And they're fake hikers and travelers too. I met somebody irl who said one of their interests was eating food but they just go to the places for the vibes and not for the food. Whereas I'm the complete opposite, I would go to a crack den for the best food.

    A date I had said their hobbies were walking and hiking among other things. Our 1st date was at a local park with a 20 step stair case that took her out... It was my first exposure to this bizarre labelling that goes on here.

    There wasn't a 2nd lol

    Humans are just animals at the end of the day. This is all a sexual display of fitness. Hiking and traveling tell people you're physically and financially fit. You can move around no issue. You are social. You are socially and physically healthy.

    They lie a ton and show pics of hiking from 5 years ago and act like they can still do all that. Or they never could and the pics are deceiving... Regardless, it's just a game all genders are playing to show sexual fitness. It looks like carbon copies because it's the best way to communicate "my body moves well and I can afford luxury".

    I had a firdt date with someone who loved hiking. I asked her if she wanted to go on a trail i like. I was worrued that it was maybe to long and steep, or maybe even to short. When we met, she was way bigger than i expected. I told ger that we could do something else, but she insiated. She was super slow and i was worried sge's gonna pass out. She asked me if how far we have to go, when i could still see my car. Similar thing happened when i went on a vike ride with someone who was really into cycling

    The best food is usually in places like that too. My home city has this literal hole in a wall mexican place. You know it's good when it's also a grocery store and nobody speaks good English except for the kids who are the wait staff. Best fucking food I've ever had and I'm gutted because they closed down 6 months later and I don't know if they moved or went out of business 😭😭😭

    I have a Pavlovian response to seeing shelves of spices and dried peppers in unlabeled bags in a language I can't read because of this. If I'm already hungry and I walk in to a new place and see that suddenly I'm ravenous.

    Ohh a group of my friends has someone like that. Although everyone has been getting increasingly distant from her as she won't turn up to anything that isn't fancy enough for her, and there is an increasing feeling that she only ever messages us when she doesn't have anything else she would rather do going on - we hear from her much more when she is unemployed and single.
