How crucial texting is to modern dating - eviltoast

I am 23 and I am currently in the dating scene. I’ve had no success and I’ve had the fourth person lose all interest in between setting up the date and the long wait between the date. It typically goes match on dating site, set up date, try to get to know each other over snap and then interest lost. I do tend to respond quickly but it’s not like I am constantly spamming or shit like that. I am just tired. It’s such a dumb minor thing but it seems to be destroying my chances. I am on the autism spectrum and I find texting and shit like that extremely stressful. I know no one is actually going to like past that. Divergence is punished must stick to strict social rules around dating fuck being my actual self I guess.

    I met my fiance on a dating site and what worked for me was after a short communication in the app quickly deciding to meet up or not, but not dragging it out. Where you can see each other without it having to be a texting event. And not even a real big day, just a quick in-person meet up to see if you’re compatible, on the since it’s hard to tell via text.

      +1 to this

      Me and my partner met on a dating app, quickly went to a date night (bloody hilarious and amazing company). The trick was not to juggle too many and if you ever get that feeling of “They are the one”, even if it’s 30 seconds to netting them, GO FOR IT!
