"It's Rude As F*ck" — This Man's Viral Dating App Screenshot Has Divided The Internet, And People Have ~Thoughts~

We require to know your thoughts .

Ah, dating apps — an endless source of stress, excitement, and internet drama. After all, they’re relatively new, and they’ve exposed how differently we all approach the task of finding The One.

So perhaps it’s no wonder that a recent dating app screenshot from X user@bjorksunibrowhas torn my timeline asunder. “We’re in an era of over-communication,” their caption read above a screenshot of a pretty detailed cancellation text.

“So many things bothered me about it — the HR professional tone, the fact that he was cancelling a date that he proposed, that he let me know he hit it off with someone else he’d just met, that he implied a future date if things didn’t work out with the new guy… Ultimately, I just think there are kinder and more decent ways to go about cancelling a date, and I didn’t need all that detail before a first date. I date casually quite a bit and try to let someone down in a way in a way that isn’t so crass; that includes an occasional white lie to cushion the blow,” the viral X poster added.

“I also think ‘ghosting’ is excusable in such early stages since a relationship hasn’t been established. I let him know that I didn’t need to know all the info but that it was fine and that I could use some rest in the middle of a busy work week. He said he prefers ‘to be open about things’ and doesn’t like to leave people guessing,"@bjorksunibrowtold BuzzFeed UK.

The post, which has garnered 3.8 million views as of the time of writing, has seriously split opinions on the Internet. There are people who agree with OP:

I ’m regretful … . they just expect you being ok with being a back up ?

It ’s so funny that we are debating this as the choice between ghosting and extremist honesty when the real issue is that it ’s ill-mannered as fuck to tell someone you ’re put them on the back-burner.https://t.co/192fLgtFVN

whatever take place to “ hey i m so distressing but a work thing amount up , could we reschedule”https://t.co/02qW04dj9n

Would rather be dissipate out of a shank then receive this schoolbook , please just ghost me for the love of godhttps://t.co/g7aneleVyt

i used to love being ghosted it ’s as close as you may get to mourn a lover that never give back from their sea ocean trip to the fresh worldhttps://t.co/YyTm7a39VK

you hedge a bullet train . anyone who decide to be exclusive the day after meeting someone has an obsessional and garble position of love

telling someone you ’re their second choice instead of just saying i do n’t think it would work out right now is demented like i do n’t need to lie with all that

…and those who disagreed.

personally ? ? ? ? ? i d attempt to continue friendship after this respectful encounterhttps://t.co/8udxHawC3f

This is normal and fledged , you ’re just mad you did n’t get chosen

I ’d apprise this

This is surprisingly matured . I love this

Still more app users pointed out that while good communication is important, the tone of the message was pretty off-putting.

I would prefer satinpod to a livid Trygve Halvden Lie in this position , but in either case the important thing is I feel like an employee being told by my project handler that I ’m not getting promoted to team head

the ppl being like ' this is fine actually you ’re just mad you got eliminate ' like no that ’s not it , i just do n’t want to be spoken to in corporate feel good jargon by a draw up like i ’m about to be fired from the kickoff up

i think it ’s honest to be upfront w people you ’re in begin degree with that you do n’t wanna appointment anymore ( unless they ’re scary , or you are reciprocally uninterested ) but the reason this textual matter sucks is because the feel and diction is soooo irritating lolhttps://t.co/BIcnLDF6xo

The choice is not between ghost and " radical honesty " there is also always the pick to be normalhttps://t.co/DK1AmjgUgF

I ’d prefer this to being ghosted , but I ’d favour being lied to w/ a bullshit excuse than receive this handwringing crap letting me know I ’m a fill-in in case things go in the south with someone else lolhttps://t.co/UF3N5aU8rI

Then, there was this poster (who I honestly think was on the money):

The replies to this are a cool demonstration that human all have their own specific romanticistic prefences and how some might find this offputting while others find it compelling
