  • Lillian Droniak is a 93-year-old grandma on TikTok with over 8.7 million followers.
  • Her account is filled with dating advice from her life experience including red flags to look out for.

A 93-year-old grandma-turned-TikTok star has gone viral on the platform for posting dating advice in the hopes of lending a helping hand to her single followers.

Lillian Droniak, who goes by grandma_droniak online, has amassed over 8.7 million followers on TikTok since first joining the social media platform in 2019.

From posting "get ready with me," or "GRWM" clips showing off her beauty routine before the first date she's had in 25 years, to sharing multiple ways to avoid an ex, Droniak has amassed a huge following, often receiving millions of views on her dating-related videos.

Speaking to "Good Morning America" recently, Droniak said she feels like the "grandma for the internet" since her account went viral.

"Giving the dating advice because I went through it," she told the outlet. "They are maybe too young to think about it."

"I was bashful when I was young," Droniak added. "And now I'm too much trouble sometimes."

In her most recent TikTok posted on Friday, Droniak shared hilarious advice on how to avoid an ex, including meowing on the phone when they try to call you and telling them you can't talk because you're already on a date.

@grandma_droniak Replying to @kennedybriastar now you know how to avoid your ex #datingadvice #exboyfriend #grandma ♬ original sound - grandma_droniak

The video has over 1.1 million views as of Sunday.

Other ways Droniak advised her followers to take into account when distancing themselves from an ex include blocking their number and hiding in public so they can't recognize you.

In January, Droniak shared what she considers to be her red flags for men, which got over 2.1 million views. Her list included men who lie about their height – "It's ok if you're a short king, we just need to know," she said.

"If he is a water sign, run, run far away," Droniak added. "Don't forget J-names, I'm talking about Jimmy, Jason, Jack. If he doesn't like cats, block him."

"If he golfs, don't trust him," she concluded.

While speaking to "Good Morning America," Droniak said she enjoys creating content. "It makes me feel like I'm young. It makes me feel younger."

"I feel like I've got all these grandchildren," she said, referencing her followers, adding cheekily that "they wish they had a grandma like me."
