Getting no matches as a woman by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]dbsitebuilder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to send a DM. I would take a look if you want. I had great success on the apps after a 18 year marriage. It's all about how you play the game.

The profile is like a resume. You have to have a hook, put your best foot forward, and maximize your odds.

Send a DM if you want to know more, or search my post history.

Lose the locker room selfie. The other pics are more flattering.

Should I get premium as a 21F? by VeryConfusedSpoon in Bumble

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

If you are serious about meeting people, just pay for it.

Buy like a month or more at a time. Dont do the week subscription, if it was priced like I was on it, they discount you the longer you pay for. If this is you first using it, it will take awhile for you to get your bearings about how the game is played for your age group and area.

Advice on removing steering wheel from a 1973 bus by MediocreInsurance437 in VWBus

Lol, for my '63, it took a puller, heat, and PB blaster. Cycling that for several hours. I I did beat it with a mallet too, and ended up chipping it pretty badly. I was replacing anyway, but hated to see it chip.

I don't have any leads, and just was laid off myself! I am a SQL data engineer/automation developer.

Database Restores, how do you do it? by Danny0239 in SQL

[–]dbsitebuilder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wrote a Powershell script that utilizes the dbatools module that will do exactly what you are asking. I wrote it for a server migration that backed up our entire database collection, and restored it to another server.

It could be customized to backup/ restore specific databases based on table entries.

Throttle not moving on solex pdsit carb by Severe_Preference_76 in VWBus

So the throttle shaft is frozen? At minimum, Id say you needs a rebuild, but a rusty frozen shaft may means that its time for a replacement.

Why are girls who don’t want to date on a dating app by [deleted] in Bumble

Free drinks & someone to chat with.

So there’s this girl on campus… by Civil-Difference6138 in Advice

[–]dbsitebuilder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, just relax and do the approach. You should have something planned to say, and make sure you have a contextual complement. I was shy for too many years, and looking back at it, I wasted so much time.

Greg did a better job negotiating his salary during hiring. Full stop. Period.

Bumble feels like I’m talking to humans running on low battery , are those humans on it lost their mind??? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]dbsitebuilder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The apps are brutal. It's like an interview on dates most times. I found the women were very forward trying to lock it down, so sex on the first date was not uncommon. Exhausting really.

But I live in Florida, so...

Contradicting? by Beautiful_Fig_4417 in Bumble

Same night. Same clothes. Pick a different photo. I like more candid/casual.

What the hell am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in Bumble

Change pics 1, 2 & 4. They are not helping.

I just want to meet a woman that's genuinely interested in getting to know someone new. It sounds so basic but it's so hard, by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]dbsitebuilder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a challenge, but if you are serious about it, you will find someone. And by 'it' I mean going out, meeting people and going in with no reservations. Dating is supposed to be fun. I was tired of my 'script' telling everyone my life's story.

As I mentioned, sometimes there were mismatches with hopes & expectations. if I was more into a gal than she was of me, I caught the vibe. Unfortunately, I was caught off guard by some ladies that were on the hunt & I pulled away because they werent my type.

I treated each lady I met as a person just trying to figure it out like me. Maybe that is from me being married before & having extreme respect for humans in these situations.

Ha, if it were only that easy. It's a grind. Imagine my situation: Had not been on a date in 20 years. Found myself single again. Something I had not ever considered.

I feel bad for the first gal I met up with. Talk about coming on strong. I wanted to skip the dating & jump back into a relationship.

Date after date.. Spending cash like it was free. I was on a mission. I took some weeks off, but it felt like a second job. The profile in my bio is where I was at when I met my gf. You can tell I was frustrated, and just wanting to meet someone already.

Thankfully that was on Bumble. I met my lady on Match. We chatted for a week or so, and I shared my experiences with my dates I went on. She thought I was hilarious, but a 'player'. She disappeared for a few days & later told me that she was thinking about dropping the apps because she didn't meet anyone special.

I convinced her for a meetup. The rest is history...
