there are a few moments in my life where i am slicker than goose shit. the below story from early this week is one of those... met a woman while out for a run, as we've seen each other running seemingly every day for a week and after passing her 3 times on one run we finally stop and chat for a bit about our mileage and times or whatnot. then i say we should do some runs together. she agrees. then she says "or should we get something to eat?" i say, "well let's do both. let's get brunch. it's food and run is right there in the middle of the word." as i was saying it i was 50/50 on if she would just scoff and walk away shaking her head, but she understood how fantastic of a line that was (OBVIOUSLY)
Is it a sign that the shirt I was wearing when we made this arrangement was this same shade of yellow.
We had an argument this weekend about who is taking who’s name when we get married which prompted us to update each other’s contact info with each other’s last names. We’re making plans to go to Germany for Oktoberfest next year so I’m now scouting out where in the country would be the most meaningful place to propose. I’ve decided I’m going to make our wedding bands myself. So I’m going to get a second job and save up for the metal shop materials.
Went on a Bumble date last night, she seemed really interested in the days leading up to it. We got dinner, had a great conversation about a lot of different things, and overall we seem pretty likeminded. It seemed like her tune changed entirely when it was time to go, and even though she agreed to a second date she seemed much more standoff-ish. Idk maybe I’m paranoid, I thought it went well considering she changed locations at the last minute and was also 10 mins late?
my favourite bumble date story is when I went on my last one before meeting my current girlfriend where the girl, when asked what we were doing that evening, told the wait staff “I’m gonna take him home and fuck him” she then proceeded to get so drunk she couldn’t stand up and I had to put her in an Uber home. We never spoken again
Is the general consensus that Hinge is the best one of these apps? Bumble is cool, Tinder blows, and daddy needs that unhealthy serotonin rush of matching with someone I'll never meet
I’m kinda got a bias rn but yeah I thought Hinge was waaay better than the others. You don’t get as many swipes a day but I was having much better conversations on there. You can start conversations based off of some prompts they choose and it makes breaking the ice a lot easier. I met my girlfriend on there so I didn’t meet a lot of folks from there before I deleted it but I had some pretty interesting talks with people. YMMV though it’s all a shit show good luck out there
I had the most success on OkCupid, even before I met my girlfriend I had at least solid interactions there and okay dates
I live in Boston and if it's anything like other apps they're much better in a packed metropolitan area
