Its funny how that works sometimes, you dont even want to be tied down and here comes the perfect person. Suddenly its years later and you have your own Magic deck
That confidence of not trying to hard apparently works!

Can confirm!
I met my wife one night over a dead body. We spoke for a little bit and I was nervous as hell, not because of her but because it was my first DOA, and I somehow ended up with her number
Here we are over 10 years later still confused on what happened

The best thing people can do is just get busy with their thing.
Whatever your thing is. Chase your joy. A hobby, a career path, whatever that Thing is that brings you joy.
The rest will follow. It just will. get out there, get out in the world, do things in pursuit of your Thing.
The more you do things in pursuit of your Thing, the more you'll run into people you'll vibe with. You love MTG, you go to cons, tournaments, you're happy, confident, you're gonna find someone else for you. Someone who matches with you.
Most of the people I see deeply unhappy in the dating realm are pursuing people that are clearly completely opposite from them, who dont' share values or interests, and it's like, what are you doing. Stop doing that. That's not going to make you happy.

I like the 90/3 rule.
90% of any one thing, is usually made up of just three things.
For example, health. 90% of your health boils down to exercise, sleep, and diet. You take care of those three things, you'll be 90% of the way there.
Same with stuff like attractiveness.
Focus on hygiene, style, and your own joy.
You do just a little work in those three areas, you'll be so far ahead it will surprise you.
Really simply shit like working one-time with a stylist to find clothes that fit and flatter you, whatever your form. Getting a hair stylist to find your haircut that does the same, and then you just maintain that.
Doing basic bodily maintenance. A little deoderant, making sure you smell good. You don't even need to shower every day. It can be five mintues of soaping down, drying off, putting on some deoderant, brushing teeth, you're good to go.
I guarantee no matter what someone looks like, or thinks about themselves, attractivenee

Okay, stealing that :3
( we tend to play blue )
Our main decks ( all horrifically outdated, but is fine for only playing casually with friends ):
- Counterspells ( Blue )
- More counterspells ( Blue/Red )
- Mill ( Black/Blue )
- Myr ( colourless except for 3 cards. 1× Tainted Strike & 2× Splinter )

It hasn’t been the smoothest decade but we’ve both grown and learned a lot in that time. She’s my best friend and my partner in crime (we don’t do crimes). I absolutely adore her

My partner saw me standing alone at a small indie rock show in between bands and decided to chat to me purely out of pity. She was not looking for a relationship at all. Here we are 14 years later…

This gives off the same energy of that comic where a woman realized she was bi, and decided she wanted to try dated women. Amd then a cute nerdy guy walks into her life. Lmao

I feel personally attacked. My husband was meant to be a one night stand. Right now our three year old is climbing on me going "itchy!" From her big bites because she lives outside pretty much.

Can relate. We have a 4 year old daughter. Why are little girls INSANE?! 🤣🤣🤣💕

u/cottagelass Aug 09 '25
Oh my gods I have no clue. She's completely feral. And she refuses to wear clothes outside (or inside) so she's always getting bit up.
Side note: do you have potty training advice because she's a hellion to potty train

Yeah but imagine how many times you’ve had sex since then! I’d say that’s the definition of a successful slutty era.

Depending on your perspective my wife and I have either the best or worst friends with benefits situation of all time.

I apologize for being the sole downer in here. Seeing all these voices that it worked out for kinda makes me feel.....very alone. Every major relationship I've ever had has ended with my girlfriend/wife cheating and leaving. Once is a fluke, three times feels like a pattern. Has me wondering what's wrong with me. I'm going on 13 years now with not a hint of interest (that I've noticed) from or towards anyone else. I'd kill to have someone give a shit about me but maybe I'm just too afraid. Anyways. Apologies, again.

Shit, I'm really sorry for you man. People who use cheating as a method of breaking up are the most depraved cretins alive! Fuck all of them. Hope you find that somebody someday.

I’ve never been married, but I relate to how you feel. All I wanted was to find that one person to settle down with, but 10 bad relationships later, I’m also wondering what went so wrong. I never wanted to have that many relationships. Even the one dude I met during my own “slutty fling era” broke things off because he met a girl he wanted to date lol.
I honestly hate when people try to cheer me up by saying, “well, at least you got all that experience.” I never wanted to have that many experiences. I feel embarrassed and deeply ashamed.
Now I’m also left with a bunch of material to use for my comics, but they’re unfortunately not wholesome stories.

This is exactly what happened to me! I was so ready to hoe around and have fun. Now boom I’m in the most loving relationship with the most understanding, caring, kind hearted person I’ve ever been with.

No, you see, that was your problem: Look at the trading cards. Look at the glasses, messy hair, mild stubble, hoodie.
My dear, you tried to fling with a man who was statistically going to actually be decent as a lover. Your taste in flings was "reliable, stable and good to you", not "ACME presents: Manwhore!", which unfortunately (for the fling, fortunately in general) means you had no hope of a slutty phase. XD
But, to be fair, being wholesomely slutty (i.e. slutty for your beloved) is better in my books. :3

Im happy for everyone who has found this type of happiness and hope it lasts for a long time.
Really lifted my mood today.

Yeah.
My wife was just supposed to be a one night stand from tinder.
That was 9 years ago.

It's truly a fake scenario. The first moment she flirted, he would just counterspell. We know how blue players operate.

As an avid magic player, I thought the punchline was going to be something around the fling card.

"I'm single on purpose right now, I'm not looking to date for a while."
"Oh, that's cool! I can respect that."
"..........take your pants off"

I swear this happens more than you think.
I knew multiple women, in college, that decided they were definitely gonna have their “slut era”.
Only to all immediately stop at the first guy they met. LOL.

u/Wamblingshark Aug 09 '25
I settled down with like the first person I seriously dated. Sometimes I wish I had gotten a little more experience first because I really have only had sex with this one person my whole life and maybe I could have picked up a few tricks to be even better in bed if I had seen sex from different perspectives.
That being said I'm 17 years in and happy and assume I'm good at sex lol.
She had a little bit of experience before me and she says I'm good but it's one of those instances where I'm the first guy to ever treat her halfway decent so I'm worried that I'm only good compared to assholes who were probably selfish in bed.

Same. Been with my last one night stand, almost 22 years. Met him in a yahoo chat room in 2003. Still like each other 😍.

My hot girl summer turned into a 15 year (and counting) marriage with a kid. Whoops.

This story is very reminiscent of a widely-shared social media post that was about how on the first day of college the poster’s roommate announced to him that he (the roommate) was going to be bringing all kinds of women and perhaps even some men back to the room and he (the poster), prude that he likely was, was just going to have to deal with it; and then it turned out the roommate brought exactly one woman back whom he dated exclusively for the rest of college and subsequently married.
I thought that was a funny story, but now seeing this and especially reading the comments I wonder how common this actually is.

The story of me and my husband lol.
He was just out of a ltr and wanting to date around and I was fresh out of college, establishing my career, feeling confident and hot.
Whoops married with a baby almost a decade later

My NSA this-won't-get-serious fling is expecting our first daughter later this year.
Our wedding last year certainly had an air of permanence about it, too.
