      Coffee is horrid disgusting bean soup that exists to get workers with too much overtime addicted to a stimulant to keep them working.

      Drink tea instead. We didn’t do two opium wars and a spot of good old fashioned imperialism just to supplant the tasty fermented leaf for a bitter jungle bean. Much more civilised.

    I had a somewhat similar situation but involving 3D modelling on a laptop. However, I was very aware I was being hit-on, but I just didn’t care. I was in “the zone” making something for my project and didn’t want to stop.

    Once i had a girl sleep over, because she missed the last Train. When i asked what Music she would like to hear, she said “let’s go to bed” by the Cure. The next 4 times i asked her, she said the same thing. I remember thinking “gee she must really love that song”. #autism

    I left a bag at a house party one time, went to pickup the bag the next days and completely missed all the clues from the girl who I’d been flirting with on and off in the lead up to the party. I kick myself when I think back to it.

      It’s all relative man. Sure you might be ugly on a scale of 1-10 but a subset of that scale like 1-3 you might be still be ugly but if you expand the scale, say from -3-1 you the too dog man! Just find yourself a -3 and she’ll want to watch movies on a laptop on your bed, just make sure you reinforce the bed frame.

        Lol great advice. I did actually reinforce my bed frame. Not because of the weight of my partners so much as the uh… force in play sometimes.

        My main problem when I’m single is that I get very few matches on the apps, and I’m shy about approaching women in person unless they make the first move. Once I’m actually talking to someone, the chances are pretty decent and not just with “-3s”. Same thing with job interviews. As soon as I’m in person, I’ll talk pretty much anyone into hiring me - but getting to that point is difficult. Actually the job interview success rate is even better, it’s like 80-90%.

          I feel you there. As far as dating apps go. In my experience, vet your photos. Photos I thought were good were bad and I used photofeeler to find my best pictures to use. Get some friends to help you with capturing some good pics and writing a good short profile.

          I am a decent looking guy but wouldn’t say I’m hot, and had pretty decent amount of matches and dates. Swipe yes less, be picky and don’t just swipe right on every hot girl make sure there is at least something about them you think you would match vibes on. Keep chats brief and ask for a casual date early on and within a few days. Go on bad dates, it builds confidence.

      That age is tied to cognitive development, the exploration of identities, and the discovery of many new things in the world. When I was a teenager I was also oblivious and that lead to situations similar to OP’s.
