Inigima Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Sagittarius for the win. I have some interest in astrology and numerology, tarot and the like, but it's not a massive part of my life. I'm mostly skeptical, but I still like exploring it. I also like to know which patronus I would have (a phoenix), so there's that I guess. :P There was an option for "______, and it's fun to think about" which wouldn't have been a dealbreaker for me. I only cared if they were genuinely serious about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyron Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I would be skeptical of dating someone who claims astrology is important to them, unless they also claim that Sagittariuses are the best. I find that opinion very wise and rational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhangel Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Being a Gemini I am in two minds about the inclusion of astrology in dating profiles. Both think it's stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It would be fine if it said '_______ is my spirit animal' because I am totally ok with telling people that 'fennel is my spirit animal' or possibly 'Fou Foune is my spirit animal'. My patronus would most likely look like a bottle of Fou Foune as well. Or an apricot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceluby Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Getting mixed signals from this girl I'm dating. Been on 5 or so dates, have had a good time on all of them, definitely some mutual physical attraction, and after our last date she really wanted to make sure we had plans to see each other again before going out of town last weekend. She cancelled those last minute, which wasn't a big deal since she said she wanted to see me as soon as she got back. Well, that didn't happen either, so I asked if she was free some time this week to which she replied "yes :)", but then added she wasn't sure which day would work. I told her to let me know when she does and haven't heard from her since. So, is this just her impulsiveness, or something else? Should I just ride it out and be happy that she wants to take things ultra slowly (I'm not ready for a real relationship anyway....)? That's the route I'm planning, but wanted to see what the hive-mind thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhangel Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Or she could just be busy. That she said yes she's free but she doesn't know which day would work suggests to me that, actually no she's not free but yes she wants to see you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigima Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It's usually best to propose an actual day rather than just "let me know what's good for you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Kilmore Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Or even a couple of times/dates, like two, maybe three. Then leave the ball in her court. It also sounds to me that she could just be busy, as it would have been easier to just ignore you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceluby Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yeah, the more I think about it the more I think she's just busy. Not gonna worry about it. Will see if she's free tomorrow and if not see if I can set something up for when I get back from an out of town wedding this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceluby Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Proposed either tomorrow or Sunday, due to my busy schedule, and she said she wants to see me on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrellius Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I had to find out what Patronus I am. I'm a Stag - what are the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm sure you're all just dying to hear about my date with Bowtie. He actually almost pulled it off. It was a pretty good outfit and classy bowtie. I'm not sure we really hit it off but we were good at trivia. (Between a math teacher and a physics teacher, we can really nail estimation on questions like "What is the world record for most one-armed pushups in an hour?") But I think we didn't avoid talking about work enough. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLU-RAY Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I think I am presently being given the silent-treatment-hopefully-he'll-take-a-hint-and-disappear at present, but harder to tell with someone whose MO was super busy and not tres communicative to begin with. Wheeeeee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraPrime Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I think I am presently being given the silent-treatment-hopefully-he'll-take-a-hint-and-disappear at present, but harder to tell with someone whose MO was super busy and not tres communicative to begin with. Wheeeeee. I sometimes just get tired of that sort of leave-me-hanging-there tactics and ask them directly. Something like "I noticed I haven't heard much from you since we last chatted. I hope you are still interested in meeting up at some point. But if you don't think this is working out, I can understand, too. Just let me know." Sometimes I get a response from that, but most of the time I don't, which is itself a response in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liffguard Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Welp, my mum is trying to set me up with teenagers now. I'm 28. This is entirely appropriate and not in any way weird and awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlefingers In The Air Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 I guess 18 and 19 year olds are technically teenagers. Please tell me that's how old they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLU-RAY Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Oh, I assumed that, but it's still weird to have a parent trying to set you up with someone from that age range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
