I have been practising my Swedish lately by replying to messages from people met on Tinder. I don't expect to find anyone I might fall for there, since I suspect anyone who is actually compatible with me will already be part of the SCA up here. But it is a good excuse to type in Swedish anyway. One conversation I have had recently is with a young man with whom I haven't actually matched on Tinder--he saw my profile there and then found me on FB and sent me a friend request there. I know this because I saw the request and wondered why this mundane looking guy with whom I have no friends in common had sent a request, so I asked, and he told me. Even before we had exchanged more than a few very short messages (because Swedish practice) he was telling me that he has feelings for me and wants to meet. I told him that he was welcome to join a Phire practice and try acroyoa with us (of course that topic had already come up), but that I suspected that once he meets me he may well think I am too strange. So he asked me what I mean by "konstigt". This evening I typed up a reply in Swedishthat filled a whole page in a 12pt font )

It will be interesting to see if that scares him away...
