bsp77 09/27/22 6:55:47 PM #43 | Mr_hulk88 posted... Your opinion. It's pretty weird in mine.Once again, you are in the minority on this one. Cool if you want to behave that way, but know that any woman you are interested in is probably chatting with multiple guys. So your judgment is just that, judgmental. I specifically said that I find it disrepectful to be openly dating 2 people.I think our views on the definition of dating differ. Simply chatting or going on a first date isn't dating someone. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

bsp77 09/27/22 5:14:40 PM #36 | Mr_hulk88 posted... He literally said he wasn't that into her.I gave advice that almost anyone would give. Dating 2 people right at the very beginning is completely normal. People do it all the time and it's not considered a big deal before promises are made. If you think it is disrespectful and cringe, you need to understand that that flies in the face of what almost everyone does today. You seem to think you know me and you seem to have something out for me which is not based on the reality of who I am at all. I am exceedingly anti cheating and I am also all about honesty. I generally try really hard to help people here and in real life. I admit that sometimes I can make snarky comments and maybe that comes off bad, but ultimately I do wish people here the best. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

Even going on a date or two with multiple people is completely normal and almost everyone says there is nothing wrong with that. I am not talking about sex, I am not talking about a committed relationship, I am not talking about cheating or lying or deceitfulness.

bsp77 09/27/22 3:25:53 PM #30 | Smackems posted... I think you may be looking too deep into what folks consider a hit colloquiallyI am just going by the normal industry terms. There are lots of bands in the 80s dubbed one-hit wonders, and many had a couple songs that also got a tiny bit of rock or college radio airplay. But when talking about one massive hit and a couple blips, that is still a one-hit wonder. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

Was good enough to be in a Tony Hawk game, and those games were known for their soundtrack.It was never even released to radio and never charted anywhere uwnim posted... Yes. They had 2 songs. This and the one tc mentioned.Depends on what counts as a hit. In the US, Smooth Criminal hit #28 overall and #1 on Alternative radio. Movies never charted overall and hit #18 on Alternative. I would argue only one was a hit. In the UK, Smooth Criminal hit #3 and Movies hit #5, so maybe a 2-hit wonder in the UK. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

I remember being unsure if she was kind of a traditional or modern woman or somewhere in between.Yeah, looks like you made the right choice.

bsp77 09/26/22 7:53:37 PM #123 | Good god this argument got so much worse. Think people on both sides of this are getting a little nuts. Personally I don't really like the idea of ghosting, but I'm not gonna go out of my way to condemn those who do it. It is obvious why many of them do it. They aren't all horrible human beings with no empathy. Also, to be blunt, if being ghosted is so traumatic, maybe you aren't in a place to date. It's not that big of a deal. Now I don't mean if it happens in a relationship, that is clearly horrible. I mean that if you get ghosted and have only been messaging or had a simple date, just get over it. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

bsp77 09/26/22 4:40:42 PM #54 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Maybe the guys that stay on there are worse than the guys that are only on there for a bit, so it gets skewed away from average at any given point in time, even if those who have ever used it is normal. And this makes sense of course, because decent guys often find someone, whether through the app or in person, and therefore leave them. I have had a few short relationships due to the apps and a 2 year one. I also have a couple of guy friends that are in current relationships due to the apps. And I have a close female friend of mine who just got married from a guy she met online.. What's funny is she was actually the 1st person I ever online dated but we ended up just becoming friends.

And that's happened to me twice so far.That's fair [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I have simply never experienced this negativity myself and have never done this to another.

Topic | Latest Discourse: Is Ghosting clear communication? |
bsp77 09/26/22 3:30:14 PM #30 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yeah, I don't think ghosting after a single date is a huge deal. It's happened to me and I just moved on. For myself, I always communicated to women when not interested, but they have all responded politely. I know women have had many not-so-polite reactions. And I don't even consider it ghosting if messaging simply stops before a date has even happened. --- Currently playing: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 |

bsp77 09/25/22 10:28:05 AM #28 | Luckily I can't think of anything truly bad. Maybe the day that my vacation plans got messed up by being dicked around by Air Canada. My gf and I got stuck in Montreal (not our final destination) and it was an exceedingly stressful day. But we made the most of it, changed our plans, and just spent a few days in Montreal. So the next few days were fun. The way we handled that together without ever arguing confirmed I should marry her. We are now engaged.

Oh okay, so they are just seeking attention like they usually do and their using the traumatic events of women they've allegedly met for it to boot.You really are a terrible person. Also, it is a lot higher than 1 in 6. That is the reported number. I know so many women who have been victims of assault (not just harrassment). Way more than 1 in 6 of my friends. Almost all of those were never reported. Also, I am in a fairly privileged social circle so if what @Gladius_ says about it being more prevalent in poorer and disenfranchised communities, then holy shit.
