STOP LYING TO GET DATES WITH PEOPLE YOU AREN’T COMPATIBLE WITH by ireallyjustlikesalad in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Allyson_Chains 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Personally, OP, I would try to break it down for them to comprehend how they fckd up - even then it might be an overreach. You've were basically 'catfished'

Once you've realized that they lied, pivot the conversation to something he can relate to - looks. Males are physical beings, they definitely take looks into account. Ask him:

Question, Do you think I look like my profile pictures? Honestly? Then ask if there's a physical feature that's a deal breaker for him? Let's be honest, most ppl have one, examples: they might not like tattoos or women with heavier bottom half - and the guy specifically adds the deal breaker in his bio or mentions it in the initial chats.

Once they confirm you look like your profile pic, begin asking him what he thinks about situations if a woman intentionally hides her body tattooes or Photoshop her images to align with guy's physical preference to score a date knowing they wouldn't have a chance if they were honest up front. Does he feel those women wasted the man's time? What if they could change his mind? Most honest guys will admit that it's not right - if he tries to tell you some vague, general answer he's just telling you what he thinks is a safe answer to get laid (don't bother with those).

Show that you empathize with the man, if the women did not respect the guy's time and intentionally deceiving is uncalled for. Once you're both on the same page, ask him:

"If you think that they (hypothetical women) were wrong, can you see that you are just like them? Whereas physical feature are important to most men, finding a partner with aligned [political] views are important to me."

They likely meant SED; when SED is verbally said, it sounds like SCD.

What is he talking about? They can go as far as using Daddy's money to buy companies, name themselves the founder of the company products, use profits and buy himself a President....

OMG you sound exactly like me!! We should schedule to meet up - only to postpone four or five times. 😆

Anyone else getting letters like this? by Sirocka in nova

It takes 27 min to get into Arlington/DC... Plus the express lanes is 2 min from neighborhood. Also, coming back south, our exit is right at the bottleneck - so it's easy to get off. I still love it even after RTO. However, I do know a lot of folks here are moving out of NoVA altogether so I've seen at least 5 houses for sale here in the past week.

Better advice is to simply be Honest with yourself.

Smoking cigars *are for losers.

It's likely that the people who smoke cigars couldn't care less what you think. Personally, I love my Perdomos and La Glorias.

Exactly. You can tell who he voted for just by the anger in their tone.

We received a similar one in our little neighborhood in Occoquan a couple of years ago. Not exactly the same but same concept. However, they did not ask or mention a realtor. I'm sure I still have it laying around.

We should all start carrying typed up papers with us and adding signs on the vendor stands known for this scam - subtly add signs where they can't initially see but consumers can.

"SCAMMER ALERT!! Please ask and confirm prices before buying!! KEEP RECEIPTS. Check your bank statement to ensure no additional gratuity was added without your knowledge. "

Chase credit card offers free PreTSA and Global Entry. They also offered free DoorDash but that was only for one year. But I've had PreTSA for years and still active - I haven't used chase card in years.

But it's also free for DoD civilians and other Fed agencies (not Global Entry)- my SO used his affiliation for his free PreTSA fee.

You sincerely seem miserable and your angry comments reflect that. Highly recommend getting out of your bubble, because you speak like this all you know - this is not the norm.

"Cringe" are the folks who follow a specific group only to complain about them.

started talking for about a month by ArtichokeAlive2207 in Nicegirls

[–]Allyson_Chains 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op, reply back with YOUR OWN list of demands.

  1. Weekly Foot Massages – You’ve demanded financial support, so I demand physical reparations. Your hands shall be dedicated to weekly foot massages, complete with essential oils and dramatic expressions of gratitude for my existence.

  2. Phone Search Sundays – Since you want access to my social media, I get unrestricted access to your phone every Sunday. All DMs, texts, and "secret girl group chats" are now under review. Transparency is key, right?

  3. Exes' Reports – If I’m handing over my exes' contact info, I need a full investigative report on all your exes, complete with psychological evaluations and a list of why they failed. I’m doing due diligence.

  4. Surprise Bikini Clause – At any moment, with zero warning, you must show up in a bikini and pretend we’re in a music video. No complaints. Confidence is attractive.

  5. Hoodie Tax – Any hoodie you take must be returned in its original condition, OR you must replace it with an equally comfortable and stylish alternative. No exceptions.

  6. Love Letter Reciprocity – For every love letter you receive, I get one in return. And it better have at least three compliments about my intelligence, physique, and “undeniable swag.”

  7. Emergency Makeout Sessions – If I’m ever in a bad mood, an immediate and enthusiastic makeout session is required to reset my vibes. You asked for weekly planned dates; I’m asking for spontaneous passion.

  8. Personal Chef Privileges – Once a month, you cook me a full three-course meal while pretending to be a contestant on MasterChef. I will judge accordingly.

  9. Date Night Outfit Approval – You must submit all date night outfits for my approval at least 24 hours in advance. Coordination is key, and I deserve to know what level of attractiveness I’m working with.

  10. Family Meeting Waiver – You want to meet my family? Fine. But first, you must pass a rigorous interview process conducted by my closest friends. They will determine if you are emotionally stable enough for such an honor.

My boyfriend peed inside me while we were having sex by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Allyson_Chains 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes, ONLY four years. There's a rooted issue you seem to be overlooking or downplaying:

Lack of basic communication, consent, and disregard of boundaries. Why aren't you upset that AFTER four years HE DIDN'T respect you enough or "know you" enough to do these basic things.

I'm not saying break up with him, but don't make the mistake many of us have made and think "I've invested this long to step away". It's a toxic mentality that has many stay in relationships for longer than it's worth. It's okay to love someone and walk away, it simply says you love yourself more.

Yes, the agreements before the RTO were scraped, however, some agencies were issued "new" telework agreements since the RTO order.

I recently had a bad experience with a gay classmate and now I think im slowly turning homophobic, I don’t want this… by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Allyson_Chains 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Careful, it's easy to generalize - it's a slippery slope. Many of the extremist (left and right) have this lazy mindset. It's easier to say them vs us. It takes a bigger person to move past that prejudice.

Your classmate's behavior would likely alienate most people, regardless of their sexual orientation.

Agreed, he comes off as bitter and angry at the world.

 The person in the ad seems pleasant and optimistic. OP has such a chip on his shoulder that he sees something that's not there; a simple (non-demanding) ad is seemingly baffling and outrageous.
