I was not suggesting the family was going to have input on my girlfriend. Idk where you came up with that.

Did she specifically tell you this?

Has anyone here used and would be happy to answer a few questions? Launching my version shortly, website is officially under construction and should be up and running in 4-6 weeks.

Hoping to pick a couple peoples brains just to avoid making any mistakes they make and ensure that I get everything right as soon as possible

Yes, at some point after we broke up

Fair enough. Maybe for some people it carries more weight than others, though I would still argue that it is not necessarily a red flag in a vacuum (need to know more about the individual).

Happy to concede though that maybe it can be

For the people who use online dating the OKCupid admission today raises a weird result. Apparently without informing the customers OKCupid removed individual's pictures and did A/B testing. With the picture removed people got 40% more contacts and they led to exchange of off-site info / meeting faster than with a picture. At first that really surprised me but in retrospect it actually kind of makes sense. There is a bunch of other A/B testing they did which might be of interest to people trying to optimize a profile.

I've posted from their blog before - they've clearly done lots of stuff like that. Doesn't really bother me because it's for their customers, whereas FB did it for their advertisers.

I wonder if you misread the picture removed part? They removed everyone's pictures for 7 hours. In that time, people responded to 44% more first messages.

I didn't read it. They were discussing it on Bloomberg.

I don't think they read it either

Makes obvious sense but no one should discredit physical appearance in mating. I don't see it as shallow at all.

Just makes ppl butthurt that the supply/demand of mating results in guys with an ego like me butthurt they're the king of 6's. BUT WE GUNNA MAKE IT BRAHS, I KNOW IT

Oh btw been doing a different hair cut past ~5 days. It's parted to the side with a little angle to the back. Very conservative version of the SS haircut. I imagine it'll be my hair style when I'm 30 something as a Gaz (Geordie shore back on tn) faux hawk is pretty immature

girl gets back this weekend. we haven't talked since she left other than a few snapchats, that were obviously group snapchats. also another girl fb messaged us both to bring up a story from march that we both laughed at and responded to.

obviously plan to be 'busy'. i'm confident she's going to want to hang out 1-on-1 as we used to. watch movies and stuff, that no single male and female should do together and not hook up. do i break it to her that i'm not interested in doing that, or do i just be constantly busy?

I'm confused. Do you want to date her or are you no longer interested?

That changes the response imo

overall i care less about her but def want to fool around with her.

before i wanted to maintain our friendship, and ideally hook up. now i want to hook up, and care less about the friendship. it was a stupid situation.

Are you still involved with the girl from last week who you brought to the comedy club?

ya kinda. we see each other maybe 2x a week. i like her, my heart's just not into it. maybe because of aforementioned girl. probably why i've been reluctant to form any kind of serious commitment with her. i think i'll have a better idea of where we stand, me particularly, within a couple weeks once the majority of my friends are back in town, this girl particularly. obviously don't want to be a dbag to current girl and feel at this point if anything happens she is entitled to know.

Going on a date with a 30yo from okcupid tn. Doing the same restaurant and time as all my tinder dates lol. I won't be on my computer until tomorrow so I'll post pics then but I know at least Tony saw them. She's a 6 imo, but had one pic that could be 7.3+/10.

Ex randomly texted "I miss you" last night. I randomly have all of Friday off, sooo tempted to try and do a day trip to Santa Cruz with her but I'm probably better off spending money on other stuff than her.

pretty sure i saw pics too in skype chat, she looked good, have fun

I knew almost immediately within sitting down I wasn't going to get laid. She wasn't my type at all from the way she dressed to what she talked about to everything. She was polish with a super thick accent from moving here when she was in her teens. She talked about traveling to different countries which I've never done so the conversation was weird. And sooo many hot girls were out last night walking by the patio we were on. She gets up between 3-5am every morning in a bakery/cake designing business so I was kind of hoping she wouldn't want to go upstairs but she did. So we go there, play beer pong for her first time. Kiss once or twice and after I'm properly drunk I say let's go (because she has to drive back so she can't be faded). I get to her car, make out and sure enough she's not into going back to her place or mine at all. Then I do like a super slow, sensual make out session and she gets extremely flustered and overly sexual. I say goodbye and go back to the bar without telling her my plans.

She texts me immediately after and said it was her best date ever. Back story to that is she goes out on dates a lottttt. Like went on one the day before with someone. I go back to the bar it's like 12am at this point and cleared out pretty heavy. But I didn't have work today so I was genuinely enjoying just getting drunk and talking to ppl. Then eventually some girl who is overweight but good face so prob 5/10 maybe 4/10 if you hate fatties hits on me. I don't even know what happens but I go home with her. Smash, titty ****, etc. Wokeup in the morning smashed one more time but during I was like wtf am I doing with my life lol, but since I didn't have work today it was pretty fun and not the usual depression of smashing a 5.

She offered to drive me back but I was still drunk and had nothing to do so I was decided to walk and get a cab. Had a good time just walking with headphones in.

Now about to do a long distance drinking match with a friend who is in LA.

I'd love to hear more about this drinking match.

Always fun reading GG posts. I usually get a couple lols from each one. Keep crushin the game brah

3 years on a graduate scheme at a big company.
Good social scene.
I'm in engineering - I'd say there are only two hot girls.
Hottest girl gets lots of attention during first year in company, on the grad nights out.

She is in long term relationship, which moves to engagement. But during this time she kisses two other guys, on one offs. Main guy shr hooks up with is me though, we hook up lots and have sex.

Minor religion issues and big parents issues meant she never went out clubbing much at uni, so grad scheme was her first exposure to this life and explains the confusion in her head.
Fast forward a couple of years and she has split with b/f, and her and I are together. 6 months.

grad nights out are rare now, but last night one happened and one of the guys she has kissed is trying it on with her whilst I'm next to her. Her body language is all focused on me. What's best thing I can do in this situation? I find it hard to remain cool.

Does he know she's with you?

Yes.
