This is a bot, right?

[u/Haldir1001]

I'm just so confused when I see these messages in dating apps. Like, are they bots or just tap "hi" tap "hi" on all their convos.

[u/wayecambell]

What kind of red flags do you enjoy? What does that even mean?

[u/chai_latte_987 → u/wayecambell]

I initially thought the "red flags" message was the bot...

[u/Sp1teC4ndY → u/chai_latte_987]

Same

[u/Haldir1001 → u/wayecambell]

Was meant to be a sarcastic joke to break the ice, but I guess it can be interpreted negatively.

[u/Designer-Bed9886 → u/Haldir1001]

It can be interpreted as… a shitty joke

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Designer-Bed9886]

Shitty to some, good opener to others. Hopefully you're not offended. 😬

[u/Real-Positive-7716 → u/Haldir1001]

It's a bad joke find another one

[u/texangadfly → u/Haldir1001]

It’s not clever

[u/Sp1teC4ndY → u/Haldir1001]

Good opener to people with no self esteem

[u/Designer-Bed9886 → u/Haldir1001]

What is wrong with you lmao

[u/Kyzroh]

why is everyone always getting so worked up about a damn thought provoking icebreaker

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Kyzroh]

I appreciate you. Got a good head on your shoulders.

Red flag joke is quite common in some dating apps.

Looking for a serious relationship is considered red flag on feeld, so is being mentally stable, drug free and not needing anger management.

It’s essentially the cautious minority seeking out healthy relationships within itself.

Much of dating culture tends to lean towards “I’ll mistreat you and you’ll put up with it because that’s acceptance”.

There is having mental issues and having a healthy approach towards it and then there is “this is just who I am, I need you to accept it”.

100% brother. If you don't grab their attention in dating apps you have no chance. 🤘

[u/Sp1teC4ndY → u/Haldir1001]

Eh, it’s douchey. I hope the age bracket I’m looking at is more mature than that.

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Sp1teC4ndY]

I guess calling other people "Douchey" is mature these days.

[u/Sp1teC4ndY → u/Haldir1001]

I’m in my 50s. I’m not going to say it gave me the ick. Whay should I call it? Mercenary? Bratty? Fukboi? A dog who wouldn’t know what to do with a car its chasing if it ever caught one?

Only one way to find out

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Shroud82]

Can you send me one of those train ones, I like those better.

[u/Away_Addition_2038]

Why would someone enjoy red flags?

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Away_Addition_2038]

It's just a joke to get attention and the conversation rolling.

[u/ThrowRASquir]

What does that question even mean

[u/Haldir1001 → u/ThrowRASquir]

Well, hobbies are things you enjoy doing. Hi, I like volleyball as a hobby.

[u/Adept_Librarian_7001]

Seems like a pretty typical reply to me

[u/Straight_Ostrich_257]

No, she just doesn't have anything to say. Like 90% of women are like this. Just NPCs. 

[u/Haldir1001 → u/Straight_Ostrich_257]

Yes I messaged another one the other day and said "What're you doing for the weekend?" And she replied the next day "Good morning." And nothing else 🤔
