I know that. You know that. In fact, 100% of the respondents in this thread (aside from doc himself) know that.

But if he needs to lean on them one more time then fine, but after I think he needs to realize that he's got all the info he needs to know she's into him and go for it sans kids. Plan on an actual night out, just her and him.

At this point I think he's uncertain he wants to make a move with her for various reasons (maybe it's not been long since she's or he's divorced, maybe he's trying to identify if she's a cougar or a gold digger first, maybe he's concerned about how the situation will play out with all the kids, maybe he's not attracted to her but it's hard to say no to her basically asking him out)

It's funny - we have different reasons for not posting in the "what's on your wrist" thread, but at the end of the day, it is because we both have their best interests in mind.

In my case, it is because all I have on my wrist is hair. Coarse hair. Almost pube like, but a little softer and sits flatter. And I don't want them to have to suffer from that imagery.

You however, well, clearly I have no problem with putting you through said horrible mental images. Maybe you can tell work you have PTSD, and list BP as the cause. I'd like to see how that would work out.

My boss is a jerk of the highest order, so I know if I approached him with that, it would never work.

The only thing on my wrist is Emma Stone. Oh wait...

so ive been seeing that bumble girl i met with like a month back that i mentioned on here, but im just not feeling it.

i dont know why. shes nice, loyal, attractive, always cooks me some good ass food, and we have a good time together. when i think about it logically, she should be perfect, but i just dont get excited to see her. i kind of want to break it off but i feel like i will end up regretting it as soon as i get back into the shit life of online dating again.

You already have your answer.

Don't settle just for settling. You'll regret it in the future.

And you don't have to go back to Bumble. That's what got you in this position in the first place.

You don't know why? You sound young.

The grass is always greener on the other side...till you get there.

Why did it take a month for you to not be "feeling it"?

Doesn't matter what app, site or supermarket you meet people in. Some don't work out. Same people on these apps are the ones we run across IRL...

While what you say is true, the opposite isn't.

Same people we find on bumble and tinder are the people we meet in real life.

Some people we meet in real life are not on bumble and tinder. And those are the ones you want to meet.

Cheers

So you're saying everyone on a dating app or site is not worth meeting?

I'm saying that's the rule, yes.

There are exceptions, I'm sure, as there are in any rule.

EDIT: Just by principle of the matter. People in these apps usually have the wrong motivation, or mismatched desires.

Just the same way you wouldn't want to go out with a woman who got divorced last week and is "looking for a new father to my babies", the motivation to get into these apps is flawed for a meaningful relationship situation.

If both want to hook up, great. Who knows, maybe something will come out of it as well!? Rarely the case.

Solid words here.

On the other end of the spectrum keep in the back of your mind not all women are honest, loyal, cook or attractive. As humans we tend to go for what is wrong based on how we feel and forget about sensibility. Everyone I've ever fallen for was toxic. The ones that I have dated because it looked good on paper, I was never really in to. Welcome to being human.

That's too much of a blanket statement. I've met a shit ton of useless women off the apps/sites, but I have also had relationships last for years with others. Bad eggs everywhere. Can't say everyone on there is no bueno.
