    Oh great and now a message from an ex. Apparently this is just my week for being hounded by Spanish-speaking men I have no desire to talk to.

    At least your ex acknowledges your existence?

    Or would you prefer the sweet embrace of denial?

    In this particular case - actually in almost all cases - I wluld prefer my exes never spoke to, looked at, or wrote to me again.

    Mandatory Eternal Sunshining for all exes.

    Oh no.
    They should remember me forever.

    Oh, okay. In that case you need a voidfish. Feed it just your contact information. That way they'll remember you but if they ever think of trying to contact you, your info will come up as just static.

    Edit: I mean one of the (several) reasons this person is definitively an ex is that at one point he started ignoring me completely so, you know. Fuck off.

    Tell them you are getting a new phone and give them my number. I will provide them with all the pictures of my naked butthole they could ever desire, and probably even a few they don't.

    4th date tonight. When do you stop calling it a date? I think there's going to be cheesecake and John Wick. I've bought chocolate just in case there's no cheesecake.

    I have no idea. I dunno if anything in particular my girl and I have done together could be considered a classical "Date".

    Although maybe all of it is?

    Now I am in deep thought!

    A date can be literally anything, if you want it to be. As long as you're doing something together, it can count.

    John Wick is really really good

    The start of the film is very sad though

    I still gotta look for someplace to get a cute couple pairs of socks with birds on em as part of a joke we had made.

    Hard part of buying your girlfriend socks as a gift without giving it away? Asking about what size socks she wears!

    Well, considering how much the size of feet can vary, yeah. Socks for a size 7 foot sure as hell aren't gonna fit a size 14 and vice-versa.

    They follow a "small", "medium", "large" format though.

    Y'all ever get that thing when you just kind of want to casually browse Tinder, maybe feel a brief sense of validation due to a match

    And then people start messaging you and you're like

    "Okay yes this is nice and theoretically what I'm here for everything but man I just wanted to make some catty decisions about other people"

    I used to go to book stores with my best friend and do something kind of similar. He's got a masters in writing and will eventually be a novelist whenever he admits he's done with his book.

    We'd be mean about ridiculous fantasy and literature set-ups based on the backs of books and browsing passages, but then sometimes one of us would eventually run across a good book and that was vaguely disappointing.

    When you lose count I think! Or actually I guess never, but it stops feeling like a whole thing.

    For sock sizes, it's basically just men's and women.

    He told me last week that he'd never seen it. I don't think my face hid my shock and disappointment.

    I haven't seen it either since a dog dies in it, apparently.

    As long as its a planned event or it requires going somewhere, its a date! I dont personally count staying in, but some people might.

    My girlfriend and I stopped counting dates when we started making plans for multiple days in advance (Saturday this restaurant, Monday movie and ice cream, etc)

    I think we stopped after our first pizza and Netflix night, and have subsequently gone back to the restaurant we had our first date at which felt like we'd moved past always having to go someplace new.

    Never stop counting dates. End each and every one with a "tick mark" tattoo so you don't lose track.

    John Wick is a movie about dealing with loss and grief by shooting like a hundred dudes

  • TallahasseerielTallahasseeriel Registered User regular
    I think you might be low balling how many dudes get shot.

    tinder is rarely an exercise in validation, more desperation for me

    i get matches and dates from it which has been good but when you swipe right 250 times and get 1-2 matches it is not very confidence inducing

    but i've had a few successes so it's okay!

    I think when I had tinder I must have swiped right what must have been like, 4 or 5 hundred times over the course of a few months.

    Never got a single match.

    So for me it was an exercise in self loathing I guess! :rotate:

    I never get matches on Tinder when I actually want to

    But if I open it up because I'm bored at work, I'll have someone asking me out on a date in half an hour's time

    Well, I hope you don't take this wrong... But you are also one of the most attractive men I've ever seen a picture of? Or at least you're more photogenic than myself.

    Tinder just seems like a real horror show.

    Same with OKCupid.

    And PlentyoFish.

    And dating.

    What a goddamn hellscape.
