I suppose I have to give you a quick rundown of myself, just so you understand my state of mind.

We ended up breaking up, and my heart broke. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I would have lasting scars from the relationship and from the breakup for years to come. As a result, it is difficult for me to open up to new people and, indeed, even to open up to the idea of another person in my life.

Pros and Cons of Tinder

I never thought I would find anything of worth about Tinder, but after using it for a few days, I find myself surprised. There are actually a few things I like a lot about Tinder.

• A problem I typically have in real life is that the guys I’m interested in don’t know I am, and the petite sinkku naiset lГ¤hellГ¤si guys I’m not interested in ask me out. Tinder solves that problem by “Matching” you and another person only if you both say you’re interested in one another up front, saving you time and angst.
• The messaging app that is in Tinder itself allows you to get to know the person before you go out with them and without giving them your number. This means that when you do go on a date, you don’t have to ask questions like “Where are you from?” but can get down to more meaningful conversation.

• You get matched with people who never message you or who never message you back, which is a pain.
• If you are picky (like me) you can Tinder swipe for ages without finding someone to swipe right on (which obviously depends on personal preferences).
• It is actually a real problem trying to keep my conversations straight in my head. I often get confused and don’t remember what I said to whom and which guy likes what activity.
• You have to watch out for catfishes (which is why I consider anyone with two pictures or less, no bio, or a small bio to be off-limits).

Day 5 & 6: Shattered Expectations

Sometimes I think about my grandparents and great-grandparents and ruminate on how it must have been to date in their time. Leer más «I dated a guy for a while (like, multiple years while), and I was in love with him» →
