I stop being funny immediately after we leave the dating app.
I wanna see this with the chess.com evaluation symbols next to the messages
Ask and you shall receive
Blunder ahaha
Not sure what these are, from my same search:
…but some might be applicable for that uncomfortable OK Cupid data:
Oh man that OKC pic is brutal.
what about the arrows?
For Chess.com, that's the icons for a forced move. Or at least that's the file name, I haven't been able to find a central place for the icon scenarios.
Is it that “with attack” from the second image?
An attack is a great form of defense in itself and playing an aggressive, strong game from the beginning gives a player a significant advantage throughout the game.
With good enough counterplay, she might let you connect pawns. (Still reading the symbols, I don’t play chess :) )
I'm funniest when I'm alone in my car, after work, thinking about what happened and all of the really funny things I should've said. They're really good.
L'esprit de l'escalier.
No thanks but I don't drink
You shouldn't respond while driving home from work.
wit of the staircase: repartee thought of only too late, on the way home
Only had to look it up because I always think of my repartees right on time.
And obviously we all know the definition of repartee:
conversation or speech characterized by quick, witty comments or replies
We, we. I've dropped many an undergarment once I started speaking baguette.
Oh yeah, really? Well, the jerk store called, and they're running out of you!
"What's the difference? You're their all-time best seller."
Dude you’ve got the complete opposite problem I do. My text game is dog shit, I’m much more of an in-person kinda guy
Did you just call this man dog shit in-person!? How rude!
I was always the same. My strategy on the apps was to ask them out after 10 messages.
Yeah I mean, there’s a bunch of people that prefer this anyway IME.
See, I’m the same way. I’ll intentionally make myself look stupid—and it should be clear it’s a joke. But maybe you need the context of knowing the person to understand that? Because the understanding and volleying back of the repartee drops significantly on dating apps. Everything I mention on my profile is a joke, so…expect jokes when we match? I think people just assume the worst—particularly women on dating apps, most likely as a defense mechanism. I assume women have to go into every encounter with male strangers on the internet already on guard. So when anything out of the ordinary gets thrown their way, they’re just like, “…eh, I think it’s probably safer just to shut this down now before it gets weird.”
That’s what I tell myself anyway. Because I know I’m hilarious and it’s absolutely not that my jokes aren’t landing. They’re landing. Women are just intimidated by my wry wit.
You're simply too funny to date anyone. They wouldn't be able to stop laughing and it would cause chronic muscle pain in their abs.
I once made someone laugh so hard they darted, then they laughed at me laughing at their laugh fart and kept darting. My wit is truly dangerous.
See, I keep telling that to my mom. But she just won’t stop crying long enough to really hear it, yknow?
The biggest boost to my confidence was when I realized I don't have to feel bad about being socially awkward, I can simply own it and choose to believe its endearing. That may well not be the case and I'm just a blubbering idiot, but it gets me out and talking to people and generally happier which is what's most important
respectfully
Are you Sir Pentious?
I can't believe I understood this. Totally unexpected.
