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.

Not to an incel, they base their entire life around it. Everyone else just gets on with their life until they randomly meet someone.

Trying to force a relationship out of thin air never works, which is part of the reason why dating apps would never work even if they weren't paid to win.

Dating apps are an option if you don’t meet people of your preferred gender and age group somewhat regularly.

How do you not panic and delete it every time you get a message that's not immediately identifiable as a bot? Lost my nerve at the first human looking "Hey" and nuked my account.

Dating apps used to work very well before the shareholders got greedy.

And even today they work somewhat well

Dating apps do work enough that people use them. Heck I met my wife through a dating app. When I was single hearing that would just frustrate me because I couldn't even get matches and at a certain point of that I had to take a break for a year+ just for my mental health. But it did eventually work out.
