Well, now she knows he's not worth the trouble of the first date.

[–] ecks90@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago (15 children)

Almost as infuriating as giving chatGPT compilation errors and going in circles for a code fix

To play the devils advocate here, maybe music man has gotten ridiculed before with this question on his music preference. When I'm driving by myself, I'll fire up youtube and listen to all sorts of random stuff. But I'd never subject my wife to it as I know we don't share interest in some things.

But how did you find out you have different tastes without first ever sharing your music tastes

The app worked, you got to know her true colors rather quickly. Imagine putting up with passive aggressive shit like that your whole life, or even for a night.

People do that when they don’t have an answer. I can’t remember the last song I’ve saved, for instance.

People do that when they don’t have an answer

People do that when they don't know the basics of interacting with another human being.

Just say whatever song you like. It's better than acting like a jerk. Even saying "I can't remember, I haven't heard a song in a long time" is better than being a jerk with a person you just met on a DATING APP.

I think with the horror show dating has become in general, people are becoming more and more afraid to be vulnerable in even the slightest perceived ways. 😞 There's a reason for the loneliness epidemic. Between mass narcissism and guttural fear of winding up with a person who will just use/abuse you, I'm shocked I haven't seen worse. 😐

Probably something like My Little Pony remix

If I have to pry answers out of someone, I'd rather cut my losses and move on.

Does this guy think he's cool or mysterious?

If that person can't share music, god knows what else they can't share

[–] brad@toad.work 17 points 1 year ago

This translates to "I do not have anything impressive to say off the top of my head and I'm panicking now"

[–] alextastic@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Is this real? That was painful to read.

Kudos to you for demonstrating interest in getting to know whoever you cross on these platforms (a rarity these days...) 🙌🏽

I relate to your discomfort. I usually unmatch or block such vibes bc the point of these apps is to date, which implies getting to know each other. If one is unwilling to put in the work (as minimal as it may seem), just spare folx who are interested in the above.

So much has changed in the dating scene. Sometimes, I am asked why I am being nosy or psychoanalyzing them. 🙄 Dude, you're on a dating app, right?

P.S.: I respect boundaries, but such questions are essential in familiarizing oneself with someone.

“Anyway, how’s your day going?” “Why would I tell a stranger how my days going?”
