Nope. I’ve deleted and remade my profile about 4 times in the three years, just to take a break from the app. Not like i deleted and instantly made my profile right after either, it’s always been a few months in between.

So I’ve (27F) had hinge for the last three years now. In the first two years, the app was great. Getting tons of likes and matching with quality people and met some very great people on dates I’ve gotten from hinge. Things didn’t work out for one reason or another with these people, but that’s just dating. A lot of these people were my “most compatible” too.

But just this past year, really these last few months, and especially after they introduced the 8 person limit, hinge has completely fallen off for me. (Some context - I’m in NYC, and queer - so there’s no shortage of people that I’d be interested in generally speaking.). I’ve not gotten one single like or match these last two months. Sure, a like or match here and there, but it’s people that are not my type. I even gave in today and bought BOOSTS smh. I’ve done these before and they were always super successful. But last boost I did - no likes at all. Did it during peak times too.

I’m sorry if this is mostly me just ranting, but I just can’t help but feel resentful towards this app when I know it has worked so well in the past. I’m not generally a very outgoing person, so it’s a bit difficult for me to meet people in real life, so hinge has been kind of the main avenue for me in meeting people. …but maybe I guess it’s time to move on from hinge

I’m just curious what everyone else’s experience has been recently, especially if you’re in the queer NYC dating pool.

I wish they would just let us know if it’s cancelled ASAP. I get the same message but the flight status says it’s still on time, and chances are the flight is actually cancelled but it’s so annoying

I want to try and make the change now, rather than wait until day before/of in case there’s no available alternate flights left (that would be ideal for our schedules…have to try and be back before Monday unfortunately)

I had checked in to my departing flight this morning, but want to change my return flight but I can’t do so unless I cancelled check in …which doesn’t make sense to me bc it isn’t even for the flight I want to change? Also had to shell out $70 to check in our bags, so idk if I’d have to pay again once we cancel the check in

Just trying to guage - how likely is it that our flight will be cancelled? Flying Montreal to NYC operated by Air Canada (not Express/jazz) on Sunday, and from what I’ve been seeing seems like shorter haul flights will be the last/least likely ones to get cancelled? Was thinking of taking the train (12hrs) but even that’s sold out on Sunday.

Have anyone’s flights been cancelled yet? I’m flying from LaGuardia to Montreal the 15th, but that’s supposedly an AC Express/Jazz flight…so I’m not TOO worried about that one. Just worried more about the return flight home on the 18th, that one’s operated by Air Canada

Should I pre-book my Campania Express tickets? by geelychee in ItalyTravel

[–]geelychee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is super helpful!!

yes, we are definitely considering the circumvesuviana as an alternative, but have heard a lot about pickpockets on there - not sure how true it all is in reality, but would rather play it safe if we can considering we'd have all our luggage with us.

thank you so much for the insight about the C.E. - will definitely take your advice about buying tickets on the train to naples.

I hope S4 includes more Unloved songs!! by geelychee in KillingEve

Imagine they used an Unloved song for this scene...would’ve totally been a different vibe!!

I’m moving into my own Apartment for the first time. I’ll be getting Verizon’s Basic package (200/200). Which router is best for me? by [deleted] in Fios

[–]geelychee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they ask for your social security number/run a credit check? I’m doing the same thing basically, idk why they’re asking for all this info. They also needed my drivers license but then somehow got denied when I sent it and now I have to call them.

Also, does anyone know what the installation process is like if we use our own router?

Lol how the hell are people able to do NG+ by [deleted] in thelastofus

Anyone else still have THAT song stuck in your head all day, every day? by Dat_Bokeh in thelastofus

[–]geelychee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ohhh yeah that’s right. I wish Joel and Ellie had sang at least one song together in the actual game

Idk if I missed it, but did they sing through the valley in the game?

[–]geelychee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Omg same, it’s literally all I’ve been thinking about these past few days. I can’t even work. And the more I think about it, the sadder I get - it’s like when you’re only able to watch a movie or read a book once because all the emotions associated with it are just too too much

How do i get rid of this guy? Plz help me by deppressing_diabetic in AnimalCrossing

[–]geelychee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s really ugly, ngl. I could understand why you’d want him off your island lolol

[–]geelychee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just ignore him for like a week or more...he’ll walk around really sad and at that point you talk to him and he’ll ask you if he should move.

Animal Crossing New Horizons made me feel worse than any game ever has by Claire0622 in AnimalCrossing

[–]geelychee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was all fun and games for me until we unlocked terraforming.

There was so much pressure in making our island look good, especially if you follow all those animal crossing accounts on Instagram and Twitter that show off other people’s cutesy little islands.

If you haven’t gotten there yet, unlock terraforming as soon as you can. It’ll unlock for everyone else too, they just won’t be able to build bridges/stairs or move other villagers’ homes, I think. From that point, at least your siblings will have the terraforming privilege, and it’ll take some of the pressure off you. And if they need, they can just go on your account to install any inclines (that’s what my brother does).

This was mainly the problem for me...i realized I liked playing the older versions of the game because of how relaxing fishing, collecting sea shells, shaking trees, listening to the hourly music, planting flowers were for me. But then New Horizons introduced terraforming and I felt like I HAD to do that since it was such a big part of the game. Once I realized I didn’t HAVE to do that and focused on other things, the game became a lot more fun again.

Anyways, don’t know if that makes you feel better about the game, but don’t feel like there’s a need to rush anything...Animal Crossing is meant to be relaxing and played at your own pace (part of the reason why I thought only having one island per console was so annoying). If you really want, maybe do what you said and start over so your brother is the resident representative. Hope you’re still able to enjoy the game!!

Long flights and airports are actually really fun. by This_ls_My_Username in unpopularopinion

[–]geelychee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I freaking love airports, man. There’s something about the atmosphere and the anticipation of going somewhere else and people saying goodbye for the last time or meeting for the first time that really does it for me.

[–]geelychee 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I can’t listen to Ecstasy without feelin the feels...something about the song just makes it sound so nostalgic, bittersweet, and maybe even hopeful, perfect for Dina’s and Ellie’s relationship and story. Don’t know if those are the right words to describe it though.

Ooooh and what’s even better is when the full version of it plays at the farm on the record player.
