Omg I am celebrating! 🥳🎇🎉🎊

I went on my first date in over two years, go me!! And uh no, this was not on the date. The date was relatively short, I don't think he was impressed. But I am still celebrating because I put myself out there in a new city!

Dating is so painfully weird. Is there a Nostr version of a dating app? Or do we just harass each other

I THOUGHT I read about a Nostr dating app somewhere but nostr:npub1ve8qwrlztemdmnh62jffcr0y9m9dpqgqjdg8ufx7gc3qw5wdk74qyv9ka6 might be a good interim solution.

Honestly I’d recommend eharmony.

It’s a values based approach. My wife and I met via it and haven’t looked back sense (well maybe she has LOL)

It’s not a “hook up” app. It’s a:

1. Get to know yourself, so

2. Others can get to know you, so

3. You two can be connected on a foundational and compatibility level, not solely physical/sexual

…app

Yea. It’s at least local people into BTC so you’d have some affinity and basis for connection

harassment is acceptable substitute for being single and without hope

I would not recommend dating apps, as every single one of them is designed for hook-ups and one night stands.

I'd find people who are relatable, and you know for a fact they can be committed without manipulation. Let it naturally brew, and the wonders you'll see from that will be unimaginable in the positive.

Yea the dating apps are not great, in general I am not on them. But my friend made me promise to go on at least one date in the new town, and apps where the easiest way of setting that up. Once I get back on my feet more I'll go back to in person socializing, I used to do the singles mingle events but those feel even worse than the apps sometimes. It's hard out there! 😭

I guess introversion will do the trick.

I'm surprisingly more introverted than I thought, though I'm an introverted-leaning ambivert.

But how will I meet the other introverts if I indulge my introverted nature?! Will God send me a good man just straight to my home while I do my research and ignore society? Fingers crossed! 🤞🥰

That depends on what one does outside, meeting people where they happened to be at (if there are places with sane people left).

That's how I see it.

"If there are places with sane people left" that's a big if there 😅
