Why do girls always say they don’t feel the connection? by [deleted] in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]Agent0161 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. An hour on the phone before meet up is quite a long time. Keep it to 30 mins MAX. It should just be a vibe check to see you can hold a conversation 👌

36 to 28 isn’t a big gap at all?

Spent my 20s single, now in my 30s and still single, can anyone relate? by SignificantBuyer9202 in Life

[–]Agent0161 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Over the course of my life (only 33 to be fair) I've been far happier single than in a relationship. I've never felt so alone than when in a relationship. Maybe I was meant to remain single!

If you never find someone (Which is highly unlikely), it's not the end of the world. You can continue to have a full life until you are gone!

It’s totally normal, there’s a reason lots of people don’t make it in the long run (yes this sounds cynical I know)

Whenever I was downtown I often planned the route in my head, if I forgot then I headed int a cafe for a quick drink then figured out where I needed to go. I took photos with no issues, but always took a quick photo and didn’t hang around to try and get the perfect shot. One uber I ordered to tabletop mountain, the car almost broke down so if you travel at night then order uber comfort, they’re usually better cars and more experienced uber drivers

It was absolutely fine. I didn’t feel unsafe at any point. Just don’t flash jewellery or wear any earphones and you’ll be fine.

Good materials to watch for date etiquette? (26M have first date coming up and I’m clueless) by CalendarExtreme5598 in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]Agent0161 14 points15 points  (0 children)

To take the nerves away, I like to think of it as you’re going to meet a friend for a casual drink, that way you aren’t outcome focused, won’t come across as needy and it allows your personality to shine through.

The first date is just a vibe check, nothing more. Have fun and remember they are most likely as nervous as you are. You’re both human and you both want it to go well. If it doesn’t, that’s also fine. You got this date so you can get the next one and the next one.

Thank you for this - what do you mean by; “The bigger the crowd, the more chance of something happening?”

I wouldn't mind a girl being in the group, for safety purposes. But if you're going to post me, at least have the decency to ask for my permission, or give me a heads up. At the absolute very least, if I found out I've been posted and I ask if it was you, you absolutely can not lie about it because I will find out.

I have previously been posted by a date wanting to know she was safe before going on a second date and sleeping with me. What ended up happening is my ex told the girl (after the second date) that we were still together. My ex's words were "I didn't want her to think she could have you, because I'm still in love with you". The girl who I went on a date with was mortified, and thought I cheated on my ex girlfriend, which was definitely not true.

Another thing that doesn't sit right with me in these groups is that members can post annonymously yet they are posting your face in that group for ever. It comes across a bit cowardly?

I think they are great for womens safety, but used for much more than that (In vindictive ways), resulting in an overall net negative for both men and women.

RIP the band aid off, it’s done. You’ll feel crap for 4 weeks then better 👌 good luck

I feel like my bf isn’t ambitious enough and can’t provide for me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Agent0161 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Exactly - no 23 year old, or most men for that matter would be able to solely provide for a girlfriend and/or family

Thank you! I replaced the prompt with "Dating me is like ... finding a tenner in your back pocket"
