dating

The new dating world is a strange and terrifying beast. This particular batch is full of the kinds of wildly unexpected, ever hilarious, and often uncomfortable moments you're bound to come across after enough right swipes. 

Over the weekend people shared their favorite takes on #ChristmasBreakUpExcuses, and going through these, I've gotta admit..pretty impressed. Goes without saying these are NOT going to help you avoid the steaming sugar coated sh*tpile that'll fall from the sky upon your life if you try to use one of 'em.

Someone on AskReddit got a gnarly thread going about the most ruthless rejections that people have ever endured. Some of these are just plain old heartless. It takes a lot for some folks to put themselves out there, and long as they're respectful, it's on the people being asked out to handle the rejections with just a little bit of grace. 

Some are funny, some are sad, some are funny and sad. The world is a funny and sad place, and the context of dating only raises the stakes. Here's what people said that sometimes worked but mostly didn't work in the moments that counted. Check these out or these if you wanna see more priceless Tinder moments.
