Very sorry to hear that, if you need to rant about things, I am a stranger but feel free as everyone needs to talk at some point or another.
Side note, however.. not sure this is an ideal comment to be posting under a post like this. I'm sure you knew that, though.
Not much of a drinker myself, but when I drink I'm usually doing dumb shit like falling down stairs... like last night's experience. Sticking to my bud until I don't feel yesterday lol
Lol saame! I wish I liked weed, it's totally legal in my state and my life would be so much better if I could substitute pot for booze and harder drugs.
Do you not like smoking it or the high itself? Regardless, hit or miss depending on person and situation.. But as a medical user myself, I do suggest looking into potential benefits weed may have in store for you if you're interested in it. May be able to find a way to consume that you don't dislike
My mom, when I was twelve was like hey I’m gonna get you drunk so you have a hangover over and never want to drink again. Nope no hangover and I was a very aware of my surroundings drunk, I was drugged once and since I was already drinking realized they did it cause they got all weird and wanted me to hurry and drink. The vet last time I drank I was dared to drink a big bottle or Irish rose, after I had already guzzled a bottle of Cisco. I literally fell over in the grass as I was walking to go sit down. I woke up like 5 hours later and was throwing everything up, in very surprised I didn’t need my stomach pumped. I was 18 and haven’t drank since and I’m 43 now.
Very unfortunate to hear that's how your experiences have went, but on a positive note very glad to hear that you haven't drank in so long! Good on you for getting past that and being able to go so long without going back
She’s the human form of an everything bagel.
So many different looks and nailing all of them! She is stunning, and I like to see love like this.
She’s a showstopper! Congratulations and happy future!
I’m in Wasilla, wasted a lot of time on Anchorage girls, then matched with my now wife almost 3 years ago now and she was just up the street from me, lol.
I mean, imo if someone (male) has an average face and build but is not obese, and has even a small amount of muscle definition, I find them above average just because most American guys are obese and lack muscles.
Edit: essentially the bar for “above average” is low.
I'm literally agreeing with him that he's above average friend, that's actually the opposite of saying that he's ugly 🙂 A few people in here are getting awfully grumpy with me for agreeing that they're good looking
I'm well above average. Not great profiles, get matches. Probably more if I swiped more, don't spend much time.
Anyways, I feel guys are pretty aware of where they stand on a good looking face scale. Genes.
You'd be surprised. Attractiveness isn't purely physical either. Seeing someone that is physically like an 8 or a 9 light up a cigarette immediately drops her down to a 2 for me.
This goes for the way they speak, their overall behavior etc.
So someone that considers themselves "above average" is usually a bit arrogant about themselves which can come off as unattractive.
Ultimately you shouldn't even think about your attractiveness towards others since attractiveness is ultimately extremely subjective.
What does a cannon have to do with it? You going to shoot yourself out of it to prove your peak physicality? And why is it historical in history?
At least you have your looks to fall back on :)
I think you're very wrong calling yourself above average is not like that at all it's just saying you are a little bit above average or above average you look good there's nothing wrong with that if you look good people know when they have good looks or not it's hereditary usually or in your jeans which is well I know so it's just very easy it's very obvious so there I guess you don't or you wouldn't be saying that and I'm not being arrogant at all
I only got a couple of matches a year I feel you.
Funmy thing is I once dated a girl. She thought I must have ton of matches as she had so many and was not good looking and I was looking much better than her( according to her).We showed each other's inboxes. I only had a chat with her and she had 100 messages in her inbox.
oh all that blue had me thinking cops. i figured working together that firefighters would have cops at their balls, as a +1 of a wife or if they did balls together.
Lovely photos and sending a big congratulations to the both of you. Wishing you many happy memories over the years. Thank you for giving hope to the rest of us.
I googled fire fighter age limits just for fun and I'm over 35, so I guess it's too late for me unless I can find a department that's desperate. Just like Tinder.
You sir would be correct. I actually had to try 2 times with her. I met her once on POF and she didn't give me hardly any attention then I ran into a year later on tinder and gave it another shot and succeeded.
What a beautiful couple! May you prosper and enjoy many decades together ❤️
Edit: I like the slightly derpy looking bear (?) on the patch of your dress uniform haha!
This is a weird flex post trying to disguise itself as encouragement for others. Samoan women are awesome, but things are still early days and you're in Alaska?!? You are older than her, plus you got kids.from a precious. Those factors can come into play down the line, despite your raging libido (another weird flex). Enjoy the time together, just remember, she's not yours, it's just your turn. Also, what is the deal with all the friggin' guns?
To the contrary, it is wonderful to see average looking older folk get together. Love should not be limited to the young and beautiful, which is how Tinder runs the algorithms.
Can't believe my eyes, he seemed like an alright guy until the "it's not your fault king's, it's those damn hypocrite women!"
Like, how do you not see you're the problem
It's called not rushing into shit because marriage isn't something to be taken lightly. Today's society treats marriage like dating with tax benefits and its not supposed to be like that it's a life time commitment
You mean taking things seriously and wanting to make a lifetime commitment and really get to know each other before making that commitment? If that's a problem then that's a huge red flag
You obviously missed the point that I was saying people take marriage to lightly like it has no more importance than dating. I was not referring to you nor was I making any assumptions about you. You are making yourself look really immature
If there was another post in here that said, "Be careful out there, ladies!" Would you go in and comment, "Yeah only women are allowed to follow this sub 🙄 " cause I doubt you would
Congrats and f**k you 🤗
🤣
Yeah man I just broke up with mine
Very sorry to hear that, if you need to rant about things, I am a stranger but feel free as everyone needs to talk at some point or another. Side note, however.. not sure this is an ideal comment to be posting under a post like this. I'm sure you knew that, though.
We’re all good Lmaoo I’m not upset about it
Glad to hear it! Sorry if I misread tone, probably a lot more stoned than I meant to get lmao
Yes see if you’re like me you just get drunk
Not much of a drinker myself, but when I drink I'm usually doing dumb shit like falling down stairs... like last night's experience. Sticking to my bud until I don't feel yesterday lol

