I’m always surprised when it happens. 99% of the time I’m just tolerated, but every once in a while someone asks. Happened last night. I was sooooooooo happy.

    I go with “I love listening to people talk passionately about their special interests”.

          haha, sorry if it made you uncomfortable! It’s a really common cue on a lot of profiles 😅 So many people use the apps now you just get used to the idea that everyone knows

            Oh, okay, that makes more sense.

            I mean, I think a lot of the dating app culture stuff stays way more local. I’m in Australia so the stuff you commonly see is gonna be different.
