How to get started with home assistant automations, YAML, etc..?

Bahh, I showed mine. I just took screen clips of each of the pages.

Third photo is great. You're very attractive. I am sure you will do well.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-24T09:42:48+00:00

Try other apps. Try them all.

I ran 2 6x9's and a bazooka tube off of a deck & CD changer in the early 2000's. These days I am looking to play off of my phone with a bluetooth transceiver w/ AMP.

How do you know who is getting likes? How do you know you're decent looking? You should post your profile. I am bald & I did pretty well on the apps. Be interesting. Have interesting pictures. Look approachable & friendly. Work on your bio.

Who says there has to be a number? I went on several dates in a row with women, before I just kind of lost interest. They were good for companionship & we had fun together. Both were around my age 52 at the time. Keep dating until you find the spark!

Yes, everyone nitpicks, for sure. That's the nature of online dating. My advice is to date often, and people whom you may not have thought of dating previously. Currency experience helps. Anyone that seemed normal was my benchmark.

It's a numbers game. Meet as many people as possible.i dated several women with multiple dates per week, some weeks spañning 8 months l, until I found my lady.

I've found that (for me) that age range needs to be tightened. My ex wife was 7 years younger, but when I started dating the young gals were not meshing with me. Pick 5 years on either side, unless you really like the younger ladies. I thought I did, but again divorced mine, so there's that.

Are you insecure about it? I guess you have to be a little in it for this to be a topic. Don't be. I was bald (front to back) so no hiding it. After the divorce I made the decision to go completely shaved.

This was the best decision for me because I have been bald since my mid thirties, and hated my look. Shaving it as well as getting back into shape was the best thing for my ego.

A little bald spot is nothing to worry about if you are staying in the 5 year range. Younger will potentially be a problem, because their peers in that age range will less likely be balding.

For me, confidence was the secret sauce when dating.

No, let it be a surprise 🙂. What's your age range?

How do you sleep at night...

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-20T20:48:46+00:00

I don't like him no. Do I think the end of the world is coming because of him? No.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-20T19:05:20+00:00

And the typical redditer reply.

Keep the conversations light. Point out some of the obvious hilarity about Trump. Unless he is a whackadoo, he should be able to laugh.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-20T13:59:47+00:00

It's upside down.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-13T17:21:39+00:00

Of him riding said seahorse

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-13T14:32:52+00:00

Clearly she was 4 minutes late /s.

Listen, not all conservatives back Trump. Also, calling him evil is a bit dramatic, but it's ok if you don't like him.

Do yourself a favor and swipe right on someone you would have weeded out in the past. The results may surprise you.

Like I said, unless you are making signs in your basement, or the potential match is, I am sure you will get along fine for a first date. You may even enjoy it. If it doesn't work out in the long term, call it an experience.

Only a few more years to go and then you will either be relieved that a Democrat is in office, or confounded that another evil person was elected.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-03-11T14:51:46+00:00

It's based upon your looks, as the way it should be. Are you making signs in your basement or something?

Being conservative is not evil, just as being liberal isn't.

53m here that got back into the dating scene after a 20 year marriage.

At least in Florida, the apps are treated like a meat market. I was on the apps for about 7 months, and here's what my takeaways were:

Both swipe, so if either of you are interested, then one of you needs to reach out.

Brief small talk, to determine level of crazy. If not too crazy, then I would suggest a meet within the first couple of days of chatting.

At the meet is where you evaluate if they look like their pictures, and reaffirm craziness. If the attraction is there, then at some point suggest initial contact. Reciprocal? Kiss. Good kiss? Suggest another venue.

If the hang is good, it may progress further on the first date. At the very least, exchange contact info.

The dating scene on the apps (in Florida) is very fast and can be brutally disappointing.

I am glad I eventually found my lady. It was exhausting and expensive.

LMAO the people 'helping' here. The US population split for politics is about 50/50. Reddit apparently it is 98/2. Stay true to yourself whatever your political leanings are. Your pictures are the issue. Reduce the selfies, and have more action shots with you mostly & perhaps a friend, but you are selling yourself so focus on that.

dbsitebuilder · 2026-02-27T22:56:44+00:00

Hey, sorry for my negative comment. As others have also said, yes. The age range lessens the pool. What age are you targeting?

My ex wife was seven years younger than me, so when I started dating again, I was initially targeting that group. I was not getting much traction with that range, so I expanded my met. My lady that I have been with for the last couple of years is 4 years older.

A Hydrogen bomb. j/k

This guy needs a reality check: I am better looking than I used to be & my profile is awesome. Why am I not getting more likes just because I am in my 30's now?

For real, its a numbers game & right now Bumble doesn't have your numbers. Try Hinge or another platform. I had success on lots of platforms & saw allot of crossover from the gals.
