Imagine having enough experience dating to know whether you have any quirks.

I've been in the same relationship for over 36 years. I have no idea if I have any dating quirks, weird or not.

Haha, I have a lot of dating experience but not enough relationship experience.


I've been in the same relationship for over 36 years. I have no idea if I have any dating quirks, weird or not.

Congrats to you both on your many years of successful matrimony.

Every time I take a girl out on a date, I carry a copy of The Fountainhead in my jacket pocket. Once we've sat down to dinner, I open it up and start reading a number of select passages that I've bookmarked and highlighted throughout the years, asking for her thoughts on them. I gauge her reactions while doing this; I'm kind of a psychology expert in this way Wink. If she has a negative reaction to it, I start asking questions such as "Do you want to be a part of something greater than yourself?" or "Are you a member of an organized religion?", among various other queries designed to test her individualism. Typically, she struggles with this-- she has a reflexively angry response to my inquisitiveness, though she cannot articulate why it is making her so uncomfortable (a trait common among people with suboptimal IQs). However, if she manages to articulate any sort of meaningful collectivist counterargument, I then wait for the food to arrive and I start picking food from her plate and stuffing it in my mouth. When she complains, I say "See, this is what the world looks like when individual property rights are not honored. It's the law of the jungle. Only the strong survive." This immediately creates cognitive dissonance in her fragile mind; she cannot reconcile her latent Marxist tendencies with the cold reality of what is happening to her. As she sputters and stutters, I wolf down the rest of her food and then get mine in a to-go bag so I can eat it later. I then stand up, say "This is the future the liberals want," and I leave her with the check. It doesn't get me laid, but it's definitely useful as a way to redpill normies and start them on the self-actualizing journey of libertarian capitalism. Cool

I try to meet women at Planned Parenthood rallies so I don't have to ask the awkward question of if they're pro-choice or pull a Scott DesJarlais.

Yes. Not having ever been on anything resembling a date. Tongue

To break the ice I always ask the question, "What's the worst experience you've ever had at a movie theater?" I'm not sure why, but it's what I do.

I judge women a lot by the first letter of their name. A is bad. M is usually good. K is out of my league.

In a 6 week period at the end of 2014, I dated 6 women, Melanie, Melissa, Mandee, Michelle, Rhonda and Kathy.

Through a process of natural attrition, I ended up with Mandee.

Michelle thought it weird that I still had my marriage ring in my possession (not on my finger), so that devolved pretty quickly.

Rhonda was a nymphomaniac and Kathy was out of my league.

I always make them watch Miracle Mile (1989) with me and judge their compatibility based upon their reaction

The only dating experience I have ever had included gifting her a ballpoint pen with her name carved on it, so that may classify as a weird quirk.

I've only ever dated people that I've met online. Real-life people are too boring.

Depends on which name she uses on Hinge. Otherwise it would be the name she goes by normally.

But if she went by Mandy and the relationship still didn't work out, I would surely blame it on the fact her true name begins with a A. Doomed from the start.

I have a very obvious tell when I am lying to my date where I vigorously scratch my chest.

I'm joking, I don't actually know. Perhaps it's an expected answer for this forum but I haven't been on a date in a very long time, even before the pandemic. I don't care, I'll admit it.

If I don't slam on the first date there won't be a second.

Nothing specific to dating, just my more general quirks.
