I was seriously thinking about doing this a few months ago. I was married a long time got divorced awhile ago. Decided to try dating sites for the first time wasn't a fan. I figured I could walk around with a sign on me and if they liked what they saw we could go from there.

u/Truth_ Sep 06 '26
I was wondering the other day what "older" dating looked like (30s, 40s). On the one hand, there's a much smaller pool. On the other, the pool is hopefully less crazy/immature and more clear in what they want. Is that right at all?
Then I wondered if it meant everyone was awkward because they had to wonder why these other people had never married or were divorced (which isn't fair, there's all sorts of regular reasons).

Yeah just make them simple silicone/something else cheap rings (you could call them "Ringle" for single rings) or bracelets (can't think of a stupid/clever name for bracelets). Getting the movement started would be the hard part for sure, but either making them suuuuper cheap (or easy to make yourself!) could help a ton.

u/Canvaverbalist Sep 06 '26
I wouldn't pick that basket simply because holy shit imagine being approached by someone and having to, even implicitly, go "oh yeah no sorry I'm single and looking but eww no not for someone like you"
Rejection is already painful, but when it's by someone who you know is deliberately looking, it's even worst, at least in a normal setting you have the benefit of the doubt that you might just not be interested generally in a relationship, already in one, maybe you're gay, etc. Here? It would absolutely feel personal lol

u/Sea_Scientist_8367 Sep 06 '26 edited Sep 06 '26
Basically just a picnic, but specifically with ice cream (and other similar frozen treats).
Used to be a common thing people would do essentially as an excuse to have people over and hang out, or go out and meet up. Also often manifested as a community, school or work event, kinda like bingo night you'd have ice cream social night. It was common enough that establishments like Dairy Queen and what not's success were largely predicated on the tradition, but have persisted through a pivot to the fast food and/or food truck model.
In some places you can still find Dairy Queens (and similar establishments) with the walk-up window.

So, funny story.
When I was a kid living in Racine, WI (which was/is a total shithole of the US), we had a neighbor that had a nanny (possibly exchange student) from Finland who's name was Katja.
She went with me and my family to Disneyworld in Florida to watch our neighbor's kids, and she had the most amazing time ever. I remember this distinctly because even as a kid she had this look of wondrous amazement on her face that I hadn't seen before on any adult in my experience. Katja was probably 19-20 at the time.
I say this because even as a pessimist and a nonbeliever, even in the shittiest places at the shittiest times, good things can happen that change your perspective.
I hope and wish your perspective is changed soon, and that you live a beautiful life going forward.

As someone who is painfully single and shy, I actually love this and might actually try it if they had those in my area. I like that it's not a giant "boyfriend free girl" sign or a shirt you have to read. Pink is easily identifiable.
I dont think you can even look for a relationship without someone claiming you're desperate, but i love how casual this is. It's just a color that quickly states "I'm single and open to a relationship. If you think I look cute or interesting, let's chat and maybe become friends."
I personally hate the idea of giving myself a bio or explain myself in an app. No matter how genuine I make it, it always comes off as masturbatory to an extent. I'd rather have someone just like me for me rather than trying to convince them why they should like me.
All in all, I love this. Anything that brings us together is a win.

This is nice in theory, but I'd never use one myself. For one thing, when I'm shopping, which I do once a week for the entire week, I'm just in shopping mode. I'm not dressed for it, I'm not in the right head space. I go in, with a purpose, I do my thing and I get clear. The vibe just wouldn't be there.
Also imagine how humiliating it would be if you're a regular at the supermarket, as I am. I've been shopping at the same one, every week, for about 6 years now. Imagine doing that with the desperate pink basket every week. And still coming up empty. In front of god and everybody. Like I know other patrons probably won't give a hoot or even notice, but the cashier and I are on a first name basis, I know all about her cats. She'd notice.
I still think it's a good idea though. I sometimes have people my age ask me to get something for them, like baking soda off top shelf. Which I'm always happy to do. But then I do wonder, were they trying to hit on me? But I can't do anything about it, because I don't want to be one of those guys that goes "Here's your baking soda, and here's my weenis, your life is now complete!" Maybe the woman just wants to bake in peace.
