Every day I’m reminded how terrible pof is. Don’t know why I try to use it. I removed my photos because I don’t see any use in the app, and I’m still getting messages! Doesn’t seem like a bot because some have more than one photo and they’re “normal” photos.
My ex came from a family that has money. Wouldn’t call them “rich” but both his parents had really good jobs, so they could afford stuff like owning a condo in Hawaii and travel all the time. Also his parents would buy him expensive gifts etc. I always kinda felt insecure a bit because I didn’t grow up remotely close to that or had the same opportunities he did. When I think about it he kinda gave me shit at times (like he partly didn’t want to be with me anymore because I didn’t want to “better my career” which was completely false and very hurtful for him to say. I just struggle far more when it comes to jobs than him. Made me feel worthless. Didn’t help that my mother use to always imply that all I’m good for is fast food jobs and I’m not capable of anything else). So for me I guess it was a problem for him. Or at least that’s how it felt. Like because of how he grew up, having a partner that makes a lot of money or a decent amount seemed like a big factor. And he didn’t want to wait around anymore for me to get a better job (despiste the fact that I apply places and never get interviews). Almost seemed like he was embarrassed to be with someone that didn’t have a “good paying job”
Feel like I'm striking out on hinge pretty badly. I think its starting to affect my mood. I wanted to at least say I've tried online dating, but I was always afraid that it would be detrimental to my mental state. Starting to think I was right.
I think I'm finally ready to get back in the dating scene but downloading dating apps sounds like hell. How do you make an interesting profile that works?
Hung out with a girl tonight and I got this message from her when I got home. I’m honestly really glad she felt that because I felt the same way too.
You deserve someone who communicates effectively. Four days of silence, in my opinion, is a red flag.
