At the office today and the water cooler chat is fascinating…
Apparently people meet (to date) on LinkedIn
And on Facebook
And on Instagram
Who knew 🤷🏼♀️
Fascinating 🤣🤣
Discussion
I was married before tinder. Pretty glad to have missed all that.
I hear it can be pretty soul destroying 😔 I’ve never done a dating app myself
Ew.
EW!
I was fascinated. How else do people meet these days? 🤷🏼♀️
I shit post on Nostr and sometimes people like it.
😁
In meat space I force people at bars to talk to me while I'm traveling. Sometimes it works out and when it doesn't it never matters that it didnt.
Sounds like an interesting angle, for extroverts and those who are confident it can work to your advantage.
I like to collect people's stories
I also chat to everyone wherever I go. It’s easier here because it’s customary and polite to acknowledge the other people around you, including greeting strangers on the street.
People are pretty interesting
Community is important!
Very much so, it’s being seen by those around you
I SEE YOU! Ok not really, that'd be weird. But I see you nostr:npub1q6ya7kz84rfnw6yjmg5kyttuplwpauv43a9ug3cajztx4g0v48eqhtt3sh ... I see you.
We have a greeting in my country that literally means “I see you”
So yes, I see you John and Beave 🫂
What country if you dont mind saying, that's interesting. I love idioms and deconstructing their meanings and looking for their roots. I was just briefly talking to nostr:npub1vdaz78d96t7pjakpfmqqlr4wgq26l6vmkf25782n05qgdgtfmk8s297rjz about this.
South Africa 💜
holy moly ! what a beautifully intimate way of saying hello. https://www.loominternational.org/sawubona/
Cool right? 💜
I love it. Eye contact is powerful. It was one of the hardest things for me about living briefly in Japan how direct eyecontact is so so rare and taboo.
No clue. Hence... My likely eternal relationship status. 😅
Sounds like nostr:npub1v7k63c6y2vktlqhsuupywt3yc7ykursujc34at964f9cv9s9y9csjutfk0 might have some ideas…
