I'm back again with another rendition of adventures in online dating. It has been about three weeks since my last article on the subject, so I thought I'd give an update. I have met a few very nice people, however, as someone who has anxiety, it can get to be a lot. Sometimes texting three different people at the same time can be detrimental to one's mental health. So while all of this is fun and games, always remember to do what is best for you and to take a break. Now that the PSA is out of the way, let us get into it.
This week I decided to try and tinder and it is something else. The first thing I noticed is that people are BOLD. Some are straight up and just want to hook up, some are there to mess with people, and there's is a very small percent who might want a relationship. A lot of conversations go like this,
"insert pick-up line"
"haha really funny"
"thanks, so you looking to ****"
*block
It's a rough world out there. Then there's the few who start conversations with you and want to know everything about you. Then BAM, they ask you for a picture and they ruin it. Word of advice, not a great way to get someone to want to talk to you more. Then there is my personal favorite, adding someone on snap and then you just stop talking to each other. My views on my story have never been higher.
To the few nice guys, thank you, you give me faith in humanity. However, that''s just two people so it still is like a 2% chance. Next week I will be back after asking other people their stories and opinions on online dating! Until next time, happy dating and be safe!!
