also, ducks. Image
UPDATE #18:

This one comes from a woman who actually met with Ryan Andrews in fall of 2022. He tried to defend Andrew Tate (lol). When she broke things off, he continued to call and text her for months afterward trying to regain access to her.
Image
Image
UPDATE #19:

This woman used to work somewhere Ryan Andrews played. He harassed her in her workplace and then insulted her via Facebook messenger, telling her to “hit the gym” in order to “get some quality dick,” assuming he meant his since he’s got such big feet. Shared anon.


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #20 (1/2):

This woman’s fiancé reached out to me with her permission to share her experience with him in 2017, then again in 2019. He uses the N word in a bid to be funny and insists he’s not a home-wrecker while also pushing to still be in her life after she’s said no.


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #20 2/2:

Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #21 1/2:

Banned from a bar due to literally trying to force a woman who he knew was in a relationship into giving him her number. He also named his guitar “Rory” after the main character in Gilmore Girls and I’m upset bc that’s my go-to comfort show. >:(


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #21 2/2:

Did I mention Ryan Andrews also brought the racist jokes when he found out this person was Hispanic?

Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #22 1/2:

This happened back in December 2021. She was a legend and I wish I had said “Who the fuck is this?” instead.

Anyway, it’s the same playbook. Someone update the goddamn spreadsheet! Buckle up for voice memos in part two of this update.


Image
Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #22 2/2:

It’s all bad. It’s all so, so bad. From implying she’s an object he wouldn’t kick out of bed to casually implying people who don’t like pizza and beer are pedophiles, there is once again nothing redeeming here.

UPDATE #23 1/2:

More. How many women have this same story? How many women experienced worse?

I can’t decide which snippet I love/hate most: “Maybe I’ll just order a pizza and masturbate because women are fuckin’ dumb” or “Am I gonna get Me Too’d?”


UPDATE #23 2/2:

Or maybe it’s “I hate that this might sound like a line” or even “I’m at my sexual peak…please don’t write an article about this.”

UPDATE #24:

This woman agreed to go on a date with Ryan Andrews in 2018. When she set a boundary around sex because he’d been making jokes about pregnancy and STDs, he got angry. She tried to cut ties and he would leave her voicemails saying he’d seen her.

Image
Image
Image
UPDATE #25:

This was passed along by a friend, whose friend encountered Ryan Andrews 10 years ago when she was 19. He would have been 26. He went back and forth between anger and adoration, and harassed her to the point she quit her job because she felt unsafe.

I should have started a thread for these, so I’ll link the other ✨💖positive💖✨ message tweets I’ve received below and continue sharing here. Amidst the hard conversations and heaviness, it’s nice to have somewhere to look to be reminded this is meaningful and doing good. Image

This has been a wild few days. Complaining about shitty men on Twitter is part of what I do here, along with tweeting about caffeine, powerlifting, my pals + cats, shows, @HonestHeartCo, and whatever silly little thoughts that pop into my head. But this is more than a weird DM.
Women with stories about Ryan Andrews continue to reach out, some of whose stories I’ve shared in the thread with permission, others who prefer to remain private. I never expected this to be more than another complain about men tweet, but there’s no putting this back in the box.
If you have a story of an interaction with this man, know you have my unwavering support and my DMs are open to you. Whether you want to share publicly or not, you have a safe space with me to talk. My heart goes out to every woman who has ever dealt with anyone like him, too.
