Hi all,

As our community is still small and not overly active, I thought instead of trying to have a weekly or monthly chatter thread up as a sticky, we could try a perpetual one and see what happens.

So anything you feel doesn’t warrant a post of its own, just put it here.

Cheers and take care!

    Does anyone have advice for a childfree person who wants to date but disdains online dating? Or will this be an impossibility because we are so rare??

    ( Sidenote Ive tried approaching in real life for the last 9 years and I get rejected like Im breathing air.I havent mentioned Im childfree to anybody but yall so…)

      I’m not trying to be mean to you, but looking at your posts, you sound like a very extreme person. If you want friends or someone to date, it sounds like FuckCars is the place you should look for that in. Generally most people don’t think that way, so you’ve cornered yourself. Wish you luck!

      My advice is hold your nose and do the online dating thing. You can try other means of meeting people in addition but I don’t think it’s wise to throw out dating apps just because everyone hates them. Is it (nearly) impossible to meet potential partners otherwise? That largely depends on your location.

      I met my now wife on Hinge two years ago. This isn’t an endorsement of Hinge. In fact, Hinge kinda blows. But anecdotally it worked for me.
