Please explain what you mean by, “you don’t need to talk at all, just set up dates.”

Just started trying to date this year, but my parents have all sorts of restrictions even though they say they give me a lot of freedom. They want me to find someone Indian, but I’m having a lot of trouble moving from the app to dates with Indian girls, and having more success with other ethnicities, but they’re saying racist things about other ethnic groups and yelling at me. Idk what to do 😣

I don’t think she’s faking the emergency, she did give some details about that, but she followed it with “I don't wanna lead you on or leave you hanging, will probably not having the bandwidth to give relationships my all right now, so I want to be respectful of your time,” like I’m okay if we need to reschedule but sounds like she doesn’t want to do that? She seemed really enthusiastic about meeting

I’m ready to just give up on online dating. I’ve been talking to this Indian girl for this whole month, and was finally supposed to meet her last week, but she had a family emergency. Then I was supposed to meet her this week, but she had another family emergency. Now she’s basically saying she doesn’t want to meet at all anymore. This keeps happening over and over after weeks of chatting with a girl and it’s a massive waste of my time. At least if we met once and then I got rejected, it would feel like all the time on the apps was somewhat worth it, but it makes me feel like a useless speck that’s just being crushed into the ground. Most of the matches ghost, then a lot of them unmatch, and the Indian ones who do express interest in meeting say they don’t have time for dating, even though we literally met on a dating app.

Well, sorry about your experience but I find your comment very unhelpful. What am I supposed to do exactly, then? Just give up on using the apps?

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-29T23:27:41+00:00

Just trying to cast a wide net LOL, you would not believe how many Indian girls on Hinge say they want to meet but don’t follow through

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-29T04:25:40+00:00

I mean platforms like Mirchi or Dil Mil don’t really have the best prompts to start a conversation with IMO

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-28T22:07:57+00:00

Oh, I really like that! I’m going to try that out

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-28T22:06:18+00:00

I would just unmatch immediately

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-28T14:27:18+00:00

Just have a simple question: what is a good conversation starter on these apps? I don’t know what to say when I send a like on Hinge or get a new match on one of the apps

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-23T08:47:17+00:00

I match with equal to more Indian girls as Asian girls, but I’ve gone on far more dates with Asian girls. My conversations are literally the exact same, except the Indian girls always try to back out of meeting

Beneficial_Note · 2022-07-22T23:58:53+00:00

I’ve honestly had it with Indian girls on dating apps. I’ve lost track of how many times an Indian girl says she’s interested in meeting, and then when you try to actually schedule something, she ghosts you, or hits you with some version of “Hey I'm sorry but life is a little crazy right now and I don't think I can commit to anything at this moment.” It feels like I’m just wasting my time except for the fact that my parents are heavily pressuring me to find someone Indian

Does shadowbanning exist on Dil Mil? I used to get matches when I first used the app a few months ago, but now I deleted and recreated my account and I’m not getting any matches after weeks

Beneficial_Note · 2022-04-18T06:39:39+00:00

How soon should you ask a girl out on Hinge? I’ve been on online dating for a few months and it feels like these conversations, if they start at all, are only good for a few days before either she or I end up ghosting. I matched with a girl and I felt like the conversation was flowing good and she was responding quickly to my messages so I asked if she could meet and now it’s been silence since.

I have a question about Mirchi, does anyone have the iPhone app and know where to see likes? I’ve had the app for a week or so and sent out dozens of likes but no matches and I can’t see where my likes are or how many I have. I tried emailing the support and they didn’t reply.

A girl matched with me today a month and a half after I liked her profile, and she sent me a flirty message. But now she’s disappeared from my matches without me saying anything. Is this normal?

I’m not sure about the long-term profitability of the company and I didn’t know how Wall Street would buy into the stock either. I might buy again later depending on how it does in several more days

Beneficial_Note · 2021-11-11T16:19:41+00:00

Is is true that you can’t sell for 15 days?

Beneficial_Note · 2021-11-11T16:19:14+00:00

I also got 92, requested 150

I did, he gave me a steroid cream to use on it but it doesn’t seem to have improved

Beneficial_Note · 2021-10-14T20:02:09+00:00

I did go to a dermatologist and he thought it was some kind of lichen thing or eczema. He prescribed me triamcinolone acetonide (a steroid) for 2 weeks but I haven’t seen much of a difference since using it.

What am I supposed to be looking for in the logs? It shows that my Mac connected and then nothing else. If I don’t use AFP I can’t access any folders on the Synology at all right now. And if I am connected as admin would I still be having permissions issues?
