Expresso Date

To speak vulnerable thoughts over a cup of coffee... Rather quickly, in a caffeine induced ramble.

Going out for coffee with a person you've always wanted to be honest with.
So, I went on an Expresso Date with this guy from Tinder, I think I said too much.

online dating

A virtual battlefield where hope meets disappointment, and the search for true love becomes a never-ending cycle of swiping, ghosting, and occasional encounters with individuals who are one rejection away from becoming serial killers.
Person A: "I just can't catch a break with online dating. Every time I think I've found someone decent, they turn out to be a total disappointment."

Person B: "Tell me about it! I matched with this guy who seemed charming, but after a few messages, he completely ghosted me."

Person A: "Ugh, ghosting is the worst! And don't even get me started on the ones who send creepy messages or unsolicited pictures."

Person B: "Oh, I've definitely had my fair share of those. It's like they're one rejection away from becoming a full-fledged serial killer."

Person A: "Exactly! I mean, how hard is it to find someone genuine and decent in this virtual battlefield of swiping?"

Person B: "It feels like finding a needle in a haystack. But hey, we can't lose hope. There might still be a diamond in the rough out there somewhere."

Person A: "I guess you're right. We just have to keep swiping, filtering out the creeps, and maybe, just maybe, we'll stumble upon true love."

Person B: "Here's to hoping! But until then, let's buckle up and brace ourselves for more disappointments on this never-ending cycle of online dating."

Post-Second-Date Phenomenon

The phenomenon of feeling hatred and disgust following a second date with someone. Typically, the first date goes really well: you feel excited at the potential of this suitor. However, when the second date comes along, you encounter an intrusive mental blockage that prohibits you from enjoying this experience any longer. Externally, there is no issue: the date is perfect on paper. However, when reflecting on the experience, you feel a retrospective sense of repulsion that can’t be attributed to any instance. Your internal sabotage taints the image of your date, halting any prospective relationship.
“I was really excited to go on a second date with this guy because the first date went so well, but it just ended and I feel so awful and gross! It was a totally normal time: what is wrong with me? What do you think happened?” “Girl, that’s the post-second-date phenomenon!”

n.
The ambient emotional environment of modern dating applications, characterized by negotiation between curated digital personas that bear a tenuous relationship to the individuals controlling them, a condition in which authentic connection is systematically displaced by the exchange of idealized representations, creating a closed system in which copies interact with copies while originals remain inaccessible.
We've abandoned dating for the pathosphere of simulacra dating—a digital theatre where avatars perform courtship while their creators swipe alone.
