well this time it's more like I already know the guys in RL and we didn't even talk much online...they just suddenly came up to me being all "woooh let's do this!!" and I'm like "yeah okay! :D " and then they stop talking to me....like what kind of new shit is this? if they come up with the idea in the first place I expect them to suggest specifics. I'm not going to chase something I didn't even initiate.
I have my pride. damn Germans don't know hot to be smooth "$0945frk'##rf!
Oooooh it was that guy. I'm sorry, I completely forgot about that.

Yeah that's a pain in the ass, and I wouldn't bother chasing it either. Flakiness seems to be a huge problem with our generation. The amount of plans made with friends with that amount of enthusiasm leading to nothing is incredibly frustrating haha.

Thought it was just especially bad in the Bay Area.
 
Lea are you far from Munich? I should have tried to use some of my downtime the other day to come and find you >:D

oh wait, I missed something :eek: you were in Germany??
actually I am kinda far from Munich though. but I spent last saturday in Bavaria so maybe we were the closest we've ever been!

Is this the same guy from before that asked you out and then didn't give any details and flaked?

it's a second guy but he's doing the same -_-

oh lol

Yeah, I had a four hour layover in Munich on the flight to New Delhi and five hours waiting there on the flight back.
 
People who start talking to you and then just stop talking to you for no apparent reason are the worst

Also I just made myself laugh with a message I just sent to my friend
 
That's very weird then. Without getting too personal, what are your interactions like after they ask you?

well with the last guy we actually talked almost the whole day through before it suddenly stopped. just casual topics, what we're doing right now, sending pics etc.
I don't think I was weird or anything like that.
with the guy before there wasn't really any follow up conversation. he asked me out, I said yes and then went to bed because it was late. he keeps liking my stuff on fb but never spoke of it again.

Did you venture outside at all? I liked Munich but I have a bit of a family attachment to it so I'm biased.

Munich is nice. I stayed in a hostel there overnight while waiting for my train to Vienna. Munich is also the reason I missed out on getting to know a really great girl more too.

Very odd. I would just put those two out of your mind then and move on. That's pretty weird behavior for people that are actively looking to meet.
Maybe they got cold feet when it came time to actually commit?
 
man the messages on OKcupid are getting creepier and more offensive every day. probably going to delete my profile and stick with Tinder.

what's the story behind that girl?

yeah maybe but it's just like....a first date? I wasn't trying to marry them. idk. anyway..I'm trying to be happy being on my own right now. I can be as lazy as I want to.

OKC just seems really hostile for women.

A lot of dating sites are like that. As several girls that I chatted with confirmed that abusive/weird guys are in majority and due to that a lot of (quite) normal guys end without any reply

Surprised Tinder hasn't been the same. Refreshing to hear actually.
 
ooh I see. probably would've taken me that much time to get there though lol.
how did you like the German airport? :D

I liked it fine. Pretty similar to some of the larger, upscale airports in America, most specifically the one in Houston Texas. It was clean and efficient, which is most of what I care about in an airport.

Did you venture outside at all? I liked Munich but I have a bit of a family attachment to it so I'm biased.

Yeah, I ventured out with a couple of my friends. There's a train you can take into town from the airport so we did that, then walked around for a little bit. I got a pretzel :)

I think some of it was lost on me since I was exhausted at the time and don't understand the German language, but I was still excited to be there.
 
it's because only the people you liked can message you. it helps a lot with filtering out the bullshit. with OKC every psychopath can take a shot.

I mentioned it once but within five minutes of having an OKC profile some 18 y/o fedora wearing neck beard had tried to put the moves on me and it was baaaaaaaaad

True, but I was referring more to the messaging format.
Tinder and Bumble make it much easier for women to regulate who they want to connect with.

That sounds nice Lili :D

How was the actual trip?

I mean, you really don't get much to go off of on Tinder, but you're right there is at least some filter. My comment was more directed at the fact Tinder hasn't been too bad generally for you, not that it's at the same level as OKC.

I got a message couple of days ago saying "you look so cute I'd almost feel bad hurting you"
like wtf
if you don't respond some of them insult you too. or just won't stop sending messages until you block them.

@trab, some guys will be raring to go until a girl actually agrees to meet up. then they get cold feet and shy away. It's weird, I know.

About the girl, I'm probably romanticizing it more than it deserves, but anyways.
While I was over there backpacking I was traveling from Lyon to Vienna. In Paris I switched trains, and after I sat down this really cute French girl sat down next to me. We started chatting and there was that really weird connection between us that you can't really explain. The whole train ride was just getting to know each other and sharing stories from France and the US. She was going to medical school in Paris and on her way back home to visit family.
I think her stop was Strasburg or somewhere, can't remember but it wasn't Munich. Anyways, I should have gotten off with her and just went with the flow (she asked if I wanted to). For some reason I thought my hostel reservation in Munich was more important though, so I stayed on the train. She even did the whole "turn, smile and wave longingly" while the train was leaving and watched from the station. I still kick myself for not getting off or at least trying to keep connected with her.

I need to drop 10 lbs in the next month or two.

I should make a bet with someone. That'd motivate me.
 

hahaha I think that's my favorite response GIF use in quite a while


Ohhh, I missed you so much! *gives virtual hug*

you're so freaking beautiful <3

aww, thanks! You guys and gals are too much. &#9829;

Hello! I bet you had a great time over there, what was it like?=O

In what respect? There's lots of chicken and curry :p

My experience was very much biased by the fact that the people we went to visit and help out were anticipating and quite welcoming of us, so it's quite possible that I got an overly high interpretation of the general disposition. Most everyone I came into contact with was very gracious and generous, and also very curious.

It's strange as an outsider coming in and seeing the trash and squalor so many of them live in, but they don't act like it's trash and squalor. It's bog standard to them, so they mostly just go about their lives. (mind you, this isn't at all universal standard. Several people in the larger cities are living something closer to contemporary civilized life)
