RELATIONSHIPS: helping wizards deplete their mana since 2011

[tiesto]

Well, I saw a profile today of a cute girl talking about buying a new Yamaha synth because she teaches piano lessons. I wrote her a message and asked her if she was familiar with the DX7 and mentioned I love old synth music, she was like "thanks for the thoughtful message" and she wants to meet in person. After 1 email... :O

[Oblivion]

It just occurred to me that literally every woman I've dated minus the most recent one, had zero interest in video games.

[Atramental]

2 out of the 6 women I dated legitimately had an interest in video games. (They brought them up. Not me.)

But TBH, I kind of preferred the ones that didn't. 

[Oblivion]

Same, actually. 

[nudemacusers]

Prob cuz ppl who outwardly identify as 'gamers' from the jump are lames with zero depth of personality and scant self awareness.

[Atramental]

Just matched with a raven haired goddess. What do? 

[Atramental]

Going to send this name poem tomorrow:


She's one of those "sapiosexuals" and likes creative guys, according to her bio. 

[Atramental]

You've seen what I'm like in the last thread (and in this current one...). I'm basically distinguished mentally-challenged when it comes to this nonsense.

I may need to hire Shark again for his services...

[toku]

you're gonna be alright, I believe in you

[Atramental]

Btw, making a name poem wasn't originally my bright idea. I nabbed it from this schmuck's article.

Maybe I should test this on other less diserable matches first instead. That way I won't want to neck myself later if I go through with this.

edit: I'll just ask about her dogs. (Like every other guy who lacks an imagination)

Do this and post results, please.

[Boogie]

Ugh, the moment the term "sapiosexual" shows up in a profile, it's an automatic left swipe from me.  So pretentious. 

[nudemacusers]

That too. Shits mad corny. As if people are attracted to idiocy.

[Huff]

From urban dictionary lulz

Something you put on your dating profile if you want to be pretentious.

I'm so intelligent that my sexual kink is attraction to Mensa members. I'm a sapiosexual!

[Madrun Badrun]

Also why don't you write something interesting instead, because that just looks weird, at least to me. Honestly I'd rather read a normal profile with info than someone trying to be funny (?).

Do your local girls really like that stuff? I guess it's all about trying to be funny and stand out?

Edit: Maybe I'm just lame and old fashioned.

Alas, I have what I would consider a "normal" profile, and I rarely get matches on Tinder.  It's been six weeks since my last match.

I don't consider myself funny enough in talking about myself to try for the "quirky" profile, so I've kept mine pretty straightforward.  It's... not really working out for me so much. 

Get a dog.

[tiesto]

Ugh, the moment the term "sapiosexual" shows up in a profile, it's an automatic left swipe from me.  So pretentious. 

How about "old soul"? I see that term and not too sure what it means, urban dictionary has a couple different varied responses.

[nudemacusers]

Labels such as those are fairly arbitrary thus it's probably better to just exist in another's space for a time (either in person or by text/whatever) and let it work itself out. I mean on paper my wife and I have a small venn overlap of interests so I'd probably have swiped left (that's the bad one right?  ) and vice versa. Try not to box yourself in brahs.

Hmm, I don't see that one much.

[Reb]

Maybe they misspelled old soup.

[Atramental]

Last night her distance was 7 miles now it's 57 miles....

Ugh...

I guess it doesn't matter now since she's out of the 35 mile radius that I determined not to go out of this time around.

edit: TFW the only girls that seem to be interested in me are weird hippy girls in Asheville and not the preppy/WASPy girls in Greenville.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're back!

If there's souposexuals then I'm down. Soup is life.

gurl tell me wut u kno bout stew

[Atramental]

Send the fucking poem you coward.

Sent it.

if she was still 7 miles away I would have done something less autistic.

edit: now she's 159 miles away. Now it really doesn't matter. Or she's trying to get as far away from my cringy ass.

Yeah, I'm trying to be more open about the "type" of woman I'd consider these days.

It's just that term triggers me, every time. 

That, and women with a "bull nose ring".  Nope.

[Boogie]

There's definitely a lot of recurring "tropes" in profiles.  But I just assume you'd find the same thing in guys' profiles too.

