  • Well, i got on some dating apps, spoke with some guys who fizzled out, had some awkward dinners, and eventually got a boyfriend. Together for 3 years now.

    For specifics.

    • I live in a major city so dating pool is relatively large.
    • be realistic about your own looks when approaching people. I’m pretty average looking and when I approach guys who are cute but not outlandishly gorgeous I had a better time.
    • some people will try and neg you during a date. It will be super obvious. It will make the date suck
    • don’t stick out a bad date because of any sense of obligation.

    It took me a long time to find someone who I meshed with, and who I was excited to see every day. It only really clicked when I stopped trying so hard on dates. Just… had an honest conversation.

    I would rather gnaw off my own foot than go on another first date.

    If you love someone and they go out in a snowstorm, then decide they were wrong and its too cold. Would you let them back into your house, or would you keep the door locked and let them freeze to death.

    This is like the parable of the bridessmaids. God presents itself as vindictive and petty. We are told, endlessly that god has perfect love, but that is not what the bible shows us in the deeds of god or jesus, or the parables constructed to represent them.
