Bring your hottest frying pan to work, have a laugh about the misunderstanding then tell her you two'd have a fun story to tell your future children.

Well I planned on leaving this alone (don't shit where you eat yadda yadda), it's just funny but I deffo will come up on Monday in full Peter Pan garb.

I'm kinda apprehensive of people piling up unconventional labels on the dating profile. It's probably judgemental but there's definitely a whole type attached as far as OKCupid profiles go. I don't think I'm closed to those discussions but I'd rather avoid getting the impression on my first date to be evangelized at.

The % thing became a bit wonky, questions are much less prominent in the UI and when you check it turns out many people only responded to two dozens or so. Less common to be able to compare 50 or more questions. I thought it was more interesting before but I guess the commercial numbers must say the opposite.
I just updated my profile after having scrapped it a few years ago and only leaving an Umberto Eco article in my summary, and holy shit, they really ruined the questions. They used to be interesting survey questions that could help me screen people or be an ice-breaker: opinions on drugs, very general political questions, pet stuff, your disposition for saving money or where to take a date... now half the questions I'm getting are very topical and political, like Do we build the wall?, and What do you think of trans people in bathrooms?, and the other half seems explicitly geared toward sedentary and/or urban lifestyles like "should you and your partner be binging the same tv shows" and "do you like coffee dates"... I got at least four questions about podcasts. I don't know what the French questions are like and mine are clearly localized. Trump really ruined America! :maf

We have all those and the French specific equivalent (Is Macron good for France ?). The most egregious is probably "Parlez vous francais ?". Gun ownership questions or those about creationism don't make a lot of sense over here as well.

OkCupid pet peeves : OkCupid puts in the swipe queue people younger than specified preferences (up to 4 years). I don't mind in principle (there could be a great match just under the arbitrary age limit) but it's to the point they make up 80-90%. Probably has to do with younger demographics being more populous and not wanting you to reach the dreaded "we have no one else to show you" message but still... Especially since they allow to reset all your decisions to pass.

Minor bugs that seemingly won't ever get fixed like resetting the search filter to 25-60 every time you change a variable on your preferences about who you're looking for.

I have a like that keep popping in and out of existence apparently because the person who gave it to me must have moved in the meantime out if my range to somewhere else in the word. It triggers in app notifications. False hopes.

They don't do "we have no one else to show you" anymore. Now they just keep cycling through people you've passed on repeatedly until you finally give in and like and never message.

A year ago they did the repeat but you could reach an end until some people were added (I guess account who logged back or new ones).
I use mostly the search tool to find profiles I like, the Swipe queue I use to see people I excluded from my filters (non-smokers for instance), I generally reset on a regular basis.

The owner of OKCupid also control Tinder, Match.com and Meetic (which was really big in France before the app boom) so I guess they can't undercut their other branches too much commercially though it also, probably, help keep OKCupid distinct enough to not alienate its userbase. Overall the service got worse and sounded a lot better as it existed in 2015 or so, from what I read.

I don't mind the curation via algorithm but there's no downside to being aware of it.

That last one is actually strangely comforting. Like, you don't really have to exist, but you're not totally gone either. The rest of the world happens without you, but you can still check in.

On the other hand, could easily be a 'I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream' story...

Have any of you been in a long distance relationship? Any advice?

To echo our warband's resident Lheorvine Ukris (that's filler), you should have an exit strategy. Unless by long-distance you mean "close enough to drive to on the weekends."

You're going to have to generate intimacy from afar. That's different for each relationship so there's no one size fits all answer for that.

You're going to have to get comfortable with expressing your feelings in a healthy manner. She's not going to be able to reliably read your body language or understand your nonverbal communication for the foreseeable future.

This is probably unnecessary to say as you posted a sex tape on a NeoGAF refugee forum but you're going to have to be able to build sexual intimacy from afar.

Lastly you should accept the fact that you could fail in your endeavor and make peace with that. To inappropriately quote Warhammer 40K in a semi-serious manner as is my custom, "I am Angron, the Eater of Worlds, and I am already dead."

She moved to Arizona for her job. She's a Rez Life admin at one of the colleges there. I think she decided that it would be better to go first to set herself up and get herself situated. She also realized that finally finishing school would be good for myself and it's something I need to do for me. The option of finishing school where she is, is an option, but I'm already 106 credits deep where I am.

But I mean the plan and desire is for me to move out to where she is. She has said she sees a future and that she wants me to come out to her. Though she also thinks I need to visit her first for an obviously needed trial run of living together. She wants me to be successful on my own.

