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.

I think you are overthinking it way too much. I'm just talking about the social norms. Who said anything about committing crimes??? Did you think I was talking about breaking the law? Wtf? You trying to grab a tit while you say hey? Just say what's up and if she doesn't bite, go to the next one. Don't get discouraged, it's all about getting out there and practicing but it sounds like you may have some social insecurities that need to be addressed first... playbooiiii LOL

The only rules are the ones you make playbooiiii

Is what I was making a joke about. There are, in fact, "rules," being the crux of the joke.

But no I mean the fact that supposedly no woman wants men to say what's up anywhere but the bar, which I do not frequent, or the dating apps, which are spyware.

I think I'm starting to understand why you are having problems playbooiiii

Not everyone can be a super cool playbooiiii like you I guess lol.

Nah I just go to the bar and do some shots. Buy some drinks for the girls. Social lubricant, You know what I mean jelly bean?

So is the bar "a place other than the bar or dating apps" though? You see my conundrum. Must I start drinking again simply to find a partner? Sobriety (well, weed, but whatever) is a married man's game?

It would be a lot easier if you drank casually id say but I'm assuming you would probably want a SO that doesn't drink as well. There was an organization near me that did all kinds of kayaking, hiking, theme parks, restaurants, tours just for singles called 'events and adventures' or excursions or something like that and a friend of mine had some luck with meeting his wife there. Maybe you could try if you are in the US I'm sure every major city has something like that

That sounds like a good idea if it's specifically for singles, sounds like exactly what I'm looking for! I'll see if my area has anything, thanks!
