she handled it well but i could tell she was heartbroken. we both knew it wasn't really something for the history books with her going to grad school etc but still i felt like she was at least expecting this talk to happen a few months down the line, not today


i feel bad about it, almost as if it was an actual break up with a girlfriend but i stand by my decision... :I

Seconded. You certainly got yourself out of a...pickle.

I agree. If she was that heartbroken after so short a period of time, run and run now.

I must admit, I chuckle every time I see your new name.

idk, we met last year first semester (september-october 2017) so it has been a while too i wouldn't necessarily call that a short amount of time

but first it was like we're two people just hanging out, then over time it evolved into this

and yes the new name is pretty hilarious

The new name fits the profile pic better!

Canadian girls are weird.

dude i would've stayed for that, that sounds like it'd be interesting at least - what book did she pick

history isn't my thing but the setting just sounds great

honestly one of the best dates i've ever had was when i met up with the girl at her school and walking around on campus the library caught my eye so i dragged her inside and we spent a good few hours going over interesting sounding psych books and making out between the shelves

10/10 if she didn't ghost me would definitely do it again

Lol... well, maybe...

39 is old, yeah?

Oh yeah dude.....you're old. When you get to the point where you have to ask or it's even a consideration, you're old.

I call people younger than me sir sarcastically but it kinda hurts when youngsters say it to me. I'd prefer "dude" or "man"

Similiar situation here. Showed up at the address she gave me. I had looked online thinking it was an Indian restaurant....but was a bookstore.

She comes up to me in traditional Indian dress (Now this was a blonde hair / blue eye girl)....and tells me Namaste.

I told her she must have me confused for being something else and l politely left.

Maybe I should have stuck around, but she was completely different than the first date where she never let on that she was that involved in the culture.....not that there is anything wrong with it.

Just took me off guard and I felt out of place.

bumble makes me so tilted

for girls they have a bunch of prerecorded "starters" and they are so terrible, like "what little thing made you happy today?"

worst is when you match AND THEY DONT TEXT LIKE WTF WHY DID YOU MATCH THEN

Maybe they just *relish* the thought of you...

I'm having way too much fun with this. I should stop, I really do like the new username.

You should stop- you think you're such a big dill around here.

Update:

We're officially a couple. I asked a few days ago after she kept giving me hints for the past few weeks. It's pretty nice. Although I'm cautious, I'm happy.

Great!

Remind us again - are you the one with a really cool friend and you went to Ikea and that sort of started the process of becoming more than friends? That may have been Turk though...I cannot remember.

Anybody else ever get unmatched by a girl on Tinder/Bumble after asking them out?

Has happened to me twice in the past week, absolutely hilarious. What the h3ll are you on a dating app for if a guy asks you out on a date and you're just gonna ghost him?

That's right, you just want attention and nothing more.
