I think I’m falling for my internet pen pal (who really seems much more than that). I don’t know what the fuck happened, but some redditor messaged me about a very niche post I made on a niche subreddit and we’ve been talking for almost 6 months.
I’ve never seen them, they’ve never seen me, etc. But like I said we’ve been messaging (first on Reddit then I got their number) pretty consistently now.
It’s truly bizarre but I think I found someone who understands me idk weird af
As someone who finds themselves having crushes on Hexbear users, people I meet on dating apps, and random people I see on the street....
Nah homie I totally get it
My logical brain says this is only happening because it’s been almost a year since I’ve been on a date. Also, I guess this isn’t really much different from dating apps, I guess it’s hitting me because we were just chatting about a topic and there was no romantic interest whatsoever at the beginning
My emotional brain says if I don’t seize this opportunity I will die alone
Many such cases!
Many people are saying! Been hearing it more and more, folks.
I think one of the lessons of the past few years is that the world can change overnight. Take every chance at happiness that you can get.
I consider you to be a friend.
It's not para-social unless you don't care about me back.
That's all.
It’s like, this is the first time I haven’t had to worry about what I’m saying when texting someone. Like I’ll just word vomit, expect them to be taken aback but they’ll act like it’s totally normal. I’ll fucking talk about my trauma unprovoked and they’ll ask more about it
Kinda surreal, seems almost too good to be true
You should kiss them - NOW!!!
This is like how my wife and I met, and after three years e-dating we've been living together happily for four ❤ Wishing you luck whatever you decide to do with this, being understood and not having to worry about what you're saying feels so good.
Well the first step would be ensuring that we can find out what each other looks like 😅
Any recommendations? I think they have an instagram albeit mine is pretty bare
I dunno, ask them or something? I messaged wifey on discord back before it was 100% dogshit, lmao
I met my wife as another user on a porn site over a series of witty comments.
It happens, and life is weird sometimes. Just take it easy, go slow, and stay safe.
on a porn site
Easily the most cursed e-dating story I have ever heard, but also it's wonderful how love blooms in the goofiest places.
Hey, when your preferences are really niche, you make do. Thanks!
Honestly makes a lot of sense, but man that’s gotta be like one in a million shot.
Sounds awesome honestly. Nothing weird about appreciating or celebrating human to human connection in all of its wonderful forms
