Project 140225

All dates are in DD/MM/YY

I went skiing and saw a "Saint Valentine's Party" poster, and I came up with an idea. I will ask out random girls on Discord and see if I can get anyone to hang out with me on Saint Valentine's day.

I started looking at a lot of discord profiles, finding someone who was clearly showing feminine traits in their 'about me'. I ended up making a quite small list of people.

I wrote a message with all of the informations, when I'd be available (14/02 and 15/02), what we could play, and everything. I started sending out the messages to a few of them. Surprisingly, I got a response in less than an hour later. She said she's 16 and rejected the offer.

Nobody else responded yet... I panicked, only two days remained... I sent out a few more messages to some people I scrolled through at random on phone. One of them had "Valentine for hire" in their status. It was probably a scam. :/ jk Two girls responded, both rejections. The first one responded that she's taken and happy. The second one said that she already has a valentine. But out of nowhere, not even two minutes after I sent the message, a girl wrote "Sure!". Perfect, I had a valentine!

I notified the person that accepted, that I won't be available on the 15/02. Another girl responded saying "drop 300", and I was unsure what she meant, so I asked her, and she wrote "$300". I responded that someone already reserved me to be their valentine. She responded "gtfo dummy u a loser; like ong u lying". I do not really condone this behaviour, I tried to be nice and the best thing I was expecting is for someone to say either yes or no, but this is not something I accept, so I blocked her. A girl DMed me "Who are you?" (I was already at sleep at this time)

I responded to the "Who are you?" question with a "I... am Steve" gif, I thought it was quite funny. We had a short conversation about VR stuff, but she sadly was not available for hanging around. The girl that accepted sadly declined, she wasn't home. So yeah, I ended up being alone on saint valentine's day. I joined a vocal chat and started writing this blog.

I DMed all of the girls who did not respond with "if you're reading this at a later date, I hope you had a great saint valentine day!". I contacted some friends of mine telling how poorly this project went. I finished writing the main part of this blog.

The person who had "Valentine for hire" in their status responded with "mb gng hope you had a nice one". Really appreciated the answer.
