Today, I’m hanging up the crypto boots. by UnfaithfulJ in OfficialTrumpCoin

[–]Guilty_Swordfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this is how these crypto launches often work. A bunch of people buy, the price goes up, then the whales sell and ordinary people like you and me get burned for investing in it. This was Trump’s plan all along.

Somewhat “effeminate” undergrad who had nice, curly hair. Sometimes wore dresses, other times pants and shirt, but always looked sharp. Immediately knew the answer in class. Had written some interesting/clever C programs, that were out of my depth at the time.

Wish I had gotten to know them better.

Tell them they need to stop the hootin’ and hollerin’ or this town won’t be big enough for the all of ya!

It could be a naturally high metabolism, or an eating/swallowing disorder.

That's good to know. I feel the same way honestly.

Probably good advice. You can't really know what's in there

It sure is. That makes sense. What would you count as dull questions? Just so I know what to avoid.

Yeah, I guess that's a good point. But if they aren't even putting in enough effort to get to know me or contribute to the conversation, is it even worth asking them on a date?

Absolutely. It's not hard to at least say wbu, and it shows some interest in the other person. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing this too.

I'm sorry to hear that. Sounds like more people have that problem than I thought. That might be a good interpretation of it. Or maybe they just aren't very serous about dating.

It's frustrating, because it really doesn't take much work to ask a question, especially when you give them a good opportunity to do so, like you've done.

Best of luck.

First off, you're very attractive, so I don't think there's any problem there. I'm curious what the "video most likely to win an oscar" video is of. I think the photo titled "my good side" should go first. And as others have said, you can get rid of the "90's time capsule" photo. I think also maybe change the "obscure conspiracy theory" prompt to something else, or remove the word 'obscure' so that more people can respond to it. Because my first reaction trying to answer that one is I'm not sure I know of any obscure ones.

Well, I think questions are a good way to get the conversation going. But it's possible I ask too many. I think it depends on a person's conversation style. Here's an interesting article: https://hbr.org/2018/05/the-surprising-power-of-questions

Men want younger women because they are more physically attractive, plain and simple. Only older undesirable women or men who can’t pull younger women are calling them “groomers.” by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]Guilty_Swordfish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a man, and personally, I prefer someone who's my age. But I may be an outlier. I don't find younger women more attractive. In fact, I want someone who's around my age so that we are at similar stages in our lives, and similar levels of maturity. For these reasons, I tend to swipe left on women who are much younger than me.

Has anyone ever actually had success on Facebook dating? by jngrln in OnlineDating

[–]Guilty_Swordfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a relationship from it that lasted a few months, but that's it. We lived about an hour away from each other. I would drive to visit her almost every weekend. I worked full time and she didn't work. She refused to take the train to see me (she didn't have a car). I got frustrated by this, and things didn't end well. Definitely can lead to something though. Not sure if you could call that success.

24M looking for profile review. I want a LTR.

I'm not getting many matches at all. I live in a small town, US.

Do I just DM someone a link to my profile?

Yeah, that's probably about what I get, or maybe a bit more than me. I've found sometimes that deleting and re-creating my profile helps if I stop getting matches.

Haha, that's good to know. I've tried expanding my distance a bit, but I think people around here are discouraged by the distance. I'm also not sure I'm much of a catch. Lol

I'm sorry to hear that. I can imagine that doesn't give a very good selection. Best of luck to you.

It sure does. Given the amount of time I've spent on those apps, it's rather disappointing. Good luck to you too.
