    Do you have cats?

    I have a cat and I get messages on dating apps from women telling me they like me but I need to get rid of my cat to date them. It’s fucking weird.

      Wow, I can’t believe you said that!!! I was vibing with a woman who approached me. Got her number, we have similar interests, etc. I mentioned in a text something offhand about my cat in the context of “what have you been up to”… Boom. Instant ghost. Never heard from her again!

        a lot of women think a man with a cat is gay. even if they have a cat, or like cats.

        it’s incredibly stupid. but incredibly common.

          Okay… Maybe this is a dumb question… but if I get her digits and am clearly pursuing her… how could she think I’m gay!?

          Yeah when I got my cat all I wanted to do was have anal sex with a guy.

          It was so odd. Pat a dog and it’s like all want is pussy.

          Pat a cat and bam, ass all the way

        there is a tend of people being aggressive now in dating where they basically like list out all their demands and then expect you to say yes or something. it’s so fucking weird to me to demand that a complete stranger pay your bills for you or get rid of their pet for you, but it’s popular on tiktok and all that. and if someone says no your demands, they are a weak and pathetic person. There is just this weird like ‘make major lifelong commitments to me from the get go’ nonsense going on.

        maybe I’m old fashioned but when i was growing up you typically didn’t make demands from strangers, you got to know them a bit before you started asking them for major commitments and then you respected them if they said no. relationships were something that emerged and you negotiated, they weren’t employment contracts where you specified everything you ‘need’ before you even met them.

        something something commodification of relationships, I guess?
