I joined the dating app Raya and it was a disaster – that’s why you shouldn’t follow in my footsteps

A Canadian model shared a shocking date story on TikTok about why people shouldn’t use the dating app Raya.

Celeste Aria claims that she went on a few dates with a man that didn’t work out, but her encounter with him a year later at an exclusive restaurant scared her so much that she never went back.

“I beg you not to join Raya,” Celeste pleaded with her followers last Friday.

She continued: “Men motivated enough to take on Raya are fucking crazy – sociopaths, egomaniacs… They’re just there to chase.”

Canadian model Celeste Aria shared reasons why women need to be “careful” when signing up for Raya and why she regrets using the app

Celeste has appeared in fashion shows and represented Gucci, Balenciaga and Alessandro Michele. She is also pursuing a career in music and released the single Pretty Sleeper on September 1st

Celeste told viewers that she joined Raya in 2021 after filling out an application without a recommendation.

She then focused on the women who use the app to discuss and target the men who use the app.

She suggested, “Think about the psychology of a man joining Raya.”

“Find out about the app, apply or ask a friend to recommend it, pay for it, and they’ve probably been paying for it for more than a few months.”

Celeste said the man’s eyebrows were extremely raised when he saw her a year after they dated

The man scared her and she didn’t want to approach him or acknowledge him. She hasn’t been to that restaurant since the incident

Celeste tried and failed at a possible relationship with a man she matched with on Raya.

However, when the two spotted each other after breaking up, the man wasn’t exactly keen to see her.

She explained: “He’s standing on the couch… and he opens his eyeballs really wide.”

The man stared at her for “30 full minutes,” which terrified Celeste.

She continued: “I tried not to acknowledge him because I didn’t want him to approach me and my friends. “He did his best to basically scare me and seem strange in public spaces.”

Celeste knew the man belonged to the establishment where she had seen him and decided never to return because she was “rightfully afraid.”

Celeste remains active on Instagram and TikTok to further her modeling and music careers. She currently has the most followers on TikTok

She has traveled worldwide for photo shoots and fashion shows and is currently signed to Tank Agency and SYSTEM Agency – representing their locations in Milan, Barcelona and Berlin

Raya was initially founded in 2015 as a celebrity dating app before becoming a platform also used for networking and social discovery

She also admitted, “I’m also a little scared of the other people I matched with because they got kind of weird, moody and creepy on Instagram.”

“I felt so insecure and all the guys were so crazy and so sociopathic – just be careful with their ladies.”

Raya is a private membership community that started as a dating app but has since evolved into a platform for networking and social discovery.

It was launched in 2015 and can be used on iPhones and iPads for $9.99 per month.

To join Raya, you must fill out an application and have an impressive social media presence.
