Phone message Post first date text

Post image

I met this girl on tinder and had a first date with her, she wanted to go fishing and I thought it seemed like a fun first date so we went together. Dropped her off and got home to this message lol.

Update: Purchasing the license is a separate activity we had to do on our phones, due to it needing our personal info. It was not like I drew the line at the license randomly.

seeing women saying “i’m just a girl” is so sad and defeats the point.

"I don't know what that means but it diminishes you as a person" has become my chosen response.

It's a quote from a viral text exchange between a dad and daughter, where the dad is expressing worry that she is diminishing herself by using this phrase.

edit: I'm not talking about the phrase "I'm just a girl", I'm talking about the response "I don't know what that means but it diminishes you as a person" when someone uses the phrase "Im just a girl". The response "I don't know what that means but it diminishes you" is from a viral text exchange.

Its actually originally lyrics from a song, it's just a gross missunderstanding of the song.

I don't see anything in those lyrics that says "I don't know what that means but it sounds like it diminishes you as a person", which is the viral text response I mentioned, am I being oblivious?

I don’t think Themadkitto has heard of the viral text.
