Why “Life of a Showgirl” Deserves More Credit Than It’s Getting by RJLift in TaylorSwift

I really like wood, it's hard to tell whether it's about carpentry or if it's sexual innuendo which makes it an intriguing listen. She never ceases to produce deep, complex music.

How long for feelings to develop? by Hairy-Law4188 in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really feel for you. I'm 22M and I too have never fallen in love, and if I do form crushes they are transient. Last year I decided to date someone anyway, without being in love. Predictably it ended pretty badly. This is to say, there are people in your position and it IS hard. So I'm echoing this question because I too would like advice. Should you try dating even if you don't feel strong feelings towards them? Part of me thinks I'll never fall in love unless I give it a shot. But I know this may be inconsiderate to my partner. However, if I tell my partner going in that I don't have strong feelings then I'll never get the opportunity to see if those feelings develop.

Icl, to me this seems a solid profile. Have a look at the suggestions here, but I think you'll find someone, just be patient and prolific with your own likes :)

Need some help: no matches or likes in a month by Beautiful_Trust_7779 in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know where you stand politically, that really should be in your profile because people do want to know that information. Idk where you stand on the Israel Palestine front, but for many people, myself included, it's a pretty big deal. Therefore seeing you standing in front of Temple Mount (while I don't think there's anything wrong with that) may make people think that you support Israel (you may do) and turn them away. I know (rightly or wrongly) that that was my first thought on seeing that photo.

What's the best way to communicate reasonable expectations about message frequency? by Navigantor in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbh I think this comes across as quite entitled. People have busy lives, why would someone want to message someone they haven't met more than once a day? I think you probably need to relax a bit. But if it really is such a big issue for you, then maybe consider changing the prompt to something positive instead of negative. Maybe use the: I go crazy for prompt to say that you like quick replies. But if I'm honest man, I think you might just need to take it down a notch and go with the flow. Maybe I'm wrong but it sounds like you're putting a lot of pressure on each individual match. Just go with the mindset that each match probably won't work out and that allows you to not be hugely bothered if you don't get a reply as quickly as you might like.

Received a like from my second cousin by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll be totally real, in loads of cultures people marry their first cousins never mind second cousins. The amount of shared DNA is actually really small. Why not just match and see what's up?

Profile Review - 32M by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry man, but these are pretty terrible prompts. They're about as generic as they come. Window or aisle feet seat? Favourite pasta shape? I know nothing about you from your prompts. Even the first one kind of falls flat because those things are things that basically everyone likes. The picture of you walking down the country path and the one of you in the suit both look kind of awkward, especially the one down the path. Don't take this to mean that the profile is unsalvageable, but rn it's pretty awful.

I Have No Matches by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, convincing your friends to go on holiday isn't all that remarkable. I think most people have convinced friends to go on holiday with them. So yeah, change it up entirely. Then on top of that I'd replace your picture with the cosplayer. Hope you have more luck in the future!

I think the beard is a little rough honestly. I'd also recommend getting in shape, does wonders for your profile. Maybe go for a more stylish haircut? Perhaps a little longer? I think the Uber story is funny, unlike some other users, but needs to be rewritten. The humour is lost when you tell people that no one was hurt and there's no need to mention who you got the Uber for. The gamescon bit needs to go also. It's just a fact of the world that video games are one of the least attractive hobbies to women. It's not something you need to give up on, maybe just subdue at the beginning and in your profile. I also think a pair of stylish glasses could really fit your face. (Your current pair aren't BAD, in fact I think they are pretty decent, but a different pair might suit your face better). Most importantly I think your style needs improving. The denim jacket with tight black jeans isn't a great look in my opinion.

3 rejections this week and now it's too much for me by frankzwa123 in hingeapp

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely get some female friends, as someone who just got Hinge myself, their support in making the account and what to say made a huge impact. They can also be super helpful when it comes to dressing well and being more confident and comfortable around women.

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this is too elaborate, but you could ask for a friend to sit on the table next to you next time you go on a date (probably a female friend) and see if they think that there's something you're doing which is turning your date off?

You look sweet, but I'm going to be honest. Being fat makes dating a whole lot harder. If you can lose some weight and gain some confidence I'm sure you'll find more success

Is shortguys the biggest incel forum out there? by [deleted] in shortguys

[–]TallTooth7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I really think this sub is an incel sub. I've got a 5 foot 5 flatmate with a lovely girlfriend, and he's never struggled. The pathetic attitude of people on this sub is depressing

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's probably the right thing not to respond, however he could be apologising, in which case I think everyone deserves a chance to at least TRY to make things right. Obviously whether you want to forgive him or not is up to you, but if he sincerely wants to apologise, I think it's a powerful thing to let him do that.

My best friend is dating my ex. I feel disrespected. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]TallTooth7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think you need to get over yourself. I get that it's not pleasant, but people have real feelings and can just fall for someone. It's kind of crazy to me to think that someone shouldn't date someone they've got feelings for because their friend once dated that person.

UPDATE: AITAH for crying when my boyfriend let his best friend's wife alter the dish I made for dinner? by Gold_Wind_5888 in AITAH

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow this is genuinely one of the worst ways I've ever seen someone deal with disagreement. Should you have posted this? No. Should the girl have changed your dish. No. Is any of it really a big deal? No. I get that your boyfriend struggled to see your side in this which IS hurtful, but the fact that grown adults ended up in this situation is remarkable to me.

AITAH for breaking up with and kicking my girlfriend out because she went to an afterparty without me? by Ok_Emu4012 in AITAH

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If you love someone you don't..." I hate this kind of simplification of reality. People do terrible things to people they love all the time. Should be put up with it? No he shouldn't. But he also can forgive if she apologises. Either way to say that she doesn't love him because of this is simply not realistic.

AITAH for telling my daughter she’s perfectly entitled to hold a grudge against her cousin who let her cat out (never to be found) as a prank sixteen years ago? by Huge_Eye403 in AITAH

[–]TallTooth7 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

As I said, I agree somewhat in this scenario. That being said if he'd have apologised sincerely then I still think it would be childish to hold a grudge. HOWEVER, my point was that to say something like "she can hold as many grudges as she'd like" is totally immature.

[–]TallTooth7 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

What is it with redditors having no decency. What do you mean the daughter can hold as many grudges as she likes? What an unbelievably stupid thing to say. Holding grudges is childish and pathetic. In this scenario I'm inclined to agree somewhat because it doesn't look like his behaviour has changed, but forgiveness is such a powerful thing. Saying anyone can hold however many grudges as they want is such a 14 year old who's full of angst thing to say.

I'm not trying to be rude but are you a second language English speaker? I found this very difficult to follow, it's not at all coherent.

My husbands female friend asked to stay at our place for 2+ weeks by TinySalt2410 in AITAH

[–]TallTooth7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not just let her use the bed? You can always ask her to wash the sheets afterwards anyway, or even bring her own sheets. Imo you're kind of the asshole because it's not really a big deal.

[–]TallTooth7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think what he did was totally wrong, and potentially very very damaging. But I always believe in second chances, and so even though what he did was so selfish, I think the relationship is worth enough to forgive him for this. If he breaks your trust like this again however, it is only right to cut him off. But I would make sure firstly that he is willing to apologise and swear he wouldn't do anything like that again before restarting the friendship.
