Dating is so pointless


I dated a guy one time and I got bored after a while.

reply

I think more and more people, especially men have come to that realization.

reply

Yeah, lol

reply

I disagree. I think for some people it is. But dating is social experience, whatever the outcome. So, for better or worse, you're still gaining adult social experience points.

reply

Experience that a lot of people needed, need, or will need. We all need to grow even if the experience on a date is negative. A biggie is we find out what is acceptable or not acceptable to us in a potential mate. Could not really call it a date but I used to commute with an extremely attractive woman who was very superficial in some respects. I quickly got over the notion that I was going to program a living Barbie doll to my liking.

Marriage is just an excuse for reproduction.

reply

not true

reply

No excuse needed - people procreate without it plenty. Also, not sure how marriage specifically factors into this conversation, as we're talking about dating.

reply

dating leads to marriage

Good for him, you will only make him unhappy.

reply

Cruel, but funny.

Good point, the bloke who she became bored with most likely paid for the dinners, entertainment, danced on eggshells in order to not upset her etc.

Reminds me of that Sam Kinison love song when his girlfriend tells him he isn’t as fun to be with anymore now that he’s broke.

reply

Kinison is a legend

Great point

Try dating a girl next time.

I was on another movie forum a while back and a bi woman was even complaining about how bad it was to date other women. She listed all the complaints that men tend to make about women, said that unless you have tried dating/being with a woman then you really have no clue how bad it is!

reply

You already gave up after your first try?

reply

I think that was the takeaway here🙃

reply

just one date?

reply

Must have been enough

reply

give a guy a break

reply

Eh, we always find a party;)

reply

Why and when did you get bored during the date?

reply

We just talked about star wars, lotr and harry potter and played chess and board games........

reply

that does sound boring.

reply

Sounds like a bit of good old fashioned courtship. What might have made the evening more exciting?

reply

I just got bored after a while.........

reply

You’re boring sir

reply

i am a woman

reply

It sounds like you prefer being single and just like when the guy pays for things

reply

i only dated one guy my entire life.

reply

I mean, where did it go wrong?

Dating is hilarious. Having dinner with this person you barely know and trying to figure out if you want to spend your life with, have kids with. No pressure there. Enjoy the food. Bad dates are even more fun. You’re stuck in this situation sometimes with vague time limits, trying to think up a creative way to get out of it. I went on a blind date boat trip from hell once. Long story, bad day. There was a squall at some point. A sign from God. I stayed on land a long time after that fiasco.

Waste of time and money..

Fucking is hilarious

reply

Hilarious? Are you sure you’re doing it right?
