My theory is anyone who is better looking and/or in better shape than me must be gay.

Whoah, when did okc change to a 5000 message limit?

Exciting

I guess this means less of those annoying 'her inbox is full' notifications

When you pay for A-list

EDIT - Oh wait, nvm, now everyone has it. Cool I guess.

Jesus Christ what is it with this ******ed craze of the digital bunny ears and dog noses and weird eyes , it's not hot or cute or funny just STOP IT WOMEN

Snapchat filters I think (I don't use Snap or IG). I find them incredibly stupid and have less desire to contact a woman who uses them in her profile (or includes links to her IG profile).

It's a trade off, looks like that makes them less probable to be smart but more probable to get laid

The fake physical mustaches were worse.

So... smart girls don't use snap chat filters, and girls that do are open to sex?

Gotcha I definitely see the correlation.

Grumpy old men complain that happy young women are happy and young. News at 11.

Agreed, and I am not grumpy nor old. I just find them dumb and off-putting. To each their own.

FWIW I find them idiotic as well, and I'm female.

I'm also an old tho.

When all your pictures are Snapchat filters, that's an enormous red flag. I find them at worst idiotic, and at best disingenuous. Like who's all "wow, I really want to bang that cute dog/bunny/doe"? And, do you really want to meet the guy who thinks that?

Walked to meet up with a date tonight. We decided to move to a second venue that was driving distance, so of course she drove. lol me

I haven't had to deal with driving or being driven for a while now (urban living). The problem here is that you're out of the power position, definitely feels weird being the passenger for me.

Did you kiss? First date?

So, after the disappointment with the POF girl who ghosted me, I pretty much swore off online dating until I can get my domestic situation back into the realm of anything resembling ****ing normalcy.

About a week ago I get a Bumble notification of a chick that I had swiped right on probably ages ago. She messages me and turns out we work for the same company, and she does the same kind of work. She works at a division down the road but lives in the same town right around the corner from me.

We message for a while, exchange numbers, and have talked about when we both will have the time to meet up (she's a single parent too). I really didn't want to get into this predicament with another potential, but oh well here I ****ing am. I actually like this chick even more than the POF one, so it's really bumming me out thinking about how this is going to go down.

For anyone that didn't catch it the first time or wants a refresher, see below. And there's a new ****ed up element to add to the pile of ****... my ex's new boyfriend is now in jail. So there goes the whole "she'll be moving out with him soon" bit... ****. My. Life.

Man,she really can pick em,she might be related to my ex wife,she has the same kind of problem.

But maybe it's for the best,if he's that sketchy you don't want your daughter anywhere near that kind of drama.

I assume you've hinted at your situation to this new girl?

It's best not to surprise her later,I would think.

I feel like the girls who are willing to accept that he lives with an ex and raises her kid essentially while she bounces from jailbird to jailbird while still maintaining his residence are hopeless chuds who have no choice but to accept it. CandyKreep is totally screwed until he cuts that dead weight off. Referring to woman not the kid. Best of luck to you, you seem like a good guy, but I feel like it's going to be impossibly tough for you until she's gone.

Candykreep is definitely in a tough situation.

Haven't hinted at it yet since the topics of ex's or living situations haven't really come up yet, oddly enough. I haven't lied about it, but I haven't just came right out and offered it up yet either.



You're right, but easier said than done. If I kick her out, she has to go back to Indiana and God knows what ****ed up living situation she'll have my daughter in. This is the only stability the kid has had in her life. I couldn't live with myself if I deliberately took that from her.

God bless the lazer George Clooney line. Melting the hearts of battle hardened tinderellas since 2013

Fact: this is still the gold standard for getting elusive bitches back into your chat

You ever discuss with her getting full custody somehow through adoption or otherwise? Like be all nice and get her to sign some agreement?

When am I gonna learn? Twice in the last 2 months that I've met a girl b/c I thought "well she could be hot", but of course isn't. Gotta stop taking a chance on girls with only 1-2 fuzzy pics. The worst feeling is meeting up for a first date and insta-realizing that you're not attracted enough for it to go anywhere.

To be fair, the convo was pretty interesting and she's someone I could see myself being friends with. I'm not sure how most women would react to "well I'm not interested in dating you, but would like to keep meeting as friends". Maybe it's possible.

I've decided I'll stay in Lyon, now all that remains is getting my visa, which ends in July, extended. I'm thinking it's ~80% chance so hoping for the best b/c I really love Europe. I've been hitting the dating sites harder and been having another hot stretch.

This super cute girl surprised me by finally responding to my opener after 8 days and then insta-responding to my 2 follow-up messages. Her messages have been a bit boring and matter-of-fact, but with French girls that doesn't necessarily mean you're dead in the water like it would with Anglo girls, so I plan on asking her out for a drink in my next message. One of my best first dates was with a girl who wasn't engaging at all online, just answered my questions curtly, and never posed any, so I just said **** it and threw up a Hail Mary, and to my surprise was very enthusiastic to meet up.

I'm still getting used to the different dating culture here, and of course the language barrier adds an extra degree of difficulty. I'd like to get into an LTR soon, but the girls who have been way into me, I wasn't too interested in, and the few I was into didn't share my interest. C'est la vie !

I had what I thought was a solid first date a week ago Tuesday with Charlotte #2. But then I proposed a 2nd date for the weekend and she said she was out of town (feasible b/c it was a long holiday weekend) and then I asked again for this week and she replied "way too busy, we'll see for next week!". I tend to just move on to the next after 2 rejections unless they re-engage, but maybe I'm being too hasty?

She would never in a million years give up custody. We have talked about me becoming her legal adoptive father. But the state of Texas makes it pretty damn hard. We'd have to either find her ex-fiance, the dad (no one has heard from him in years) AND get his sign-off (he wouldn't, just to be a dick)... so, if that isn't possible the court would have to appoint an attorney to represent his interests that I would have to pay for - on top of the extraordinary amount of money (which I don't have) that I would have to spend on my own lawyer.
