Am I overthinking this? (Texting girl I met off Hinge leading up to our first date)

I matched with a girl on Hinge a couple of days ago; we hit it off and exchanged numbers. I set up for us to meet up for drinks this Tuesday. We have been texting fairly often and she has been flirty with me the whole time (e.g., telling me I'm handsome, sending me pictures of herself, etc.). She even sent me a possible booty call text around 12 am on Friday (i.e., "I'm wide awake, what are you up to anon?"). Of course I was already asleep and didn't reply until the morning. Her and I haven't texted since around 9 am yesterday. Should I keep trying to text her or just play it cool? Personally I would rather holding off on the texting so we actually have something to talk about on our date. I plan on texting her nonetheless either tomorrow night or Tuesday morning to verify that the date is still on. I guess I'm just worried that she might take it as I'm not interested. I appreciate any replies! Submitted December 13, 2021 at 01:57AM I matched

I saw an incredibly attractive stranger and sad that I may never see him again

I was at a restaurant with my friend today having a laugh and just a good time. Then she noticed a guy walked with with his parents and said that he looked like my type? We sat on the level above but could see the floor below and he was directly in my line of sight if I turned to the left and looked down. But he was sat on the ground floor facing us directly. My friend said he immediately looked up at us and noticed us a few times but sat down and started ordering. Restaurant was fairly empty so it was us, two tables on our level (away from his line of sight) with only him and his family below. Throughout the night, I tried not to look but then my friend mentioned that he kept looking up so my curiosity got the better of me and I caught his eye and turned away quickly. This happened several times over the course of the night. At one point he came upstairs to use the toilet and he looked at me when he went up and as he was going back down. At one point when I turned my head to see if

How realistic and common do you think this lifestyle is/will be in the coming years?

A guy who lives alone and is single, but makes decent money and just gets his intimacy/companionship needs met monthly by hiring a variety of escorts every month I think that reality is much more achievable and realistic for me personally, as I enter my 30s here with 0 prospects romantically Submitted December 13, 2021 at 02:06AM A guy who lives alone and is single, but makes decent money and just gets his intimacy/companionship needs met monthly by hiring a variety of escorts every monthI think that reality is much more achievable and realistic for me personally, as I enter my 30s here with 0 prospects romantically

BOOM! I found the question I need to ask!(M)

When you go on a first date is it best to slowly come out of your shell or just be 100% you with as much confidence (not being cocky, show-off etc.)? I havnt gone on a date in 4 years and next year I wanna give it a go, so I’m trying to piece together advice and experience of other people and see what I feel will be beneficial for myself. Most appreciated, not an easy question!

Best dating apps?

Simply put. What are the best dating apps? Ones with purchases and without. Submitted December 13, 2021 at 02:13AM Simply put. What are the best dating apps? Ones with purchases and without.

I am confused

Hi, I'm 22 years old and I have a big problem! I was raised by my grandmother and her daughters because my parents didn't had the time (work)! So the thing is that I have always gotten a lot of compliments from other very beautiful woman and actually they came to me many times to talk but I always had some kind of a blocked towards woman because of my very strict feminist upbringing by my two aunts. Somehow I managed that problem and so at the age of 16 I was able to talk to woman BUT: I hate it to say it but l am 22 years old and I love woman who are older than me. Of course not at the age of 40,50,60,70.. but woman who are 25-39. l just don't know what I could do against that but I really love elegant older woman like Monica Bellucci in her prime or Kate Winslet or Alizée ( oh god I love her, she was so beautiful!) and I love things like when the woman is stroking your hair etc. My question is this, how can a 22 years old young man be able to date an elegant beautifu

/u/MrDalliardMrDalliard on Whats your “aha I should’ve known i was ace moment”?

I was always Jealous of uni cellular organisms, because they reproduced asexually. I also, often surreptitiously, fantasise about moving to a planet where everyone reproduced asexually. So I don't have to deal with the whole sex thing. This was all throughout my teen years. AND I still only found out my sexuality when I was 21. December 12, 2021 at 11:49PM

Classic Pregnancy Scare Post (with an added spice of I have a panic disorder)

Hi, So - I (21F) have been with my bf (22m) for 2 years and we use condoms every time we have sex as I am not on birth control. Aprox. 2 weeks ago we were fooling around a bit as a prelude and he started rubbing himself (without a condom) around the vulva and got very close to the vaginal opening (everything is blurry but the tip might have been barely inserted) for around 5 minutes. Then, he put on a condom and everything proceeded as usual. Now, he comes very slowly (takes around half an hour usually - maybe Im just bad in bed), but still I never usually let him do stuff like this cause I am incredibly, incredibly paranoid. Instantly after we've ended I've started to panic as I was in my fertile window. Now it's 2 weeks later, my period was due like 1-2 days ago but I am and have been freaking out for 2 weeks straight. The only symptom I've had has been sore breasts. As mentioned above, I have a panic disorder and I have previously had many health related false panic

On Tinder randomly unmatched

Hey guys, I have an Issue with tinder, I am a 20 year old decent looking 5'7 guy with terrible game and literally no dating experience, even though I have some female friends. I do have a couple matches but I don't text most of those because even though I am not the perfect guy I have quite high standards on tinder. I don't like texting at all so when I do text, the girl must be rly beautiful or exactly my type. Well yesterday a 18 year old girl that was exactly my type matches with me, so I texted her. We texted yesterday and today and I thought it is going quite well. But she unmatched me completely radmon at some point. Throughout the conversation I tried to set up a date but she didn't seem like Totally into it. So I figured she must want to get to know each other more first. So I tried to keep the conversation alive even though I'm complete trash at that and at some point we talked about school and her school subjects. After I sent one last question about th

/u/iwtmmhlbsocn on Guys tell me I’m fine and not broken.

I hear you. I am 32, never been in a relationship, rarely ever feel attracted to someone and for the life of me I do not understand what sexual attraction is. (Because, how can we know what it feels like to not feel something, that we have never felt before? So I guess you'll just somehow know. I don't need to have sex in order to find out it repulses me) I get the frustration that comes with 'you just haven't found the one yet'. I get it all the time with questions about babies. 'You don't want children? Wait until you've found the one!' No. Just no. (If you apply the same logic - how could I know I don't want a baby if I have never felt I wanted a baby before? I just know. I don't need to have a baby in order to find out I didn't want one in the first place.) It's pretty difficult to explain what panromantic asexuality is to close-minded people, so I usually keep it vague. But there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. It'

I hung out with my QPP and achieved optimal gender presentation :). I’m also working on a coming-out animation to show to my friend, and it’s nearly finished so that’s giving me some dopamine. The weekend is nearly over, but hopefully this will be enough to last me to winter break! December 12, 2021 at 11:14PM
