You’d be surprised… I currently have two LTRs that started as Grindr hookups…

Same here! Found a couple really great people on Grindr I'm happily still with a few years later. Met a bandmate there too, lol

Yep, I’ve found it really comes down to setting the right intentions up front, and being selective in who you play with. My goal was never to be on Grindr forever, but that’s where I had to go to meet fun kinky trans people in my area.

How old are you? Or is your definition of an "LTR" like 3 years?

Really? Maybe I'm just weird about intimacy or something but my shortest relationship that wasn't a literal joke was like 3 years, most being 4. If people are frequently under that then I wonder why they're diving into relationships they don't have high confidence in... Do people count grindr hookups as relationship?.. I guess I've never been one for dating so...

I was married for 3 years. Felt like a thousand tho. How is a grind hookup equivalent in any way to a 3y relationship?

19

No, I don’t count hookups as relationships, especially not long term relationships. But when they turn into significantly more than that, I do. I don’t need to defend my relationships though.

My definition is relationships I’ve been in for a good while that I intend to stay in. Why the personal attacks though? Seems pretty rude for no reason.

What about the guy who shat in that dudes mouth? Dreams can come true...

I was looking for that post the other day cause I was curious if he went through with it, and it looks like it got deleted.

Yeah, mods are a bunch of anti scat-fetish prudes.

He did go though with it, both were very happy.

You could say the same thing about Tinder, and I've been married for over 8 years because of it.

Grindr has been around 14 years? Weird way to feel old.

Tinder (do the kids even use this anymore) is from around the early 2010s

"online dating" for me still makes me primarily think of match.com and okcupid, lol

You're in luck then because I'm pretty sure match (or the entity that owns it) owns all these dating apps.

So your still right in a sense.

Huh, my experience has been mostly unsolicited dick picks from sentient thumbs that appear to be other peoples' husbands.

A BAD NAME!

guitar sting

I may technically be using the term sting innacurately, but it generally refers to a particular short melody or short riff, that is used as a kind of specific evocative musical 'phrase' in a movie, or a whole soundtrack, or even in a videogame.

Often the simple sting itself can become iconic, and/or be repeated in different variations throughout a larger composition or longer set of scenes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sting_(musical_phrase)

But yes, generally a guitar sting involves more than one string.

... I guess unless its that ramshackle slide guitar Jack White assembled in about a minute, that one time.

This is light years beyond the level of multitasking I aspire to on my best days, so I really have to give my respect.
