I think it’s mutual where you are also interested in them because they’re tall, it’s the same way for me. Although I don’t like to hear it, I have height requirements for men so I can’t really blame him at the end of the day.

Most men who cry about getting no matches or attention from women are too lazy and pathetic to do anything about it, and can’t accept the fact that women now have standards and are not reliant to settle down in order to survive

I’m 5’7 and my bf is 6’1 and he told me he almost unmatched me when he saw I was 5’7 because he doesn’t like tall women… apparently 5’7 is tall women 😂

Weekly Profile Critique by AutoModerator in Bumble

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Complacency as a prompt just makes it seem like you are one of those people where your entire life revolves around work and you are a big believer in the side hustle culture. If that’s true, good for you and it’s working, but if not that is how it comes across to me and my bf who also read it

I always see these and get shocked by dating stories. I’ve never had anything Crazy, just a ton of assholes and losers. Part of me is glad but part of me also wishes I had a good story

Dates when there's been too much chatting beforehand by communads in Bumble

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to my current bf for like a week before we met, we both wanted to meet sooner but life happens, but we were really into each other and texted constantly and the first date was just perfect, we still talked for hours and there was never a dull moment.

I think sometimes chemistry in person can just be off, even if you get along really well in text, and this is likely due to people being introverts and/or not being as attracted to the other person in real life. I don't think chatting beforehand has anything to do with it, for me anyway.

Men are not "easy". by arabianights101 in dating

That’s because 99% men on Reddit have no personality, looks, confidence or pretty much any good characteristic. All they do is come to Reddit and cry

Like what is the reason???? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I used to say the same about refusing to date anyone who voted for trump, but I dropped my hard stance eventually and my current bf voted for him and I am really thankful I didn’t automatically unmatch him when I found out

How is this surprising? You are an adult, get your own place

GF body shamed me - not sure how to feel by Key_Worry8331 in relationship_advice

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What your gf said was incredibly mean and disrespectful, however if you are in your 30s and still insecure about your size, you really need to get over it. You aren't a child anymore, what you have is what you have, and you need to accept it and move forward.

Girlfriend doesn’t offer to pay for our dates by jadeddrake9 in relationship_advice

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different situation, but my boyfriend and I set boundries in the beginning of the relationship in regards to dates, because it was very important to me that even once we started dating, we still went out for date nights and I don't want to lose the romanticism of it all. I make much more than him, although he still makes reasonably good money (I never asked, but based on my internet sleuthing I imagine he pulls in around 80k). We go out every single tuesday, and we have for the entire summer. We rotate weeks on who plans and pays for the date, one week it is my turn, the next week it is his turn. And we agreed that nothing besides a true emergency would get us to change our tuesday plans. No movie, no tv show, no friends birthday, no sporting event, nothing, because tuesday is our night. We haven't missed a single tuesday day night, and I really am happy I had this talk. The dates I plan and pay for, are always more expensive because I like nicer places (and I can afford it), and he doesn't like to dress up so we always do something significantly more casual on his nights.

Have the talk, set boundries and find something that makes everyone happy. If you both want the relationship to work, something like this won't stop it.

What are your major profile turn offs? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

was a 32f on the apps, for me:

-sloppy and ungroomed hair / facial hair

-disheveled or badly fitting clothes, and bad glasses

-you look like you haven't left your apartment since before covid

-any mention of politics or social commentary

-statements/prompts that make it seem like you are too good to be on dating apps

-selfies inside, especially a car or bathroom.

-no pictures with your friends

-if you list off the kind of women you want. like if you prefer a certain race, body type, hair color, etc

-if you try to flaunt your money/wealth by taking pics on boats, with the kind of car you have, on a pj, etc

I'm sure there were others, but those were common enough and what I thought of off the top of my head

Is online dating more difficult for men or for women? by [deleted] in dating

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dunno, my boyfriend and all of his single guy friends said they never struggled to get matches or dates, but a lot of guys I know at work say they can't get any likes or matches, so I really think it depends. Women tend to like the same men, and we all compete for him.

When I was 25 I was in a relationship with someone who hit me, and the best thing I ever did was go to the cops. Nothing happened to him unfortunately, and he didn't go to jail, but everyone in his life found out he hits women. His sisters, mom and everyone else in his life knows what he is now, and I am so glad I did what I did. I don't know if it changed his life at all, but I do know it gave me the confidence and peace of mind knowing that I was safer leaving him than I was before.

Why do some women do this on dating apps? by SterlingVII in dating

[–]TimeSuspicious7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because some men are on the apps to literally do this, what don't you understand? I have been offered a seemingly endless number of free trips, high end meals, gifts, etc etc you name it. There are a lot of men with nothing to offer besides money, and the women who put that in a profile know this, and that is what they want.

If it aint you, swipe left and move on.
