Agreed, so long as you use good ingredients to start with the resulting meal is almost always passable at the very least.

That sounds like a solid win then!

How do the feel about hydrogen peroxide?

I’m with webghost. I have brand loyalty and brand hatred lists. Marketing people might generalize to oh you don’t know yourself, but there are lines I do not cross. Verizon is dead to me for example. I don’t care if no other providers are available I will never give them money again.

Why are you still giving space to his views? I definitely don’t agree with his worldview but he hated enough alive, maybe his viewpoint should stop being perpetuated.

I haven’t been dating online since 2021 so I can’t really comment on the current scene ^. I hope it treats you well!

I treated internet dating as a numbers game. Hard to get too upset about someone initially just not responding. It would feel more personal to me when we would be talking for a bit and they would just ghost. Your comparison is fair, people put varying levels of effort into their relationships in general.

Yeah I get that. A lot of (male) matches on bumble didn’t engage with me either after I sent a message. I’m not a wordsmith by any means but I always tried to mention something I saw in their profile and ask a question. I figured if anything it showed a bit of effort as a minimum. Never tried tinder.

It worked for me :) Found my awesome husband there. Agreed though, there are definitely women who expect to be pursued.
