Tanker omkring det at være single // Thoughts about being single

Når man er single som jeg er, og virkelig akavet når det kommer til at møde folk i den virkelige verden, så må man jo ty til diverse dating applikationer.

Jeg har været på en del i de to år jeg har været single og har mødt en masse mennesker igennem tiden. F.eks mødte jeg min gode ven Kim på dating.dk. Vi snakkede engang om hvordan og hvorledes, men kom frem til at vi simpelthen ikke skulle være kærester. Tror også det ville ødelægge vores forhold, og det ville jeg ikke kunne.

Min ultimative favorit dating app er uden tvivl Tinder. Det startede i april 2014, hvor jeg så Penny brokkede sig over Tinder på Facebook. Så tænkte jeg, at det måtte jeg prøve! Og så har jeg faktisk været på Tinder siden. Lidt sørgeligt egentlig. Men jeg har mødt mange cool mennesker der som jeg stadig snakker med. Mødte jo også ham der knuste mit hjerte på Tinder. Så der er gode og dårlige sider af det, men det er der jo med alle de der dating sider. På en side hader jeg Tinder, men på den anden side er det fantastisk tidsfordriv.
Og så er jeg fan af nogle af de beskeder jeg får!

Matchede med en fyr, hvor jeg skrev ‘Hvorfor swipede du til højre?’ og svaret jeg fik.. ‘Jeg vil gerne have du sutter min pik.’ Jeg grinte lidt for mig selv, og hvor de fleste nok havde unmatchet ham, så valgte jeg at skrive ‘Okay, frisk type!’ Hørte dog ikke mere.
Jeg er så begyndt at betale for Tinder, så jeg kan swipe andre steder end i København. Ærlig talt, så bliver jeg nok tiltrukket af engelske mænd, så jeg swiper i London. Matchede med en derfra der skrev ‘Hey beautiful. We both know you’re gorgeous, so how about we give you a little personality test, and play your cards right and you could win a date with stud here! So first question.. When you were a kid, what did you always wanted to be when you grew up?’ Mit svar? ‘A space cowboy.’
Og dette, mine damer og herrer, er grunden til jeg stadig er single!

Jeg tror dog at grunden til jeg stadig er single er fordi jeg er som jeg er. På Tinder liker folk mig fordi de synes jeg er flot, eller at min profil tekst er nice. Det er den også. Men så når de lærer mig at kende, så indser de at jeg er ret cool. Det siger 98% af alle fyre jeg matcher med, ikke jeg. Men egentlig. Jo, jeg er fucking cool, jeg har en så dårlig humor at det er sjovt, og jeg gider ikke de der pige ting. Jeg vil hellere sidde og game med min ven Thomas, snakke om alle mulige mande ting og virkelig være frastødende sammen. Mine drengevenner ved jeg også sætter pris at jeg er så drenget, men alligevel kan de spørge om råd hvis de har dameproblemer fordi jeg trods alt jo stadig er en kvinde.
Jeg er typen mænd hellere vil være ven med.

Jeg håber dog stadig på at finde ham der synes jeg er lækker, sød, sjov, klog men samtidig fucking awesome. En helte babe som min ven Mathias ville sige. Ja, han findes jo nok derude et sted.

When you’re single like me, and really awkward when it comes to meeting people in real life, you have to make use of the various dating applications out there.

I’ve been on quite a lot in those two years I’ve been single, and I’ve met a lot of people since I started. F.ex I met my good friend Kim on dating.dk. We once discussed all the hows and what ifs, and we agreed on we simply shouldn’t date. I think it would ruin our friendship actually, and that I wouldn’t be able to live with.

My ultimate favorite app is without a doubt Tinder. It started in April 2014, when I saw Penny was bitching about Tinder on Facebook. So I thought that I had to try it out! And I’ve been on Tinder ever since. That’s actually sad. But I’ve met many cool people on there who I still talk to. Met the guy who broke my heart on Tinder. So there’s good and bad sides. But that’s the same on every dating site. In one way I hate Tinder, but on the other hand it’s a great way to pass time.
And then I’m fan of some of the messages I receive!

Matched a guy, and I wrote ‘Why did you swipe right?’ and the response I got.. ‘I would like you to suck my dick.’ I laughed a little, and where most people might have unmatched him, I wrote ‘Okay, straight forward much!’ Never heard from him again.
I’ve started paying for Tinder, so I can swipe other places than Copenhagen. Honestly, I might get attracted by English men, so I’m swiping in London. Matched a guy from there who wrote: ‘Hey beautiful. We both know you’re gorgeous, so how about we give you a little personality test, and play your cards right and you could win a date with stud here! So first question.. When you were a kid, what did you always wanted to be when you grew up?’ My response? ‘A space cowboy.’
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the reason why I’m still single!

I do think that the reason why I’m single is because I am just the way I am. On Tinder people like me because I’m pretty, or that my profile is awesome. Well, it is. But then when they get to know me, then they realize I’m pretty cool. 98% of the guys I’m matching says that, not me. But really. Yes, I am fucking cool, my humor is so horrible it’s funny, and I don’t like girly stuff. I would much rather sit and game with my friend Thomas, talk about all sorts of guy stuff and be repulsive together. I know my guy friends appreciate that I’m one of the guys, but yet they come to me if they have lady problems. Because after all, I am a woman.
I’m the type of girl, men would rather be friends with.

I still hope to find that man who thinks I’m hot, sweet, fun, smart but still fucking awesome. A herobabe as my friend Mathias would say. Well, he’s probably out there somewhere.
