Older friends tend to look at me funny about meeting girls online. Jason (match > okc) and I (okc > match) talked for a while tonight about the difficulty meeting people with common interests online and how “match percentage” and such numbers aren’t always all that useful. Meeting people with common interests is easier through said interests but then you don’t know if they’re single, interested in dating, whatever. It’s a complicated balance.

I struggle at times with keeping my emotions docile. That is, trying to keep them to myself as to not make others uncomfortable. They seem to produce an impression with girls that things are moving too fast, or that I’m looking for some kind of commitment from them. Hmm. Maybe I am, but I’m not expecting as much. I definitely support people acting on how they feel and try to live accordingly.
