Tinder matches with girls in social circle?

[Hue]

What's your guys' rule of thumb when it comes to matching on Tinder with someone you already know, and someone that's loosely associated with your group of friends?

This has happened two or three times to me, and I either match and joke about it if I know them well enough, or just underhandedly flirt.
I just matched with a girl that I've been attracted to for a while, and once upon a time I missed a huge escalation window with her like 2 years ago.

It's a risk to try something because knowing most girls they'll tell their friends "OMG I just matched with so and so on Tinder lol" and then the whole thing gets weighed in on socially. Especially because I've been getting mixed reviews with a lot of girls in the social groups I have a couple toes in.

It's got to be mutual for them to know so if you are interested swipe 'em right. At least you will know there is some interest back on their part.

If you match, then take it as a good sign and don't waste any time contacting them. If you have contact info off of Tinder or what ever "Match game" use that (not the messaging in the App) to just straight up ask them out without mentioning Tinder.

If they don't match you, don't mention it. Continue as if you never saw them.
