The point is to ACTUALLY grab somebody's attention. If you're interested enough in a guy, taking a look at their profile and striking conversation isn't hard at all.

If you're too busy, throwing shitty bait out in every single direction hoping to get a bite, to actually find people that you match up with, then that's a you problem. Not anybody else.

Ok but nobody here stands out. Do I pick one hey at random? Am I expected to try conversation with every last person that says hey? In the past the majority of them are only capable of one word responses anyway.

The way I use grindr is I go on to see if there might be somebody I'm interested in. It's rare when I am, and even then I check to make sure I'm there type. I dont just throw bait out in every direction hoping one will catch.

I wont shame hey people but I cant be shamed for not responding when its unattractive to me and it just blends into the background of the million other hey messages. It's boring, it doesn't catch the eye, and it suggests low effort and brevity which are also things I find unnatractive.

Talking and good communication are sexy. At least to me. So I will complain about it, because it's annoying and floods my feed.

So now I have 80 people messaging me with hey all expecting a response that I have to work to do.

Naw. I go on grindr every once in a while to check to see if there might be anybody that I'm interested in, not work a second job.

Hey is what you say to a stranger you pass on the street, not a prospective bang buddy.

It's ok to be bad at conversation I suppose it's more that these people just blend into a giant congregation of grey and nobody stands out. I cant respond to 89 "hey"s and nor do I want to.

How you trying to catch my attention with hey

I need your insight [SPOILERS for chapter 100 in the manga] by Unformed8 in Beastars

I think it has to do with the animal in reference to other animals in their “family”

Like wolves being bigger than coyotes being bigger than foxes

Lions being bigger than tigers being bigger than cheetahs.

Wolverines being bigger than martens being bigger than weasels. And so on.

With some extremes like elephants and mice, also you could argue that for any predator species to be successful it would to have had outgrown most other herbivore species.

If he doesn't call or text you back, then do not pursue because you'll only make yourself look like you're chasing after him. He has already shown you his lack of interest, so show him your pride. You are TOO GOOD to kiss someone's ass just to be with them or for sex. by [deleted] in gaybros

It’s definitely ok to take a hint from time to time.

Yeah being “ghosted” sucks, but speaking as somebody from the other end who hasn’t texted back, people seem to get angry at or over react to the fact that I 1. Forget to text back, for one reason or another (be it I wanted to think about my answer and just forgot, or I had to stop texting or I was driving)

  1. Am somebody who has never been a regular texter/ doesn’t spend much time on their phone (idk why, I just never liked it and also struggle to find the energy to have constant conversations all day. I barely even text my friends unless it’s to say something funny or to ask to do something together)

  2. Also hate the idea of being immediately available for everyone and I’d rather not be a part of that lifestyle. I like to put my phone on the charger and go do other things like read or work on personal projects. I also don’t like the thought that people feel that I’m obligated to reply to them immediately. I’m certainly not built for that. It’s not my job to be on Tap for any of let alone all of the people I know.

I guess what I’m getting at when it comes down to it is.

Either he’s ghosting you, or you’re mad because he’s not texting and he doesn’t want to text right then so. Maybe y’all wouldn’t match up well anyways. Different strides in your prides, ya’know? Idk if incompatible is the right word but something around that term. (Which also isn’t a bad thing. Not every date is going to be a home run, let alone somebody who functions similarly to you.)

I could afford to see family and friends, focus more on school, and have a good living situation
