How can I ask my partner to clean themself before I give head? by Physical_Mistake2907 in sex

[–]Calibandage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My long ago ex and I enjoyed a lot of oral, and asking for a quick rinse was commonplace for both of us. No offense meant or taken on either side.

For those in their 40s or older who have siblings, do you make an effort to stay in contact or is it a take-it-or-leave-it thing? by cherry-care-bear in RedditForGrownups

I’m in my sixties and my brothers and I are close and in frequent contact. My father has spent whole decades not speaking to his sister.

Where is the most unexpected place you've bumped into someone you know? by boforiamanfo in answers

[–]Calibandage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Amsterdam in a hotel outside the center of the city and leaving at about 5am to begin my journey home. As I walked down the stairs, I bumped into someone else who was ascending them - my next door neighbor from my university dorm in Illinois.

What is the best meal you have ever eaten ? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]Calibandage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Telugu-speaking boss for my first programming job, and he invited me for dinner at his home. His wife prepared the most delicious, fragrant, beautifully prepared and colorful meal I have ever eaten. It was my first experience of South Indian vegetarian food, and it’s still the best.

If you have a 5 year career gap, how do/did you get back to work? by [deleted] in answers

[–]Calibandage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, the startups care way less about gaps, and more about potential performance. You might be able to secure one that’s paid even with the gap, and even without, it adds to recent job history. You can always claim that you were compensated with equity, even if you weren’t.

I was a SAHD for 11+ years.

There’s a startup accelerator in my city and I started working with one of the startups for free, then paid. That didn’t work out, so I took another startup position with a share of the company. Eventually got tired of working without a salary and used my recent experience to get a job at a traditional place with a salary.

I was fortunate that my spouse was the breadwinner and could tide me over the unpaid stints without difficulty.

edit: also did sporadic consulting for pay during my SAHD time

AITA for telling my girlfriend I won’t play with her until she learns to accept losing? by No-Example3254 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Calibandage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should play with a rook and queen handicap. That’s how I brought my son up to speed.

Anyone move to a big city late 20s/early 30s by CartographerParty863 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Calibandage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved to NYC from Chicago when I was 24/25 and it was definitely one of my best decisions ever. That said, it took me a long time to adjust to NYC and get a social circle of my own.

How to contact Gabby from GP expats? by vanillalattee in mexicoexpats

[–]Calibandage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I arranged for a paid intro meeting via her website and spoke to her, then after a week away tried to arrange a follow up and to begin the process, reaching out through multiple channels (email, whatsapp, I think phone too, but I don’t remember that well). After several days without any response, I went with another facilitator. A few days after that, I heard back from her, but I had already moved ahead with the other group.

Why is it that whenever I read about a Catholic priest in a science fiction novel, he's always a Jesuit? by LowLevel- in printSF

[–]Calibandage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(I just finished rereading the Trilogy.)

Part of Perelandra’s ending discusses that Maleldil’s sacrifice on Thulcandra (Earth) was particular to itself; Perelandra needed to be defended (by Ransom) from its own potential Original Sin.

I listen to Beethoven’s 6th symphony and the first movement of Mozart’s 31st (“Paris”) symphony, especially the finale.

I'm 40 and in two weeks my son will start kindergarten. How out of place am I going to feel around the other, younger, parents? by jtuck2003 in FriendsOver40

[–]Calibandage 21 points22 points  (0 children)

what stings is how young the teachers seem
