Hi anyone up for casual chit chat?

Is my bar too high in this day and age if I want guys to at least ask me out in person instead of reaching out on social media having never met me in person before? I just like when you have the guts to approach me in person instead of hiding behind a keyboard, or start with wanting to get to know me and not coming on too strong if we've never met.

I empathize that it's more comfortable for us to hide behind our keyboards, but I also like a guy with guts and conviction.

How do you feel when your guy repeatedly calls other women hot in front of you and says he’s allowed to appreciate beautiful things? I understand we will never stop finding others attractive but something about this feels disrespectful and I can’t place my finger on what that is.

Alright, did any of the posts here actually lead to real hook-ups? I'm genuinely curious.
