How can i tell if somebody is actually serious about a date?

So I am 25 and a transgender woman (I'm fairly passable when i try and I'm interested in women if that's relevant). I have been on and off dating sites and general attempts at dating for the past 5 years (mostly on apps though). In that time i have had 5 'dates'. 4 stood me up and the one that didn't thought we were meeting as friends. I get the transgender thing is off putting to people and i'm cool with that, i'm different i get that. I am upfront with people about it and i am open about it. If people aren't okay with it (assuming they even reply after i mention it) i don't press things and leave them be and yet I only ever seem to get stood up. Am i just socially inept? Are they panicking and agreeing not knowing what to say? Is this just what dating is like for most people? I'm quite willing to accept this is either due to me being an idiot or this is just what online dating is like but if there is anything i'm missing i'd be s...

I don't understand how people think using one label is the same as being "locked in". We didn't just give up and legally marry the darkness May 23, 2020 at 12:02AM

/u/acecat20 on I finally got my ace ring. The middle finger is for everyone that told me my asexuality is a phase and I need to see a doctor.

Looks great!! I got my (replacement) ace ring in the mail yesterday. <3 May 23, 2020 at 12:01AM

/u/kasuchans on Rant: r/deadbedrooms pisses me off

people base relationships off of sexual attraction and compatibility, and forget that as we age that often changes. ...it doesn't. That's kinda why that sub exists. For allo people, sex is a key part of creating and maintaining intimacy in a relationship, and they continue to do so well into their 80s and beyond. May 22, 2020 at 11:58PM

/u/SerbalVR on ¿Cómo descubriste que eras asexual?

Te jurooooo, a mí me decían las mismas pelotudeces. Sabía que había algo que no encajaba, entonces me puse a buscar en internet. Luego de un rato encontré la página de AVEN y me cayó. Es una pena que no haya tanto conocimiento de ésto en la comunidad hispano-hablante, che. ¡Bienvenuda y saludos desde Argentina! P.D.: Te olvidaste de poner un "flair", recomiendo usar el indicado May 22, 2020 at 11:54PM

They're not up for sale just yet but given the mostly positive feedback, they will be soon. They'll go up on our etsy store here - https://www.etsy.com/shop/WaywardMasquerade We'll probably introduce them at a 20% discount for a little while. ​ We also have manufactured dragon bagons coming soon as well, they only have three colour combo options, but one of them is rainbow. They're a lower price point and available for preorder here - https://dragonbagons.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders The run is finished, we're just waiting on them to be shipped to us. Shipping is overwhelmed everywhere at the moment, so it's a bit slow. May 22, 2020 at 11:40PM

"I only got my sex drive at around 13" Do they mean they were too old or too young to develop that? In my opinion it may be just right? I don't know, never experienced it May 22, 2020 at 11:30PM

/u/CrazyCorgiQueen on Need a cheap Ace ring? I got you. Walmart has silicone rings for Women and Men (depending on finger size). Men's come in a pack of 2 grey/black. Women's come in a pack of 3 black/white/vary. Recently I grabbed the women's pack and the third ring was purple. They are in the fitness section!

/u/Weirdmix2000 on My Pansexual family friend made this.

That’s exactly what I told her. She’s also getting us matching dragon shirts! May 22, 2020 at 11:07PM

Marry a woman who hires a bagpiper to play on your porch while she does a jig brining you your cake. (Sound on!)

Open to either monogamy or non-monogamy

As a German I am just getting to know OK Cupid. Before that, I had been using Tinder exclusively, it's the most popular dating app around here. Anyway, there seem to be quite a few people on this app too and what I like about OK Cupid, it gives information about people's intent, as opposed to Tinder. What I find particularly interesting is the fact that so many people on there tick the field that they are open to monogamy as well as non-monogamy. And many are looking for hook ups and short time dating. I actually think only a minority of people is like me, exclusively straight, only interested in long term dating, monogamous. I guess I am just surprised, there's of course nothing wrong with that, but so few people seek the type off connection I am looking for, it's just noticeable. What does short time dating even mean? Any Americans care to enlighten me? Is there any point talking to a guy who is open to that considering what I am looking for? Anyway, I am just co...

Can we have a COVID a megathread?

So we can consolidate everything related to trying to date in this frustrating time? Submitted May 22, 2020 at 11:54PM So we can consolidate everything related to trying to date in this frustrating time?