[Atramental]

That's why I went on that big distinguished mentally-challenged spiel about drawing Garfield as a body builder. Everyone's profile is the same shit ad infinitum.

[nudemacusers]

Solution: create fake uggo fematra profile, send corny ass poems to all the men in your area, scare them away, and have all the women to yourself

[etiolate]

My old hotornot profile is legendary. I believe it was like the Book of Genesis, except describing hotornot. The last line was something like "and then God smiled and clicked 1."

[Atramental]

Another one of my go-to lines. 


Especially when the girl's bio is left blank and doesn't give me much to work with.

[seagrams hotsauce]

You should go for the sapiosexual and just act like a total dumb dumb. Go full Philomena Cunk

[Atramental]

 

[nudemacusers]

Good first comm, now to blow it 

[Atramental]

Fuck.

At least I'm cute, though.

edit: I probably won't respond until tomorrow. I've got to get to bed soon.

[Atramental]

"Sure. And depending on how eager you are to meet up, we could exchange numbers now and get to know each other over dinner this coming weekend."

Eh. Eh? EH? 

[Huff]

Back to the overthinking everything

I think that might have been my favorite part of last season

[Atramental]

"Sure. That's part of it. But I'm not too big into window shopping on here. Are you?"

Did some more wordsmithing.

Sending this now.

[Atramental]

edit: I'll message her again tomorrow and see if she's less indecisive the more I chat with her.

[I'm a Puppy!]

Suddenly I'm reminded what a goddamned miracle it was that we got Pallo laid.

It's almost impressive how much you had to overread into a seven word response from a chick who just called you cute to decide that's she's being "indecisive." Good god man

[Mupepe]

Satisfy that curiosity by getting some dinner with me.

[tiesto]

I've been talking to a girl who lives nearby who seems nice enough, but doesn't have a picture. She wants to go out on Friday, I figured what the hell? I've only went out once with someone who didn't have their picture up and she actually turned out to be pretty good looking, hopefully this is the same.

[I'm a Puppy!]

You know what they said, curiosity got the pussy pounded.

[Madrun Badrun]

Sate that curiosity by getting some dinner with me.

You're a braver man than I.

[Atramental]

Satisfy that curiosity by getting some dinner with me.

Just used this line and attached my phone number with it. Told her to shoot me a text later if she's interested.

Gonna get some sleep and not fret about Julie unless she gets back to me.

[brawndolicious]

My main bit of advice to y'all dating is to be self-aware of when you're in a "high standards" vs "low standards" mode. You don't just stumble into a perfect lady who'll politely ask you to bang. You are going to match (real life or online) with exactly what you are looking for, if such a person exists.

And also regarding sapiosexual girls, I think it means a girl who actually wants somebody who's dumb enough to make the girl feel smart but is also capable of being curious enough to carry on a conversation by asking lots of questions. I mean there was one time on a first date when I was standing outside until 6AM debating philosophy shit I had no idea about by just asking her to explain and there was banter but I was a student more than a debater. She asked me out again immediately before I woke up.

Long story short, sapiosexuals are intense but not necessarily picky or judgmental. So yeah.

Well, the possibility that she's ugly as sin OR really hot but doesn't want people to just hit on her for that is equally likely.

[Atramental]

Also, the reason why I said she's probably indecisive is because I've had women say similar things and string me along ....then *poof* nothing.

I need more than just "I'm curious".

If she doesn't get back to me later then she was just window shopping and blowing smoke up my ass. 

[Huff]

Or she was interested and you blew it

[Atramental]

If I blew it with mupepe's clever line and adding my phone number then I might as well stop now and do something much more productive with my time.

(I didn't send her that gif, btw)

[thisismyusername]

Well, I'm back bitches.

[Atramental]

Well, I'm back bitches.

Sooo... Deets? Or no deets?

[thisismyusername]

Well, I'm back bitches.

Sooo... Deets? Or no deets?

(Image removed from quote.)

Publicly: It's a roller-coaster ride.

Privately: Well, PM me for the deets. I'm not going to post them where Google can cache it. Especially Andy's ass who would just post it in public.

[Tasty]

Lol like your boy troubles are important enough for me to care about.
