  • Been a while since I was on here, irl tings :pepecringe:

    By the way, where do we go to see updates on lemmy functionalities? As it is, it's kinda hard to expand, UI is incredibly hard to get used to. Plus no emojis, no gifs. Even BB forums got those like 23 years ago. Can't even provide image url to display need to upload? :O

  • I don't think the telco would care, the contract is valid, they cannot resell the phone.

    What you can do is ask her either pay it herself (change to her name) or ask for the phone back. If she refuses to do both, let her know that it is your property, and that you can make a police report against her for theft. If she is not fazed, then go ahead and make that police report.

    You can at best case scenario retrieve the phone back (with all the accessories and box if possible) and resell it to pay for the penalty. You may not recover everything, but it's better than nothing. You can also ask if you can cancel her sim card and use the line for your own. You may not get the phone back, but at least you can make use of the line somehow (hotspot or sth).

    Five honest questions to ask yourself if you're unsure about your relationship (that I stole from Instagram)

    1. If someone told you you're a lot like your partner, would this be a compliment to you?
    2. Would you want your future or imagined child to date your partner?
    3. Are you truly fulfilled or just less lonely?
    4. Are you able to be unapologetically yourself or do you feel the need to show up differently to please your partner?
    5. Are you in love with your partner right now as a whole, or are you only in love with their good side or with the potential or idea of them?

    Man these are some hard-hitting questions which I feel may or may not apply to Asian-centric countries because we just have too many different social and cultural expectations and roles to fulfill. The above feels like it can only be a resounding yes if you are in an absolute perfect relationship, which feels like it's more the exception than the rule. What even is a perfect relationship nowadays anyway?

    I think having some "no"s to the above doesn't absolutely mean your relationship or partner is no

  • I do it before my meals in the morning, then evening. I do skip dinner. All the best, and do take note that not everybody's body react the same way. If you do find something is off, please stop taking it, yea?

    Married nyets, how do you manage your finances? Do you have a joint account? Do you ask each other for permission to spend your own money?

  • nope! and I don't like the ideas of calls either. I think the advice above is for specific type of girls.

    If hesitate then just move on? Yeah I suppose if you're getting that many matches, but girls who hesitate don't mean they are not interested, they just have concerns. I think it's valid. Cannot be too eager. and I feel like the pace above maybe works for people in their 20s? But older probably too fast-moving. Having someone is nice, but I'm not about to hang on to every single text I get, we're working and tired.

    How to find the right partner in dating apps (monyet guy edition)

    only for those who are single and looking for something long term

    Frustrated with girls who flake and ghost even if you put a lot of effort, or even those who are just there for validation with no intentions to meet up? Trying to find someone who is actually on the apps for the right reasons? You are not alone, it happens even to the most attractive of guys. Good news? There is an effective way to weed out a huge number of them, albeit not totally. Here is what worked for me:

    1. First of course start with a good opener, don’t try too hard but don’t give a basic ‘hi’ either
    2. Keep the convo length from 10 messages from your end, don’t try to text all week like how many do, keep it interesting
    3. Within those 10 messages, ask what their intentions are on the apps. When you hear stuff like “I don’t know see how it goes” or “just bored”… Yeah a high chance the person isn’t there for anything serious. Make sure you guys are on the same page, because women who are actually

    Hypothethical question: Would you date the opposite gender of yourself?

    This question was asked to a group of nyets and it honestly bothers me how I couldn't say yes immediately for myself, haha (?).

  • as in like two hand slaps?

  • My yes: I think this is pretty standard

    • a decent photo that shows your full face,
    • a full body,
    • a group photo, and
    • a photo that shows some sort of hobby.

    My nos:

    • all photos are of selfies only
    • toilet selfies
    • indoor sunglasses selfies
    • photo with just one other girl as if like a couple

    But mostly, I prefer bios. I would swipe right to a full bio and only one photo, but I will not swipe if you have tons of photo and an empty bio.

    Did you know curry chicken in cantonese refers to a love bite? - and other cantonese slangs, dating edition.

    1. Kali Kai (Curry Chicken)
      A love bite. Yeah I don't know why either.
    2. Fah Sum (Flower Heart)
      Heart that strays.
    3. Yat Geok Dap Liong Shvn (One Leg on Two Boats)
      Two-timer!
    4. Bei Yan Fei (Let People Fly)
      Got dumped :(
    5. Kam Kuai (Golden Tortoise)
      Basically a rich bachelor
    6. Kam Yv Lou (Gold Fish Seller/Guy)
      A pedo, yes a pedo.
    7. Siong Chong (Up Bed)
      Fuck. It means fuck.

    Don't come at me I speak canto growing up but I am pretty banana coz I can't read or write chinese so could be wrong!

    Men of Monyet.cc: Would you prefer to date younger or older women? Does it make a difference?

  • hor.. how you know so well they playboy unker.. unless... xD

  • I feel like if you don't want people to reach out to you then don't join..? >.<

    Having them not respond to a host rather than a direct PM surely is less pressure.

