Downloaded a couple of dating apps recently to make an attempt to go on a few dates, meet someone, all that jazz. Awful mistake. Matched with a grand total of 6 guys in 3 months. 4 instantly unmatched and were just spam swipers, 1 superliked me and was a guy who bullied me in highschool- he said he thought it would be funny to do that when I tried to have a conversation, and the last guy I was having great conversations with for two days, and then he started asking for weird kink things and when I said no blocked me on everything.

I know I'm an unattractive woman. But my standards are pretty low, and my pictures make me look about a 5/10. My standards for men are literally: has any hobbies on their profile, takes decent care of themselves (ie hair is brushed- not talking about weight etc) and is looking for something more than a hookup. That's it. Got my friends and their boyfriends to review my profile, and they all don't understand why I'm not having any success.

I'm in my 20s- what the HELL is wrong with me that I can't get a single guy without ulterior motives to go on a date with me/even have a conversation with me. Even in highschool, I was the butt of every man's joke. I just want to be loved. I want a man to take an interest in me as a person like I take an interest in them beyond the platonic friendships I have with my gay male friends and my friend's boyfriends. I try my damned hardest, and for what?!

Hi guys. So. I'm aroace spec. It's something I've known for a few years now- I'm in my early 20s, and I dated a guy for 9 months in highschool, but we broke up when we were 18.

Recently, my parents (my mum in particular) are attempting to get me to join dating apps (particularly religious apps) in order to 'meet someone.' I really, really, do not want to. It makes me ill thinking about it. They're doing this purely because in their words I deserve happiness, but I can't think of anything that'd make me more unhappy. I have plenty of friends (who admittedly are frequently busy). I fill my free time doing stuff I love. I have my family and my dog.

Their nagging has gotten to the point I gave in and downloaded bumble, thinking I could maybe use the BFF feature to try and make friends instead secretly if I HAVE to meet someone online. I've set out my boundaries to my parents, and they keep on pushing anyway. I can't financially afford to leave as I'm still in college (am on summer break at the minute).

What do I do here?!

Hi guys! Just wondering what platform tickets are usually sold on for DNP's tours + how much a UK meet and greet usually is?

Went to Doomed and TIT but completely can't remember the platform, and I've never gotten a M&G before + am going to ask my friend to get me a ticket as I'll be in work when tickets go on sale!
