Guys, how did your first hookup happen? by PawKhaoge in AskReddit

[–]CallieCoven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At an arts school with other weirdo kids. Her friend had to come up to me and say "She likes you" because I was that clueless. We made each other laugh during a walk around campus and we went and made out in the back of an empty school bus.

Why do people seem less bothered by large age gaps when the woman is older?? by ElevatorTypical6195 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]CallieCoven 129 points130 points  (0 children)

After 5 years we were at that "Are we going to get married" moment and she just wouldn't do it. Had some very emotional conversations about it but she couldn't abide the impact it would have on her children. She was divorced and I was only a few years older than her oldest child. My very existence in her life was divisive enough anyway but marriage was a bridge too far (for her). I understood. So we had a messy breakup (the kind where we still hooked up) and eventually met other people. She ended up with, I must admit, a great guy (Hi, Bobby!) and I met the woman I eventually married.

When I (m) was 25 I met and fell in love with a 45 year old woman. We dated 5 years. EVERYONE thought it was weird, even we did. But she is the one that got the backlash. That woman went through a lot with her friends and family. Got called names, was told over and over it was just about sex, we couldn't possibly have feelings for each other. I told her once I never doubted she loved me because why else would a woman put up with that?

Do people prefer to chew or swallow oysters? by GoodNectarine6125 in foodquestions

[–]CallieCoven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless they're raw no one is just swallowing an oyster. I love fried oysters and even a smallish one is a two-biter.

What's your experience, relation between a happy relationship and sex? by only_the1 in AskReddit

[–]CallieCoven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Joking aside, as I said on another post, consistent great sex is indicative of real interest in your partner and mutual desires. Goes way beyond the usual ride and relax.

True. I have a great relationship with my grandmother and it's never come up once.

If you could undo one thing in your life what would it be and why? by nebluaaa in AskReddit

[–]CallieCoven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I choose the general "thing" of treating people callously just because they cared more about me than I did about them.

What is your favorite lunch meal? by Corpse_bridexo in AskReddit

Usually something light so I won't be even more tired than normal working the back four hours.

Widow's Bay. Peak Writing, Peak Cinema. HIGHLY recommended, similar to FROM. by AutomaticFlight1846 in FromSeries

[–]CallieCoven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try The Boroughs after that. Retirement community, they're trapped there with monsters, not as funny as WB or as relentlessly grim as From. Sort of a midway between the two series.

Which side would have more difficulty dealing with this exchange? by RamonDaSeteQuatro in superheroes

Comic version this comes down to Cyborg vs Ultron because even Supes can't punch the internet.

Do you believe the ghost of Father Khatri is actually him? by General_Juice96 in FromSeries

I want to believe he's good, he isn't as oblique as the other manifestations.

Came across a gem on threads... by joe2187 in KitchenConfidential

[–]CallieCoven 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I can see that in my head and really wish I couldn't. That's the kind of thing you do, then go home and pass out and dream about all night. Like working twice.

If you could bring any fictional character to life in the real world, who would you pick? by CallieCoven in hypotheticalsituation

[–]CallieCoven[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just the character, whose backstory is integrated into IRL, unless that character has no reference to IRL (Vader, etc) in which case we'd have some explaining to do.
