People Share First Date Stories That Made Them Decide Against a Second Date

First dates exist for particular purposes. They’re not really about discovering if you’re in love with someone or feel a crazy amount of chemistry with them.

Clingy Texter Divides Twitter Over Whether He’s Too Desperate or His Date is a Bad Communicator

A single screenshot of a text conversation can say a thousand words, even in so few.

Dude Freaks Out After Woman on Dating App Says His Profile Appeals to «The Female Gaze»

Dating apps are wild places. They’re great for getting two people in the same room, but they’re far less good at facilitating good conversation.

26-Year-Old Woman Rejects Ice Cream Date Because She Thinks She’s Too Grown Up For That

So many people feel like they’re so grown up when they’re in their mid-twenties. This is allegedly when your brain chemistry is actually adult at that point, so perhaps you do magically become an adult when you turn 25.
