Guys who slide into DM's

[madasacatter]

I had a guy slide into my DM's twice and whilst this isn't the first guy to or even that bad in what he said, something about this one irked me and I feel like as it's obvious from his profile that he has a long-term partner/wife that I should send a screenshot to her.

YABU - It's none of my business, don't send anything
YANBU - Send her a screenshot, she deserves to know about his behaviour

@Edinvillian it has a few advantages...

Nope - no idea.

No idea what it means either, but bloody annoying to have to Google 😂

Spot all the people who had a pet as their profile pic back in the early 2000s 😆

48 here and I know what it means 🤘🏼

Block and move on.

Made me think of this scene in Jurassic World Dominion.

Christ, some threads on here need a glossary of terms. I was totally baffled by this one as DM is predominantly dear mother and the other obvious was Dr Marten's. No one would want to slide into my mother (as far as I know) and I don't own Dr Marten's, I'm more of a Fly London person. For winter only, of course.

I know the phrase but I didn't know anyone actually uses it in real life as it's as cringey as fuck

This 👆 and why didn’t you block after the first time?

Loving all the posters sneering down their noses at the use of insta and tiktok yet here they are on a chat forum, the oldest and original form of social media.......

Please don’t DM the poor woman let her live in her ignorance.

I had not heard of this phrase either and frankly it sounds ridiculous.

The bigger question however is why don’t people have appropriate privacy settings on their social media so this can’t happen?

I'm 40 and know what it means
OP if the girlfriend is a friend of yours then send the screenshots, if not, block him and don't invite unnecessary drama into your life

Yes, it really is. You possibly live under a rock. Google is your friend!

Well I wasn't sneering (down my nose or anything else); I didn't have a clue what the poster meant and said so? If other people want to use these sites that's up to them but they don't interest me and never have.

I enjoy discussion forums so I do use them, but I'm not going to participate in things that I don't want to just because others like them, because how I spend my time is up to me? The above is like saying people who like apples must be sneering at people who like oranges, when in reality they likely haven't noticed and couldn't give a toss.

I'm wondering if anyone here has teenagers and if so, do they speak to them. Or twenty somethings? What's the demographic of MN anyway, I'm guessing it's not quite as young as it used to be.

What you all need to do is watch Love Island. You may never use it but then you'll at least understand this strange new language.

This.

It doesn’t matter whether you have your account set to private or public, people can still send you a message…

OP to answer your question I’d just leave it and wouldn’t say anything to her. Block or don’t block if you don’t want too but leave it be

Well that's fine by me. At least it's a very comfortable, well appointed and expensive rock 😊

It just sounds twatty

OMFG 😂

I was another one thinking of Doc Martins or Dear Mums but now I know what you’re on about I think just ignore it and don’t reply. Block if it persists.

Oh the aching desperation on this thread to be far too mature to understand the phrase in the OP 😆

What a nice rock. You sound very privileged. The downside of that is going to be not knowing how the other 90 percent talk and live so maybe don't announce what the lingo is or isn't going forward.
