[nudemacusers]

I almost want to text #2 back and be like "Hey. If you don't have much going on next Friday night I'll eat you out." 

edit: or... "Hey, was I imagining things (or just drunk) but I thought we seemed to click well together."

[Phoenix Dark]

It's gonna be alright bro.

[Atramental]

 

Were you expecting me to send those texts instead, Mac?

I'm crazy but NOT that crazy.

[Atramental]

Okay...

But this trial and error shit is fucking painful and expensive (both emotionally & financially).

edit:
Oh, you guys would probably get a kick out of this ( -ish ) :

Just keep reminding yourself that you've done this before, ie you went on a successful date with a chick from the internet. Doing it again is nothing to worry about OR stress over. Whether it happens immediately or takes a bit is irrelevant...

[Atramental]

#3 is still texting me so... I've got that going for me.

[Huff]

Flannel boy eventually found flannel girl so I have faith in you altra!

[Atramental]

Was Flannel Boy worse off than me?

Actually, is there a way someone could link me to the whole "Flannel Saga"?

[chronovore]

Who needs the 31 days of horror when we got this thread

I know, right? The suspense is palpable.

[brawndolicious]

Unless you're trying to marry a girl, you don't have to learn from your "mistakes". You just roll with them. Also don't act like dating is a thing that is really draining because gotdam that looks fucking desperate. The reality is that you didn't stay a virgin because you're a benchwarmer, but because you skipped the stupid, meaningless mistakes most of us made when we we got the opportunity. And now you're a prime piece of man-hymen intact masculinity.

Sometimes, everyone's a pussy but you're the only type that gets to be on a pedestal. :fistbump

not losing it for the sake of it

or religious bs

[Atramental]

Oh... just thought of this but should I get a HPV vaccination or any sort of vaccination before doing it?

[Samson Manhug]

Stop trolling

[nudemacusers]

careful, if you keep joking about being a pathetic loser you'll get stuck that way. it's like crossing your eyes too long.

[El Babua]

Just like you being a fan of the little girl cartoons?

You are too old for one. 

If you give a girl cervical cancer, that's on her.

[Atramental]

Man... They didn't teach us jack shit in abstinence only sex ed at my religious school...

Really? seems like what they taught you worked

Kinda seeing two people. Both are semi long distance (1-2 hours away). I like both for different reasons.

This is totes going to blow up in my face.

[Atramental]

Is there anyway to add more "zest" to text convos before the first date without setting off red flags?

I'm getting tired of talking about movies, tv shows, pets, food, travel, etc. and this is only girl #3. 

I can't imagine doing this 10 more times with 10 (or more) completely different girls. 

[CatsCatsCats]

What do you want to talk about?

[I'm a Puppy!]

Oh I don't think that's gonna be an issue

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Welcome to the dating life, bryh.  Prepare to have the same conversations over and over.  You will find out why there are people who dread being single, even if it means being in a shitty relationship.

What do you want to talk about?

Dank maymays

[Atramental]

Fuuuuuuuck 

What do you want to talk about?

Philosophy.
Sexy, kinky stuff.
Dank Memes.

Kidding about the 1st and 3rd one.

edit: I guess that it helps that girl #3 is a bit of a weeaboo and I can pull on her weeb heartstrings. Today I brought up Japanese food and how my bro and I were planning on visiting Japan one day. And a couple of days before that I brought up anime.

[Madrun Badrun]

This is how I tinder,  I don't talk so much.   After a day or two max I say something like it was nice talking to you text me sometime #.  If she texts, I set up a date instead of just talking more.  It saves energy and leaves small talk topics for the first date.  That being said I've only ever got short term hookups out of tinder and rotten first dates. 

[fistfulofmetal]

Short Term Hookups and Rotten First Dates is my favorite 80's synthpop album.

[Madrun Badrun]

Crying (It's the music that plays in my dreams) was a good song from that album.

I don't understand how a guy with your level of overanalysis could have this problem. Why don't you just text about stuff you find interesting in order to find out more about them? You could start off by talking about college majors and then casually mentioning that you took a little bit of extra time to graduate because you got expelled from BJU for being an atheist. Boom you're in the philosophy zone of conversation.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

As I've said before, texting for me is only really for setting up the next date or shit like "Had a great time".  It's total shit as a conversation medium unless you know her well, are in tune with each other's emotions and personality, etc.

[Atramental]

I'm probably not setting up boundaries as well as I could because all three girls have consistently texted me first, several days before the date. And then, on and off, they text me every other day.

Also, it probably doesn't help that I deliberately made my tinder bio very vague. Well... actually it does help because I don't end up pigeonholing myself as one thing.

[Atramental]

Had a pretty engaging text conversation about design with #3.

She's studying to be a costume designer and I'm a graphic designer so there is some overlap in both of our industries.

And our date is still on for Saturday. Here's hoping I don't scare this one away. And she has more control over the situation so that helps.

 Wha? What's so funny?

[chronovore]

Pallando, I found a new, winning technique for you:

[Phoenix Dark]

Most younger people text more than talk on the phone. Personally I prefer to text as well.

Sounds like this could be s good date for you. No reason to be nervous, you've successfully done this before and I bet you'll do fine here too. And as always ask questions and be interested in what she's saying. Not "what do you like to do? Cool, so what do you like to eat? Ok. What are your hobbies?" An actual conversation.

[Madrun Badrun]

Wha? What's so funny?

edit: Oh. You're just drunk.

If I remember, I wasn't laughing at you just the idea of having an engaging conversation about design.   

[Atramental]

Date is all set up.

Gonna drive an hour to Asheville and then eat deliscious Indian food with this girl then possibly walk around and get some tea.

(She was kinda adamant about not drinking too much.)
