the worst part is cleaning up, I so hate condoms because of that

This isn't Sex GAF (does such a thread even exist?) so I won't go too far down the rabbit hole but condoms certainly contain the mess at least.

My girlfriend and I stopped using them really early on (3 years later I still go inside every time, so either her birth control is working, or I'm sterile, or she's barren haha) so it's always a messy affair. But let's be honest, it's MUCH worse for the woman as far as cleanup goes. I just wipe off my junk and carry on.

It's not the biggest deal to talk about sex here, provided you aren't typing out an erotic novel in a post or whatever. Usually I put anything too open or risqué in spoiler tags so people don't have to read it if they don't want to, but there's no real rule other than "don't take it too far"...

...I don't actually know what too far is though because people are generally not trying to push it lol. Johnny Cage was bragging about shit for a while but we more or less heckled him to stop I think.
 
Johnny and Jason's Ultimatum (maybe?) were totally benign compared that one dude -- SPMH? -- who regaled us with detailed, misogynistic comments about banging stripper MILFs or something after his divorce.

I like the vibe this thread has now.

Also, Mega's saga continues to be adorable.

Benign but still totally annoying. The theme they both had was that women should "behave" themselves lmao. Clowns.

compared that one dude -- SPMH? -- who regaled us with detailed, misogynistic comments about banging stripper MILFs or something after his divorce.

This was just pathetic. It wasn't even entertaining, just sad.

Pretty sure that dude was just making shit up too. Then after he got bannned there was someone else who posted crazy shit, and typed the same way... or maybe I'm remembering it wrong.
 
I hope I'm not annoying you too much just yet. Ýall seem like a good bunch. I used to hang out in FakeGAF but they shut that shit down. Plus I've got some solid advice in here so far.
 
What was fakegaf about? I never got it the joke.
It was just a continuation of realpic january where everyone changes their avatar to their real picture every january. FakeGaf was just pretty much a way for us to keep hanging out. But I guess since the thread had no real purpose besides a place for us to hang out they put the axe to it. Everyone just basically moved to discord but I dont go there much anymore. They are some good peeps.

Met a very sweet (and hot ) girl today while ordering Chinese food.

We had some great conversation(I was surprised how well it went since I usually have trouble starting a conversation due to usually not having anything really to talk about. ) and while leaving I gave her my phone number leaving the choice up to her.



I also met her mother there who also seemed to like me so I guess I scored some bonus brownie points with her parents already.

Now we wait.

Tinder is ass

It just showed me a dude who is pretty much My Type and says he is 18 miles away.

The uni he's going to is on the otherside of the state.

Like.... He works at a chain, does tinder think since 1 of their chains is near me he MUST work at that one specifically? This has happened multiple times. App straight up lying.

you got swiped on probably when he was 18 miles away.

Can't tell you how many times i've matched with a girl, only to start having a promising conversation and check her profile to see she's 3800 miles away.

It is Summer break. He could, like, be working a summer job?

Yeah, like McDonalds or Taco Bell. and Tinder showing me a guy who doesn't live near me.(After I set the maximum distance in settings)

Shit, I didn't even consider Tinder working like that.

I'm not sure how to put this, but I really wanted to say that I like reading how you all are faring. I'm rooting for you!

While it probably doesn't matter much, I'm of the opinion that if you want to continue talking later you need to own up to it and be the one sending the first message (asking for her number and texting her, instead of giving her yours).

Asking for her number and texting her conveys your interest a bit better. Giving her yours you avoid a bit of "responsibility", for lack of a better word, while conveying disinterest.

Best of luck!

Paris trip tomorrow.

I'm not regretting it as much as I was before, but I'm still a tad anxious about it I guess.

That said I know I'll have fun there though*, so it'll be alright.

I'll just have to sneakily message the Romanian girl whenever the Kiwi isn't about... 🤔

Especially in Disney 😏

i did not want to pressure her into it ( someone on this thread gave me that tip a few years back ).

+ if she is not interested she can just toss the paper i wrote it on away and we both move on with life without fuss .

and considering the topics of our conversation i like to imagine i made my intentions and interest clear .
 
Have I found the one!?

Have I found the one!?

But she said she didn't like pineapple on pizza..........

No. Not this thread. This argument has killed more threads than nintendoggy 2-esque shitposting ever has.

