All this time and I've never noticed that McCree has the finest cakes of them all.😌

Since this is the only experience I can draw upon, I just don't know. I had fun, she had fun and I guess that's what matters. I thought I would feel more, if that makes any sense? I'm taking a break from porn/masturbation for a long time, that's for sure.
The first time can often be disappointing, also not 'finishing' is common too. It seems you're pretty normal.

Yes I think I'll try to get to as many as I can! I love how sociable everyone is :D which gaffer did you go with? We should try meet up there next time!

Yeah I was surprised how everyone was willing to go up to random strangers and talk. I guess it's easier when you know you can just talk about games. It's a shame when they come up and start talking about trash games though, but I guess nobody is perfect :p

The gaffer used to post in here but I can't remember his username (sorry) and yeah we should meet up. If a guy comes up to you and whispers, "believe" into your ear then it's me .

I'm really shaken, I think I've just been catfished. I'm 18 and have no experience - I was upfront about this in my bio. I was matched and chatted with a guy, 'two year older', this evening. I got very excited, chat went past flirty, and I suddenly thought this seemed too good to be true. I've had mental health issues in the past and was unsure whether I was just being paranoid. I asked the guy to verify himself (in a less robotic way) and he immediately unmatched.

I deleted my profile after 10 minutes really nasty minutes of spiralling fear. I emailed the app service address as there was no report feature, and laid out the details.

I've avoided posting specifics because I'm concerned the guy might attempt to verify any of my information. I don't want to be any more unsafe.

I need some advice for what I should do now, and if I've done the right thing already. I feel bloody disgusting. Any tips on not being catfished - I know there's always a risk involved?

I can DM any specifics if it would be necessary.

Not to belittle your experience or anything, but this is a relatively minor incident if all he did was unmatch. If i had a dollar for every guy that blocked my ass on grindr the moment I walked out the door to go to their house, I'd have 7 dollars.
 
Her English "efforts" are trash. Log off. No, delete the account.

No way am I missing out on seeing her live. :p

Sorry that you had to experience that. I wouldn't worry because this happens frequently. Did something out of the ordinary happen that is making you feel unsafe?

No I understand. It was Surge so I expecting it to be a bit less of a piss-take. First time using a gay app, I knew the reputations, definitely still freaked from inexperience.
Feeling a bit more together now, my main worry was that the guy in retrospect clearly lied on quite a few things. Talked about what he liked then suddenly mentioned he was a virgin to mirror my response. You're right, un-matching's definitely doesn't threaten me.

If I do decide to re-explore (I won't risk going back to Surge), what's a good best practice to prevent catfishing?

Thinking now, from reading your's and KmA's response nothing happened - lying manipulative chat that got cut off. I asked the guy to verify out of common sense/suspicion. He couldn't :(

Something to learn from/get used or wise to.

It's 2 in the morning here and you've both helped me see this much more rationally.

Seriously thanks

If you decide to re-explore apps and you have a decent conversation with someone, you can ask for their Instagram, Snapchat or ask them if they have more pictures. I think after getting used to apps and dating sites you start to pick up on genuine conversations. It's always scary the first time but good for you for trying one.
 
I think I've realized I'm not all that comfortable with sex on the first date. Or really much intimacy at all. It feels like I have to force myself. I'm just not really a "lust at first sight" person. Unless the dude is stupidly hot but that's not the sort of dude I'm attracting.

Really? You're not comfortable with anything? I like blowing guys. I can't receive anything in return, though.

It took well over a year of sexual activities for my boyfriend to be able to get me off. Like, I enjoyed having sex and I would often instigate it but I just could never finish. I've always been a nervous person and I think that had a lot to do with it (though other guys could get me off. We weren't together at the time. We were just really good friends but he was the one I wanted so I think nerves killed it). It just took time.

Fun fact: the first time I finished with him was when Hurricane Ivan was making landfall on us. We were both like "does weather turn you on?!" lol. I now look back at the whole thing and laugh. It all worked out in the end.

I tried that like 8 years ago, I don't remember exactly but I think I used a body groomer on one leg and a regular razor on the other (don't think I did my arms), razor will give you a closer shave but depending on how hairy you are it'll be a pain to shave completely with that. Body groomer will be easier at the cost of a (very)slightly less smooth skin.

Alright, I think I'm gonna try a groomer. I'll ask for advice on which one to buy in the shaving thread.


Nope, never even heard of that. I'll have to do some research.

I'm getting a new laptop soon with a Core i7 inside, which can apparently run Overwatch quite well. I'm tempted to double dip on the PC version...

Would definitely recommend it, Mouse and Keyboard make for a completely different experience in shooters. It feels more precise, which makes playing some of the heroes feel a lot better.

I second this. Going from pad to mouse and keyboard will feel weird at first but you'll get used to it.

PC is the way to play shooters after all.

I still have friends playing the PS4 version though, so I probably wouldn't move, but play both. Also it depends what can play the game better, this laptop or my PS4. From what I can tell the i7 6500U can run it at somewhat decent framerates (between 30 and 60 FPS) at around medium settings. I'll probably wait for a sale if anything though.

Cheers, what what apps would you recommend besides grindr and surge?

You didn't ask me but I'll answer.

You should try Tinder and OKCupid.

I personally recommend OKCupid.

Grinder is not the place you want to go if you're looking for something serious. But then again, you could... Mileage may vary.

OKC is awful. I suggest Scruff. You can find anything on any of them though, just don't feel rushed/pressured and know exactly what you want.

So I'm spending my Saturday alternating cleaning my house alone because of lazy roommates and playing WoW while alswatching waiting for the mail because my new iPhone may be delivered today (but I don't know for sure because USPS sucks). Here's hoping he rest of you have a better day lol.

Glad you're having a good day. I'm watching my sister play Twilight Princess.

I enjoyed a Link Between Worlds aside from the renting equipment thing which is what everyone liked apparently.

However I despise Skyward Sword. Ugh.

That exactly the thing I hate about it. Like, is having to rebuy all my shit after each death and having to walk back to wherever I died supposed to be fun?

edit: Finally, I was given the option to actually buy the gear instead of lending it.

I had nothing but pleasant interactions and solid dates with OKC - in addition to meeting my fiance, of course - but I'm also in a major metro area.

I've given up on OKC. Zero dates after actively using it for over half a year. I haven't logged in in months. Nobody messaged me since my last login either. (I would have received an email notification)

I find it's usually better to message people first. It'll even have a psychological effect where they're more willing to talk to you because of it.

does anyone happen to remember that french song i posted in one of these threads like 2-3 years ago. it was a slow song by a woman

EDIT: Okay I spent like the last 30 minutes trying to find it and then I go to YouTube and it just so happens to be in the "Recommended" section even though I haven't listened or searched for it like years. Um, holy fuck. (it was Thievery Corporation ft. Lou Lou Ghelichkhani btw)
