I suppose but yeah you are right he could framed the question better.
I had one of those, he couldn’t see that he was just firing off questions rather than starting a conversation off. He unmatched me and then we matched again on another site (I didn’t realise it was him, he did realise it was me). He was better the second time, he laughed off my ridicule and we had good banter for a bit before he went back to his interview style. My take on him was he thought it was all beneath him so he was trying to speed through the ruling out process. I’m not sure ending up with only women who are “good under interview conditions” to chat to is a super smart strategy 🤭

Its a bit too "I'm the prize" for me but i now follow burned haystack method to the letter and it saves me from engaging with as many dickheads.

I recently got unmatched on hinge because I said I didn’t agree with meeting up in real life immediately 😩 I asked how hinge was going and he said not great, no one wants to meet up quick enough and there’s too much time spent chatting. I said I don’t have time after working and childcare to be meeting men within a day of matching, so it has to be worth taking the time out of my life. Obv went down like a cup of sick.

He already had my heckles up as I asked him what his red flags were and he said, women who said they’re independent and don’t need a man. I argued that many women feel that they would LIKE a partner but don’t need a man. Should have unmatched then! twit.

Have had a few dates over the month I’ve been on it but not fancied anyone yet. I think I’m going to delete as I just can’t be arsed already! Maybe meeting someone naturally might be more successful as you just can’t judge people from a few pics and no nice aftershave smell!!

I met a guy in the wild recently at a party in a pub, had a nice couple of hours, swapped numbers then I invited him to join our party, he got progressively drunk and quite paranoid.

Luckily he never called me as my friend saw him on the train with his girlfriend 🫣

Nice little date tonight. Another tall fella. Little smooch at the end. We shall see. How long until I deem him a wanker?

Also, probably TMI in general but why are so many men so bad in bed? Like, they’re actively dating and probably sleeping with a few women.

I can’t say one man has been good in bed this year.

When I was younger I used to think sex was great but now I've realised it really bloody wasnt. No man knows how to do foreplay... I always remember this one guy rubbing my clit but using his nails 🤢🤢 get in the bin.

Itching the clit essentially hahahaha I feel sick. It’s always the ones who say they’re good in bed, too.

I find the best sex is with my fwb.

The guy I've reconnected with is amazing in bed, probably a big motivation in us matching with one another 😂

“We will see more of each for sure.”

Proceeds to ignore me day after date. I can’t do this anymore. I’m not strong enough. My confidence is shot.

He's an a, sorry that happened. I know words of encouragement can ring hollow but anyone who gives you false hope is mean and already beneath you.

Maybe take a break until you feel a bit stronger? Sounds like you've gone on a few dates, maybe it's time to regroup and focus on some things that bring you joy.

It’s so mean and it is beneath me.

I’ve suspended the two apps I’m on. It’s not doing me any good at all.

I just feel lonely tbh. I just want to find someone to share life with. I didn’t think it would be so hard.

Another day, another gob. I’m giving up now. Chatting to someone on hinge. Swapped numbers, a few texts but nothing for two days. I wasn’t arsed but thought it was a bit weird as he seemed keen.

Turns out my BIL knows him at work (small world) and said ‘Yeh he said you’re not the right age bracket’ - HE liked ME! And he knew how old I was! He’s only 5 years younger for reference 🥴 I was tempted to write, his hairline is so bad he better hurry up and find ANYONE before he hits 40 but I’m not that mean. Or am I?! What a gob.

Still haven’t heard from him. Yet he still has me on insta. What the duck.

I’ve booked some therapy sessions for myself.

I have a similar issue.

Been over 24 hours since he text me, but he has viewed my insta story 😒

My last messages to him are unread 😑
