Unmatched someone: I was talking about how the movie Avatar is a blatant allegory for native/indigenous populations and the person got offended that I would “put real life events into a movie about blue people”
Been unmatched: the person had a series of 4 almost identical selfies but each one had different anime boys edited in as if they were hanging out (amazing bit. Perfect joke) and my opening line was “i hate when people have only group photos. It makes it so difficult to tell when one I matched with”. I was called an idiot and unmatched within 5 minutes.
Wtf? I feel like where someone is from matters the least out of any dating quality when searching for a partner.
Honestly if anything growing up a certain way and then no longer being that shows growth and willingness to change. Both good qualities.
according to the women I meet you can’t ever change. probably because they themselves haven’t ever changed.
like I have had people argue with me that I am a Catholic because I was born into a catholic family and baptized, even though I haven’t ever been to church since I was like 10 years old. they tell me I’m lying to myself when I say I’m agnostic/atheist. It’s weird.
I mean, the Catholic kids who had to take CCD class after school tried to tell me the same thing, but we were 7. I’ve never had an adult tell me that parental religion is inescapable.
My last relationship ended because I told her I used to smoke weed. When I met her, I had already been about 18 months without a smoke, we didn’t start dating until 6 months after first getting to know each others. So by the time things got “official” I had been about 2 years without a single smoke. But according to her, that was a deal breaker and apparently people can’t change, I think she was trying to tell me that I’ll start smoking at any moment now.
Well, I guess she was right, since last weekend I smoked two joints, one on Friday and one on the Saturday. But this was about 14 months after we broke up. But yeah, she was totally correct with that one. The only good thing was that we were officially dating for like 6 to 8 weeks, so it wasn’t like a huge loss and devastation.
Anyway, that sort of put me off from dating, probably for good. I decided that if someone knocks on my door and tells me that we are now dating, I’ll try it out. But I won’t be seeking anything anymore. Its not worth the hassle at this point, I’m getting too old and I’m a introvert anyway. I’m fine with hanging alone at home, I can listen to whatever music I want, I can watch whatever movie/tv-show I want, I can play whatever game I like, I come and go however I want.
In the sense the poster is talking about you’re correct mostly, but when you’re marrying outside the country/culture it is harder and may not be worth it for some.
