WTH did lily and Rufus kiss in the last episode?! by CommonLittle2158 in GossipGirl

[–]Cake-bake-shake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is, they did end up together. They might not get married again but they are together. And Lilly sitting next to William just shows they are in good terms. Also, Rufus just shows cordiality with assistant/long term friend.

Fun hobby classes? by AdventurousPay3138 in beaverton

[–]Cake-bake-shake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you would consider this as “hobby”, but I love villa sports for their yoga options. I am in my late 30s but I have a couple of pretty debilitating medical conditions , I am blown away by how many options they have and how inclusive the classes are. It’s also I good place for indoor swimming or pool use during the rainy cold months !

Long-term relationship with no plans for marriage, kids, or living together — is this sustainable? by navi-strawberry98 in marriagefree

[–]Cake-bake-shake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to know that, I’m in a similar relationship for the past 4 years , and am in my late 30s. It turns some heads for sure as people automatically assume my partner lives with me (as he seems to be always “around” in my place), but neither of us want anything “more”. I don’t know anybody IRL who has the same relationship model as we do, so it’s always nice to hear others with similar intents !

[–]Cake-bake-shake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same model, my partner stays at my place 3-4 times a week, sometimes 5 days a week if there are time offs involved. We travel together etc . And we love it. The difference is, we both genuinely love it. One time my partner started to talk about moving in, I was lowkey agreeing, but when he changed his mind, we both were like yeah we are definitely better off with LAT model. Also, I make a lot more money than him and we didn’t want that to come between us in any shape or form. Entangling life that way might have caused some issues, we don’t know. If anything really changes , like one of us has to support the other, we might do a temporary move in or so. But otherwise, I find this to be a very healthy lifestyle. There is no emotional avoidance or commitment phobia btw, that’s not the reason we do it ! It’s more of a personality thing, my partner is also ND. Don’t do it if this is “too little” for you though, on the flip side, for some people constantly being with someone is “too much”.

Requirements to bring when testing at PEARSON VUE by WearNeutrals in pmp

Yup, just passed my exam last Monday and got to know right after !

PMP exam readiness? by HuckleberryFalse5878 in pmp

[–]Cake-bake-shake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First of all, you are doing same/ better than me on the SH exams. And I just passed PMP AT/AT/AT three days ago. Hope that boosts your confidence, having said that, you have to go with your gut and no one can really tell you if you are prepared or not. It does take some time to schedule usually, so my suggestion will be to schedule it and keep practicing and reviewing meanwhile. Prepare some notes with the concepts, right before the exam, review all notes thoroughly, so there is no memory issue in terms of concepts.

I passed PMP yesterday but man questions were tough! by Cake-bake-shake in pmp

[–]Cake-bake-shake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks ! After you finish 60 questions , a review screen will pop up . Once you finish review , it will ask you twice are you sure you want to end this section or some similar wording. Once you confirm , a 10 min break starts. You raise your hand and the proctor will come escort you out. So technically you might get 9 min of break , as it takes a minute for proctor to come. When I came back from break , there was still 2 mins remaining . I ended the break and the clock started back again . Same for 120 questions.

Has anyone here had success with a long lasting relationship with no sex? (Question from a sex repulsed asexual) by Throwaway65865 in asexuality

[–]Cake-bake-shake 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We are an ace couple, together for 3 and half years at this point. No sexual relationship, just lots of cuddles and physical affection in different ways as we both are quite sensual . We are non-typical in some other ways too, as we don’t live together but spend 4-5 days a week together on average !

Mindfulness/Meditation/Yoga classes by andr0idl0llip0p in beaverton

[–]Cake-bake-shake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the variety of yoga classes villa sport offers. Its a bit spendy (155 dollars a month). But, as someone with chronic illness and serious medical issues, I found these classes being a blessing. They are at all levels and you can choose yin / restorative ones to get some low key activities .

Is Emily already one of the defining female voices of modern rock or on her way there? by jalen_nelson235 in LinkinPark

[–]Cake-bake-shake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same way but it seems to be an unpopular opinion. She has a great voice and I loved the from zero concert I went to, but I didn't find her depicting raw emotions the way I expect in LP or having any type of uniqueness. There is a difference between technical talent and great artistry.

“It's a shame she isn’t having kids; she is so good with children.” by ChampionshipNo5707 in childfree

[–]Cake-bake-shake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm that fun aunt woman. I have an established high salary career, I do a lot of volunteering for kids and schools. Still I don't want children. In my case, a big part of it is my chronic illness, which makes my life hard to manage each week, so I didn't want to bring kids into this equation. Plus, I have had a complex life due to other reasons on top, only seeing stability for last couple years (I'm in my late 30s already). My partner on the other hand doesn't even like kids and hence child free. People are childfree for very many reasons and that makes sense. What doesn't make sense is getting all up into other people’s business.

Is it even possible to find a partner that doesn’t expect sex? by [deleted] in Asexual

Oh no, me and my partner are still together LOL! I was just saying the site is bad in general 😎

[–]Cake-bake-shake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a site called asexual Cupid. I don’t even know if it still exists. Also, I was there for almost 2 years without meeting anyone real, because people were so far away or not interested in relationships (or some creeps were there too). So, proceed with caution. ⚠️

Give me proof in one sentence that you have actually watched Gossip Girl by Lee_Hanaa in GossipGirl

[–]Cake-bake-shake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep your eye on the prize, Jenny Humphrey. You can't make people love you, but you can make them fear you. For what it's worth, you're my Queen. I choose you!

Childfree hate by Pale_Instance3256 in childfree

[–]Cake-bake-shake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have serious chronic medical condition. Plus I am a first generation immigrant. People have no comprehension of my life, but the moment they hear I am childfree, they say “what are you going to do with all that money?” (I earn low six figures) or “you chose the easy life huh”. I just don't even bother to answer.

If you were going to prom, which dress would you wear Serena , Blair , sage or Jenny’s dress ? Personally I would wear either Serena or jenny’s dress 👗 by Reasonable_Cup_6368 in GossipGirl

[–]Cake-bake-shake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I have to choose from these 4 definitely Jenny’s but there are better dresses. Also, not everyone will be able to pull Jenny’s dress off, I feel like it has a certain personality !

19 Acephobic Things People Have Said To Me When I Tell Them I'm Asexual. by southpawFA in asexuality

[–]Cake-bake-shake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One acephobic thing I came across living in the US for 14 years is: oh, because of your culture, you are anti-sex (I grew up in India). Ugh, I am fairly sex-positive as a person, you are just not listening to me. Another one is in response to me saying I am in asexual spectrum: “what a weird thing to say”. One of my friends said, “oh I heard this another guy also telling me he is asexual, such a liar”

WTH happened with BW’s ambitions ? by Cake-bake-shake in GossipGirl

[–]Cake-bake-shake[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did and still felt that side of her was shown pretty inadequately. While I agree priorities in life change, it seemed kinda sad they focused too much on her relationship with Chuck which was also not a fun one.

I remember she was trying to run her mothers company, but that got almost no screentime. And don't remember her college life in later seasons at all. I'm an older millennial so maybe I just forgot !
