If I can add my two cents, an organic meet cute is overrated. We all want that cute “we met in a bookstore and bonded over favorite authors” story but it has so little bearing on the actual relationship. My guy and I met on tinder and had a very original first date at a brewery lol. But four years in and that part is inconsequential.
Take that step and see what happens! Regardless, it sounds like you’re headed that direction, so best of luck!
See, I never really have meet cutes. I do what you did and got no where. I've met loads of guys and girls on dating apps and they all ghost.
I don't get the hate for meet cutes outside of they are hard to achieve and take lots of patience.
It’s not “hate” for meetcutes, it’s just resistance to the idea that a cute origin story has any substantial effect on the future of the relationship.
I mean, its a common thing I see that people seem to try and discourage. Seems like people don't like it in general for some reason.
