there's so much dating advice content on the internet, and you shouldn't follow any of it, no matter who you are
#like if it's about safety or basic basic hygiene sure#but the rest???#wtf just be real#i know that's cliche but the rules the grifters and even the well meaning people are laying out are CRAZY and overcomplicated#'he didn't try to impress me'#maybe he is just being himself and you don't like him and that's okay#like would you really rather someone do basically a party trick to impress you#than be impressed by their genuine actions and personality#why would you want anyone to be fake just bc they're meeting you for the first time#also when ppl are like 'don't talk about _x_ on the nth date'#girl TALK about whatever feels right and/or you feel is inportant for them to know about you etc#nothing is off the table idk as long as your being real#and if they don't like it#then they are NOT FOR YOU#all these convoluted rules basically encouraging people to hide their true selves lead to bad relationships that are built before thin veils#obv i mean if you're dating for relationships and not just hookups#every new person i dated would know after the first time we met that i am#not religious#childfree and staying that way#commie left#vegan#have multiple animal companions#etc#these things are important to know for embarking on a potentially long term serious relationship#i do not want to waste anyone's time#and i don't want them to waaste mine either
