[Billy ray]

If I go near a church I'm sure I'll burst into flame.

There’s your bio done

 

[Sketi]

Congratulations!

Thanks!

I used to post on the old tinder thread a bunch, figured I should share one last tale haha.

 

[SnakeMan86]

Back when I was on them, Hinge was by far the best of the bunch

+ 1 . Met my partner on Hinge. House and a kid later. When dating i found it to be the most genuine of the lot

That’s crazy.

I had a girl recently where we were texting and vibing really well. I said shall we get a drink. She said great except I probably won’t drink as I have a swim in preparing for. I said that’s fine, I haven’t been drinking either, should we get a water instead? She immediately flipped and was offended by it.

Never suggest a drink, back in my dating days (geez sound old) I always suggested ice-cream or sushi. I've never met a girl who didn't like atleast one of them or who didn't want to get either one.

I reckon if you’d said anything other than water you’d be in the clear. I think she thought you were making fun of her.

If people misunderstand your intent like that and flip they aren't worth the hassle. Move on

I'd even call it a red flag.
What is she potentially going to be like when you leave the lights on or forget to put the bins out ?

same with suggesting a walk on the beach - never met a girl who didn't gobble that right up

(that means 2 things..)

That’s fair!

Yeah if someone misses the point or is intentionally obtuse it's probably not worth the effort. Couldn't imagine being in a relationship with someone who's already nit-picky about every little thing before you've even met up.

I don’t think that was the issue though. I will say that the younger generation probably don’t drink as much as we used to.

Yeah I presume that was the case but considering we’d been bantering about many other things, it seemed “out of character”.

That is the issue.

As silly as it sounds food/drink suggestion says alot.

Ice-cream = fun and playful
Sushi = cultured
Alcohol = alcoholic bogan

It's all about the psych and perception

A drink might mean "I just want a root" too to some, maybe that's what happened here?

 

[mr bagcroft]

A more red flag than any at a Chinese communist parade.
You dodged a bullet.

Oh yeah I 100% agree on this.

Nah I don’t think it was like that. Was only a wine aswell. Sounds classier.
