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 read "I bought months ago" and it made it even more wholesome and funny

I mean, it's your gf. Standard stuff tbh

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 44 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A standard green flag, for sure.

Ew, Irish…

It's not really standard. Lots of people are terrible at giving gifts.

I'm grateful for anything I get, but honestly this year all I could think in my head with every gift I received was "do you guys even know me?"

How do you get a gf if you have no friendo?

I met my fiancee on Hinge and Tinder. We matched on both at the same time. Hinge is probably the better one if you're looking for something serious but play the field, whatever your attention span will allow for.

Bumble is also a decent one. It has, or at least used to have? I've not used it in almost 2 years, a "unique" feature where the woman messages first. Though that usually just ends up being a "Hi" or something even less conversation-starting.

Really depends on what you're looking for, I guess.

Alright thank you very much!

Indeed hinge is probably good if it is used where you live. I had my luck multiple times with bumble, only met serious girls. However you attract depending on how you build your profile, and it took time to get a good one for me

When people mention wanting something or if I get an idea for a gift in general, I write it down. Now I have plenty of ideas for all the people I usually give gifts. It has made giving good gifts a lot easier.
