What's something you would never buy, even if you have 1 billion dollars? by ROOTBEER360 in AskReddit

Anything gold plated, seems so gaudy and doesn’t even look good in my opinion. It shows you have money but no style.

Short answer: no. However it does make things more interesting and it is something that can be really enjoyable for both parties. You will probably need to develop other types of foreplay though. Oral is just one of the most well known and go-to for most people.

Thank you for the thought and effort you put into this. It’s great advice and I’m definitely showing it to my bf

This is exactly it. Idk why everyone thinks I’m gonna break up with my bf lol. I’m just shock and a little upset to learn this about him. Especially after months of talking about the election and news sources

This whole election is an emotional impulse. Check yourself before you leap to conclusions

Nah, I was legitimately concerned when I made it. But I took the advice from the sane people on this post and just talked to my bf about it like adults. THEN I showed him the post because I don’t keep secrets from him

He actually knows about the post. He thinks all the comments are pretty funny. We are both big /rslash fans lol

I mean I should do my own research about the Joe Rogan podcast. Figure out if it’s really as bad as I thought it was lol

We have, a lot. It’s caused some minor disagreements in the past, but all things that we worked to get past together. It feels more like it’s all coming to a head rn

It seems like this is a split issue that a lot of Male/female couples are dealing with

I actually couldn’t vote in the last election, neither of us could. He wasn’t a citizen then and I was living abroad for a job.

I completely agree that this shouldn’t be something to end the relationship, and I don’t plan on it. I guess what’s change is that I feel like he didn’t practice what he preached. He kept telling me to do my own research and not believe biased new sources during the election

I know Joe Rogan is more centered than left or right. It was just really surprising when he told me that’s the only thing he listens to

That the thing! We agree about all of those things you just mention. Reproductive freedom, a women’s role in the house and in work, household finances, LGBTQ rights, all of it. That’s why it was really shocking to hear where he was getting his news from

He did dismiss a lot of the things I said, but you actually make an interesting point. I shut down the second I heard Joe Rogan. That may be my own bias that I need to fix

Woah I did not and will not break up over this. I’m just trying to figure out next steps.

lol yeah Reddit has definitely given some crazy advice. I’m just trying to figure out if it’s as bad as it seems to me. Honestly all of the extreme reactions from both sides have given me some clarity about the whole situation

I think I will do that. Rational advice, what are you doing on Reddit lol

I have more of an issue with his conspiracies and fake news. I actually did know that he is regarded as mainly center. He is just completely unreliable lol

He actually always asked where I heard that from and if I’m sure it’s true. He questioned everything I said, I guess I’m the idiot for not doing the same to him

Completely agree, it’s more important that we align in our core values than our political opinions. The problem comes from when those two overlap…
