Popular Post limichelle Posted January 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2022 I signed up for Tinder a week ago and matched with a guy I’ve been talking too since then. We’re meeting Saturday at a coffee shop. I noticed some things about me that have changed. Maybe it’s because I’m older or because of my past trauma. I’m more relaxed with my expectations. Before I would always be ten steps ahead, head In the clouds. I’m looking at this as if I’m meeting a new friend. He’s been through Bariatric surgery and I’m starting the process of the surgery. He and I have things in common. If anything we’ll have a nice chat and hopefully a friendship if we’re vibing can develop. I’m not asking for advice it’s more of an update. I’m now after a year and a half putting myself back out there since the end of my last relationship. 4 1 Link to comment

BeaTlesFan77 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Good for you putting yourself out there again! I've just been told not to go into those with expectations. Just treat it as meeting someone for a drink. Hope all goes well. 1 Link to comment

Hey! So that same night I signed up I matched with about ten guys but only three wanted to talk. Then the two other guys faded and I remained talking to the guy I’m talking too now. I saw I had 100 matches but that was only if I paid for the app. Lol Or more like 100 guys that swiped right but that doesn’t mean anything. Because a lot of people just swipe right on everyone.

You also answered my follow up question which was did you have to pay anything to get matches. Hopefully all goes well with your upcoming meeting. 1 Link to comment

Even if nothing develops, a cup o' Joe with a pleasant stranger can be interesting and fun. If that's how you can approach every potential match, it takes the rollercoaster effect out of meeting people and could land you in synergy with someone fabulous at some point.

smackie9 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 You know what...let that 100 guys boost your confidence regardless. let it feel good. The responses are a positive sign right? Onward and upward. Happy thoughts! Link to comment
