This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I usually get people asking for my number or socials when they're interested, asking out tends to happen over electronic communication after that.

My process is basically

  1. Casual conversation- if you don't hit it off naturally here, let it go.
  2. Reciprocal flirting
  3. Exchange contact info
  4. Develop friendship
  5. Ask out directly
  6. ???
  7. Go back to 1

I also get told I'm very attractive in various verbage near daily so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Idk, just be respectful and don't be pushy if they're trying to let you down (and pay attention for if they're trying to do it gently)

For what reason would men randomly approach women? Women online have made it clear that doing so results in being made fun of, that women hate the features of testosterone-having men, and they've made it clear there is a long list of "icks" that you can't have.

The only dating i do is within the circles of friends.

Currently working on an absolute package, btw. Funny, fun, beautiful, sheeeeeesh.
The heart flutters at the thought.

I sense there is a generation shift because literally everyone I see that's under 25 has airpods in or is looking at their phone while in public. You can't even interact irl anymore.

Have you ever asked a woman in real life?

if bars are empty that's because you live in a weird suburb

Too busy conforming to some Podcasters idea of masculinity

The beginning of the tweet reminds me of this song:
