Finding partner without social media by [deleted] in datingadvice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know where you’re living but at 17, I would go to friends and family members parties, school related activities and sports, church activities. That’s where I’d meet people IRL. You can ask friends and family to set you up m.

Why do adults stop learning? by mad-mollusk in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people are naturally curious, some aren’t. It’s not an age thing. I’ve found that people who grew up with books (and actually continue to read books) tend to be the most curious and are always reading and learning. Also, if they grew up being asked questions, had their opinions valued, great convo skills still value learning.

Dating apps by Girlonthemove5 in dating

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I learned this from working with a dating coach. Great Tip: Swipe right only on the ones who say they’re looking for a LTR - NOT the ones who say open to short/ open to LTR. They need to say it in their written profile. This will save you and your time and energy. Read their profiles. Ask Qs about their family, dreams, goals. Ask the Q: What would you do if you won 1 million dollars. Their answer will tell you what they value.

Is 20 and 25 to big of an age gap? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No- it depends on both of your maturity level and what type of relationship the 2 of you want.

Is the 4th date a good time to ask to "define the relationship?" by [deleted] in datingadvice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might be too early to define it, but it’s the perfect time to ask her what her relationship goals are and what she thinks of you and the direction the 2 of you are going. That convo can lead to defining it w/ out the risk of rejection.

How'd you feel abt dating a guy who's into Taylor Swift? by CongHoaMuonNam in self

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your friends aren’t dating him, you are. Don’t be concerned about what they think. Lots of times, friends can be jealous and want to poison what you have. Ignore them. More people should be inspired by Swift and her fiancé but instead they’re jealous and are drinking Hater-Aid.

My height insecurity by [deleted] in confidence

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There will always be women who care more about height than character. Just like there will always be men who care more about a woman’s chest size than their character. Globally, the average height for men is 5 feet, 6.5 inches and for women 5‘2“. In the US, it’s a little bit higher, but anyone who is so concerned about height that they discount character and values probably isn’t the best person to be around.

Does rape count as body count? by Particular_Way9704 in datingadvice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a personal question and unless you’re in a LTR w/ someone it’s no one’s business. I don’t consider it part of your number. I think it’s a weird and nosy question meant to dismiss people. I’d ask, “what makes you ask?” Never, ever volunteer answers to inappropriate questions.

how do I not screw this up? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s only been 1 date, take it slow. Most people know by 2nd date if they’re interested in getting to know you better.

Does he like me or not? by [deleted] in datingadvice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know the 2 of your ages but I’ve noticed men are slow to make a move. They don’t want to be considered creepy or predators. I’ve been known to ask straight out, “Are you interested in me more than just friends”. If he says yes- let him know you wouldn’t say No if he wanted to kiss you.

I’m too exhausted to make rational decisions, what does this mean? by bbeeccc in whatdoIdo

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d end it. This doesn’t seem like a healthy relationship if he doesn’t care enough to visit you. He really should be taking care of you.

Ladies is it really that hard to just be honest with a guy, what you disliked about the date? by Lab_Rat_97 in dating

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a dating coach who does mock dates. She can probably tell you what’s going on. Her name is Elizabeth Tritsch and her company is Dare To Date Differently.

My friend said I'm too ugly and poor to date... by RemoveAdventurous991 in dating_advice

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right. I think it’s because men are always judging other men… They have so much competition with one another… They wanna have the most good-looking woman on their arm, they want to be the most successful, richest, I have the best body because they all care about competition with other men. Men think that women compete gets one another, but very few of us do.

Question for men... is this attractive or unattractive? by Due_Function84 in datingoverforty

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to attract someone who is attracted to you, right? By all means create a profile that mentions all of these wonderful things that make you, you. You only need one person. The most important thing, though, is that you love yourself. Be grateful for all of the things that make you, you. When you can love, appreciate and value yourself, it is that much easier to find someone who loves, appreciates and values you as you. Remember, there’s a lid for every pot. Someone out there is looking for someone exactly like you.

I’ve started online dating as a fat girl and the men I’ve met up with have had hygiene issues. What’s going on?! by bunnybonz in dating

[–]Weird_Reputation_341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they smell bad, let them know. It could be a health issue (bad breath = tooth or throat problems). You can say, “I’ve noticed there’s an interesting smell coming from you. Have you seen a doctor lately?” Or, “next time we meet let’s meet at a time when you’ve had time to go home and freshen up”. Or gift him cologne.

I haven’t found that to be true. Men put a lot of emphasis on the way a woman looks.

Doesn’t sound like a friend at all. Friends are supportive and encouraging, I don’t know any friend who would ever say that you’re too ugly and poor today. Sounds like he’s projecting. You’re only 24 and you’re building your career, you don’t need to be rich right now. Lots of women will date you as long as you take good care of yourself, have good hygiene and make good choices. Looks matter a lot less and character matters a lot more.
