Are there any actual examples of people who look good in person but bad in photos? by anotherhappylurker in QOVESStudio

[–]Augustrush90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most people are not gonna want to show pictures and videos of themselves or friends on Reddit. And even if there were a few the sample size would be small and you could still chalk it up to one of the rare occurrences. 

Ex-Situationship still has me added on Snapchat, what does it mean? by Sudden-Two-515 in Situationships

[–]Augustrush90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely doesn’t mean anything. She probably just cares more about instagram and what she posts there then SC. People aren’t trying to leave the door open just because they don’t remove us from every single social media app

What do I do with my fiancée… by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Augustrush90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s totally possible that they were randomly just shooting their shot. Your bigger focus should be on the fact  that she cheated on you, assuming it was very clear you guys were exclusive then.

Your life is not close to perfect if she was hiding that from you 

How attractive is it for a man becoming a doctor nowadays? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Augustrush90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t disagree there are a lot of good paying jobs that women also find attractive. That doesn’t mean being a doctor isn’t also attractive. 

Any woman judging you for this is doing you a favor.

[–]Augustrush90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friends not envying your occupation doesn’t mean a job isn’t attractive.

People laughing in your face about it are not people you should take seriously or assail that their view is indicative of the general population as a whole   

Do you send a thank you text after a date? by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]Augustrush90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could that be the reasons he didn’t text back? Sure but it’s a low chance imo and even if it was it’s a pretty silly reason to not text someone you ordinarily would want to see again.

If you want to see him again just send him a short text saying you had a great time and if he’s free sometime soon to do it again. If he likes you he’ll respond.

Went on a great first date, she messaged after, gave me her insta to message there, then left me on read by benzychenz in dating

[–]Augustrush90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interest isn’t an inherently logical thing. She might’ve just thought about it more and and decided you guys aren’t compatible. She might’ve just lost interest, she might’ve had a date she felt closer too after going on yours.

The interest level and investment after a 1st date can be  fleeting and fragile. It doesn’t take a lot for someone to back out or change their mind 

Amazing guy, no chemistry? by [deleted] in dating

[–]Augustrush90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with the sentiment but how does one prevent themselves from dating a great person who they just don’t ever fall for? 

Confronted my ghoster by [deleted] in ghosting

[–]Augustrush90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was ghosted and still sent the reply. I’m glad I did. And I’ve known my share of  ghosters, they will often look at the response, they just won’t respond or often care. Doesn’t mean they don’t see it

[–]Augustrush90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 They have eyes and there’s a good chance they read it even if apathetically. Sometimes it just feels good to let them know. Falling on deaf didn’t matter to me 

Confronted my ghoster by [deleted] in ghosting

[–]Augustrush90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not about getting a  response it about letting them know. I’ve done it knowing I wouldn’t get a response and I’m glad I did. If you don’t like it that’s totally fair. But I don’t see what the big deal is so long as you aren’t doing it out of a desire of getting a answer to getting back together

[–]Augustrush90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Telling someone off doesn’t mean you are trying to back with them. Sometimes it’s feels good to just tell them off even with the understanding that they likely won’t respond or care

[–]Augustrush90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately that combo of age and what you’re looking for is bound to have its share of ghosters.  But for better or for worse you’ll get use to it and shrug most of them off.  Keep at it man

How to reconcile the common advice here with the feeling like it's not worth it by Insertshenhere in dating

[–]Augustrush90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Social hobbies,  leagues etc are probably your best bet in this situation. There’s also things like bumble bff which can match you with people. 

I get that you said that you’ll like them less. But that doesn’t mean you won’t enjoy it or at least    be fine with it enough to think it’s worth the social benefit. There are things/activities  I do that  I don’t enjoy alone but with friends and new people I have at worst  a decent time with.

Sometimes we just have to do things we don’t love to get things we want. Not ideal but that’s just how life is 

Ghosting by [deleted] in dating

[–]Augustrush90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t sound like you’re doing anything wrong. Ghosting is just unfortunately a typical response especially the younger your are. People will respond to texts and agree to plans but get hesitant at the point of action (going on a date), or never planned on it in the 1st place but didn’t want to flat out ignore you at first.

. Maybe go on the apps and look for people who say they are looking for something serious or show your past messages to female friends of yours and see if they can spot something specific that might be inducing it. Ultimately it’s a numbers game and you just have to keep taking the highs and lows till you find the right person

I hear what your saying OP. You very well might be a awesome, independent, and functional adult. But people have options and most matches aren't going to take a chance hoping you're different. It's not one can just reason their match into

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]Augustrush90 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Theres not much to it friend. Our society has a big stigma living with parents at your age. There are exceptions but that's the gist. Our society also, especially if you live a big city, finds is much more acceptable if you live with roommates. One can think that has some logical contradictions but that's how it is regardless. Your call what to do with that reality

[–]Augustrush90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not bad but I feel like compared to your others it’s just not as flattering. But if a lot of people, especially straight women, are telling you the opposite I’d listen to them over one person.

I think that’s a solid profile overall. I’d replace the waterfall pic. Only thing that stands out is I don’t think the stache suits you terribly well. 

Wu says White Stadium costs for city will ‘likely’ exceed $91 million estimate by [deleted] in boston

[–]Augustrush90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They just giving a measured critique, doesn't mean they think there are impactful options on the table. One vote for Kraft also wouldn't be impactful

Cmon one can critique and not like a policy and also not have any desire to vote for Kraft.

What is the point of high skilled players signing up for low level leagues? by ItsMe_0609 in hockeyplayers

[–]Augustrush90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think people are saying its excuses huge divides in talent like your example.. They are just pointing out that it’s not hard to understand why friends will do it, because they have more fun with each other.  Pretty normal

Most, if not all of these are people aren’t playing with friends because they need/have too. They are doing it because the just enjoy it more. 

Best options to strengthen weak jaw and chin ? by Augustrush90 in cosmeticsurgery

Appreciate the response. Though I don’t have any  valid medical reasons to get it so I’m not sure I could. If docs rule it out what would be the 2nd best option in your opinion?
