These Texts Women Received From Guys Will Make You Happy You’re Single

When your close friends and family all have significant others, influencers post about their perfect boyfriends, and romantic comedies make you feel some kind of way, it's easy to feel like you're missing out on something by being single.

It's easy to romanticize the idea of dating when you're not actively doing it, so here are screenshots of actual texts men have sent women that will remind you that you're better off alone.

"On Another Note..."

woman: like you made it very clear last night that you never cared about me but I'd appreciate being treated like a human being. Man: yeah sorry about that. On another note I may have chlamydia so you might want to get checked out

She's really out here just asking for him to give her the bare minimum and all he can muster is a little "sorry" before telling her she's going to need to make a trip to the clinic. Pain.

Apparently, She Matched With Shakespeare On Tinder

dear ____, it has been a fortnight since the last time I had spoked with you to that I apologize, I am talking to you on this day to ask a picture of you to fathom its beauty. If you could do me the honor of sending me a visual of thine bottom of even perhaps a visual of thine breast covered in soap it would do me such an honor I might as well die with contentment. Yours sincerely

If I was talking to a guy and he wrote out a message using the words "thine," "fortnight," or "fathom" in a request for nude pictures, I would simply become a nun.

It's not like a "dental hygienist" is a super niche or new profession that people might not have heard of before. Just about everyone has been to the dentist at some point.

That Doesn't Count As An Honest Mistake

Hey jessica, I know it's random but I have to admit that I have a girlfriend during the time we went out on that date. Out of respect for her, I needed to tell you my truth, I know it's super out of nowhere. That was an honest mistake and I never should've went to your place afterwards, or even to go out with you that day to begin with

An honest mistake is when you accidentally call the wrong contact named "Erica" in your phone, not when you actively choose to cheat on your girlfriend by going on a date with another woman.

Not only is this a psychotic question to ask someone you've just met, but I'm so scared by what he means by "trying different things." How is this man pooping?

Women around the world are so lucky to have male feminists like this super enlightened guy helping them combat gender inequality by being a thirsty loser. We could not live without him.

Not only do I have no idea what this woman looks like based on that description, but that's definitely not the kind of thing you should say as an opening message.

This woman is the most patient person I have met, because if a man I'd matched with on Bumble sent me the first message alone, I would have unmatched him on the spot.

Reading the first message in this text duo made me want to claw my own eyes out. The second message still somehow managed to be worse when he brought up his "condom size" for no clear reason and then calling it "pouring his heart out."

I understand that coming up with a unique or interesting first message to send someone on an app isn't an easy task, but this is definitely not the creative route to take.

This guy was so insistent on making his opinion (which nobody asked for) known that he sent the same message twice, so I would like to tell him that he'd sound better if he shut up.

I would like to make it clear that threatening to hurt yourself to elicit a response from someone is toxic and manipulative, and the response you get should not be counted as a win.

The Beatles didn't become the most globally popular band of their time and earn an iconic spot in music history only to have their song referenced by some gross dude like this.

If you're fresh out of a breakup and don't know how to feel about things, the last thing you should be doing is swiping and matching with girls on Tinder and unloading your emotional problems on them.

First of all, The Smiths are an incredibly popular band that most people have heard of. Second of all, listening to a certain band is not a personality trait, but being pretentious about it is.

I cannot imagine the audacity of deciding you not wanting to date someone and thinking that it's totally fine to "pass her off" to your roommate just because he's single.
