just kinda wondering, idk if any of you guys are still around, but i thought i'd be nice to hear some advice from any of you who were around during the glory days of the /cp/ general, since my recent visit with a tandem qt kinda ended badly when i actually met her (a lot of it was just stuff in her personal life souring the mood, so it wasn't really my fault much) ,but In any case she wants to be just friends now, so i guess that's my loss, if i ever want to try the international qt route on tandem or somewhere else, what's something i should do or be aware of?

damn, this brings me back to the good ol' days of 2015
it's over

I met the crazy german girl that blocked everyone, didn't go well

>>212017072 (OP)

>tandem
What language should I put as learning? Any meta advice?

>>212017072 (OP)
the method is the language exchange apps

>>212018559
english, but you need to share two languages in common to see someone (i think, i wasn't on tandem for long) so i'd pay for premium and put both english and the language of whatever cunt you want to visit

>>212020391
ye 2015 was when I discovered /int/ and 4chan in general, not sure if this makes me an election tourist.
time flies. the world is not the same and im really not fond of it.

>>212017072 (OP)
I miss my Persian nazi gf.

>>212017072 (OP)
Been with my gf from Tandem for about 4 years. Before that I literally had to work my way up the social anxiety ladder from some penpal app that took a couple days to deliver messages, then texting, then voice messages, then finally calls, then I met her.
It was rocky, and still can be cause we're both autists. But all in all it's pretty sweet. We live together most of the year in Brazil and took a vacation to the Caribbean this year.
All thanks to those culture pals threads

>>212021316
OK so, sorry if this shits too personal, but when you met her, was there any expectation of romance? cuz i think where i fucked up with my qt was instead of flirting with her, i basically just autistically asked if she wanted the meetup to be romantical, she was hesitant so it kinda mentally stopped me from trying to advance shit

>>212022092
Advancing things was awkward as fuck, it was technically meeting as friends, but we had been lightly flirting for months. At the end of the first meet I just asked if I could hold her hand, that was as far as I had confidence to do.
We went from flirting, to her deflecting, to making out, to her going cold, me going home, then her reaching out again after I was moving on
But I'll say that being together felt really easy and natural from the beginning. I slowly got better at putting less pressure on things, and she got less likely to run away at the first sign of anxiety.

I can't say anything for your situation, but remember that the girls on there are just as autistic as us. Those forces batting together can cause unpredictable outcomes.

>>212022448
yeah thanks, my shit's kinda similar but i don't know if i'm coming back from it, honestly if your willing to answer more stuff i'll just give you my 'cord so i can ask from there

>>212017072 (OP)

>>212023122

>>212017072 (OP)
Modern interpals is mostly Indonesians, Indians and Nigerians.

>>212017072 (OP)
>>212017072 (OP)
interpals is dead
it's only gambian spammers, gay turks, moroccan girls with no face pic and indonesian hijabis now

>>212021025
you think so
but I stopped posting here for a good few months, and I realised that this place fills a void.

>>212020449
this

>>212023400
You don't need to tell me, I'm well aware

>>212023400
True. But its like an endless loop where the exact same topics and stuff get posted and talked. Like the groundhog day

>>212023184
A lot of girls from MENA countries in Europe that use it. You just need to use the filters right, by county and then language, so Europe, speaks Arabic, Farsi, Turkish etc

People say it’s dead but all you need is proper use of filters and some game. Come on strong in half and just be funny or insightful for the other half.

>>212021316
is she brazilian?

>>212017072 (OP)
I moved in with and married my qt.

>>212017072 (OP)
is Tandem better than HelloTalk that shit has warnings now for users when you try to type in phone numbers. HelloTalk is over now

>>212023400
>>212023661

Same here
As a 30something with a gf, a demanding full time job and my parents who are leaving this world and require medical attention, 4chan has become my way to satisfy my brain's need of social time. It's the equivalent of going to the local bar, disconnect and have a beer with my friends.
Tried to quit it, I managed to reduce the use of internet and smartphone in general, less time on shitty apps and news website, but with 4chan I realized it was harder than I thought. It really does fill a void.

>>212026774
That Tuvan girl right?

>>212028650
She's Polish (I'm not, I moved). But I was engaged to a Turk qt before that all fell apart.

>>212028836
Damn I thought you were the Polish guy who got this Tuvan gf from interpals. Well good on you anyway, where are you from?

>>212028865
Ah don't think I remember him from the old days. I'm British, it's hard to adjust here but it's a nicer life than I had back home.

>go on interpals
>filter by gender: women
>everyone is eastern european or turkish
>filter by gender: men
>everyone is western european or north american
Hmmm

>>212028836
Where are you from originally?

i met an irish girl on penpalworld which is like interpals, dated her for three years. this was several years ago though.

>>212017072 (OP)
I miss my turkish emo gf

>>212029950
Just look at his next post >>212028894

>>212031493
Hmm, so Indian.

>>212017072 (OP)
yes these threads made me live with an awesome girlfriend for years and then she broke up with and it ruined my life

>>212033073
Why did she break up with you>?

>>212033191
met a guy that made way more money than me

>>212032417
Indians aren't British and they never will be.

>>212033218
Damn bro, so she didn't actually love and cherish you.
Keep looking, the moment you give up, it's actually over.
Even if you fail, you'll be able to look yourself in the mirror and think that you did your best.

Didn't meet her on interpals but I met my gf online, I really did love her, we met up IRL several times and then we broke up and I've been mentally broken since

>>212033308
She broke up with him too and then just stayed single afterwards. I think she might be a lesbian and is waiting for her mother to die before coming out of the closet because her mother lives with her.

>>212034049
How do you know?

>>212026946
yeah, i was able to exchange numbers on tandem no problen
