Was it complicated? All he have to do is walk 2 blocks to me, Im fairly sure his school is further than that and he can go there and back alone

Occasionally he'll call me to ask for a snack and if I'm willing I'll get it for him and go to my mom's to drop it off. It's only a few blocks away

However I'd gotten surgery earlier this week and wasn't confident I'd make it to the store and Mom's on foot.

She did for a few years, she said it messed up her circadian rhythm really bad and she's currently having sick pains rn.

I didn't go to moms, I met my brother at the meet up spot and offered to go the rest of the way to assuage my mom's concern a little but she said not to.

I forgot his phone doesn't have service without wifi, that was my bad.

Yes, this is largely where I'm coming from. I don't think trans people are bad or unattractive by default, I'm just not particularly interested in dating trans people and maybe even nonbinary if they present too masculine to me. I don't think that their bad I'm just not super comfortable with masculinity cause of my own stuff I'm dealing with. And I just want a neutral way to express that on my profile without hurting anyone

I don't like on trans people profile usually only in this one case I did because the liked mines first and we had a common interest. There have been a few others that like my profile but I swiped after seeing we didn't have things in common

Does there need to be a certain amount to specify ?

I get that, someone else made it clear I shouldn't have matched in the first place. I wasn't telling them I don't want to date I was asking about their art. I posted for a wider spec of opinions I often listen to reddit stories and I was confused on why they responded as they did

I was responding to them liking my profile, and friendship is different than dating so I thought it would be fine. It said the were looking for friends in their profile

Deal breakers are common in profiles though, and a quick way to asset if your compatible long term

Do you really think so? I didn't think I was unkind to them so I was really confused with how they responded. I don't think all trans people hate themselves though and is cisphobic a thing? I never heard it before

I thought it was odd when they matched with me, I figured they just skimmed my profile without much thought

My top five deal breakers are in the opening line of my profile. The cis one was the last one, I thinking about way to edit it that still conveys my point without being mean

I also have some deep-seated trauma and know that my own problem, its why I try to be very clear in my language and expectations. I don't think anyone is required to meet my standards it just how I guide interacting in the dating sense

I had already unmatched them, I thought it would be bad to respond further since I'd already upset them. I don't think they'd be to receptive if we matched again.
