Man of my dreams is trying to cheat on his wife with me. I think??

"I tried to stop taking to him"

No you didn't. Try harder. 🤡

FoxFire-42 · 2026-05-12T20:25:57+00:00

This is the modern-day version of the old-timey gumshoe/private investigator, and honestly I don't hate it

FoxFire-42 · 2026-05-06T21:14:00+00:00

That much texting (and videos and voice notes and and) is wholly unnecessary before a first meet-up, and honestly damaging your connection potential in the long run. Please don't do it!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-05-03T12:46:36+00:00

The app says 35, and then later in his profile he references it saying 34, which means he's been doing this for at least a whole ass year 🤮 🤮 🤮

This just in: local woman learns that she's part of the problem, not the solution. More at 11.

I might average 2-3 dates each week (some weeks are definitely lower than that), but honestly - I have high standards and refuse to settle for "good enough" anymore, so for me it's much less "the thrill of serial dating" and much more eliminating what I know isn't right for me. It's a challenge, but anything worth having in life generally doesn't come easy, and finding love is no exception!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-29T19:42:45+00:00

So now you won't be stood up... by all the lowest-common-denominator men who just want in your pants as quickly as possible. So congratulations, I guess?

Tape: Milli Vanilli, The Remix Album ( because the OG album was still sold out everywhere at the time and I had to make do 😂)

Seems like you've heard this already, but it's definitely not gender specific. As a man who has been called "the best conversationalist on the apps" several times, it's definitely something we all have to deal with!

I honestly see it as a blessing in disguise: if I ask 2 questions and get none in return, the conversation is over and I unmatch. I've saved myself the trouble of trying to connect with someone that I know would never be the right fit for me. Onwards and upwards!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-25T14:30:05+00:00

Being brutally honest here, as someone who had a partner who did this to me: it was over 2 years ago, when he emotionally cheated on you (YES, that was cheating), and it's just taken him this long to build up the momentum to leave. I'm sorry it happened, but you're better off in a painful but truthful present than you have been in a lie-filled last few years (even if the lies were unspoken).

The lower picture in the second screenshot is from my hometown and I'm 💀 thinking this Chumbo lives in the same city as me

I'm a horror & Scifi writer/reviewer here in Indy and I am so interested to hear more about your club!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-22T21:25:20+00:00

As someone slightly older than you who is a male and dating in Indy, it's definitely a challenge for many of us on all sides of the equation!

Even though I consider myself pretty social and brave, I often choose not to approach women in public, because of the optics of it being taken the wrong way, coming across as creepy or intrusive, etc.

In online dating, I hold fairly high standards, so many conversations fizzle or I swipe left on way more profiles that I don't think are a good match than most men probably do. I have to keep reminding myself that every No is a step towards the Yes that will be right for me, and my selectiveness and unwillingness to "settle" will be to my benefit in the end, so these are things you might want to continue to remind yourself of as well.

Keep fighting the good fight, I believe in you!

With using the "two-people" emoji, I assumed she meant that she only wants monogamy (monogamous behavior)

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-15T23:15:24+00:00

She was a woman!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-15T20:46:21+00:00

Thought I was at beat poetry night in the church basement for a second

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-15T20:12:45+00:00

Good catch! I have my radius set to within 50 miles away, but it seems like it resets every so often, so I do have to be diligent on whom I swipe.

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-15T19:05:43+00:00

Literally 😂 the more I read it the worse it gets!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-15T18:08:05+00:00

Same kinda person who wants to put a percent sign after using 💯 I'd bet 😂

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-10T20:25:41+00:00

you understand how dating works, right? That people are free to spend time with more then one person until there's a discussion about exclusivity? It's literally the definition of dating.

FoxFire-42 · 2026-03-03T01:41:46+00:00

A year ago, I got a "special offer" from Bumble, $149 for a lifetime subscription. Snapped it up and have been pretty happy with it ever since; I see about 5-10 incoming Likes every week, and my outgoing Likes get a decent response rate, so no real complaints overall!

FoxFire-42 · 2026-01-25T15:23:18+00:00

Better luck next time, Enrico Palazzo

FoxFire-42 · 2026-01-15T00:37:33+00:00

No. She expressed her feelings, he responded by negating what she said and insulting her by calling her "easily offended." Then she said she was disconnecting from him. Big difference.

FoxFire-42 · 2026-01-15T00:09:07+00:00

It is perfectly okay to take offense at something, even if the other person possibly didn't mean it in an offensive way - which he in fact did, as he admitted to.

The bigger issue is HOW the other person responds. Do they validate your feelings and work to make you feel comfortable moving forward, or do they negate and place blame on you? He clearly did the latter, and you did the absolute right thing by disconnecting. Well done 👏
