shame about those bot responses, tinder rollin'

Number of people in my area has exploded recently, still only like two people over 65% though.

more or less bums me out but since I guess this is where we are at as a society I should at least attempt to participate

So I realize that just by existing in this world I have somehow compromised my principles before a just and righteous God whom loves the world so much that He would sacrifice His only Son so that we may live but if you are a lonely person that has a hard time getting along in this sick sad universe them you should at least give something like this a try before giving it up totally and resigning yourself to being the weird guy who lives at the end of the block and they had to use three dumpsters to clean out the place no one had seen anything like it they remembered him from English class and the convenience store always coffee black and a boston creme

there is a woman with KY in her username who keeps visiting my profile

little does she know that forksclovetofu has utterly wrecked any possible romance

good times good times

I matched with someone on OKC but when I took a closer look at her profile I discovered that she's into "a capella covers of rap songs with vulgar lyrics"

:(

95% of divorce cases in the uk involve one party discovering that the other is secretly into a capella covers of rap songs with vulgar lyrics

she probably thinks it's whimsical

sorry for this potential deal-breaker, 龜 :(

I don't know if I can date anyone who's into rap music ironically

I hear you there

lol dayo

I would agree if "ironically" modified "date"

strongly considering redoing my bio using nothing but fall lyrics

you won't find anything more ridiculous than this new profile

initial message should def. be "hey there fuckface"

lol

haha

too much romantic here

message for ya! message for ya!

:D

Ah wait someone already did that in response to same picture pierre menard to thread

I spent an evidently not-small amount of time organizing my profile so that it lists "things I like" in ascending order of sentence length, and then lists "things I dislike" in descending order, so that the two lists are symmetrical. I don't know if this comes off as bored and pathetic, hyper-OCD crazy, or else looks cool?

I'm also starting to question my technique of hiding profiles I'm not interested in. While hiding people I decidedly don't intend to message or hypothetically respond to makes browsing matches a zillion times easier, I just checked and have apparently hid over 2500 profiles (!) which seems pretty sad in a pathetic and bored, hyper-OCD way. Ugliness and awful personality aside, I think this may also explain why I never get any messages or profile views. Ugh, how am I so bad at using this site?

they should sell an a-list service of filtering out ppl who lived in brooklyn for x years but now are 'back'

just came across a profile that was just too suspiciously long. dumped it into Word for a count: just shy of 20k words

what are people even doing out there.

daaaaamn

I'm back out there. Reopened an account I closed last year, really need to clean it the hell up. You'd think my self-presentation would be a little more stable across less than a year but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hopefully some stories for the thread denizens soon

update: deleted all the vague boring semi-twee personal shit and changed my username

Not to Upright Mammal, I hope.

it's good

museum of the poor souls in purgatory

so you signed up

promising 5.5 hour first date, now living the cliche of who contacts whom next. Feeling like it should be him as he messed up timing of date 1 and then start time of rescheduled date 1.

It SHOULD be but he will doubtless mess that up too so save yourself the anxiety of waiting.

yeeeeeah maybe on Wednesday or so? date was Friday.

So. Date was Friday and he suggested a second date at the end of it, specifically, coffee and a walk. I texted him on Monday (did not hold out any longer despite above bravado) to suggest a location. Now it is Wednesday.

All his previous communications about timing screw-ups have been very effusive and apologetic, so it seems a bit out of character to just disappear. There's always the Lost Phone Possibility, but nah. He has (of course) looked at OKC since Friday, so he hasn't fallen under a bus. Is it even possible to just straight up not notice a text?

I guess it's more likely that he is a gaslighting fool. If I haven't heard by the weekend, would it be too demeaning to write and say 'I'm taking the silence as 'I'm no longer interested', correct?'

yeah don't write that

yeah :/ almost impossible to get the tone right.

Technology enables people to be new and exciting types of asshole, expressing any emotion about it is a sign of weakness. Welcome to our shitty future.

ljubljana - make your own plans for the w/end if you can, assuming the worse. If he gets back you can always put him back a week later.

Yeah, I'll definitely make my own plans in the meantime. I'm just wondering whether it's even possible that people actually manage to miss texts.

may be possible but essentially no

No.

Also this person can always log on via a laptop and email something.

a fool imo
