Love, Dating and First Dates: Uncanny valley

Uncanny valley

By Anonn - 22/07/2022 12:00

Today, after yet another first date, I was once again told I'm a nice, sweet guy with a rocking body, interesting hobbies, easy to talk to and so on, but she just can't get over how I look like Shrek after a bad car accident, and won't be going on a second date. This is the fourth woman to compare me to Shrek. FML

Today, a guy didn’t want to take me on a second date. I asked him if it was because I’m not pretty, or because I’m not catwalk model skinny, or too short, and he told me quite openly that it had nothing to do with that, I’m just so boring. FML

Nice guys…

Today, a man reminded me five times how much of a "nice guy" he was during our first conversation, saying also that I seem the sort to date the "bad guys" because I looked sweet and innocent. Then, without waiting for me to say something, he sighed and walked away, muttering that he always finished last. FML

Today, I went on a date with a seemingly nice guy I met online. He was drunk when I got there. Within the first 10 minutes, he had told me I was "like Hitler but with boobs", and I was "offensive to the ninja community." Then he said I just wasn't all he had hoped for and left. FML

Today, I met a guy in a bar. He was sweet and funny so I asked him out for coffee later. He quickly turned me down, saying that I didn't even meet his first requirement. His first requirement was "looks like a girl." FML

Today, I showed up to my Bumble date with a guy. He looked at me up and down and said, "You look different from the pictures. I pictured you more slimmer." To rub salt in the wound, he proclaimed, "I’d rather staple my nutsack than continue this date. Good luck to you," and walked off. FML

Today, my girlfriend told me she is only going out with me because I look like the person she really wants to go out with. FML

Pissed to meet you

Today, at Walmart, a lady came up to me and informed me that I "look like the kinda skank that'd give it up on the first date". FML

The eye of the beholder

Today, my boyfriend compared me to an unattractive actress. When I said it was sort of messed up to say that to me since she's not pretty, he said, "She's not as bad as you." FML

Today, my Tinder date took one look at me and left, because, "the camera" made me "look thick" and he, "can’t date a skinny bitch." FML

On the plus side, you'll probably do well if you invest in green body paint next Halloween.

Cheer up! Sometimes you swing and miss a bit. But as a person who is fat, ugly and at times what I feel is a bit of a loser, I’m in my 5th year of marriage to a cute girl who loves my love handles, is the opposite of me body wise (skinny, short, has hourglass figure) and used to be a model in Japan, sometimes it takes the patience to find someone who finds you irresistible. And I had to go through a horrendous divorce before I scored in this one and years of hell. Trust me, there is someone looking for the real you out there! Don’t get too discouraged. (My wife hates when I compare myself to moe sizlack and refernce the eeny-meeny-mya-moe “kiss the troll abd win a prize” quote)

This is why you wear a bag over your head. Maybe two, you might be a double-bagger. PS: making ear-wax candles isn't an "interesting hobby." Save that nugget for the fourth date or beyond.
