Dating is sort of like playing a game of charades — the other person gives you a bunch of unintelligible signs, and then you have to guess what it is they’re looking for. And unfortunately, people usually aren’t even looking to put “labels” on their relationships, so you basically end up in romantic limbo.
If you’re exhausted by the “what are we?” conversation and just wish that dating could somehow be more straightforward and less of a confusing pain-in-the-ass, then these tweets are definitely for you:

Hook-up culture’s not for me. I’d rather get to know someone, find out they’re not right for me, then keep dating them for 2-3 years
