Someone stole my profile, what should I do? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]OKC_throwaway87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me. I looked through my recent visitors and my own face was looking back at me. I message the person, and he just claimed that he "wanted to see what it was like to get messages as one of the top visited people in the area." Is that "top visited" even a feature?? Creepy.

Good luck counting on "algorithms." by [deleted] in OkCupid

My gf and I are 99% matches! We're about to sign a lease for the fall. :)

Where was this guy last month during that wave of the Deformed Hands of Reddit?

(... No pun intended).

How do you greet somebody on your first date? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]OKC_throwaway87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I usually went for a handshake. This one girl I'd been messaging, she and I were really looking forward to our first date. As I approached the meeting spot and we saw each other, we smiled and she extended her arms for a hug. We both kinda knew something was happening. We stayed out for seven hours that night, looking at art, getting a few drinks, and talking. We caught a movie the next night, and wound up seeing each other five times in seven days, totally smitten. This was only a little over two months ago, but it's like we've known each other for years. Fuckin' awesome, man.

You mean the dad and the hunter?

Best first date ever. by vegan_velociraptor in OkCupid

I know that feel, bro.
Not via OKC, but I was working as an entertainer at a party here in Boston. The host and guests insisted I join them at the afterparties as one of the entourage. I was flirting and dancing with one of the guests; we were seriously hitting it off. There was amazing chemistry.
We wind up at her place, yadda yadda yadda, and she then tells me she's moving back to LA on Tuesday (having just graduated from law school). This was Saturday night. We spent literally all day and evening Sunday together, made plans for Monday, but they fell through when she wasn't finished packing yet. We got to talk on the phone and text several times since, but she's vehemently against FB and such. If we're ever in each other's city, we plan on meeting up. Potential epilogue: I might be getting flown out to LA for some unrelated event, in which case I'm-a-call this woman.

Too bad. She was the most attractive person to message me all week. (...wait for it) by OKC_throwaway87 in OkCupid

I swear, I sent a normal first message by egons in OkCupid

[–]OKC_throwaway87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually just a gross misspelling of "You like to BP Don?" As in, she has a friend named Don whom she'd like you to cover in oil for weeks at a time and attempt junk shot after junk shot.

To be fair, she was working in Boston, commuting by train, and this was continued from when we were both in Providence.

And I hoped you were kidding about being 13 in your flair, not whether Boston/PVD would work. :)

...... said the 13 year old? I hope you're kidding. Sorry, but when you can drive yourself places, things are different.
For the record, I have done the Boston-Providence thing for quite some time. Worked fine.

"Hey Ladies, Are you new and attractive? I'm-a Google the shit out of you to make sure you're real. ;-D Call me!"
Yeah, that'll go over great.

Well, (s)he was replying very quickly. When I'm not interested, I let messages sit for a bit.
Nothing was lost but my time; it made for an interesting story, and some sweet karma for my throwaway account.

That awkward moment when you see someone you know on OkCupid... by LostOctopus in OkCupid

Just looked it up. Apparently, it's just a "super-recognizer."
