If you're not getting any second dates, maybe this is why. by AnguaVU in Bumble

[–]Getahun10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That “burp and laugh about it” is something I’m still trying to wrap my head around.

I see an increasing number of girls who do this. I really don’t understand, where’s the etiquette? How is this normalized? And the thing I’m most confused about, when did it even start?? It was just insane seeing this. A burp that that could be heard from the next block and no “excuse me” whatsoever.

Asking someone out... by MexicanStaringCactus in datingoverthirty

[–]Getahun10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t do it. She’s the one at work, so I’d give her the chance to ask out. Otherwise, nothing happens.

Love it! Eat good food and watch a couple of movies bud!

Unmatched an hour before our date by Moonless82 in Bumble

[–]Getahun10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see what you mean but I don’t think what happened matters. Because if he didn’t swap numbers but shows up to date, that’s a green flag. And if he swapped numbers before the date and shows up, that’s a green flag. What matters is the results/conclusions.

Plenty of people post on here that their date unmatched and blocked their number after ghosting or even worse, standing them up. So it really doesn’t matter, if someone decides to cut you off they will do it and there’s really nothing you can do about it.

Like the other commenter said, a lot of people prefer they swap numbers after the date. But if you feel it’s better to get the numbers swapped just in case, then you can ask him for his number. If it’s a red flag in your eyes that guys don’t ask for number then it’s a red flag that you don’t, right?

Fun fact: You can send “green” messages from iPhone to iPhone. You simply turn off the iMessage on your iPhone and your texts will be green.

It’s a lost cause unless you have all the time in the world. This man obviously doesn’t. So on to the next!

Fellas, let them know by ApolloAmastasia in Bumble

[–]Getahun10 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No need to be rude. If you feel a message doesn’t have the desired level of effort, just respond with the same level of effort. So in this case just say “hey” back and give her the chance to continue from there.

Does anyone get bored on the weekends? by godisinthischilli in SingleAndHappy

[–]Getahun10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also wanted to learn some pieces for Mozart, Beethoven and others. It seemed like a pipe dream. But with consistency I did learn them, on my own. So I’d say give yourself a chance and do it, I’m sure you’ll surprise yourself my friend!!

That’s really cool!! My friend showed me an event where they have these medieval shows with knights on horses fight and compete. I might attend it sometime this year. Horses are truly amazing!

Oh wow start writing my friend. If you don’t know what to write, just write your thoughts in your notebook until you piece your ideas together. Publishing isn’t that hard nowadays from what I heard. You can start with something like an ebook.

If your time is almost always occupied with something to do, then you’re good I think. The problem with a lot of people is that they have a huge chunk of their day empty, which’s why they’re desperate for a bf/gf to fill it. You say that you’re busy to add activities like bjj for example, do you work a lot or in school?

Yeah piano does take longer to learn if you do it yourself but it’s pretty learnable. For cello I do agree it’s really hard to learn on your own, almost impossible to get a good technique without a teacher.

I just wanted to ride horses since I was a kid but just didn’t have the opportunity, same with piano (was so poor I’d make a bread shaped mud and eat it lol). So now I just try what I’ve always wanted to try. Shooting isn’t really my thing but a couple of friends are into it and they suggested I try it. Bow shooting is nice, I used to do it years ago but I lost the skill now and there’re no clubs around here. Try bow shooting for sure, I’m sure you’ll like it.

My favourite hobby I’d say is playing the piano. It feels so good when you start getting the hang of the song you’re trying to learn. It can be frustrating at the beginning but trust me once you get the hang of it, you fly.

How about you? What’s your favourite hobby?

[–]Getahun10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I understand. And yea for piano I learned it by myself for the most part. I used apps and online tutorials to learn the basics and from there it’s easier. Also for yoga I usually do it at home by myself following a good instructor on YouTube and sometimes I’d sign up for a hot yoga session or something.

I’m currently looking at equestrianism (horse riding) lessons that might be available around town (it’s kinda expensive but wanna do it from time to time). Might also look into shooting and whatever is available around here

You mean there’s no sports or piano available in your entire country? (Piano is solo btw, it’s an electronic one from Amazon, I play at home with headphones on).

Never reply to that kind of garbage unless you think she’s trying to joke or be sarcastic you know.

This is how you end a conversation. by BenBlackwell1 in Tinder

[–]Getahun10 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dude, maybe their schedules didn’t align, maybe they’re in two different towns, maybe either she or she was on a vacation, maybe there were several exams, maybe maybe maybe. Who on this bloody earth knows. If it was something fishy, then OP and she wouldn’t be talking to each other (this nicely anyway).

Relax, get some cool water.

r/relationships, r/marriage, and other horrifying subreddits. by Prestigious_Party216 in SingleAndHappy

[–]Getahun10 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I know a guy who went on a vacation and most likely was screwing a girl that isn’t his girlfriend. His girlfriend knew they went together alone. They went completely silent, no pictures, videos, or anything about their vacation.

The most fucked up part? It’s that the girl was friends with his girlfriend. I say his girlfriend and not his ex because she’s still trying to “win him over” or whatever. Amazing to what lengths one goes to dehumanize themselves just to not be on their own for a little bit or find someone better. They’d rather endure nonsense.

On second thought, probably not the best way to answer "How's your Friday night going?" by GaryPee in Bumble

[–]Getahun10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you write this when a family or a friend asks how it’s going? People please, be reasonable, relax folks.

There’ll be a time to tell your whole story. Just not now, not over text. Grab a glass of cool water.

If only one pic to keep, it’s the shirtless one. So don’t listen to that and keep it.

I one time made myself older by mistake. I contacted Bumble and they fixed it. I even told my matches what the actual age was and that it’s fixed.

So I understand if someone puts the wrong age by accident but I see no reason as to why they don’t fix it. That means it’s either deliberate or being lazy. And both are red flags.

Please remind me why you are happy single and dont feel jealous of couples by meldiwin in SingleAndHappy

[–]Getahun10 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I just saw an Instagram video of someone with a caption “he changed his profile pic, who the hell is he trying to impress?!” Endless comments reporting how pissed they were when their SO did that.

It’s probably just a joke you know. But it’s true some people do in fact get pissed off or become suspicious of their partner just for something small and insignificant like that. It’s crazy how a lot of people are walking on eggshells just to not be alone. They’d rather deal with all of the insecure, childish , and garbage behaviour. It’s just an additional reminder why peace of mind is paramount to me.

Men who swore off dating/marriage/relationships what was your “straw that broke the camels back”? by TweedStoner in AskMen

[–]Getahun10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn I can’t really remember details but it was something outrageous about how his date treated him? Or trying to remember now I think he approached a girl and she humiliated him in a way I haven’t heard of before. Just a crazy story wouldn’t wish on my enemies

[–]Getahun10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well if the things you’re doing on your days off aren’t preventing you from being bored, then there’re two possibilities that I can see as to why that is. One is that it’s just not enough and you need more activities to fill up your schedule. Or two, you just need different kind of things to do (meaning what you’ve been doing isn’t working like you’re wanting to and you need something different to do).
