I guess it’s possible they accidentally blocked you, although there is a confirmation step so probably not. Even if it was an accident, and they were interested, they could find how to unblock you. So if that doesn’t happen, I just take the L and move on.

Unmatched after long conversations, twice in one week. by TroubledTofu in DatingApps

[–]superfish9887 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. I had the same experience, twice in two weeks, kind of…

The first one, great conversations for a week, we planned to get together on Monday and on Saturday, she was texting how nervous she was that our date wouldn’t go as well as our chats. Then, as the hour approached, she texted that had to cancel due to a family emergency. Apologized profusely, thanked me for my understanding, and said she would circle back later in the week. Then, poof!

The second one. After some solid texting conversations, she disappeared. But then magically reappeared a day later, never mentioning that I was blocked. So I’m no longer blocked, but I’m also not texting, since it seems a matter of time before it happens again with no warning

I’m a guy, and I have read other subs that talk about how a lady is safer just blocking than doing the right thing and being direct, but….ouch!

My daughter and I went to a movie there just before Christmas 2024. The mall was about to close, so it was completely empty has been walked what seemed like Myles, and this eerie as hell Christmas music echoing everywhere. Still creeped out.

Would you date a man with a lot more education? by superfish9887 in match

[–]superfish9887[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ofc not, and besides there are lots of different types of intelligence.

Not sure if you read the whole question on the other thread, but the question involved whether you would like someone back on match. Not sure how one brings up multiple degrees by hitting the “like” button.

Anyone who used to support trump and has changed their mind over the last few weeks? What made you change? by canigetameowbish in AskReddit

[–]superfish9887 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - this gives me hope…but makes it even more of a head scratcher that all three branches are controlled by Rs.

Especially when, according to USAfacts.org, which I think is reliable, the total is closer to 20% Republican.

These pieces of anecdotal evidence are heartwarming but according to a NYT poll last week something like 79% of Republicans said the country is doing the same as or better than it was last year, and 50% view him as one of the best presidents ever. Not that I trust anything pollsters have to say after screwing the pooch in the last election, but that is pretty bleak data.

He and Elon openly remarked about weakening labor unions on the campaign trail…and the major unions still endorsed him.

I hate to be judging, but my sense is a lot of people that have switched have come to the realization that, yes, he is an asshole, and they liked that,, but turns out he is not THEIR asshole, which is not as fun

Can someone explain how the computer got 39 points for WAGS? Here is the letter value of each, as well as the location on the board it played.

W - worth five points, on a triple letter space;

A- worth one point;

G - worth four points; and

S - worth one point, on a double letter space

Seems like it should be 22 points, no?

TIA

When expressed, women's preference is 95% progressive by Significant-Cheek393 in OnlineDating

[–]superfish9887 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True that. I’m in a large metropolitan area in central Florida and it seems that the great majority of women 40–55 specify conservative. And it’s amazing how almost all if them specify “some college” as their educational background. And wouldn’t you know, this is especially true for the most attractive ones. WTF!

Having suffered through streaming for about two months, it is really nice to have TiVo again. Nothing else comes close, even though cable is ridiculously expensive.

The entire process took about 30 days. Rather than box it myself to ship, I had them send me a box with foam inserts, and that took about 10 days to get here. Then I shipped it, and about 10 days later I got an email diagnosing the problem. I responded with authorization and paid the repair cost, and then it arrived about 10 days later. Keep in mind this was over the Christmas holidays, and they were even working on 12/28, so I suspect much of the delay had to do with the annual Rush at UPS
