haven’t responded to an impatient guy on Grindr (one of the biggest turn-offs), then he tried to hurt me with “even the average don’t respond now”, followed by a block some (a lot of people) don’t know how to emotionally regulate themselves

Ugh hate the notion that people have that, you don't own anybody a response and that could be for any reason: not interested, not having the current mental space or just having a life

@altmaythem exactly! like, do those people really think they’re the center of the world. responding in one‘s own time and on one’s terms is the way to go

People offer what they have to give, not rarely violence or insecurities.

Hate the attitude of some on there - don’t let them drag you down. You deserve so much better

Hate to be that person, and you definitely have your valid points/reasons to not respond immediately or to not respond at all, but I’ve definitely been in the position of hoping for a reply and then feeling like I was the problem when it didn’t come. It can really mess with your mental health! On the other hand, I don’t agree with the reaction you got either.

Well, assumably he’s going to continue to go to bed lonely and angry. Hopefully he finds some peace or at least whatever it is he’s looking for.

@likemike ofc it feels better to be seen and (in this case) be responded to, but i‘m not responsible for this feelings, as hard as it might sound. and his reaction showed me how it was good that he said ‘bye’ himself (in that toxic way)

Grindr is best for casual chats and instant sex. That’s what I use it for these days, and it’s best for that. I’ve been using the app for 10 years. Dating sucks anyway no matter the tool used to get it. The waitstaff can shove it up their ass.