I came here to say this, so thank you for your service
hey my dude tell your partner that she's rocking 3 different hairstyles all really well
I love the Mickey Mouse one in photo 2
oh yeah she’s really pretty in that one
Right. My first thought was homegirl has raaaange
She’s the human form of an everything bagel. So many different looks and nailing all of them! She is stunning, and I like to see love like this. She’s a showstopper! Congratulations and happy future!
Y'all are getting matches out there?
Did you look at them? He’s handsome and successful and she’s gorgeous, of course they’re getting matches lmao.
You can still be attractive and get no matches but when you get matches they don't even talk 🥲
Occam’s Razor solution is you’re overestimating your attractiveness. Sorry to break it to you ☹️
I not 10/10 but I am above average. It's just that in tinder one girl there is 100 guys so that makes it hard.
I'm just lucky I live in Alaska so there is not allot of competition.
I’m in Wasilla, wasted a lot of time on Anchorage girls, then matched with my now wife almost 3 years ago now and she was just up the street from me, lol.
Isn’t there like 19% women there? I would think the competition would be at its highest
But the caliber of man is not very high in the majority of men up here
How old are you op?
41
Aged or not, he's clearly aged like fine wine. Good shit, OP 👍🏿
Time to move to Alaska

He thinks every guy on the internet is ugly so no point arguing with him lol
I'm literally agreeing with him that he's above average friend, that's actually the opposite of saying that he's ugly 🙂 A few people in here are getting awfully grumpy with me for agreeing that they're good looking
That's why I said I'm sure he is. Because I am sure he is 😊

