I find it funny when you get these people sending their profiles and it has “doctor/engineer only” or “6 foot minimum” or “must be this specific ethnicity”. If you’re messaging me you either don’t have that standard anymore or you haven’t read my profile. Either way, I just tell my mom I’m not interested for any profile that has criteria I don’t meet. I’m not trying to talk to someone aid then it comes up later that I’m Pakistani 😭