She has reassured me that she is very happy with what we have and that I make her feel ways that no one else has and that our sex has been the best she's had. That she's not intersted in looking for anyone, nor does she think she'd have the time anyway because of her job. If anythings she's more jealous and worried about me. I mean obvuisly we've talked a lot about this and the point is we both want it to continue and think trying long distance first is better. If we can survive that, maybe its as worthwhile as we think or something.

It's not a perfect comparison, but I've stayed close with my best friend while he's lived overseas and far away thanks to him being in the military. We don't talk every day or every week. Sometimes we go a week or two without talking. I like my space and doing my own thing. As long as I have some contact I don't question the streght of my relationship. She and I are somewhat the same that we aren't one of those lovey dovey couple and like our space. When we were together it's not like she was constantly questioning what I was doing or got mad when I did things without her. We enjoy each other's company, but we also are our own people. I think thats one of the things we like about each other.

So I'm not as hopeless about this situation. I mean we'll still talk and play games online. I'll visit her when I can. Are personalities aren't dependent on always being together. So I think a long distance thing can work.

Obviously there's the lack of physical connection. She has sexual appetite as do I, but I mean both of us have gone long stretches without sex. And well I she likes me because in her words "I make her feel special, make her feel like she knows what she's doing, beautiful during sex and outside of it, feel right and normal, not dirty or a whore as other people have". She makes me feel like a worthwhile person and is someone I can be confortable and open with. I have obviously had plenty of issues and it's amazing that I met a person who is actually understanding of me. Which is probably why our sex life has been good. I don't think this is something you can build with just anyone either. We both have hang ups with it comes to sex, so both of us aren't out here just looking for quick fucks.

So I don't know. This where we are at I guess. She's said she's going to wait for me. I'm taking my first steps to resume and finish school. I don't know where things are going to go obviously.

well i just came back from one of the most awkward dates i had in a long, long time.

met up with this pawg who seemed pretty interested in meeting up. when we did however, there were frequent long bouts of uncomfortable, awkward silence. we did manage to have some okay conversation, but it seemed pretty clear she was no longer interested. she barely even smiled. anyway, the date ended with literally no physical contact whatsoever. normally i'm able to get a kiss, or at least a damn hug.  :maf

THAT BEING SAID

while i was disappointed, i'm not going to lose too much sleep over it. while she was a pawg, she was a bit...too much of a pawg if you get my meaning. shame though. she had great tits which i would have loved to fondle and such. alas

The first part isn't recent tho. It's always been like that for me. They might have changed the second (now it's an "intro"). One year ago the idea was that they would only see the message notification if they opened and read the profile or something.

From the FAQ :
Quote
Any introductions you receive will be visible in DoubleTake (look for a "They messaged you!" indicator) and Discovery (look for a blue line under their photos).

I looked more into this and Reddit threads on the matter seems to point you misunderstood Stro, though it's a common misconception. No mutual like required for the message to appear but the person has to open the profile in the Swipe or Search. It's a total crapshoot it will ever be read or even seen. Quite a few anecdotal feedbacks that messages can be buried deep in the queue or only be seen months after the fact. Some people don't like the swipe thing and don't use it.

Honestly I'm thinking of changing shop but I don't know where to go. I tried most of the (free) apps when I was in the most severe of intimacy droughts last year and none really convinced me. Slow dating apps are shit. OkCupid is the only one with less shallow profile and decent usability to search through people. For something more profile / question based I guess some of the older sites pre-app age are like that but meh.

Plus I really need to get on that decent photo effort, just to be 100% sure I wouldn't get more interest like that.

Fun fact for non French speakers : AdopteUnMec is AdoptAGuy and as you may have guessed, it was already playing the fiddle to the tune -now sung by Bumble- of "empowering women on dating sites" (the logo is a lady putting a guy in a grocery caddy) which really was just the old night club trick of "free for the ladies, the men have to pay to enter." The few second hand experiences I read about that weren't really stellar on the matter.

Yes it's still around and fairly popular AFAIK though it took a definite step back (like Meetic) when the Tinder wave flooded the market. Never tried it myself.

Edit : looked it up, fairly expensive for men and people complain a lot about fake or scam profiles, though most agree the moderation is good and don't think it's partly orchestrated by the site itself.

OkCupid on Paris (it's useless anywhere else) has, AFAICT, fairly few obvious fake profiles.

It was the most popular dating site 5 to 10 years ago. It's probably still fairly ubiquitous, especially the farther you get from the handful of massive population centers. It has a feature where a woman can either send the first message OR open her message box to a guy she's interested in. The latter defeat the whole "women are the ones initiating here !" (Like Bumble where the woman who matched with you have to open conversation but apparently will often just send "hey" or "hello" to let the man send the meaty opener.) but I guess it's the most optimal balance between the floodgates of open messaging and having none at all before a mutual match.

Edit : it's definitely seen as more for casual relationships, tho.
