I don't consider myself particularly interesting, but I would say my interests are vastly different from the average guy on dating apps

I don't know how to say this without sounding pretentious, but I prefer intellectual conversation over nights at the bar or whatever. I just want to be able to share the thoughts I have floating around my head with someone, ya know? When I'm not on hexbear.net, I play guitar, draw, write and enjoy analyzing different types of media and digging into the meaning of stuff

Stream of consciousness slop, I know, but I'm super high and my thoughts are firing off. Can anyone relate or see where I'm coming from?

    Except dating apps you first make a profile with pictures and a bio and then directly compete with other "candidates" for the privilege of... meeting a random person. Next you both lie to eachother the first couple meetings because that's what you are supposed to do apparently, much like with a job interview. Then finally, if you both like the fake personas you constructed for eachother, then you can act truly like yourself and discover all the things you should have figured out when you first met the person. After this you probably break up but hey maybe you like eachother's true selves too and it works out.

    In comparison you can just meet someone irl and act yourself immediately because there's not the same competitive pressure to do the stupid online dating dog-and-pony show. Then if you have good chemistry you can advance at your own pace from there.
