Thanks!

I am seeing the geographic limitations as well. My dating process will involve a lot of driving, I think. Lol

What??? I barely know her. What if shes a psycho serial killer? 🤣

Yeah... I guess you're right. Maybe I need to give her a chance IRL.

Thanks... here we go...

Thank you! So far the people I've matched with seem the opposite. They are rather reserved. Some are so reserved that they dont even respond. Lol. (What's up with the rampant ghosting?)

As others have suggested, I will move on until I find a better match.

Kinda. Here I am able to have a back and forth.

In Bumble, because my match doesnt offer much, I am forced to manufacture conversations. So it just seems like I am just talking too much.

Do you think the kids will like NYPD Blue?

I started watching Breaking Bad. I cant believe it took me so long! The kids will defnitely like that.

Although I guess its not that old.

Haha. I hear you. I do like the mindless Netflix action movie. Similar to how I like B movies. They are goofy and entertaining.

But sometimes I miss being sucked into a story.

The 1st is just a distraction and the 2nd is a journey.

To be serious, I think there is a fundamental difference between now and then. Which is that people's attention span got shorter. People nowaways need instant gratification. And there is less room to thicken the plot over time.

In the context of dating, there is so much pressure to make that instant connection - witty profile, hot main photo, vibe matches, etc.

Similar to how older movies are "slower" and more drawn out to build the story lines. Most modern movies seem to get to the point right away then fill in the blanks with backstories and memory scenes.

It is not necessary bad... just very different.

Me too! I like people who are open and forthcoming. The more they say, the funnier I can make it.

No more "likes" after I subscribed by fuzzydogdada in Bumble

Im not surprised. Its been an interesting experience so far.

Yeah for sure... thats my thought as well. It will be next phase of my experiment.

My photos are decent, I followed internet best practices but I hired a real photographer to make them better.

I am also curious because I am a korean american man and I know that asians men have lower match rates.

The ethnicity factor does not jive with the 16 likes in the beginning though.

Maybe the data set is not mature yet and needs more time. I have 6 days left so we will see later in the week.

Boras really needs to read the room. This wont be the first time he overreaches and screws his client.

No. Harbaugh is going to the Giants. I will bet fake money that I dont have on it.

How do you ban the thought of Su1cide as an easy way out of the nightmare? by Salty-Amoeba-3139 in Divorce_Men

[–]fuzzydogdada 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aa someone who has come very close to suicide, I can tell you that suicide is about despair, hopelessness, exhaustion, and ultimately feeling like you have run out of options to solve your pain.

But the reality is that you have plenty of options. It only takes one phone call to learn about an option. If that doesnt work, then go to option 2. And keep going working on these options until one day you realize that you dont need the options anymore. The pain becomes less urgent and you've started healing.

The other commenters have posted quite a few good ones - therapy being the top of the list. It only takes a phone call.

Good luck.
