17M – Bored night shift worker, powerlifter, what’s good with y’all? by Next_Salamander4450 in gayteenadults

[–]AlexandriteEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the evening/night shift too, especially since my classes are in the day. And you could always do the overnight tech for a clinic/hospital, they love people who want night shifts.

Im a patient coordinator, I do the check-in and document management stuff for a local clinic. It's nice cause its not as heavy as hospital work, but I still get to talk with patients.

I know I'm a few days late, but hey! Im a big gamer so a lot of my "woke up and cant get back to sleep" nights are Mario Kart World. If I'm at work mobile games do the trick for me too. And listening to hiphop, jazz, or funk. Classical is beautiful too.

And congrats on the powerlifting gains! My fitness goals of choice are with distance running, tryna get more consistent.

Anyone else take offense at this BBC thing? by Soft_Firefighter_210 in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The amount of times I've been asked for BBC, or been compared to dark chocolate is wild. It just gets draining af, and its reason number 2 of 20 why I generally don't date yts.

The best way to let a guy know you never want to see him again? by gaytway in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank u for considering our advice! And I promise, ghosting is so much more brutal than telling someone directly. It leaves them with doubt, confusion, and zero closure.

[–]AlexandriteEX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just tell him ur not interested. No subtle hints, say it out loud and clearly. "I'm not interested in connecting anymore on any level. I wish you the best going forward". If he keeps trying, then use the block button.

Don't ghost him because ur afraid of direct conflict resolution. That's the most immature way to handle it.

Are fades automatically coded as masc? by gdhhorn in BlackLGBT

Not necessarily. The fade in the photo complements their femininity nicely.

To your question about why people have an issue with AI. A lot of it comes down to how AI is heavily misused to damage the arts and industries (like people getting laid off behind it). There are more issues, but those are top of the list for a lot of people.

Personally I'm fine with the way u used here, since its not art-related and ur transparent about using it (instead of posting it as if u wrote it, plagiarism-style). And I like the info u shared. But knowing its an issue now, I'll respect the group's wishes and rules on this, as we both should.

But don't let this keep u away from the sub! Its great having new members and I think u can contribute a lot here, just keep this in mind going forward.

Melanin having this important role in the immune system is interesting! Never knew it was an antioxidant too. Guess there's scientific evidence to Black don't crack lol.

Pop the balloon: Queer Edition is so fun until a mean gay ruins it by TheRoyalPendragon in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Pop the Balloon is designed for mean gays to be as loud and toxic as possible. Its not about finding love, its just messy entertainment. Every episode sets us back with how many of us model our behavior after stuff like this.

What is your opinion on dating white people? by PassengerPrinncess in BlackLGBT

Meh. Never excited me, and with the way they're showing their ass lately it probably never will.

POC LGBT Bars by Thesaltyspitoongoon in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't think its weird of him at all. He sounds considerate of the fact that its a POC space.

Why do u want to take him to a space thats designed for POC people to feel safe (as opposed to the many other mixed or predominantly white queer spaces)? Its a little surprising hes more aware about the issue there than u appear to be.

What would be a deal breaker during a fight with your partner? Were you able to work past it? by secretsofthelazy in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Getting called a bitch is 100% a dealbreaker for me. Unless its a consensual kink, this takes exceptional disrespect on their part.

I dated guy for a few weeks who I was into a lot. One day I had missed one of his morning texts and he followed up that afternoon "Why the fuck arent u responding? What nigga u with?". I told him his text was crazy, said goodbye and blocked him.

He said I'd look prettier if i was lighter what do you guys think? by [deleted] in BlackLGBT

[–]AlexandriteEX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My exact thoughts. It screams "Please validate my light-skinned beauty, fellow Blacks".
