My now wife dropped her single status 7 times in the first conversation we ever had. So I asked her to go hiking with me. She agreed for some reason. Strange person she just met asking her to go alone in the woods with no one around?

Ayy just about my exact experience.

Me: Do you like hiking?

Her: No, not really.

Me: Oh that's too bad. I was going to say we should go walk sometime, it's really fun.

Her: Well, uh, hiking isn't that bad....

Is the printer one really supposed to be flirty? It just seems rude to me...

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Yup, definitely Canadian.

That my friend is about as subtle as a brick. I love her.

[-] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 33 points 11 months ago

She is about as subtle as a brick. Nuance and metaphor aren't her strong points. But she has plenty of others.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

You might wanna feed her more. She's not supposed to be pointy.....

My now wife and me were talking a day before our second date

Me: oh so yeah there is a new restaurant pretty close to me and they serve food from your country. Haven't been there yet. Want to check it out?

Her: nah save your money. I will come to your place and cook.

She did and the meal was amazing.

I'm the outdoors type, and I have fucked this up on dates SO many times.

Last gf: SECOND date I take her out to my camp in the swamp. Yes, private land in the fucking boondocks. She was so outgoing, adventurous and into me I didn't think about it! Few weeks later told me she was scared shitless.

My new wife is a total city girl from Manilla. SECOND date I met her at a local hiking park at sundown (she was late, OK?!). It's in the city, but still kinda wild.

"But what if there are bears?"

"I mean, it's possible there are black bears, but they're not coming near a human talking and making noise, and I have a pistol if it comes to scaring one off." (Yes, I said that. Figured she knew I had a pistol, her ex was a gun nut, she kept hugging and feeling me all over on our first date, couldn't hide it.)

She stood there in the last pool of streetlight, violently shaking her head side-to-side.

"Hey! It's OK! Let's go find something to do downtown!"

Later told me she was afraid I'd drag her off in the woods and murder rape her. Gods I'm dumb. She took my hand in marriage, still scared of bears. Worked out!

Ha! My now wife realised on our first date that she was in a strange town, with no one she knew, and no one knew we were on a date. Cue her drunkenly asking me if I was an axe murderer and if I was going to chop her into little bits.....about 40 times....

I decided not to mention I collect knives until the 3rd date.

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

You collect... just knives? What's the extra freezer for, then?

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months ago

Uhhh....for moose and elk....sweats profusely yeah......yeah.....legally poached....errrrrr.....hunted meat.....that totally isn't people.....

One girlfriend. First date included getting in my car, and ended with me taking her to my house. We played Sonic 🥰

But yeah, someone trusting you enough to get into your vehicle the first time you meet them is on one hand awesome ❤️ but on the other hand, like, dude be grateful I'm not a serial killer 😂

[-] kilgore_trout@feddit.it 12 points 11 months ago

Why not? Most humans are reliable and it's hard to find hiking partners.

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

I like that your description doesn't preclude the possibility that you, and she, never returned from the hike.