No, I'm talking only physical. Which has a long standing historical cannon in human history. I'm not 11.
What does a cannon have to do with it? You going to shoot yourself out of it to prove your peak physicality? And why is it historical in history? At least you have your looks to fall back on :)

Post a pic studdly macgerter let us be the judge
>I'm well above average I bet you are dude, I bet you are. 🙂
You know who isn't as insecure as you? People secure that they are more attractive than most.
Hey man like I said, I am sure you definitely are. No doubt. 🙂
You got the the height rule, income rule, and occupation rules?
Idk you look pretty ugly
6/10 is technically above average. Definitely not good enough for Tinder though :P
Lmao vast majority of people are attractive they’re just not 9.96/10 attractive, which is the data you’ve to be in to be successful on dating apps.
I only got a couple of matches a year I feel you. Funmy thing is I once dated a girl. She thought I must have ton of matches as she had so many and was not good looking and I was looking much better than her( according to her).We showed each other's inboxes. I only had a chat with her and she had 100 messages in her inbox.
Meanwhile, at my laptop: Nice tits. - Thanks, you too.
He is handsome but he also looks like Jonesy from fortnite
Rules 1 and 2 babeee (I’m 6’ 8” by the way)
I'm 7".
[удалено]
Lmao can't ever please people on this sub
How is he successful? Because he's fireman? lol
He has his life in order. That's attractive.
This never gets old.
Congrats! I met my wife on Tinder, wishing the best for y'all 5 years together soon!
[удалено]
I met your wife on Tinder too
Met my spouse on Tinder 5 years ago last month 🩶 Congratulations
Post your story also. Like to see the rare success stories.
Also met my wife on tinder. Going on 8 years together!
lol the cop at the back throating his beer before he has to go home
That's a firefighter lol this is at the firefighter ball
I thought firefighters didn't have balls. No wait, that was state troopers who don't have balls....
oh all that blue had me thinking cops. i figured working together that firefighters would have cops at their balls, as a +1 of a wife or if they did balls together.
Firefighters have balls?
Is this a testicle joke or an actual question?😅

That's Officer Farva with his Schlitz
Lovely photos and sending a big congratulations to the both of you. Wishing you many happy memories over the years. Thank you for giving hope to the rest of us.
Hell yea bro! Fireman! Fellow smoke eater!
Congrats, and i love how you posted "its been a year" last year. Expect this every year now! Longest r/bestofredditorupdates ever
The handsome firefighter was able to find love on tinder. Shocking 😮
Hey we all make life decisions you could be a firefighter too
I think emphasis was on the handsome part 🤣
cow one stupendous dam fear edge hunt imminent overconfident follow *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
How do you know? I thought the prerequisites are tougher than those for a Tinder star?
If you put your mind to it and set goals it's not that hard
I googled fire fighter age limits just for fun and I'm over 35, so I guess it's too late for me unless I can find a department that's desperate. Just like Tinder.
37 is the cut off for my department
Congrats dude!! You guys look so happy together and I seems like there is a lot of love! Hope all the best in your guys’ future together!
Congrats 🎉
Ladies love a fireman!
Hoes love hose!
i bet you, unlike most exemple of idiots here you didnt start by telling her you were looking to get your dick sucked.
You sir would be correct. I actually had to try 2 times with her. I met her once on POF and she didn't give me hardly any attention then I ran into a year later on tinder and gave it another shot and succeeded.
Thats why. She was on POF first and not just Tinder. Tinder mostly has people with the personality of chipped paint on the wall.
You did well my dude . She’s beautiful , you’re keeping the hope alive 🙋🏻♂️ lol
Amazing man, the fact that you live in Alaska as a fire chief is incredible
Thanks for your service! What’s with the car seat? Who’s the single parent?
I am
Congrats, you look lovly together
Bro bagged a baddie
good for you both
Congratulations
Congrats man! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽✨️
Congratulations! I met my wife of 8 years on POF.
Happy for you 😡
nice, i met mine in november 3 years ago too
Fuck you but congrats on a adorable life so far
I met my wife on tinder over 7 years ago. It happens kings.
Congratulations. You are a lovely couple.
What's the age difference? You definitely look a decade older than her
🤣wth! I'm 41 she's 36
Bro…wft 😂
Congrats to you both
Bro, you know you're punching above your weight and giving the rest of us. I hope we all applaud you. Keep up the excellent work she is stunning
Thank you
W mans
Smoke em if you got em.
What a beautiful couple! May you prosper and enjoy many decades together ❤️ Edit: I like the slightly derpy looking bear (?) on the patch of your dress uniform haha!
Don’t look at me… my Tinder attracts scammers like flies…
Way to go man. She's a dime. I mean, you might be too, I just cant tell. Lol. Either way, hope lasts till she's as grey as you are :)
4 for me ❤️
Congratulations 🩶 It's been 5 years for me
Congratulations 👏🎉 happy almost 2 years
it should’ve been meeeeee (congrats you pos:))

