HelloTalk: GenZ's New Dating App
So, that's where you've been flocking these days, huh.
First, you just got to learn some language under the pretense of "English" or some "Japanese." And for some unknown weeks turning into months later, you're eventually dating.

♪Bling, bling. Under the moonlit floor♪

And here I thought I no longer have it in me. Damn, I'm back to my catfish default (lol). And so curious that I am, I'm out and about to check out Gen Z's new dating hub: HelloTalk.
A platform that no longer centers about your looks or your hobbies but now try about learning "languages" together.
Haha.
In the end, I ended up joining a live voiceroom with a Filipino bro who's currently based in Japan. Hosting a spoken Japanese (in his thick Pinoy-accent) real time. Shout-out to kuya. You totally get me. Lol.
(≧▽≦)
I had a blast pranking him on that one. But our humor does the work so... it was fun with him around.
Anyway, good times.
As always, don't take things seriously. Take this with a grain of salt.
And for the life of me, how do the physics and chemistry work in HelloTalk as your newest dating app, if I might ask?
GenZs? Tell me.
You think I might find a hot French beau on that app?
(.❛ᴗ❛.)

Aryt, I'm learning French. Allez!

Update (1):
Whoever said that you'll find your international soulmate on HelloTalk is a fucking scaaammmm. Like who goes there and thought: hmmm.... I might hit on some new guy on this platform? What would I say? Habibi, come on over. Coz they be slidin' on first chat that quick.
And you know what, it's written all over the place that there's "NO ROMANCE" on their bio. Get it? Young people of 20-24 years old? You don't get to have your ex- boyfriend on HelloTalk, duh.
"Hi, babe. Good morning, did you sleep well?"
"Hey, mochi matcha-chi, eat well, okay??"
And some naïve international young adults be eating this shit up. (≧▽≦)
Sighs...
Younger GenZs... this older GenZ is busy with work. But it's fun knowing you had your fair share of exes.
Lol.
Like every SNS made ever and you're the native nomads.
Update (2):
+1 Indonesian (◠‿◕)
+1 Burmese (◠‿◕)
+1 Pakistani (we cool... didn't flirt with this one but he's nice... (´◡‿ゝ◡`)]
Go Southeast and South Asian boys! Keep those direct messages sliding straight through my inbox.
(≧▽≦)
[Chinese boys... I'm trolling your ass for real but you're gone. (≧▽≦)]
Flirty ass dudes who, by group, hit on some cute chicks on live chat. I see you, bruh. Chinese, Indian, Pakistani, Indonesian... Fuck it HAHAHAHA. Stop treating that app like a dating app.
Exhibit A of my 1 day old **sprinkle** romance **sprinkle** with Indonesian sayangku:
Sayangku: "Catfish, do you have a lover?"
Me: I have one. Myself.
Sayangku: "I don't have one."
Me: Let's find together of your The One. (◠‿◕)
Sayangku: "I just want you."
Me: I want myself more.

Sighs...
Good ol' shit slidin' fast on my dms. Bruh, I've done this gig since college tho...
Out of boredom. Lol.
