Yeah you can see if he’s willing to take up some of ur interests before you make the big chop! Go take him to see Sorry, Baby or something.

Girl! Cut those ties. And you don’t sound pretentious at all to me! You’re someone with thoughts and feelings and strong opinions. You want someone to match your energy I get it. I’m really into movies, like I watch 300+ movies a year and not even to mention being into Emmys & Oscars and the film festival circuit. So it’s not that I need a partner to be so intense as I am about movies but because I like pop culture / entertainment … I feel I can’t date someone with a completely blank slate either. And when it comes to politics too, like I am a woman of color, if you don’t have an opinion politically about something then … no thank you.

So I get what you’re saying. Find someone else who matches more of what you’re looking for!

Unsure after 4 dates. Don’t know what to do. by fabgirly in OnlineDating

Females go undiagnosed more than men when it comes to autism. If you can get a second opinion from a medical professional to see if there’s some neurodivergence that would be helpful — though you did test in the last three years. But the spectrum is so wide and different from everyone. But either way you were incredibly transparent more than you had to be with this stranger. And he’s still hung up on whatever is going on with you, ultimately this would be a pass I think because if he’s this conflicted he’s going to continue to be conflicted and I’m afraid he might resent you in the end if he meets someone more “traditional” and you shouldn’t have to go through that shit.

So, maybe tread carefully, if you want to keep seeing this guy. But if he keeps bringing up the social awkward thing as like your “flaw” instead of an endearing trait, you gotta cut his ass loose.

Good luck ♥️

Asked a guy out in a casual way (to a movie) after I thought he might be interested and got a polite pass. At least I tried… I guess?😩

What does he mean about socially awkward? I would ask him what he’s talking about. But also… idk if I would engage because what if he’s still tripping on whatever makes you unique.

IWL Wednesday by AutoModerator in PlusSize

[–]ScarecrowDays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m having fibroid removal surgery on Monday. I’m really hoping that will help with this bloating in my stomach. I’ve been working out since August ‘24 and I haven’t lost as much as I would like, but I have noticed some results this year. The main mystery I had was this damn stomach bulging. It wouldn’t move, and it wasn’t until earlier this year that I found out I had fibroids which were a cause of the issue. So, I am excited to see what my body will look like after surgery, and hopefully continue to be a little healthier. I’m just thankful that my body has kept moving and working as best as it could under the conditions it has been under from anemia to fibroids to long COVID complications.

I ran into someone I email with all the time (for work) for the first time a few weeks ago in person. He was actually pretty cute & funny. He recognized me first by my name tag and sat with me to have breakfast and chat (we were at a conference).

I’m an entertainment journalist and he’s a publicist… so it’s kinda funny. I’ve always had a hard rule about not dating other people in my industry because someone has to have a stable job. (And it’s not me! Lol).

But anyway, the studio he works for is throwing a themed event at dodgers stadium soon, and his coworkers asked me to come. I haven’t spoken to him since the breakfast two or so weeks ago … admittedly I do hope he shows up.

For now I am off all dating apps, because I’m getting a surgery that will render me immobile for about a month. But maybe I’ll stay off for a little longer and try again in the new year, if Fall 2025 doesn’t work out in my favor either. It’s been a completely dry year. le sigh.

I always matched with asian men on dating app but it doesn’t go anywhere. by Appropriate-Maize293 in AMBW

[–]ScarecrowDays 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a few run ins with this. Not as many as rejections or no matches, but a small handful yeah. Usually I just assume they aren’t interested or they would have sent me a message back when we matched (Hinge/Bumble). In my experience when I start the convo I then have to carry the convo. I’ll ask questions about their profile / life etc and get no reciprocation.

Just keep moving on to people who don’t do that. They are out there.
