So guys, some things:

insomniasexx and I will be staying at an apartment overnight "close to public house" and "directly next to everyone's favorite dive bar mary annes" according to my friend. If we can arrange to end up the night near those places that would be wonderful. I don't know what those are.

My friend says that subway runs late on Friday but not Saturday (and tells me not to ask) but that we could take an Uber home. If we are not near the apartment by the close of the evening.

I am still determining transport into the city and arrival times. I will let y'all know.

The subway and a few bus lines run late on both Friday and Saturday nights. http://www.mbta.com/riding_the_t/default.asp?id=6442451913

I'm excited. I'm scared. I'm coming in to Boston Friday morning and leaving Sunday afternoon. I'm going to have to learn about things like public transport and getting around in a new city by myself and OMG NEW TINDER MATCHES GUYS. No but really, I truly hope this will be a great time.

Never heard of Mary Annes but dive bars are rad. If it's close to Publick House are you staying in Brookline then?

I could have sworn the T and buses run late Friday and Saturday night, but not Sunday. If you break out Tinder I'm so going to judge your taste in men...and the men themselves for that matter.

Stoked? Yes.

I have to get on Tinder ASAP apparently.

_refugee_  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Dude get on Tinder in Boston and we will have the funnest time. We will just tell all our matches to meet us at the same bar.

insomniasexx  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Alright I'm officially on Tinder and I already found true love.

That was easy.

_refugee_  ·  3612 days ago  ·  link  ·  

whatever happened with this dude?

insomniasexx  ·  3612 days ago  ·  link  ·  

We met up and had drinks. It was fun. He lives in San Fran and is only in LA for like every other weekend. He was down last weekend when I was in North Carolina and he'll be down this weekend when I'm in Boston so...yeah. He's cool though. We text 24/7 still.

_refugee_  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

You assholes, you make it look so easy.

;)

Edited to add: All I get are offers of rough sex. :,,,,,,,,,,(

insomniasexx  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I'm much better at being clever when I can think, google, and type. :P

edit: I've gotten a couple of those. Best opening line, "can you be my fuckbuddy?" I put that I only fuck after a great, deep conversation in my blurb. It's helping? I think?

edit2: also, what's up with EVERY guy telling me how tall they are? I don't give a fuck. Tell me what you do for a living dork.

ButterflyEffect  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

So tempted to badge that conversation. Must resist.

I don't get offers of rough sex or being fuck buddies, must be doing something wrong...nor do I make though offers though. Wait maybe that's how I should open conversations. It all makes sense.

I also don't get the pictures of fish and/or riding horses.

insomniasexx  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I liked one guy because his blurb was one line: "I get it. You've all been to Machu Picchu and ride horses."

    I don't get offers of rough sex or being fuck buddies

I think it just depends on what you are looking for. I found that a lot of guys have 0 information in their blurb. I always swipe left on those. I'm not going to start a conversation with a guy who wants me to start a conversation with him based on photos alone. I'm not that shallow.

_refugee_  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Okay so I guess part of the problem is that my profile says the following:

    "I like to have a lot of fun

    Must be 21 or older to play"

But I'm also.... Not really looking? Single yes trying to mingle sure trying to find something meaningful? No

Since we're sharing these things:

    I play with chemicals for a living. Huge into garage rock and other music.

    College Radio DJ, record label founder, guitarist, and foodie/beer enthusiast.

    Enjoy docs, French culture, and being outside. Doesn't catch fish or ride horses. Please don't kill me. RIT '15.

I'd swipe right it.

This is mine:

    Creative. Designer / front end dev / workaholic with a habit of making spontaneous and stupid decisions involving whiskey Wednesday nights. The internet is my friend.

    LA -> NYC (NYU Film / TV) -> Sydney -> LA.

    I love exploring, traveling, and finding places without cell service. I try to balance the glow from my computer with the glow of the sun. Skateboarding, hiking, surfing, swimming, anything. Adventure is out there.

    I really don't care how tall you are. I don't fuck until I have a deep conversation.

_refugee_  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Seriously I just added "Must be 21 to play" today.

I don't know, the only time I will meet some one off of Tinder is probably when we are in Boston.

_refugee_  ·  3631 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Yes, it's in Brookline!

ButterflyEffect  ·  3631 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen live there sometimes. Let's go hang out with them. Also if you're in town Friday night let me know if you want to get together!

_refugee_  ·  3630 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Heck yes!

So you're staying in Brighton. It's not too far from most places mentioned. Mary Anne's is a bar my buddy used to work at.
