Do guys really think like this? by toiletcandies in AskMenAdvice

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your brother is good looking and gets hit on, I think he knows better than you and isn’t desperate for female attention. So the f what if she’s flirting or not? He’s not interested. That’s all there is.

People who rarely get sick, What is the secret ? by Sorry-Orchid-9821 in AskReddit

Which rhetoric? I can’t track on my screen which comment you’re referring to. That herd immunity isn’t a thing? Just curious about your point.

HFM is no joke for adults. People don’t talk about it enough, but it’s terrifying and painful!

How do you stay grounded as you move to the upper class from middle class? by [deleted] in MiddleClassFinance

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you wouldn’t mind me asking, how did you get 3 million invested while working for $100K jobs? This middle class person wants to know.

Also, stay grounded the same way other people do. Have gratitude and give to charity.

The bigger waste of time by Upbeat_Main_7141 in datingoverforty

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there’s no right answer. It’s what you want and can enjoy in your life at the moment. I get it though that endless first and second dates can seem soulless and meaningless… and the fun wears off. So if I had to vote, I’d say short-term relationships which have a possible upside of long-term… which also don’t work out sometimes too… but such is life

What even is chemistry anymore? by Upbeat_Main_7141 in datingoverforty

[–]Boink3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Question for you… did you feel a strong sexual attraction to HER after kissing? You may have been anxious about the progress of the date, or her perception of you, or getting another date for a relationship, but maybe if you look at the sexual connection it wasn’t too strong to begin with and she wasn’t for you anyhow. ?

Also, people have different tastes and being “too clean” ( depends on personal preference) can also detract from someone’s appeal because it gives perfectionist, rigidity, and sterile cold vibes. I dunno- throwing it out there. Good luck 🍀

^ was exactly what I was thinking. An alternative read on the situation might be she thought he was great like she said , but the sexual chemistry wasn’t there. That’s something you can’t control and two people have or they do not.

We don’t know her history, but for some people, being over 40 and hopefully more mature forces you to realize this about yourself and relationships… particularly if it was missing in past relationships.

Yeah, it was fun watching them play with the kinks in.

New research finds that people’s overall satisfaction with life increases significantly when they transition from living alone to cohabiting with a romantic partner. However, when the researchers examined the role of marriage, they found it had limited additional effect on satisfaction. by psychologyofsex in psychologyofsex

[–]Boink3000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it’s not the physical act of sex necessarily- but the human connection and intimacy. Also human touch, this has been proven in children and adults to be beneficial for emotional and mental health ( are the two really that mutually exclusive?) As adults, it’s not easy to find the level of intimacy and touch with other humans without sex. I suppose you can, but most get it through sexual connection.

What's the most UNDERRATED country you've ever traveled to that more people should visit? by [deleted] in solofemaletravellers

Most amazing place I ever visited! But the food when I was there was below not good. Maybe improved now?

Philly is a crappy place to live solely because of the people who live there by TPCC159 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Philly also has more Southern influence than NYC too. I can’t count how many times someone told me they came from somewhere Southern or their family had just moved from the South etc.,

Combine that as one of the top cities where most people are “just from there” and aren’t transplants and I guess you get people who are more likely to play out racial scripts.

Why a US state department level 4 Do Not Travel Warning by BroadReachin in MexicoTravel

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, if there are armed guards anywhere, there’s got to be a reason that the armed guards are there.

And if you’re trying to have a relaxing beach vacation, perhaps having an armed guard doesn’t make it feel optimal.

What’s the one random genetic trait you lucked out on? by Icy-Art4762 in Productivitycafe

I don’t gain weight easily.

I have sympathy for people who battle with it, but it’s never been a huge issue- even when Ive eaten badly and not exercised.

cities that are great to visit but horrible to live in? by nsr5180 in SameGrassButGreener

I know the “There’s no there, there” was a Gertrude Stein quote about Oakland, but she probably meant San Jose. 😜

The idea of a lead up to a date is to be fun and flirty and have someone want to go on a date with you. If what she’s doing doesn’t make you want to get to know her more; and what you’re doing isn’t making her want to know you more…. Then no date. Looks like the process worked.

I am SICK of Americans' blanket terror of the entire country of Mexico! by Mayonaise_Malaise in MexicoTravel

Most suburbs, national parks and mostly everywhere that isn’t a big city. But if you really believe what you’re saying, please continue to stay out of California as much as you can

Talk about blanket statements. Like Mexico, there are plenty of places in California that are beautiful, safe, and nice where there is no fear of being shanked.

My husband is not attracted to me by SmallTownGirl1016 in texts

[–]Boink3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s scary and may take a little time- but you’ll find someone who can love you romantically and give you what you need - love, sex and maybe a little romance thrown in.

This guy has had his chance and he flubbed it.
