To the girl with the fiancé: some people really do just want to mess with people on tinder. I personally got tinder when I was in a 4 year relationship just as a social experiment (also because I missed the whole dating app phase and I wanted to know what “swiping right” meant). I never actually messaged with any of the guys, but seeing myself get matches was a nice ego boost. And I showed my boyfriend all the funny pick ups lines I received. He was very aware of the whole thing and didn’t care. It genuinely was as innocent as that. I probably kept it up a couple weeks. However, given the other behavior you have described, it does sound like a red flag. If he really wants to “mess with people” he will have no problem including you in the joke.
I’ve never considered sitting in the back seat of an Uber. I don’t think it’s safe for a woman to ride alone in the back seat, it puts her at a psychological disadvantage. You have to sit up front, look your driver in the eye, and command the conversation so he knows you’re not a good victim. And for all these people saying Uber drivers don’t like to talk: how else am I supposed to ascertain if my driver is a psycho who is taking me somewhere to cut out my heart? Gotta be smart people.
I blacked out at dinner with my mother in law this weekend after drinking 2.5 glasses of wine. Being a lightweight is a real problem when you’re trying to befriend the in-laws but have to continually turn down drinks because you’re drunk and they aren’t even buzzed yet.

This is so sad. Halloween is the best day of the year. Sorry all you Christmas lovers, but you have to wear normal clothes in December.
