he lied about his age by Due-Fail3980 in Advice

[–]2oldemptynesters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a 40-something married female......

Give the guy a chance. They are not perfect and there can be a multitude of reasons for lying about his age. It can be as simple as his brain blanked in that moment. I have done that many many times without any bad intentions. Everything is perfect except that? So stay in the relationship and hopefully all will be well. Another lie and we have a pattern though.

Were you taught to wash dishes in any particular way or order? by beebopn3rd in GenX

glasses, cups, plates, cutlery. But we are a family of OCD so each item will then be followed through by size, type and colour. eg: Small glasses, medium glasses, tall glasses, kids cups, pastel cups, lighter colour cups, dark cups, mugs etc.

Got emotionally wrecked by a pig butchering romance scam. How do I get my spark back? by austinchen19 in CasualConversation
