People do that when they don’t have an answer. I can’t remember the last song I’ve saved, for instance.
These people need to learn how to conversation then. Remember: it's not an interrogation or exam, you don't have to exactly answer the question as though you'll be flunked out of a class for the wrong answer. So:
"Oh man, I don't remember. But I really like x by y. What kind of music do you listen to?"
It's not that hard.
What does "saving" a song even mean? I'm old and confused
liking/favoriting/adding to a playlist, etc
That makes sense, ta!
It's just something your average 25 year old does, why do you want to know so bad?
maybe downloading it. I know people who actually download their favorite songs from YouTube.
I still download albums. I go to bandcamp mainly as I'm trying to get the most amount of money possible directly to the artists.
People do that when they don't know the basics of interacting with another human being.
Just say whatever song you like. It's better than acting like a jerk. Even saying "I can't remember, I haven't heard a song in a long time" is better than being a jerk with a person you just met on a DATING APP.
That's a really funny way to phrase 'i'm not much of a music person".
So... don't respond until you check
Or just respond with any song. As someone else said, it's not an exam.
Well, right, I’m not saying I’d do this. If I had to online date, heaven forbid, I’d be my authentic self. I’m so glad I never had to do this stuff. Met my wife on AOL in their chat rooms way back in the day, lol
That was online dating bruv
Nah, we worked together as community leaders back then, which is how we got to know each other.
Online.
I don't do that. Just tell the truth, no need to drag a question out like this, it's incredibly annoying. Just say you can't remember since it's all streaming now.
You gave a perfectly reasonable answer to the question in eight words. No evasion.
I agree, though he's still not a great conversationalist
