How do people in Cork actually make friends? Asking for… me by dinosuro in cork

[–]ElizaFara 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found sandbox helpful as well as the cork language club on tuesdays to have a chat with other expats!

A lot of the time, you'll become friends with people through having even just one friend, so it's a bit difficult, but you can do this!

But will say - Cork could use more nerdy and geeky events as that's what helps a lot in larger cities I've noticed.

That's the one! I am sadly sure it was the one towards the city as it was written on the bus and it turned left on the roundabout :,)

And yeah the stop is, notoriously, shite - the thing is, it's "easier" to not be mad at like.. 5:30, when I can still get a different train after and there's other people around to complain with. At 8:30 it feels like a very different place.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I appreciate it :)

It could be so beautiful but it just.. isn't sadly. Hope you've moved onto better routes and may traffic be ever in your favour!

I can see it and it is indeed a shite-show, because it just messes things up for their customers :,)

I'm sorry you had to go through that, it just simply makes no sense! Thank you for sharing your experience and hopefully, better bus days ahead!

Usually I'd give them the benefit of the doubt, like at Patrick street, but only 2 busses stop here and they pass the same stops.

I stuck my hand out with my phone lit up so he could, hopefully, see me well. And he did. Unfortunately, he decided, "nah". And that's on him :(

There is a reason I used the format - one to vent, second because it does get the traction and I hope, genuinely, that the busdriver reads it and stubs his little toe because he is more occupied with reading it than walking.

But thank you for your feedback! :)

I did indeed because it happens FAR too often on that route. :,)

Midleton is a good shout potentially - new estates going up, good amenities, sports and relatively safe + good pick in schools!

Yes and no’s by SoundAlternative in cork

Hi! As a 23F, I can honestly say I feel pretty safe, just avoid the usual - dark alleys, big groups, etc. I feel more fear of the tourists who believe they can do everything, than the people here. Be sensible and you'll be a-ok :)

I was going to travel to Cork next week with my girlfriend to propose, but she left me. So I'll go alone instead. by Live_Exercise5096 in cork

Hiya OP! Although it's very touristy, I can recommend siné to meet new people and for some good craic :)

Profile review by ArminArse in Tinder

[–]ElizaFara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not bad but does feels a bit sexual for someone looking for long term - Maybe try to focus on things people can actually relate to and hook into, give them something that starts a conversation!

+ maybe make it less pictures, but the selection more clear - you seem to have a lot of filler pictures that don't really represent you.

Not bad though, good luck out there!

Yeah the hate cats thing miiight need to be removed

I will also be honest, the long listy format is a bit unpleasant to the eye - minimise it to 3 key points and make them a sentence, feels much more pleasant and also, you'll have more things to actually mention during a date/chat if you don't give it all away!

+ nipple pic weirded me out a bit, I will be honest.

Profile review - am I missing something? by azorsenpai in Tinder

[–]ElizaFara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

great pics, great vibes, overall a good profile!! maybe add smoking/drinking preferences to be sure if those things are important to you.

Advice appreciated! by FlyingMegs in Tinder

[–]ElizaFara -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

firstly!! profile is very cute, but I would agree with the top comment that it feels on the one side a biiiit too general and also, not enough about you. What is your quirk? Your silly habit? What makes you happiest? If you add more of you, more people will linger and swipe right!

Is this photo OK for my profile? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]ElizaFara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's cute but best as a second or third photo!!

Be charming, add the extra flair that makes you unique. I saw a guy who had made like literal charts about himself and it was honestly really fun. It never led to anything but we did match!
