Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

I met my husband on plenty of fish in 2019. I found the method helpful. Of course, there were multiple times it didnt work out before I met him, and I hear what youre saying. It makes sense. Idk. Sorry its been a rough go. I feel bad.
my teenage nephews have the same problem as I do. it's wild. probably because their dates are watching the same nonsense as mine on social media and are CONVINCED that all the horrid advice on there is true, when it's completely destructive. my 17 year old nephew got dumped for not taking his 17 year old girlfriend on a $500 dinner date... and i have literally had the same thing happen to me, more than once. there is some 'advice' out there that claims if a guy doesn't take you on a $500 dinner date, then he isn't serious about you or he's worthless. I've never ever in my life ever even been on such an expensive date, even with long term girlfriends. in 2019 women i would date were happy with $50 dinner dates...
