Lol, it’s going to be awkward regardless in my opinion, because you’re meeting for the first time. When I met people from dating apps we never spoke on the phone first, just texted for maybe about a week or so, and then met. All except one of the first dates were actually nice. The last one I went on was cringy, and odd for some reason, I don’t think we spoke enough before meeting and I also don’t think it was what either of us wanted. The first date we went out to eat and shared an apple pie after dinner for dessert, he was really nice, was an engineer, and really made an effort. Our second date was really fun we had a picnic at the park, listen to each other’s music and drew each other a photo. We dated for like 3 months, but I wasn’t feeling it :/ sadly, i wish I was because he was a nice guy. We ended on good terms though, and he ended up finding someone else. Idk if they’re still together, we’re Facebook friends, but he doesn’t post that much. The next guy was very socialable so it wasn’t awkward at all actually, he was also charming, but he had a kid he didn’t tell me about. 😨😱 he “accidentally” mentioned it when we were talking at dinner. It was awkward because I don’t really like kids or even want them now. So that didn’t last long. 🤣 The other guy was really sweet and quirky, we dated for about a month, but we were on completely different paths in life. He was also doing really terrible financially due to him going to college for art, he was in so much debt, and barely made any money to survive, and was almost 30 also smoked a lot of weed. 😬He was sweet though, we still became friends even though it didn’t go anywhere. Stayed in contact and follow each other on social media. I think those were all the online dates I went on. 🤣 I think online dating really gave me a lot of experience in dating, helped me learn what I do and don’t want and I had so many funny/odd memories. I’m over it now, but I’m glad I tried it out. It was a cool experience.
