Men from Tinder that message girls they have no matches with?

After setting up my new phone, I have made my telephones Tinder account. Coming from a previous account where I had a lot of matches from, I noticed they are all gone. I was looking through the app when I got a message from a guy I don’t have a match with. It was asking if I was working today? Coming to the conclusion that he had left a message on a profile he didn’t match with before. <br><br>Most of the guys I have matched with seem to message me from the chatbox instead of the match section. I have had two other messages from other guys I have no matches with. <br><br>This is my question. Are men able to message ANYONE on Tinder or not just their matches? How do you view your matches and non-matches in one section. I can’t see any difference in the “chatbox” and the “Matches” tab. I am just wondering if Tinder has changed something since I joined up again.
