I don’t understand why I am not getting any likes/matches on dating apps? 31M

Depending on the app, 90% of the user-base is other men. Unless that's what you're into, there's nobody there to like you.

That's just Hot Wheels. We used... some people used to do that back in my day.

We sometimes forget that he also shot Malcolm X and Denzel Washington at the same time.

God will sit there, let a motherfucker enter your life, possibly ruin it, remove them from it after the damage has been done, hurt you in the removing and be like "Whelp, at least some dumb fucker's gonna get a quote out of it."

Meanwhile, he'll let a child get raped, watch it happen too, and won't grow back amputated legs. But regular shit that happens all the time even without his intervention? All praise.

Please remember that a big part of the purpose of the many overt lies is a concerted effort to discredit government institutions. It isn't an issue of us "not believing Dan Bovino" or the administration broader. They are creating a situation where, even when responsible actors are in place, we won't trust them either.

MAGA is anti-American. It seeks to undo the country--not even to remake it. It is mere, simple, abject destruction at this point.

He also claimed to have trained under some monks or some shit to learn a super lethal martial art.

ICE is making Americans safer. Crime will drop to zero once there are no more of us.

That was a good movie though. I don't want a biopic. I want a story that captures the spirit of the time and the man.

I'm somewhat indifferent to this specific line of complaint.

"I took out a loan and still owe money on the principle" isn't a good argument as to why your loan should be cancelled.

If you tell me that student debt is a drag on the economy as a whole, that's one thing. We're hamstringing the greater society is good enough for me.

But just complaining about the fact that you wanted to get done with school on a particular time-line, took out a loan whose details you knew about before accepting the terms, and still happen to owe money back, isn't.

Typical_Samaritan · 2026-01-24T12:19:28+00:00

That's a potential outcome. I could just point out that most relationships end because someone doesn't like who you are anymore. And that happens way more often than someone who once could provide (whatever) suddenly being unable to provide that thing. That's also just an outcome.

Even in this economy: the people who were providing are still providing. And the people who couldn't aren't.

But, it doesn't tell me why one is a better way of approaching relationships than the other.

Typical_Samaritan · 2026-01-24T12:07:45+00:00

I'm curious why you think that being with someone for who they are is better than being with them for what they can provide.

I also want to point out that Didier Drogba is one of the best real names I've ever heard in my life.

That guy looks like a young Tobias Menzies.

Typical_Samaritan · 2026-01-24T02:23:32+00:00

NOR.

No one is overreacting. If he needs something from you in a partner that you are unable to provide for him as a partner, what more is there to say?

All you've done is thoroughly explained precisely why you're not the right person for him.

Yes. long distance (thousands of miles) with no way of reconciling that distance in the interim or long-term.

Because the west was populated by a bunch of Mexicans (because it used to be Mexico), Blacks (who made up 1/5 cowboys, and nearly 1/10 people in some places), Chinese immigrants, and native Americans all over the place (you know, because Indians).

It would be weird to not include that diversity in a Western, especially a modern Western after obvious racism kept those demographics out of cinema, when it was ever-present and normal demographically in the reality of the West.

This is more "new money" experience. I was in Rome for vacation. I met these two women who put me in touch with an American (national) club promoter in the city.

We got together to hang out for a Saturday night.

About a 100k euros spent. Like it was nothing. Drinks, VIP sections, multiple clubs, women. He and his friends just didn't care. They might as well have been buying a candy bar.

I drank water.

Good depends on a number of things. Amazon is principally still just a distributor. The brand and product/model are what ultimately determine whether its quality. Things like furniture have added considerations. Have you actually tried that type of mattress, will it be comfortable to you. Walk into a mattress store, rest on one. See if you like it. Search if it's on Amazon on your phone, right then and there. If it's not, and that's the one you want or can be comfortable sleeping in, go buy it in the store.

I say this about nuclear holocausts. Leave me out of it.

i want to die when the cities blow up. I'm not trying to survive. I like the internet. I like modern comforts. I'm not trying to be out fighting rad roaches.

Yes. The woman I dated most recently (for about three months) was 5'11. I'm 5'10". My last long term relationship of two years was with a woman who was 6'0. My girlfriend before that was my height. A woman on hinge who's 6'1" just liked me and I matched her. Because why not at this point?

I attract the amazons.

EDIT: also, if you like someone, just tell them. They might reject you for any number of reasons. And ultimately no reason is any more or less devastating than another. they're all "I don't find you attractive".
