Janpath, you chaotic little heartthrob.

okay but can we talk about how inorganic dating apps feel???

like bumble, hinge, whatever i open them and it’s just:

hey!

hey, what's up? :)

wanna meet?

no i don’t wanna meet!!! i wanna text stupid things for a week and then bond over niche hobbies or pretentious films before MAYBE considering coffee in a neutral public space where i still panic and end up saying something like "so do you believe in ghosts?"

like everyone on there is just collecting people. vibes are off. no one’s interested in actual conversations. they want instant chemistry or a scheduled meet cute and i’m just out here overthinking how many song recommendations make me seem friendly & engaging but not unhinged!

and don’t get me wrong, talking to real people in person is also terrifying. my brain goes full static mode. like "haha yes i am human also. love the weather. do you like...oxygen?"

so here we are: stuck between soul sucking digital small talk and real life paralysis.

i’m either ghosting or dissociating, there's no in between.

anyway. dating is a scam. someone please just send me a well-written letter and a playlist and we can go from there.