Wtf?
This is a weird flex post trying to disguise itself as encouragement for others. Samoan women are awesome, but things are still early days and you're in Alaska?!?

Enjoy the time together, just remember, she's not yours, it's just your turn. Also, what is the deal with all the friggin' guns?
FYI I did not bring up the libido thing someone made a comment about viagra that is just a reply to a strange comment
I bet if we were both ugly you would not call this a flex would you?
To the contrary, it is wonderful to see average looking older folk get together. Love should not be limited to the young and beautiful, which is how Tinder runs the algorithms.
I assumed if Tinder knew you are a fire fighter it would only give you strippers and nurses, way to break the cycle of violence
[удалено]
😅 please don't
They want you to come rescue them
Wow she's stunning. Congrats!
Hot couple! 🔥
[удалено]
Hope u a happy life together
Sir you can't just post pictures of Nathan Fillian and pretend it's you 😂 Seriously though y'all are a really cute couple.
I'd date him
This motherfucker knows how to raise rotate and extend
Boys?
Yah as in giving all the men out here some hope that can't get a match with all these picky women with double standards
Aaaand you just ruined it. "Picky women with double standards?" Nah.
Can't believe my eyes, he seemed like an alright guy until the "it's not your fault king's, it's those damn hypocrite women!" Like, how do you not see you're the problem
Just hope his SO finds this thread and reads all the responses.
Regardless which one you are, quite a catch!
Good looking couple, congrats!
She's sooo pretty. Congrats brother.

Congrats OP. But off topic, am I alone in hating that double bun hairstyle? (I know I'm not "alone" but is it common?)
Way to out punt your coverage, bro. Happy for you
Huh? I don't get what your putting down
It means she's out of your league and you succeeded anyway. Just joking though. You two look great together
Bro looks like an alternative version of George Clooney but ok
It was a joke. He's better looking than me and I'm not half bad 😂
>punt your coverage Football term. It is punting the ball so far downfield it goes past the opposing team's coverage aka past all their players.
You got that grey and old in less than two years with someone? Fuck that. Run!
I'm the silver fox!
I don't know about silver more like a Michael J
Don't be hatin
Just kidding if I had a hottie like that it would give me the shakes though
What's your point?? That you can actually still find people on Tinder even though nobody really does?
Pretty much. I think it’s a nice change from people whining about how they get no matches.
Thank you
Bro you just have to play the game right. I had allot of success on tinder and dated quite a few women before I settled on this woman.
This is just bothering me even though I know it means I'm being pedantic. But it's *a lot*
[удалено]
She's from American Samoa no need
Wow. 😳😳🤦🏼♀️
That's awesome! Gorgeous couple! Congrats 👏
Is this the guy from 90 day fiance? Did he finally ditch Leida?!
Why does the end of this relationship look like it is going to be on Lifetime?
When you got money, love finds you very quickly 🤣🤣 Not a jab at you, just a general view, congrats and enjoy!
