Always Be Honest With Your Dating App, Part 8
My Married Mom Friends Are Adorable But Useless
Last night at dinner with one of my dearest friends (who is a married, mom-of-two-kids) I asked for her opinion on the below text, as I feel like I’ve completely lost perspective and can no longer tell when a guy is being genuine or a douche.
Her takeaway: “Who is Drake? And what’s yolo?”
He TOTALLY Gets Me
That moment on a first date when you think you’re totally connecting with him…
Him: “I can’t get any work or writing done in my apartment.”
Me: “Same here! Totally. I can’t concentrate at all in my apartment.”
Him: “Exactly. It’s impossible.”
Me (certain we are on the exact same wavelength): “Right? Because I’ll just look up and see something and be like ‘Oh, I need to clean that.’ Or ‘Yikes, I should mail that bill’ Or ‘Why do I have nothing in my fridge?'”
Him: “Oh. I don’t do THAT. I just get distracted by more fun or interesting things to do.”
Me: “Oh.”
Him: “That’s some serious masochistic behavior.”
Me: “Is it?”
Him: “Yeah. You’re really beating yourself up.”
Me: “Alright, it’s not that bad.”
Him: “It sounds like you have an anxiety disorder.”
He hasn’t called.
We’re Probably Not a Match
This guy was pretty specific….

So I passed because…

I also had to google manifold. And birchbox.
Then, inspired by those google searches, I googled WHY IS EVERYONE SO FUCKING WEIRD? Google thought it knew what I wanted:
Then I just got sad.
