❤ Dating Advice For MaidenFans Thread ❤

Unless NP cares to elaborate what did he mean by "type", it's true it's hard to discern whether the problem is actually there or not.
She posted a photo wearing a KK's Priest shirt...

Nah.

She's kinda tomboyish, and also into hiking, running, triathlons and whatever, and I prefer to spend my weekends at home doing nothing physically taxing. I don't think it's a good fit.

I'm sticking to the plan on finding a girl in China next year.

You know why she's into hiking, running, triathlons and whatever? 'Cause she hasn't been yet
defiled with his stinking Serbian weiner.

No, seriously, I'd say this is kinda borderline.
And I don't mean "Feels like I'm going to lose my mind // You just keep on pushin' my love // Over the borderline"

but this is a type of hobby that kinda changes over time and you could definitely use getting off your arse from time to time (I could too, honestly) and a bird you like is a better motivation than many.
Although with me and wifey it went the opposite way and she lost interest over time. But at the time we were making fun of how we're like when Anthony Kiedis was dating Sporty Spice.

Besides, tomboys are fun and often hotter anyway. Or maybe I'm just forever damaged by Keira trying to pretend to be a bloke in the second Pirates of Caribbean when I was at my most impressionable.

But yeah, I can see where you're coming from.
 
Was a crucial part of the joke which fell flat anyway. Sorry for hurting your feelings.

My feelings were hurt inasmuch as they are concerned with the state of your eternal soul, so you don't need to apologise to me. :ninja:And besides, it was just too good an opportunity for that joke anyway. :D
 
Just posting for fun, not to be taken too seriously.

There’s a really pretty woman that I meet maybe once or twice a month at work. There’s usually some old dudes doing what she does so when I see her there, it’s always a delight. I was filling a bottle at the water dispenser today when she came and we had this conversation:

Woman: “Is there anything left there?” (in the water dispenser)
Me: “Just the last drop.”
Woman: “In case you need more, there are full ones around the corner.”
-some other lines we exchanged relating to the same topic-
Woman: “Anyway, I can change it myself too, no problem.”
Me: “I can help with that.”
She (a woman in her 30s) bursts into nervous schoolgirlish laughter for a couple of seconds, says “Yes” and goes away.

I feel like she reacted as if what I said was totally flirtatious. Just a funny situation with this peculiar woman who sometimes appears so smily and approachable (like today) and other times not so much. Damn pretty woman, though. The kind a guy 5-10 years younger than her could go crazy for. I remember the first time seeing her when I’d just started this job in February. She asked if I’d replaced X and said that we would start to meet frequently.
 
She disappeared from my matches, so that's done for.
I don't know how to smoothly move the conversation to meeting up, but not pushing it as she has a line in her bio that she won't meet up with anyone so easily.
If she wasn’t going to meet up easily, then she wasn’t worth pursuing anyway, imo. The earlier you get to meet up, the better. Texting is the boring part. There’s not much to talk about with a person you’ve never seen. There’s so much more information to go off of in person.

I agree completely.
 
'Texting is the boring part'

I think that says you both want different things rather than texting being boring. Some people like to develop the intellectual part of a relationship, others want to socilise in person ASAP, or jump in the sack ASAP. Or she's read all the disclaimers on the dating app that says don't agree to meet strangers straight away, which is pretty damn sensible in some cases. I mean, he might turn out to like metal with harsh vocals.

I’ll offer my recent Bumble experience: didn’t get any matches at first, then got a couple of matches I didn’t click with and they unmatched me. It was a small blow to the ego but most of all I became frustrated with not getting any new matches, and almost deleted the app. I threw out a couple of profile pictures, changed them with other ones, put up a new prompt (Bumble has these things called prompts) and suddenly some matches started creeping in. The first one I had a genuinely interesting conversation with. Currently she hasn’t responded in a while, claiming to be busy (which I believe). I’m not bothering her, but still hoping she’ll come around as she seems very interesting and cute. The second one is pretty but not very interesting based on the chat so I’m not investing in her. The third one is a hot girl, big boobs, nice face, thought I had a good chat going with her but she hasn’t replied in a while. Hoping she’ll come around, but it doesn’t matter if she won’t. And the fourth I’ve chatted with for about a week now. I set up meeting face to face with her right from the start and that’s what keeps the conversation interesting. She had a prompt that said her perfect Sunday includes a roadtrip so I proposed going for a one-day roadtrip out of town and she agreed. It’s the anticipation that keeps things rolling for me. Quite honestly, I’m mostly interested in getting to bed with her, but in case I don’t, it’ll be good to have somebody accompany me for a change, go for a trip together etc.

I don’t know if Tinder and Bumble actually have any differences people-wise but the latter seems better to me. And I’ve found that even though Bumble was originally supposed to be a place where women send the first message, most of the time they’ve chosen the option to have the guy message first.
 
Motherfucker we talk about tons of stuff and you've never seen me.
Yeah, but MaidenFans is not a dating app :P

If you're texting someone on a dating app, you're looking into meeting that person in real life, which makes texting the boring part for sure.

Just to be clear, I didn't even get to the part of mentioning meeting irl with this girl.
 
Bah, kids these days and their apps.

One of the cutest birds I'd ever picked up was outside of a bar when I couldn't hold my liquor and went out to throw up.

She was in a medical school and was concerned whether I was okay, I said I was and that she was so irresistibly cute I'd kiss her, but, like, not right now, obviously, which made her snigger and then we chatted a bit and set up a date.

I have the most adorable hairdresser in the world. Today I was in her service for the fifth time maybe. We haven’t usually talked much but I’ve always liked how polite, smily and friendly she is. And very beautiful in a unique way. Anyway, she was more talkative today and at the end, as I was paying, told me it was her last month there and she would be travelling for the next three months. I asked her if she’d be back, and when she was unsure, told her I’d like to see her back at that place. That made her giggle but since she’s quite shy, I didn’t want to overextend and go from playful to awkward, so I said goodbye. Afterwards, I started thinking that I could’ve asked for her contact as a means to reach her for future hair sessions in case she won’t return to the same salon. While also taking the flirtatious side up a notch. What do you think, should I have asked for her contact or I did enough already and more would’ve become too personal?

This is easier said than done however ideally you could have told her you'd like to stay in touch and asked if she wanted to get together sometime after she returns from her trip.
