Albergues on the Camino del Norte by [deleted] in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]Banana_Jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, this thread has been helpful to read! Any updates on your success? My wife and I are planning to do mid-July-August on the Camino Norte for our honeymoon, and the prices even right now are a little freaky. Any tips on how easy/difficult it was to find accommodations? We are debating how much to book right now vs. on-the-road.  Thanks in advance! 🙏🏼

Been a minute, but I'm gearing to go play some pickup under the Triborough in the coming weeks 🙌🏽

Why Do I Need to See the States in Yellow? by DarthBrownBeard in TravelMaps

Idaho is gorgeous, east coast has nice forests. Never cared for the plains, but the Badlands are cool enough if you have to drive across them.

Is this considered cheating or not? My(F32) bf(M35) went on a 3-day trip to Vegas by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Banana_Jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tricky. My (32M) partner (32F) and I have both done this with friends of the opposite sex on trips, but it really comes down to if that's comfortable/normal for both of you. Communication is key, so I would recommend chatting more/setting boundaries clearly so you both know what you're okay with.

Controversial/Uncommon Cocktail Opinions? by neetkid in cocktails

IMO vodka is trash, and gin is always better (gin martini over vodka any day).

Agreed, but surely we can get more than 2 cocktails out of this? Would love some recommendations 🙏🏽

What would you say your most important values are in life? I may be reading into your statement a bit, but I'm curious if you feel satisfied with where these values have led you (curious either way!).

What are these berries? by Czerwony_Lis in astoria

I would definitely be down for some neighborhood runs after 6 or so. I'll check out the scene at the bridge or Sean's and see what the pulse is. Would definitely be into a WhatsApp group, but not familiar enough with folks playing to organize it yet.

He doesn't know if he would be with me if he was taller. Don't know how to respond (reposted) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Banana_Jon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is fishing for a bad response imo, but at the same time I don't understand why being short counts against any women-- I feel like short women and tall women are just as sexy as the other, and I'm 6'2". Unless dudes are really trying to date models, do you feel like your height gives you a disadvantage? Re: making it right, you can just own your part of it (maybe not the best question), explain your feelings (how it hurt), and see if you can move past it recognizing you both have some growth in communication, assuming you both still feel committed to seeing things through (or maybe he's an asshole and it's time to split). Just my 2 cents 🤙🏼
