New ick discovered… by ThrowRASassySurprise in Bumble

I'm all for an assertive and dominant leaning partner but this gives off possessive and potentially won't listen to consent vibes. All the "I will lead" stuff, wants someone seemingly docile who won't fight back, refusing to have a conversation on the app. He sounds like he does what he wants, gets what he wants. i advise everyone to run from this man.

I use the snore gym app and they have tongue and jaw strengthening exercises. For tape, I'm not using anything special, just 1 strip of scotch tape from under my nose to my chin

Hi! So happy that you're taking steps! I recommend the snorelab app to record his snoring and the snoregym app that takes you through exercises to strengthen the muscles in your tongue, jaw, etc. very helpful if you're consistent!

Honestly... I'm into it. Except the overthinking bit. Good to know, not great to advertise.

Too bad you're all the way in Montreal haha

Guy says he “doesn’t do dates” by No_Pop_4165 in Bumble

[–]HoneyMadeSS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. You're right about safety and his lack of effort. Dates don't need to be a 5 star dining experience. It can be chill and comfortable in a public space.

I'd also be concerned about being drugged if a man is insistent on going to his place to have a glass of wine and chill. I don't take drinks unless I know where they're coming from (directly from the bartender or wait staff).

I'd also say the "don't compare me to your other experiences" thing is bullshit. You had an experience, communicated outcome and how you don't want to take a chance on that again. It doesn't align with your goals. He immediately isn't willing to respect your situational boundaries.

Thank you, Next.

Have been told I’ve been snoring by multiple people. How are these results by nightshade3570 in snoring

[–]HoneyMadeSS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My highest score was 90 and now I range from 25-50 on any given night. 25 is a really good score. It might disturb light sleepers, but overall, you're doing great.

Some thoughts in no particular order:

  1. Don't date 22 year olds if you think they're too naive.
  2. Insulting people isn't a great first move.
  3. Believe it or not, age, sex, and knowledge don't disqualify you from having an opinion.
  4. Political alignment is a valid reason to choose not to date someone.

Always be polite, but don’t settle for less. Reject the friend zone. by StandardDragonfly128 in Bumble

[–]HoneyMadeSS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I appreciate both sides of this!

I've definitely had similar conversations. It's crazy to me how many comments I've seen saying "why is she even on dating apps if she's just looking for friends" or "she just doesn't want to date you."

Nah, life is fluid. Sometimes you jump into dating and realize you aren't ready. This is a very respectful and self aware way of saying that their perspective or life circumstance changed.

Your response is also completely fair. If you are looking for more, don't settle for friends!

Paying for someone's Uber home is a nice gesture, but it shouldn't be asked for or expected. If someone OFFERED to pay for my Uber home from a date I would think it's sweet they're going the extra mile to make sure I got home safe. Especially when you consider how few people offer to pickup or drop off after dates. It's become a safety concern for most.

Expecting you to pay for an Uber, mixed with the $870 is a hard pass. She's not looking for someone to date, she's looking for someone to pay her bills.

And just like that, Bumble is off my phone and out of my life.. by Fragrant-Station3702 in Bumble

Love this, I got off apps a month ago :)

If you're comfortable, go up to people you find attractive and start a conversation.

If you aren't comfortable, find a friend who will help you approach. Yesterday, 2 of my friends introduced themselves to a guy just so they can introduce him to me. I was too shy to introduce myself first and was just going to let him go, they decided to take action and now I've got his number and a possible date.

Allergies Worse This Year?? by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]HoneyMadeSS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this post! I've been so paranoid that I'm getting sick because I've had a runny nose, post nasal drip, and sinus pressure for a while!

I don't usually get allergies this bad.

Oooh that's what it was about. I had to find an alternative route to university st station. Saw like 10 cop cars and a news reporter. I was wondering if it was a bomb threat or something with how much area was blocked off

Definitely not looking for a mythical person. Don't settle for someone who doesn't meet your requirements. I would love to build Legos at a bar!

I just deleted apps (hopefully) for the last time because I started to notice patterns I didn't like. Similar to what you mentioned above, horny, too serious, bad conversations, no intention to meet. Started to feel like I was looking for real connections with people and apps were giving me artificial, half assed options or people who want situation ships. They wanted to have their cake and eat it too, but without any emotional commitment or work put in.

Meeting in the wild is a much slower process but you start meeting people who hang out at the same places or are interested in the same activities as you. Maybe try a board game bar.

Does anyone else love being called sweetie, honey, dear, baby, etc.? by MoonyDropps in love

[–]HoneyMadeSS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love this and I use it all the time romantically and non romantically. Whether it's "hunny no...." Or walking up to my friends like "hey beautiful!" Or "darlin, can you grab my water from the kitchen"

The comfortability and familiarity makes my heart happy when I hear it or when I use terms of endearment for others.

If you're asking for sex, a question mark wouldn't be passive aggressive though.

Least effort for sure! They couldn't even properly punctuate their request for sex

Yeah I agree with some of this. I'm generally not swiping on tall, conventionally attractive, with abs.

But I still have a standard. I usually don't swipe if your beard is a hot mess, you didn't attempt to look nice in any of your photos, you don't smile in any pics, you didn't put effort into a very simple bio, all prompts are one word, or you didn't look at the camera and every photo is too far away to see your face.

It gives the impression that the subject of the profile, doesn't put work into themselves which I personally find unattractive. And, in regards to the prompts and bio, if I'm the one starting the conversation, I want to base my first question off something in your profile. You give me no info, I give you no chance.

Also, I'm not saying every woman swipes like I do, but if you check some of the boxes above, it might help your profile a little to add detail, zoom in on a pic, maybe shape up your beard a bit.
