This is a rant, but putting things under “question” is easier isn’t it?
Five things I hate about online/app relationships.
(I’m still going to participate because I have few alternatives; just wanted to rant.
1. I’m just not built for it. When I’m with a woman, looking in her eyes, I can keep her laughing and keep the conversation interesting. I have many flaws, but struggling with flirty fun conversations isn’t one of them. Heck, I’m almost as good at this on the phone as in person, but not quite.
2. I hate the lag in online conversations. I don’t chat with three people at once. If I’m talking to one person and another messages me then I wait until I’m finished with one before I move on to the next. If I’m really busy, I’ll let the person know when would be a better time to talk. I know this is a novel and old fashioned way of thinking, but this is my rant. ✌️
3. The lies. There are so many people who are actually happy dealing with fake people. You make me sick. Oh wait, you want to rationalize this deceptive behavior for me? How about you just go shove a pudding pop in your ass? This is my rant. BTW I’m not even talking about singleness, that lie has been going on forever and sometimes people have reasonable explanations for telling it. I’m talking about guys acting like girls and girls posting fake pics. You should be put in jail for that behavior. It’s fraud.
4. The distrust. I understand this one, because it comes from a lot of what’s in point three. It’s jsut so frustrating to build so many great friendships that never move beyond the online world because people are so affriad you’ll be the next Craigslist killer. Again I don’t blame them, but it sucks sometimes.
5. The addiction. When you finally do meet someone in person, not necessarily someone you originally met online, they can’t put away their electronic devices and live in the moment. If I could press a button and end every electronic communication device for good, I would. YES, even if it meant people would die, because I genuinely believe it would allow more people to actually live a real life. It’s my rant. 👍
