The Dating Thread

Yes, precisely. Not that I have a malignant person, but sometimes I have a hard time being more casual or I care too much about what other people think about me. I am working on this.

Yep, that’s why I never go festivals or clubs for girls. But you know what, once I met a really nice girl there, by crazy play of fate.

And I don’t care about hookups, and I know several people who go to festivals who don’t either, but I agree with you for the majority of people.

I know one person who had an internship in an asylum and apparently one of the patients never went back to normal after a pill… So yeah that’s frightening.

This evening revived something in me. Desire or lust. I had not felt like that in more than a year. The girl I was in love with, for a year, I was putting her so much on a pedestal that I was barely feeling anything if anything of that nature

Anyway, I’m happy that I’ve changed my mindset there and that I’m not worrying as much, and just doing things.

We have mutual friends who go out in a group and we were still friends.

What was the response?

I can’t remember her exact response but she found it pretty funny. I kept it going for a bit, you’d have been proud.

Hell, even the INS guy may have been proud :joy:

That’s funny. I’m sure you understand the contexts in which I spoke about that. My wife works. So did or do all the women in my family, except my maternal grandma.

Yes sir, I do. I know I took it to the extreme, it was just for laughs. I understood what you meant and although may not agree on everything, I respect your opinion! This thread is wild, but definitely some thought provoking ideas on both sides of the isle.

Just kidding. I like when women are happy.

I matched with this girl on the “main” dating app and everything seemed completely normal. We actually had a bit of a shared social circle which made things pretty smooth but when I showed up she had literally ran a background check on me and was trying to show me the report she printed off…literally wtf pretty much like that scene in the office with Oscar but in real life.

Had ad a friend in a kind of similar situation so I can see that. I always thought it must be odd for him though tbh

Nothing against you, but I’ve no problem with people running background checks on potential dates, and especially for people met online. It’s a weird world, so it doesn’t hurt to be more cautious. Even background checks are limited - not all predators have a record - but every little bit helps.

I get your line of thinking but to bring the reports on a first date as a conversation starter?

I can only speculate about why she brought the criminal background reports to their first date :man_shrugging:t3:

How did you handle it when she pulled out the report? Anything fun on it to discuss?

Question:
Econ friend (the one with a gf) apparently called last night at 10pm. I don’t answer calls after 9
I woke up and saw his text. He wanted me to “come over and watch a movie” and “we could work on the homework in the morning”

Is this acceptable? It seems suspicious. But on the other hand, maybe his friend group just stay over at each other’s places frequently

Very sus

Extremely suspect. In fact, it would be 109% just for sex if y’all were normal humans. But you’re not, y’all are all half rocket scientists and you’re way too smart doing smart people stuff. So, extremely suspect.

Wow 109%, huh :thinking:

Interesting enough, my school is great at engineering but we don’t do aerospace

Not normal at all, and I would assume his gf would be extremely pissed if she knew about it (unless they were swingers or something)

:rofl:

Not bad if it were already an established repertoire.
