Just Some Sunday Morning Reflection: Success on Bumble BFF

article image placeholderUploaded by @blairbearing
I met a woman a few weeks ago, but I've never had any success on Bumble BFF before. Okay, bumble dating. I've had some success in there, but definitely still single. So obviously we know how all of those successful matches in the beginning have ended. Lol. But I say that to say that, just try new things, you never know what's going to happen

Hi @blairbearing pt 1

Maybe you're just open to a whole bunch of things or whatever. But for me, honestly, I'm very choosy and selective with who I make friends with. Not everybody deserves access to me, if you know what I mean. Me working at Sephora, I met so many other young ladies from all kinds of backgrounds and stuff, and we either were friends or not. But I don't hang out with them after work

Girl, 💜😉 Pt2 making friends…

But then after that, it was her job, and then after that, it was her city, right? Her meeting, her being one of my favorite episodes is her, like, dating her city where Carrie was going out to the movies by know, going to do some errands or whatever. The case is

Merci beaucoup @blairbearing 💜 Happy Sunday

Kind of like the episode I was referring to of Sex in the City with know dating her city because she was single at the time. And so I am single. There is no one out here who I would date in Los Angeles. This guy wanted to take me on one date and it was a complete disaster. It was horrible. He was terrible, Blair. But that's just what I wanted to say. Thank you so much for listening, Blair. Thank you for your time

Part 1 reply @QueenMagenta

It's just nice to have people that you can relate to and talk about things that you can't talk about other things and these nuances. And we can talk about the microaggressions, which actually, I do want to talk about one thing. We are not friendly. We are not friendly to each other when we walk down the street. And especially, I understand why some people feel some type of way about me. But why, as a community, are we like this?

@QueenMagenta part 2

It's the same for dating. I know people come with motives and all types of other stuff. And look, the universe and God is going to weed you out of my life for me. I don't have to trip on it, you know what I mean? He disappointed the devices of the crafties that their hands cannot perform their enterprise. I'm not a super religious person, but I love those words. And yes, they are from the Bible. But thank you for responding

And that made for just some weird assness as far as I'm concerned. So, yeah, no, you seem cool. No expectations as we talk to each other. But, yeah, we can meet up one day and do something like, shit. If it doesn't go right, we never talk to each other again. And I'm seeing you on the app. To me, it's not that complicated, it's not that serious. I'm just a chill person

Part 2 😒

And I'm not the one to type the complaint either. I've been taking it on the chin from people being disrespectful to me and being dismissive of me and being prejudiced, stereotyping and biased and downright racist, as if I did something personally wrong to them when I'm simply just a girl who has her own things going on with herself and that's fine to have and everyone's offended, like I did something personally wrong to them

Merci, Take care

But white women get to be Karen's all day long and no one will bat an eye good. You know what I mean? It's a dangerous trope. It's a dangerous, ugly box to put a person in. It's dehumanizing, and it does nothing for anybody, especially us. But thank you so much. You have a good night. Take care, and good luck on your friendship journey. See you around. Swell

@QueenMagenta reply to my part two

So I really want you to listen to the other things that I post on this app, and maybe you will get a better understanding of who I am as a woman and who I am as a person. But I'm not dismissing you. I'm not dismissing you

@QueenMagenta reply to my part 2 part 2

And then it just became to being unhappy and lonely for a while, and now we're getting back to being happy again. So the headspace that I'm coming from is a headspace of. I get it. I'm not going to tell you all of my business, but, girl, that's why I said all the things that you're saying. I wholeheartedly understand. And see, I don't pay it no mind, and I don't pay it no attention
