AWKWARD ZOMBIE

More luck than I had on a dating site, I tried it a few years ago and got matched with a lot of really desperate people who I didn't have much interest in. Maybe I should try it again now that it is more popular and less taboo?

Try not to be too nervous, or put on any sort of act. If the two of you are not compatible it is better to know now than 6 months down the line (note that being romantic is not putting on an act, just don't pretend to be someone you're not).

Haha, the lady and I aren't really sure what to call each other now, since we're not really dating yet.

Man I'm going to get so impatient waiting until I get back home.

I dunno, Sloth and I didn't call each other anything beyond [name] and "friend" until we decided for sure that we were going to date. Shit, half the time, that's STILL all we really call each other, unless the nature of the relationship is relevant.

OK LAST POST AND THEN I'M DONE

Except maybe if I'm not

I keep peppering in little compliments into our conversations and she goes nuts, in a good way. Apparently I'm a sly devil now and I am goddamn loving this guys.

Girls (or I guess people in general) love compliments. Especially if they come from the heart.

I didn't say before because I wasn't sure if she was comfortable with it, but the girl I like is rhinocerocket, a forumite here. She mostly just lurks, haha.

Anyways, our first Skype date is tomorrow! We're going to have lunch together, watch a movie, and play Smash. I'm really excited!

What?! That changes everything!

*judges internally*

Marc and Rhino, sitting on a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g!

Look at that nerd, having a girlfriend and stuff.

Our first Skype date went really well! We had a great time making fun of Catching Fire and playing Smash and thank you laptop for not crapping out on me. Somehow we managed to spend five hours on the date, haha.

Date #2 tonight! We're just gonna eat ice cream and watch another movie. Maybe once I get back home rhinocerocket and I can go on dates that don't necessarily have to involve cinema.

Oh, and don't worry, I'm not going to make a post every single time we have a date.

I already fucked it up. Fuck my life. Fuck everything. I bodaciously hate myself now.

Fuck it, the image is huge!

Jesus, last time I try to be funny...

All that really needs to be said is that I'm a fucking asshole and don't deserve to be loved by fucking anybody.

That doesn't really say anything other than you have a slight case of the sad.

Was it overly embarrassing on your part?
Did she tell you off in a 1980's movie fashion?

Support can't be delivered without details.

All right, whatever.

It turns out we don't really like each other as much as we initially thought we did. Nothing went "wrong", exactly, there just wasn't ever really a spark between us. I kind of knew that before we even started talking about dating, and I was the one who initiated, so I'm the shitlord in this situation.
