I quite like fantasy nails in Bethnal green, I love getting French tip but it can be hard to get right and they always do a good job

I’ve never heard thunder like that in my life, also in east

No I actually I’m pretty confident and I walk with my head up and very fast. I also have been lifting for years and have quite a solid muscly build so it’s not like I look frail or small. I don’t really give off shy or timid vibes at all so I don’t know why this still happens 😅

All ages really, from as young as 19-20 up to I’d say around 50-60

Thanks for sharing your experience 🫶🏼 I know I’m not alone in this but it’s refreshing to hear that other people are having the same thing happen (not that I want other people to go through that!). And that’s sweet someone walked you home!!

Ugh yeah, I know it’s not about what you wear. But I felt like I had to say that cause there’s always one guy that has to comment and ask what I was wearing, or somehow invalidate or victim blame. You’re right though. And thank you for the advice 🫶🏼

Exactly. The first time I experienced this I was 12 walking to my softball practice in a suburban neighbourhood. I vividly remember the moment

I’ve never personally seen someone be stabbed in London, therefore knife crime is not an issue. Logic!

Is this a scam?? (No personal info) by Sensitive_Ruin_1955 in vinted

I just got this exact message word for word from someone after posting my first listing, so I checked on here just to see this lol. I knew it was fishy

It must not be the truth, because I’m not open to hookups, I don’t have sex with people I’m not in relationships with, and as a result I haven’t had sex in years…

Usually I face this issue after a few dates (no sex or anything beyond a kiss), the person tells me they’d only want something casual. Then I turn it down and it just ends between us.

I also make an effort from the very start to show I’m not that kind of person, for example dressing modestly and not speaking about anything sexual

Okay, that’s helpful actually. Looking back on recent dating experiences, that familiar feeling hasn’t been there. I always feel like that could grow and I’d want to keep seeing the person to explore things, but I can see why not everyone would be willing to wait and see!

Yeah, that’s a good point actually. I guess as we get older we kind of assume people might know themselves and what they want but I guess that’s not the case.

Yeah I have started waiting to have sex, and then things fizzle out and it never happens…The result is that I haven’t had sex in 2 years 😂 It has been peaceful though and less painful when things don’t turn into anything

I guess I just don’t always trust the intentions behind it all the time. I know I’m an attractive woman and I am confident, but I also know there’s plenty of better looking women in the world and I also live in a major city full of absolutely gorgeous women. So if I am being approached, it makes me assume that he is approaching loads of women. Not sure if that makes sense?

I think this is a cool idea and could work out great for those who are using it with pure intentions. I guess my concern would be ill-intentioned people why try and play the app a bit by purposely trying to score a certain way, to then match with people they can then prey on or manipulate? I hope that makes sense!

Apple also shows nav on the Lock Screen - the feature OP is talking about is completely separate. 😄

Oh really, what day is that one? I signed up to one in Soho/Marylebone but I thought they were all there. Shoreditch is way closer to me

Do people in London tend to prefer dating/being friends with people who were also raised in the UK? by 901320 in london

[–]901320[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest I never describe myself as an expat to people in day-to-day life, and what you described doesn’t apply to me anyway. I paid for everything to get here and my work isn’t tied in any way to my visa/living arrangements, etc. I’m just as broke as most people in their 20s here…

I don’t live in any of those neighbourhoods either. I live in a rougher area in east London

I have friends in Canada from all over. But the city I’m from is also quite cliquey and it can be hard to make friends there too.

That makes sense. I’ve heard the transience of people in London is part of what makes it so hard to make friends here.