Sent a message to the girl I'm meeting for lunch this morning suggesting a place and time, it's 10am now and no response. Hoping she'll shoot me a message soon because I had to turn down lunch with some friends for this lol

Self-progress update, feel free to skip:

Still losing weight slowly and building muscle. Having it as a double whammy for my job and increasing my odds of dating has been great motivation lol

Going shopping with my mate and his girlfriend in a week to grab some more clothes, she's brutally honest and has a good eye for clothing fashion and fit. She seems eerily exciting about it haha

I think I'm going to pick up surfing or ice skating again, I miss both of them a lot and figured being good at one might be a cool way to meet more people. Speaking of which, is ice skating a good first date idea? Only problem I can see is that not many Australians have ice skated before, so they might feel uncomfortable or something haha. I guess that would give me an easy out for light physical contact as I teach them though.
 
Well I'm getting ready to go meet the ex fiance and her cousin in a bit here. Its just the 2 of them now. I'm a wee bit nervous. Its like.. they have got married and have families and shit, own busineses ect. I was almost there at one point but I'm just livin in a batchelor pad now and partying like I'm 20 again.

Its almost like I'm embarassed a little or something? I dunno. Just weird. I'll make the best of it. They sound like they want to have a night on the town.

I'm good at that.

Being in a relationship on its own isn't some sort of accomplishment. There's literally no shame in being single if you haven't met the right person.

I wouldn't overthink things. Be proud of your life. You chose it and will continue to choose it.

This is so important to remember. I know people who just break down whenever they're not in relationships and it's sad. Being single and not having kids isn't something to be embarrassed about at all.

Have fun Lookatmego

For sure. Im definitely overthinking it because I overthink everything. I envy what they have but they could very well envy the freedom I have lol. I do have a pretty sweet setup here. Thats not important anyway. She was just talking about how much of a shame it is how everything went down and how we never should have lost touch. (this is the cousin, I still havent talked to the ex.. although both are exes but I only got engaged to the one lol)

Fuck do I have some stories for them though. Should be an interesting night. This is defintely a blast from the past that came out of nowhere. I never thought I would see them ever again. Let alone both at the same time on the other side of the country to go party together lol life is funny.

Have fun Lookatmego
Thank you. I will.

Is there like an unspoken rule on Gaf to not have yourself as your avatar? I feel like I'm always the only one on a thread with myself as my avatar haha.
(sorry for going off topic)

Haha no. Lots of people around here have their real pic as their avi. Just in January a bunch of people do it for the month. Just some random thing that started a while back. Its fun and you get to know people here a little more personally.

I kept my real pic for a while but then people took me too seriously all the time because I have resting bitch face syndrome.



Welp. Time to hop in the shower and head out. *fingers crossed for a good night*
 
The cat hat picture was a a little bit successful on Facebook... No so much on tinder tho :(

Maybe if it was a dog or some other far superior pet it would have garnered more attention 😉 Jk

Also... the girl I was meeting for lunch flaked. Man I feel like such an idiot :( it's doubly weird considering she organised the day and messaged me first (bumble) but whatever. Removed her from the app and she has my number if she ever wants to explain. Onto the next date.
 
I've been told I look like everything from Sean Astin to Bradley Cooper. I really don't get it. Also, I used my pic for RealPic January, but I just identify with my current one.

I have such a generic look that I'm often mistaken for someone else's high school classmate all the time.

I didn't even go to high school in Florida.

I'm not cool enough to look like a celebrity, tho I guess someone said I looked like Harry Potter one time. Could have at least said a genderbent Harry Potter.... ._.
 
I always have myself as an avatar. IDGAF.

I'm surprised you don't get a flood of dorks sending you dm's on here tbh

...could have meant hermoine? Though I guess that's still really only a compliment if it was given within the last 5 years #optimism

I've been told I look like everything from Sean Astin to Bradley Cooper.

I shaved my head last year and thought I looked a bit too mean. Suspicions were confirmed when a group of girls ran up to me at a restaurant wanting my autograph because they thought I was an actor from prison break. I still don't know which character they thought I was lmao

So what's the worst that these Tinder bots can do to you? I don't have Tinder yet but I imagine I'd always be worried about opening up about myself to someone in fear of that they may just be playing me in some way. I'm really paranoid about that stuff.

Don't click links and don't join them on Skype or whatever. You should either be talking in Tinder, in Text, or in Real Life. Do that, you'll be fine.

Ah crap, top of the page. Ummm, so I was getting fitted for a wedding the other day and the girl there and I started chatting about school and whatnot. She was really cute, but also a smoker, so I didn't try asking for her number.

This isn't Sex GAF (does such a thread even exist?) so I won't go too far down the rabbit hole but condoms certainly contain the mess at least.

My girlfriend and I stopped using them really early on (3 years later I still go inside every time, so either her birth control is working, or I'm sterile, or she's barren haha) so it's always a messy affair. But let's be honest, it's MUCH worse for the woman as far as cleanup goes. I just wipe off my junk and carry on.

I don't mean to interject, but you don't pee afterwards?
