Ok so I'm newly single after a very very bad marriage. I had tried the dating apps a few months ago and go literally ZERO matches. I was frustrated but realized they are mainly just scams now. I deleted my accounts and gave up on dating for now.

The past week I uploaded a video of me hitting baseballs in my yard onto IG and literally got 3 women who slid into my DMs within a day 🀷

Thinking outside the box, folks.

I got with someone by making her laugh and telling her about my weird unfinished story ideas and showing her all the weird nerd shit we're both into

She self-identifies as a goblin and is under 5 feet tall and is a gigantic weeb and a fellow borderline furry

She's the type of weird I been looking for tbh

[–] Des@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

while not that same specifics sounds like when my partner and I met

so get ready for 10+ happy years

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

I'm really really happy for you, you deserve it!

When this happens for the first time it proves that it's possible, and if there's a decent human connection there, it feels like the whole world pouring affinity through you.

I hope you discover and learn a lot about yourself relationally (and about her too).

This only helps if you have normal people hobbies like baseball

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago (4 children)

You mean people won't want to sit with me for 2 or 3 hours at a time looking up facts and tonal sounds of different guitar amps?

Would (explain the history of Matamps and Oranges)

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would (bring up Buttp*ssy forum drama apropos of nothing and then GAS over a Jim Root Terror lunchbox head for 45 minutes)

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Finally someone to GAS with, we gonna stink up the place

I've spent an ungodly amount of time thinking about guitar gear as well.

[–] Aradina@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 year ago

You're telling me the straight girl I'm yearning for doesn't care about eve online lore? Fuck

[–] sir_this_is_a_wendys@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I just bought the baseball bat last week 🀷

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is making things a normal people hobby? sadness

Depends on what you’re making. Dragon dildos? Maybe not, but you can put a little corporate pizzaz and say you’re sculpting fantasy figurines

[–] goose@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

women literally only want one thing and it’s dingers

I've always had a much higher success rate on non-dating platforms.

Damn I might need to see what it does for gay women. I bet my swing is still silky

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is a community of wlw baseball enjoyers, in fact "softball dyke" is apparently an entire look

[–] Edie@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The indie wlw ~~game~~ visual novel (Butterfly Soup) also has baseball.

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Baseball is when women kiss niko-happy

[–] JayTreeman@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

'Katie Casey was baseball mad, Had the fever and had it bad. Just to root for the home town crew, Ev'ry soul Katie blew.'

I dated a woman who took a history course on baseball. She said baseball mad was a thing about horny women.
