    Ask me zero questions and/or not contribute much to the conversation. I want to get to know you, and I want a partner who is genuinely interested in getting to know me.

    Complain about things.

    Unless it’s something you can keep lighthearted, and maybe make a point with in a funny way. But just bitterly bitching about something in your life is probably the worst (normal) thing you can do. That or treat service staff badly.

    Talk about zodiac signs for an hour. Yeah I’m looking at you Laura, fuck you and your zodiac signs. I don’t care if mercury is retrograde.

    Not say anything.

    Went on a date with a girl I thought was pretty cute, and I heard she had the hots for me. So at first I had high hopes. NGL, I like mysterious but that was too much. All I got was variations of a shrug.

    I’m not proud of what I did, but I made some excuse and just left her alone. I simply couldn’t stand it.

      If the ex somehow comes up in conversation, just say “we just weren’t compatible and broke things off amicably, and are both better people now” and leave it at that

      I made this mistake (had a relationship for 8 years that started when I was 16) at the time, so I had zero dating experience. The girl I had a date with thought: “ok, then this’ll just be a one night stand, he’s not bad looking.”

      More than 6 years later we’re married with a daughter, dog and cat.

        Idk what you mean by “poop post”, but you reminded me of a story my grandma told me about when she was a little girl. She’s from Cuba, and her parents would sometimes take her to visit some distant relatives which were basically mountain people. Like, straight up neanderthal living-in-the-wilderness type stuff.

        She said that they had a “poop stick”, which was like a tree branch they would use to wipe their ass after shitting. It was a community thing too, like a public toilet. Everyone in the village would share it, just rub their shitty ass on it after crapping into (I assume) a hole in the ground.

        My grandma also likes to make things up to be funny, so idk how true that is.

      What if it’s a really nice sturdy table and you don’t want your date taking it home with them?..
