Asking the single people of the OT if dating under lockdown is possible.

I'm in the Orlando area and my last date was at the beginning of the month, I remember joking about Coronavirus about to sweep the nation.

Now with it actually being real and states and cities on lockdown, how is it feasible to actually date?

I'm getting matches and been texting but it's hard to meet for coffee or drinks with everything being closed. No one wants to move past texting and voice.

Not sure when this will be over. If Trump ends it by mid-April like he says then no big deal but if this shutdown goes on for two or three more months like some are saying no one's going to be able to date.

Is any of the OT meeting new people under the lockdown? Doing stuff like takeout Starbucks and meeting at a park (most legit parks are closed anyway) or something? None of matches want to meet for a first date at their house and I certainly don't want to invite a stranger to my house before meeting them.

Hinge and Bumble are freaking worthless with the lockdown at least here in CenFla.

So ready for this to be over. Netflix and chillin by myself is starting to suck.

I just bring chicks to my parents place to cuddle. Got a sweet setup upstairs in the attic bonus room.

Just jerk off with them on SnapChat like a respectable, responsible adult

After reading a number of your posts on here, I'd say get used to that lifestyle.

You're not going to have luck meeting new people. As bored as people currently are, you should easily be able to get some NSA sex with a past girlfriend.

I've been meeting them at parks and places like that. I've have a few that backed out of coming over, but for the most part things are still going as planned.

Have a broad coming over tonight thanks to Bumble. We both tested negative for the virus (we’re both in medical sales), so it’s pretty safe so far. That’s all you can do tho is Netflix and chill at this point. I’ll prob cook for us.

I got bored and downloaded tinder, I haven't messaged any of my matches and probably won't.

Taking a chick out from Bumble for a first date next week. We're going fishing. Safe, fun, laid back, relaxing, drown myself if it goes bad

You just need to take her to the point like they used to do back in the old days.

My first foray into the online dating world started right when this thing got bad. I've been lining up a bunch of dates, with some damn good looking women. This extended texting thing is actually helping me.

Downside is that I've reached the point where a number of them sort of expect continuous communication. So I'm "dating" maybe 5 women with certain expectations but no benefits.

All you can do right now is invite them over. I have one coming over tonight and another tomorrow but I've met both of them before. I quit swiping bc I had two of my better looking matches last week but i got bored trying to keep a conversation going with them all this time. Save the swipes for later

Is this a new chick or one that you met before?

My matches all want to wait on meeting until after the shut down is lifted. I get that people are skittish but not everyone is a carrier. Probability is very low.

With no clue when this lockdown really will be lifted, I am growing anxious. It really is a tough time for being single. Should've cuffed when I had the chance after xmas.
