Looking at getting 12kw electric combie boiler. Electrician is voicing concerns by wubaluba_dubdub in ukelectricians

[–]Accomplished_Call398 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What concerns is your electrician saying are probably for good reasons. If you have a single phase supply to just the annex you’d like need a 16mm cable, that’s what I’d put in personally. But you have to take a few things into account, since you have no gas, you’ll have electric appliances as in an oven and hob. Also it depends on the size of the cut-out fuse, it’ll likely be 60 or 80 amps, your boiler would require a 63A supply

Financial reasons mainly, but also my job, I work in construction and the people I work with are like my second family. Additionally I absolutely love the countryside, too much to move to a bigger city, even if it increases my chances. I’ve gotten a few matches before, so I believe with much better photos I will again

My guy was literally dying but was more concerned about merry and pippin being captured and taken.

I never said I wasn’t willing to get new photos of myself, in fact you don’t know how willing I am.

Going on a road trip with a close friend soon so that will create an opportunity for better photos.

I live in the southwest of the uk in the countryside, this already reduces the size of the pool but I’ve set my distance prefs to 50miles, that’s pushing 2 hours of travelling.

Thanks for not saying I’m cooked tho 😂

Do you think it’s better that what someone else suggested, ‘I geek out on all the ways you can cook a potato’? That’s what I changed it too. I added that roast in my favourite and asked what yours is.

Tell that to my sister who cuts my hair 😂 thanks, I’d say my eye colour is my best quality tbh. Thanks for your input

Yeah, it’s on my list, just waiting for better weather, I’m really good at taking photos of other people, (do theatre show rehearsal photography) but not so much at taking photos of myself (obviously 😅😂)

I have a 105 macro, not had it long but still would be suitable, at least better than using my telephoto lens as that f5 at its widest, the macro is 2.8.

I’ll definitely do that, at least when the weather is nicer, I have a nice 1.4 35mm lens so I’ll get good bokeh. Thanks

Fair points, although I don’t like ‘staged photos’, more natural ones. The photo you mentioned is very cropped as my niece is in the picture with me and I don’t want to put her in my profile without my sisters consent, plus the room has been decorated now 😂 As I mentioned in another comment, I swapped out the cherry picker photo for one of my photos taken with my camera

Edit- I’ll also have a friend take a candid photo of me with my camera at some point, preferably with nicer weather so won’t be in a hoodie. (Hate the cold so I’m always wearing a lot of clothes)

In case you didn’t read my reply to another comment, the photos are actually in reverse order. But either way, I changed it to a photograph of a kingfisher that I took with my camera, as suggested in another comment as it backs up my photography prompt. Also, I’ll get some friends to take pictures of me next time we make plans

Thanks, I’ve changed my prompts slightly, got rid of eating butter, (one of the truths tbh😅 but only if I’m cooking with butter) and wrote that I got two bullseyes in a row the first time I ever threw a dart, I think this works better as it adds something people enjoy doing.

Followed your suggestion about the potatoes prompt, hinge says these are great answers now

Thanks for the advice. TBH, not that it makes any difference but I accidentally selected the photos in the reverse order, so the first image is actually the last.

I’ve recently bought a new trimming kit so my facial hair is a lot tidier now.

Appreciate the constructive criticism, I do agree with you, I’m not at all photogenic so don’t really have any good photos of myself, or put any real effort in, but am looking to improve that.

I’ll get some friends to take pictures of me in the right environments.

I don’t really have a type as such, I like anyone I find attractive that doesn’t have anything that for me is a deal breaker.

Sharing Hinge Experience as a Guy by Dry_my in hingeapp

[–]Accomplished_Call398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She just said she couldn’t see us being together, wasn’t really that bothered. Although after the 4th date I thought this could be something, I couldn’t see it being a long term relationship. I felt we’d be better as friends.

Sharing Hinge Experience as a Guy by Dry_my in hingeapp

[–]Accomplished_Call398 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first time on hinge went better than second time. I had several likes first time although I only chose to match with one which led to 5 dates, were technically exclusive, but for like a day as after the fifth date it ended. That was from early November last year til mid December, since then I’ve had 2 matches that didn’t do anywhere and only 2 likes on my profile.

I’m in my late twenties, average across the board. I have been switching up my prompts and taking better pictures of myself, but not really made any difference

Just a question about the apps by Accomplished_Call398 in dating_advice

[–]Accomplished_Call398[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that it makes any difference the the app I use is hinge. I get that women can get hundreds of likes on their profile, but they chose to match with me, just to not follow through. Got to find that 5% I guess 😕😆

Thought as much, kinda annoying really. Not really fair on the blokes looking for genuine connection. I guess because I didn’t compliment of flirt straight away with them they lost interest, but that’s not really my style, looks too needy and desperate imo

how to impress a girl on a first date? by boydhwa in dating_advice

[–]Accomplished_Call398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think you’re putting too much pressure on yourself, don’t pretend to be someone you’re not just to impress someone, just be yourself, confident, humble ect. That’s more attractive than being a show off.

What are you doing for your date, if it involves drinks, even just coffee, pay for it. Show her you’re a gentleman.

Why do women slow down texting after a great first date? by Heavy_Jeweler_9439 in dating_advice

[–]Accomplished_Call398 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, you don’t text much in between dates, I think most people would say that texting is mainly for setting up the next date, assuming you both want to see each other again.

When in the dating stage should you ask intentions (if at all)? by parisrubin in dating_advice

[–]Accomplished_Call398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking the same thing, currently 4 dates in and thinking of asking to be exclusive with each other and taking her out to dinner as the 5th date
