A man you’re considering dating sending you fart videos

Would this put you off? A short video of him doing some DIY during which he lifts up a leg, farts loudly and says ‘that was a loud one’. I laughed it off but now he’s sent a tic tok video link of someone farting into an intercom in a store and I’m thinking our sense of humour is not aligned as I thought it was. Am I being too precious? We’ve only been talking online for 2 weeks and my immediate thought was ‘eurgh, how unsexy’.

Nope.

Luredbyapomegranate · 13/03/2022 00:08

Jesus can you imagine having in your house, meeting your friends and farting in your bed.

Dump / block

Oldh · 13/03/2022 00:13

Um, seems like hot air to me.

Thewindwhispers · 13/03/2022 00:14

Imagine those jokes every day for the rest of your life.

Flee!

Blossom64265 · 13/03/2022 00:16

Somewhere out there may be a person who gets that video, laughs, and can’t wait for the first date. That is the person for him. It’s not you and it’s not me. If this thread is any indicator, he may have a long search ahead.

BitOutOfPractice · 13/03/2022 00:32

No. Hard no. Hell no. All shades of no no no

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 13/03/2022 00:35

Well it sounds like you won’t be getting a ring on it any time soon OP

Mind you don’t pull it….

Justilou1 · 13/03/2022 00:35

Has it occurred to you that maybe he’s leaning into telling you about some kind of fetish?

Branleuse · 13/03/2022 00:41

That would actually repulse me.

Charles11 · 13/03/2022 00:41

He sounds very immature, pathetic and disrespectful. Complete turn off.

HailAdrian · 13/03/2022 00:46

@Kanaloa

Didn’t know my 8yo could do DIY.
That made me chuckle
Back21970 · 13/03/2022 00:49

I’ve just started OLD and this would be a total turn off and deal breaker for me, I would be wondering what would be coming next!

You deffo don’t need to lighten up, you need to get rid.

caringcarer · 13/03/2022 00:49

Would not suit me. I would find it a real turn off.

angelcakebananabrain · 13/03/2022 01:01

I find farts absolutely hilarious in the right situation but I would still find that really gross and a turn off from someone I was considering dating. That’s the kind of humour that comes out when you’ve been together a while and aren’t on your best behaviour any more. It would just be a bit grim from someone I didn’t really know yet.

Aquamarine1029 · 13/03/2022 01:04

Fucking hell, I've heard it all. Run for your life. Block him, move if you need to. You'd have to be crazy or desperate to date this fuckwit of a man.

TonyThreePies · 13/03/2022 01:09

Sending you a fart video, bit iffy but not a deal breaker just yet. But filming himself farting? Nope. He's testing your boundaries OP.

needingpeace · 13/03/2022 01:18

Gross.

me4real · 13/03/2022 01:26

No. 'What would the romantic hero do?' Not this. I suppose it might suit a few women, but not others.

tkwal · 13/03/2022 02:05

I think he would be a person I had formerly considered dating

RantyAunty · 13/03/2022 05:49

No way. Gross.
Delete and block.

Also stop with the multiple weeks of chatting.
A day or two of chat, phone call, video chat, then meetup.
If someone won't do this, they are just playing around online.

In 2 weeks of chatting, you could have had 3 or 4 real dates.
2 weeks time waster vs meeting 3 or 4 real people.

spacehardware · 13/03/2022 05:54

Agree with Ranty. Unless there's a distance / work commitment issue that has prevented meeting up, you should meet people you seem to click with within days. Don't get invested in a messaging version of someone. See if there is real chemistry ASAP

Oh not with this guy obvs. He's a no

RedRobin100 · 13/03/2022 05:57

Gross

No thanks

KatherineJaneway · 13/03/2022 06:19

No. Would put me off completely to be honest.

Joystir59 · 13/03/2022 06:21

If someone does or says something YIU find off putting pay attention to YOUR feelings and reactions, trust them and act accordingly. You don't need anyone else's permission to bin someone off.

tara66 · 13/03/2022 06:33

Is this some form of pond life you have encountered here?
