I've never dated strangers before and it occured to me that I always assumed that after a few dates, there was an implied exclusivity. Not commitment, but it does makes me uncomfortable that the person I have a connection with is still looking elsewhere rather than seeing if the existing potential develops into a serious relationship.

Would it be weird to bring it up with someone? I'm trying online dating and this is like a whole new world 😂

Went on a short coffee date with a person who was nice, but I just don’t think we’re compatible. What’s a kind text I can send to explain, after they said we should see each other again?

I keep watching Schitt's Creek reruns now and then. It makes me feel warm and mushy, but also super lonely. So tired of being perpetually single. I know it's been posted about here a bunch of times before but it still sucks. Venting and knowing you're not alone, helps a tiny bit. =) Also does anybody else thing Patrick is essentially just a 'too good to be true' fantasy boyfriend Dan Levy dreamed up and put on the show?

Felt particularly good about how I looked today. And when I saw that a certain someone wasn’t at the office, I felt disappointed. Didn’t realize I was attracted until then. How do I un-realize it? 🤦🏼‍♀️

What are you currently looking for? Like the answer below so we can get an idea of what sort of relationships, entanglements, hookups, etc, people are looking for in the bowl.

Single 24 year old here. Recently joined Hinge. I am barely getting any activity. I'm a former OKCupid user and I always got something there. Do people not use Hinge or is there something wrong with me? I'm a fit average height guy and I am not ugly. Looking for LTR especially now in the time of Corona. Didn't bother with human interaction before tbh but this loneliness is creeping up. 😔

Who's free tn and wants to mingle? 26/m
