kinda unfortunately yeah. swipes suck cuz one judges people based on images and text, bars and partys suck because, cold approach feels so weird, and asking the one woman thats already feels somewhat close feels odd

This is why I’m switching to people born with wieners. Just kidding. I’m dying alone

This but unironically, I would meet the wrong kind of people through those old-school approaches anyways.

I’ve tried these somewhat when I was in better health. With basically no success. Might as well skip the awkward part…

This is the result of handing dating life off to the capitalist class that uses it to enrich itself. Go to neighborhood potluck or volunteer somewhere to meet people without prejudice. If it doesn’t land you a date then at least you’ll have fun or do something good.

Dating apps are a privacy hellscape. I dread the idea of accidentally making anyone uncomfortable with a cold approach. And my early relationships left me with enough trauma for a while. Still yearn sometimes, but I’m content with just having friends for now.

Need to get the women who do this too and the men in a room together.

I went offgrid in 2020 and haven’t dated since. Do not miss it one bit. Life is peaceful in the forest.

My husband messaged me on OKC with something along the lines of,“hey this is probably just gonna sound crazy but were we stuck in the psych hospital together about a year ago?” Yes. Yes we were. And I was a little bummed I hadn’t gotten his number. That was five years ago and we just celebrated our first wedding anniversary. Fucker is still batshit crazy, but so am I.

People don’t seem to talk in public as much anymore. If people are at the bus stop, they’re on their phone or waiting quietly. Same at the grocery store. This will sound old as hell but I hate it when the grocery store rearranges the soups. Takes me forever to find what I’m looking for. Sometimes I’ll see someone else in front of the soups, looking up and down, looking frustrated. I’ll “yeah i hate it when they move the soups too.” And I’ll usually get a smile or some similar comment back. I guess what I’m trying to say is don’t be afraid to comment about some shared experience you’re having with people in public.

This was my approach and a woman did actually magically appear in my life in 2010. It was on a forum. I DMed a person, whose gender I did not know, that I liked their writing and it snowballed from there. She’s been my wife for 12 years now.

He has pretty eyes and a non boring face. I’d ask him out at the grocery store if he didn’t have a ring.
