Context: Tinder girl, we were supposed to Facetime last Friday, but she bailed cause she was on shrooms lol Anyway, I reengaged her this past Tuesday and she was triggered by the voice memo I sent: "Hey, I’m doing great, and that sounds fantastic, I’m jealous, joshua tree is one of my favorite places, but gaylen, how about you tell me about it over FaceTime, for all I know your a russian hacker trying to steal my identity” She didn't get the joke. I wanted to send her another empathetic text tomorrow as a last hurrah since she's pretty hot. Something to this effect: "Look, I totally understand where you’re coming from and I'd be frustrated too... the actual reason I asked that is that something bad happened to me a few months ago and now I’m extra cautious. It’s not personal. You seemed pretty cool." Thoughts?

ha, ive noticed some girls actually do take offense at the whole cat fishing thing. love tryna understand women but dont get the genuine offense. I just personally steer convo in other ways. even though you were joking

then again some guys are truly fucking weird on these apps (ive heard some girls tell stories about guys 'demanding' to see pics of them without makeup to prove theyre real, that shit prob gets old fast). I imagine it also sends subliminal messages that the guy might not be used to talking to girls that hot, so he assumes they cant be real. eg shes 'better than him'

“I would say “Are you always this easily triggered”
