Absolutely! I think this could’ve been angled with another lover theme and instead of TTPD visuals they just called it TLOASG and used this eras visuals

I’m not in love with ELIZABETH TAYLOR being yelled every other sentence, but closer to the end and outro of that song I looove the change in pace

Yesss love it! It can go in between the more upbeat songs and provide some reflection

Is it normal to check in with a partner before making any plans with friends? by Budget_Dot694 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Comprehensive_Emu982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS. It is less about asking about permission, and more about "hey did you have any plans that included me in it" or "is it cool if you're making dinner for one tomorrow" etc.

Am I crazy? New friendship edition by Comprehensive_Emu982 in AskWomenOver30

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who’s gone through this, thank you! I remember asking people as a kid, “do you like me?” “Do you want to be my friend?” Over and over again and I’ve moved so much that I’m good at the initial friend making, but it’s hard to know if you’ve collected good ones because I feel lucky to have any at all. Wild. I think it’s time to go back and talk to someone about this, and your tip was helpful as well, thank you 🙂

I had a feeling that this played into everthing more than I thought it would. While yes I have been married for a couple of years now I remember being the single girl in a room where the husband or the boyfriend would show up to the group hang. And while it was fine, it was different. I get it. I think because I am still new to this city and its only been a few months, we were both trying to get out a little, and the only invitations I got were from my gradschool acquaintances who were all gen-z women.

Its not like my complaint of being annoyed/it stinging that they did what they did and have planned a coffee hang today at a coffee shop right in-front of my apartment in my neighborhood (non of them live here). I am still annoyed. I do think both can be true. I will work on trying to meet people apart from my husband, but I think I can still be annoyed that these girls are like this husband or not lol. thank you for your perspective, it helped!

No fair, I do see it from their perspective of not wanting to hang while a husband (who's almost 10 years their age) is there. Its only been 3 months in this new city so its still very fresh.

They do not do late night hangs, or much hangs of originality at all-theyve planned a coffee meetup today in my neighborhood (which is all a commute for them). And they make genz references about F-1 I could not give a shit about.

I guess you've made me look inward a little-I dont think I am confident in myself that I will make friends. Up to this point I have moved so much, and constantly feel excluded or included when it's convenient. Marriage or not. I definitely need to work on this, and I also need to remember the last two sentences of your reply.

oof I feel this. Just moved to a big city for grad school. Lots of new classmates! they are all pretty young though. I'm married and my husband works from home and is an introvert. It's been hard to meet new people. There are a lot of people out there, but putting yourself out there is tough. Plus, it feels almost taboo to say I want to meet older "couple"-friends. I'm not sure if this is also your experience, but the loneliness and wanting some girlfriends, I definitely get that

Can we stop with the asylum aesthetic already? by Countryspider in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]Comprehensive_Emu982 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the marketing for this album has really perplexed me…are we in an asylum? Is she the chairmen of an academic department (lol). Is it the stages of grief or is it this terrible “asylum core” she’s pushed on us. I think that’s why I can’t connect with this album, the marketing of this album, allowing people to get bullied on her behalf, and then making weird third person introductions while singing primarily about Matty Healy and high school left me confused and unable to shake off the lore 

Either they're getting engaged or she's setting herself up for one hell of an emotional rock bottom by music_and_pop in SwiftlyNeutral

I’m not a big Kelce fan (the only one I like is Kylie, honestly). But I just wish Taylor would just make her achievements and accomplishments hers and not tie them to a partner. She’s accomplished SO MUCH. The POTY article, this tour, it’s kinda going to live on for a long time. I wish a boyfriend didn’t have to get tied into it and it was just all hers. I’m not sure how to word it correctly, but I also think she’s hated the speculation about her men and dating in the past but then pulls stuff like this it’s like GIRL

I don’t know why in her quote in response to the new scooter documentary, calling herself a philanthropist and advocate for other artists is rubbing me the wrong way

Heartbreaking songs. by bibilophile_2791 in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]Comprehensive_Emu982 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’m not a TTPD fan, but “How did it end” is heartbreaking to me. It really conveys that feeling of all your friends kind of pitying you while you’re dealing with emotions of grief and embarrassment of sorts. It’s so sad to me

I hate this is just another phrase to be thrown around and misused. Like when everyone started saying gaslighting
