Help - How has dating changed in the last 20 years?

[Climber]

Or just put a couple guitars on stands on either side

That could result in failure to engage if she asks him if he can play them and he can't.

"Oh I totally would but they're vintage" lol

Thing is, being able to play the guitar might be a hook, but will it keep a woman around if you have a poor personality and/or hygiene issues?

From outside observation, if the guy can really play the guitar really well and sing well to boot, the other things can be overlooked for a lot longer than you'd expect!

 

[HappyHighwayman]

I agree but I'd say it depends on how much the woman really loves guitar music

And then there is that 'I've been playing for awhile, but I'm not yet ready to play in front of somebody else yet. Maybe in a couple weeks.'

Bonus: shy can be cute!

All of this is just superficial stuff that's good for attracting mates but not having a relationship

Life has taught me that even shitty terrible wife abusing alcoholic whore mongers can find partners

A chick friend I went to school with tried online dating and met a guy who was learning guitar. First or second date they went on a walk and he brought his guitar. He was stumbling to play something that she just wasn't interested in hearing. She got really pissed off and never saw him after.

She then went out with another guy who dragged her out to the woods to meet friends. He gets out of the car goes to the trunk and pulls out a wizard outfit. He didn't tell her they were going to play dungeons and dragons which was something he did often. She actually dated that guy for a while but later said he was just a weird asshole. But TBH she isn't the easiest to deal with either.

That is some truth right there.

There truly is somebody for everybody, though ax murderers do tend to reduce their options.

I saw an interview with that guy.
Very cold blooded guy, he was very matter of fact in describing his murders, kind of like describing how you replaced the battery in your car or something like that.

I've had several guys contact me who have a relationship status of "currently separated"

Am I wrong in viewing this as a red flag? This says to me they haven't fully ended their last relationship but perhaps there are other explanations?

Red flags. Same as talking about your ex on a first date: RED FLAGS.

Posting on dating sites from work while their wives are at home, so technically they're separated.