  • I haven't, and I'm not sure if I could. The whole point of relo is to have someone to come home to, and I'm not much of a chatter tbh (despite what it might seem like online). I notice that once I get comfortable with someone, I stop chatter and just like their presence near me. It's number 1 signal that I'm in a great place with them: that I no longer have to keep talking to ensure that they are still interested in me.

    Not sure if that's a good thing tbh lel.

  • I'm not so certain there would be pressure, I mean it's sort of what one should expect since we're putting ourselves out there... Even if there is pressure, maybe this would be good practice to not do things out of pressure? :S Not something we don't have control over though, we could always put these in a disclaimer that you have to agree to when you sign up.

    Most likely the people who signed up would not use their username but a nickname that they would actually use to introduce themselves as irl, or at least, that was what I had in mind. Also it's sort of a control test so it's by design; if I am hosting it, then I am responsible. I also serve as a gatekeeper; some girls may be too cavalier about giving out their info or what not and vice versa. I dunno, so many things that we have yet to experience until we actually do it to be able to see this from all angles.

    26 Klang Valley - Short girl looking for a keeper. Pics included.💖

    Heya, June here :) I'm triilingual and love fusion food. Work's been a snoozefest lately due to some complications that remains to be fixed, so I'm super bored. If anyone wants to chat or get to know each other, hit me up – I could really use some friendly company!

    My interests? Oh, I'm all about video games, painting, movies or music – these keep my spirits high! To those who message me, sorry if I can't get back to everyone!

    Don't just say hi, give me something to work with, and let's have a blast chatting!

    Syke, no pics here! ;P (also not necessary just to be clear!)

    This is just an example of what a personals ad could look like!

    Format goes like this: [Age] [Gender]4[Gender] [area] - [a short description]

    So a guy looking for a girl would look like this: 31 [M4F] KL

    A girl looking for all genders would look like this: 33 [F4A] Ipoh

    Also, this doesn't necessarily have to be romantic, it could be for people just looking for online friends/companions too!

    Also, I would

    Men of Monyet.cc: Would you prefer to date younger or older women? Does it make a difference?

    Back when I was still swiping, I seem to have more younger men swipe on me rather than older or even equal age. Is there a reason why? Boys who knows unker a little, do you think my personality may throw off older men?

    Married nyets: how soon did you guys move in together?

    And to single nyets, are you in the "move-in together as soon as you can afford to" camp, or "delay it even when you already can coz reasons" camp?

    Living habits play a huge role in cohabitating happily in the long term personally. Having fun and enjoying each other's company won't have much mileage if you can't stand each other's living habits!

    For some, you may live together way longer than you'd be in love with each other even >.>

    Sharing a home together also gives you an idea on how responsible, proactive, clean and how well they manage and balance chores, duties, and time together. In my (limited) experience, most people who has never lived on their own, generally do not take the initiative or have the know how to fix, improve and maintain a house. I suppose that's not important for some.. but for me who's always taken care of her own space and prioritises on efficiency, I have my way of doing things and living together first can help us optimise ourselves to each other, or it

    I asked ChatGPT to give me some first date ideas under MYR 100 in Malaysia.

    ChatGPT: Here are some affordable indoor date (unker: yes I prompted indoors, outdoors only work if the weather is not hot, or if I can get away with wearing almost nothing, or you know, in a four season country) ideas in the Klang Valley area, all below MYR 100:

    1. Have a movie night at home

    unker: Mayyyyybe third date, but certainly not first! Also ChatGPT, you're way too loose as a woman if your first suggestion is Netflix & Chill!

    1. Plan a DIY spa day: Create a spa-like ambiance at home with scented candles, relaxing music, and aromatic oils. Take turns giving each other massages, facial treatments, or foot soaks.

    unker: This works if you live alone, but also scary if you do live alone.. and I will NOT let a man give me facial treatments (unless..)!!

    1. Cook a romantic dinner together: Instead of going out, prepare a delicious meal together at home. Choose a recipe you both love and enjoy the process of cooking and sharing a homemade dinner.

    Types of men I found on dating apps in Malaysia (a personal experience).

    Okay lemme preface this by saying unker hyatt is also not the best at this. I'm in my early 30s (F), I'm not that great at small talk, I don't have fire one line starters (please share if you do, PLEASE), and I'm also really bad at returning texts, but when I am present, I am present, so take what I write here with a pinch of salt; it's mostly anecdotal but if anyone can relate, please validate my experience T.T

    1. The handsome offshore engineer or pilot from foreign country type
      These have got to be bots, right? I've never stuck around to find out, but they often have very short bios and have horrible English despite coming from majority English-speaking countries.
    2. The level 40++ wizard type
      Personally, I think I prefer having someone that has some relationship experience at my age. I don't think I have the energy to deal with the training wheels all over again and to be honest, I feel like men who's lived alone all this while would find it hard to have the
