We got to talking, eventually agreed to meet up for a beer. I hit her with some really corny dad joke and she did reply and laughed. At that point I was desensitized why bother putting effort into your first message when 95% of girls don’t reply? After wafting through about 2 years of bullshit, failed dates, ghosting, etc I messaged this girl.
I always wanted a nerdy-gamer girl for a girlfriend and I got my wish.Ĭannot emphasize how fantastic online dating is to introverts, once you get over the ridiculous amount of rejection, and accept that patience is your friend, and lastly, learn to be honest and put effort into your messages/profile.ĩ. Moved half-way across the country to be with her. We danced down the street together and couldn’t even see each other’s actual bodies at all, but the sweaty banter afterwards did it.Ĩ. We were both character performers at Disney. She renewed her account, got my message, and 10 years later we are married with 3 kids and a dog.ħ. I had sent her a message after her account expired. Having a pair of balls and saying fuck it can either pay off tremendously or back fire horribly.Ħ. Asked her where the other team was from, and I never heard of the place, so I said fuck it, went over to the cutest girl on the other team, gave her my number, and here I am 4.3 years later with a girl I hope to marry. Game ends and I go down to the field to congratulate her. I was watching my good “girl friend” at the time play. :) 10/10 would recommend approaching a handsome stranger in the supermarket.ĥ. We are married with 4 year old twin boys now. He put the bag of chicken nuggets on his head like he was about to pass out and we both laughed. I asked if he was married, and when he said no, I asked if he would like to take me out some time. I approached him in frozen foods as he was looking at a 5 lb. I saw him in the grocery store, and I thought he was handsome.
So this gorgeous brunette walked up to me, put a gin-and-tonic in my hand, and introduced herself.Ĥ. We were at a business networking event where the rule was that you were not allowed to buy drinks for yourself, whatever you bought you had to put it into someone else’s hand as an opener to conversation. We went on a blind date, were married 2 years later, and now have three grown children and planning where to go for our 37th anniversary.ģ. I remarked she was very attractive.įorward a few weeks and he tells me the daughter had just broken up with her boyfriend, was in the dumps, and asked if I wanted to ask her out. He showed me a picture of the cabin and posing in front was a dark haired beauty who he identified as his daughter.
A guy I worked with was retiring soon and had purchased a vacation cabin in north GA. Way back in 1980, I was working in south FL. I wrote my number down on a piece of receipt paper (which he still has), we went out the next night, and we’ve been together ever since. Next night he came in, I guess we both had the same idea. I told myself that if he ever came back in, I needed to take the chance and ask him out. I didn’t have any of his contact details. Then, there were a few weeks when he didn’t show up at all, and I realized that I really missed him. Him and I became friendly, played jokes on each other, he grew to be one of my favorite regular customers.
I was waitressing, he came in all the time with his friends.
