Fox's Jesse Watters is the last person anyone should be asking for dating tips, but the hosts on this Tuesday's The Five decided to go there anyway.

Here's the discussion about dating apps at the close of the show where apparently none of Watters' cohosts thought there was anything creepy about asking a guy who dumped his wife and kids for a 25-year-old coworker for his thoughts on the topic:

FOWLER: Greg, what happened just going to a bar and meeting someone?

GUTFELD: It's interesting. There aren't that many bars anymore, and dating apps have removed the risk from social interaction, so you don't build the muscles of charm and charisma that you used to have when you were meeting people.

When you're on apps, it's all about the superficial, height, salary, age. So, you know, I'm not six foot tall, but as a 9.7, I got that extra 0.3 by working on my charm and charisma.

But to your point about the kombucha, if you're going to do things on a date, you got to make sure that you choose something you're good at, that you can show off at.

FOWLER: So like freehand glassblowing, Jesse?

WATTERS: You got me, Richard. The first time you got me. I have a serious question because I'm not a dating app guy. Is that when you just pick a girl and she comes right over?

FOWLER: No. No, that's when you have to swipe.

WATTERS: I have another question. Is, are you allowed to put your salary on your dating app profile?

PIRRO: Why would you want to do that? (laughter) Say no more, Jesse. Say no more.

WATTERS: No, but Greg is right.

I agree with everything Greg says about the muscle memory. You got to stay limber out there when you're dating because then you just, you can get flaccid with your reflexes and all of a sudden some guy steals your girl and you're in the bathroom.

Makes you wonder if Watters is worried about still "staying limber" now that he's moved onto wife #2.
