I think it’s been established that dating apps are the worst but I’m gonna complain about it anyway because this really bothers me.

I cannot tell you the amount of couples that hit me up wanting me to be their third. I’m not judging those who are into it it’s just never been my thing. I am jealous and territorial and can be insecure at times but I know this about myself and I’m upfront about it and try my best to work on it.

It became such a problem that I had to write “I am monogamous,” on my profile and I STILL get people messaging, adding me to ask if I’ll do it and shockingly, it’s almost always the guy’s idea. It just gives me a really gross feeling because it never feels like 2 people who are genuinely interested in me as a person but somebody trying to spice up their relationship with some shiny new toy or a guy that’s too afraid to leave his girlfriend but can’t bring himself to cheat on her either.

Am I going insane? Is this a problem any of you guys face?
