Hey Darlings! I’m back with one of my transparent Diary entries. So this year I made the decision that I wanted to start dating again and since I didn’t have much luck in the past meeting guys I thought hey why not give a dating site a try. Especially since the last bastard whom I have known for over 12 years turned out to be someone else and a freaking liar but thats another story for another day. Just remember that as time changes so does people. Those who once had integrity and character often times lose it and end of being a total disappointment and ruining a great friendship.
Any who its super easy to join. You just download the app, answer a few questions and upload some images. Easy right? So what makes Bumble different from other dating sites? The ladies ALWAYS make the FIRST MOVE. You swipe left if your not interested and swipe right if you are.
Let’s get to the juicy part. LOL! So I am one of those people that if something isn’t working then I’m done. This is my second time trying the bumble dating app out. The first time I was very nervous and not open to chatting with total strangers so a few months ago I told my best friend Shahidah that I was going to give it one more try. So I found myself during free time that I could spare swiping through thousands of guys. Keep in mind I’m open to any ethnicity so you would think that would increase my odds. Nope! Swipe, Swipe, Swipe!
While swiping I come across a handsome guy. I’m thinking okay maybe he’ll be great to chat with so after consulting my friend I send him a quick message which just so happened to be on Easter Sunday once I was home from three services at church. The conversation was good but a tad slow. Warning #1. I decide to see if it gets better the next day. Keep in mind you have like 24 hours to chat on the app and then its up to you to extend it by providing your number or an email. Whatever way you feel like communicating. We texted for about two day and then my investigation skills kicked in so I keyed his name into the search engine on Instagram and immediately found his page. I strolled through it and say some really nice images and then I noticed that there were several videos. These videos had no covers so they all appear blacked out until you select it. GURL! When I selected a few they looked like straight porn videos. Let’s just say that he had a very nice body and appeared to be a great kisser amongst other things. GURL! He knew his way around the bedroom. Hmm is this the type of guy that would interest me. Perhaps sexually but finding out is totally out of the cards since I’m celibate, he was definitely handsome but having the world see him in action like that creating movies filled with many sex scenes was a total turn off for me. He wasn’t actually a porn star at least I don’t think but hey then again was he? I never had the opportunity to ask him because I decided to just end the communication.
Hey! I decided to take another break from Bumble after that. Who knows maybe I’ll give it another try this Summer but for now I’m perfectly content with holding off with dating online.
