Unfortunately you'd be eating that dinner by yourself....
Jesus right for the throat
i didn't say they were directed at me
> green bubbles give her the ick
I mean, I guess I would be grateful to have such an earlier indicator that someone is not worth pursuing. Truly, who cares.
It’s not that they would reject you if they already had some sort of a connection formed with you or that they consider having “green bubbles”to be an absolute dealbreaker. But if you have 5 similarly good on paper dating candidates, you are in the very initial stage of the process with them, and you need to narrow down the list, I don’t think it is that unreasonable to do so based on “the ease of texting.” You gotta narrow down somehow, and if doing so based on “green bubbles” eliminates 1-2 max out of 5 in the very initial stage, it is kind of a not that terrible of a metric. If it was eliminating half or more, it would be a bit more questionable.
Of course, eliminating someone for “green bubbles” after you had already developed some interest in is way too much and is indeed a trait that would make one not worth pursuing.
Are you serious? You think that the brand of mobile device a potential suitor uses is a good metric to eliminate candidates?
this is a very real and powerful force that apple has shrewdly monetized
especially w young ppl, where i think like 90% have iphones. if i had a nickel for every time a gal mentioned green bubbles give her the ick, i wouldn't be rich but could probably buy a solid steak dinner off it.
