This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

While I've certainly been guilty of going on long shot dates, I feel like your process should filter out most people with that level of incompatibility.

I'm sure a lot of people picked up on my nerdery from my profile or initial messages and passed, and that's probably the right choice.

Though I do remember one bad date, we were talking about rom-coms and I mentioned dragon age inquisition and how I liked some of the romance plots in kt. She said something like she "thinks I live too much in those games". Disaster averted, and now I have a fun story.

No being invested in things I am not also invested in!
