Does anyone actually meet up on here?

I’m trying to meet moms to be in my local area and despite a lot of profiles saying they want to meet other moms, go for walks, brunch/lunch, my experience has been that many on here either don’t pursue or help move a convo along when chatting on the app, are super slow to respond, or if you do arrange to meet up they flake…It’s frustrating since I actually want to meet ppl in person and not looking for online pals.

I want to meet new people as well but no one wants to move it along or meet up and your right it is frustrating because like you said I'm not looking for online friends

I have, three times with the same person and the playdates were literally 4hrs each. It was great at first but then I realized that there were a lot of things from both the parents and the child that I couldn't continue engaging. It's unfortunate but you really have to be careful. Discontinuing relationships is really hard, but don't force it out of desperation. Just something I've learned recently.

Yea it’s annoying! I feel like everyone wants to give the “impression” they’re up for meeting new moms but when it comes to it no one can be bothered..

Ah good insight! I can definitely see that happening also in the future…I’m just trying to get past the first hurdle of actually meeting ppl face to face 😂

Lol it does make it difficult to want to keep trying. I'm already antisocial and some people don't make it any easier! 😂 I was also slightly more "aggressive" with setting the first meeting. I don't like wasting time.

A lot of people want to be pen pals. It’s a bit of work to find a few who want in person friendship.

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers

If your partner got a prostitute pregnant and then abandoned the child/ran away, what would be your response? Read…

So you were not in a relationship at the time or were about to be in a relationship, he gets the prostitute pregnant.
It’s her fault for not taking their morning after pill.
He tells her straight up that he’s not going to be involved and that she should terminate it.
She says that she won’t terminate and she hopes that he does stick around

So she deliberately gets pregnant, basically traps him

What would be your reaction?
he’s response is:
“She trapped me and it’s her fault for not taking the pill”
