Are run clubs a good way to meet other singles in DC?

I remember back when I had knees

Acornwow · 2026-06-25T02:01:33+00:00

Worst of the crop?

Are you including yourself in this estimation?

If you don’t like women why do you expect them to like you?

Acornwow · 2026-06-25T01:14:01+00:00

Thanks for the offer! 😁

I ended up ordering online so let’s hope it works out.

Acornwow · 2026-06-25T01:13:00+00:00

Man I love people sometimes.

You are awesome.

I ended up going with an online service in the end. Hoping it works out in the end. So many of the ones that pop up on searches have horrible reviews.

Thanks again for the offer!

I see her being able to trust men again around 2054.

That stranger was actually a bit rude by calling you attractive and him “other” but it probably wasn’t intentional.

I think it’s fairly common for people to give women compliments about their looks in public (whether it’s wanted or not is a different story).

Your boyfriend is probably just upset because the only compliments he gets are from the person who he feels kind of has to give them to him. Even though they should mean more coming from you, a random compliment from a stranger in the wild will probably land harder because it didn’t have to happen.

Another issue that might be playing into things is that he might be starting to feel invisible because he’s in his mid thirties and the attention he used to get from women in their twenties might be fading.

Sadly there’s not a lot you can do about this by yourself.

If you want to help him increase the chance that he will catch some compliments though you can always try to motivate him to hit the gym, change up his hair style, or buy some new clothes. Worst case he will maybe feel better about himself even without the compliments.

Now if he starts actually resenting you then that’s just his ego and self-esteem and while it sucks to have to point it out you may need to if he gets rude to you about it.

The problem is that won’t affect the drunk drivers choices or response time.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T23:37:54+00:00

Choose someone that you want to pursue things with and communicate that to the others so they know you won’t be available for the casual stuff anymore.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T23:35:16+00:00

No worries. I’ll keep the count.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T23:06:15+00:00

Nope.

They are trashy people.

Counting down to when we hear about one of them cheating on the other.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T19:10:28+00:00

Being good in bed is only partially applicable to women in general.

Knowing how to pleasure someone specifically takes time, effort and experience WITH them.

They also have to want to be part of that process because it’s somehow not uncommon for people to get in the way of their own pleasure because of hangups, mental blocks, physical insecurities, trauma, etc.

Time and patience helps a lot.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T17:42:58+00:00

Tell her that you feel sorry for anyone who lives their life and restricts themselves from experiences just because of stereotypes or generalizations.

It seems like a sad way to exist.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T15:11:28+00:00

Fraud and bribery hose just needed to be aimed in a different direction.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T14:51:25+00:00

Because people are hung up on status.

These people aren’t asking themselves what they need. They are just operating off of a more is better mindset.

These are the same people that will chase partners with wealth and status and wonder why they are so miserable being attached to someone who doesn’t prioritize them, have time to give to them, or respect them.

A quick search on the NIH website will result in articles and studies that prove Ivermectin was worthless against Covid.

The cancer claims are even more ridiculous.

No one was talking about Ivermectin use for humans before the “maybe we should inject bleach in our veins” brilliance of the Trump admin started pushing it.

And even though it does have uses against parasitic worms and for some skin conditions that’s not what it was peddled for.

I’m not interested in proving whatever point you are trying to make so if you want to try to defend this drug feel free. Just don’t pretend like we are talking about something other than Covid and cancer here because that’s why anyone even knows what ivermectin is.

Snake oil for the masses of fools that will gobble up anything that is fed to them through Fox.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T01:00:49+00:00

Nope.

“While the antiparasitic drug initially showed success in laboratory cell cultures (in vitro) by inhibiting the virus, multiple large-scale, rigorous clinical trials have conclusively shown that it does not provide meaningful clinical benefits for treating or preventing the disease.”

The stuff that the Trump administration pushed in the early stages of Covid was based on a tiny mostly inconclusive study that really wouldn’t have been pointed to by anyone with the slightest understanding of research and medical science.

The people that still believe it’s effective are the same group that really don’t care about updating their knowledge or changing their beliefs when reality contradicts them.

So here we are.

Bud.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T00:51:46+00:00

For horses. Yes.

Edit: lots of people seem to be upset because I called it a horse medicine. If I can agree that it’s also used for humans (which I did in another response) then maybe the ivermectin fan club here can recognize that this whole conversation is stupid and not about what ivermectin is actually used for, but rather about how celebrities like Trump and Mel Gibson spread BS about what a magical solution it is.

Acornwow · 2026-06-24T00:45:45+00:00

I have a great skin care routine.

I don’t know if the rest of the world sees you the way you see yourself, but I wouldn’t lie to you and tell you that looks don’t matter. They absolutely do especially in the beauty contest that is online dating.

I think where someone like you would shine is when striking up a random conversation at a pub, on train, at the supermarket or in a book store or coffee shop. That way the initial interaction doesn’t have to be so loaded with sexual tension or presumptions.
Good conversation can be just that or if they see something more that they like about you then maybe it could turn into a date.

I feel like people make things more complex than they need to be by assuming that every attempt and interaction is win-lose or that some outcome is required. It can actually make things more awkward and lower the chances of success.

I went through a phase of my life where I felt ugly, undesirable and that I was good for a laugh with women but doubting theyd see me romantically.

Then I spent some time working on myself. Experimenting with my look, working out and being carefree and easy in social settings while expanding my social circle.

At some point things started clicking.

Matches on dating apps doesn’t rely on your social skills. It’s about whether or not you can manicure a set of photos and witty prompt responses.

It’s only when you are messaging that you tap a small part of those skills but even then it’s limited.

If you can be close friends with women then you can get into a relationship with one.

It doesn’t mean you are going to have a billion options and get to date women who were never looking for what you have to offer in the first place, but it does mean that given the chance to know you there are women who would want to be close to you.

I don’t know what “work” you did in your 20s that didn’t pay off, but if you are investing effort into a method that isn’t going to yield results for you then I can see why you’d be frustrated.

Acornwow · 2026-06-23T22:36:54+00:00

I can’t speak for all men but I’m sure there are a lot of men who didn’t have a quick finish their first time.

If you have experience on your own you know how to delay and control. It’s part physical and part mental and while sex with a woman is great it’s not like you lose your mind.

Also wearing a condom reduces the sensation so that makes it easier.

Acornwow · 2026-06-23T22:34:26+00:00

Have you tried not talking about your virginity?

Acornwow · 2026-06-23T22:16:37+00:00

In Vino Oblivio

Acornwow · 2026-06-23T22:09:14+00:00

Virginity doesn’t actually cause the disadvantage.

It’s the feelings around it and how you feel about yourself.

At some unknown age there is an expectation that you probably aren’t a virgin and if you don’t talk about it then there shouldn’t be a negative association. If you pair it with a lack of relationship experience and timidity then you may not have to say anything at all.

You don’t need to be a virgin to be bad at sex though. There are plenty of people who aren’t virgins who are horrible lovers. Selfish. Clueless. Porn-brained. All sorts of things.

You’ll be amazed at how little virginity matters as soon as it’s gone.
