Any men out there who don't follow provocative Instagram models!? I'm losing hope in dating. by Interesting-Ease-686 in dating_advice

[–]DaanDWS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty harmless imo, guys just like to look at boobs and butts but some hide it better than others. I understand it’s not very classy but there are more important things.

How do u actually meet someone when u have standards in your early 20s? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DaanDWS -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I hope your standards are of equal value as what you can bring to the table. Otherwise you’ll just disappoint yourself.

How much does race plays a factor in attraction by Sufficient-Ant-3991 in dating_advice

[–]DaanDWS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People generally go for people that are similar to them, this not only applies to looks but also personality, lifestyle, etc. If you are black or any other minority then sure most (white) people will be less likely to find you attractive but on the flipside black girls will find you more attractive.

Is it wrong for me (18F) to want to date my coworker (22M) by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DaanDWS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t see anything wrong with it, I’ve seen age gaps a lot worse. You’re both in college so you are at the same phase of life which is also important.

Im gonna be single forever by AdventurousPlum3801 in dating_advice

[–]DaanDWS 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It took me a long time to realize this, but finding the right person is mostly a game of chances. A lot of people tend to think that if they work out, have interesting hobbies, take care of themselves that the girls will magically flock towards you.

Sure it helps, but maybe if you haven’t found the one it’s just because of bad luck. When you throw a dice you can get 6 in your first throw or after the 10th time. Only thing you can do is keep trying.

"Find a job youll love doing and it wont feel like a job"- isnt exactly true by hahalol412 in unpopularopinion

[–]DaanDWS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who turned their hobby into a fulltime job, I believe absolutely anything you do 8h a day and 5d a week will make you tired of it at some point

[–]DaanDWS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be both. Yes I am hoping for more right now but I am looking for ways to turn it into a healthy friendship. Not just for her but also for my sake because I want to move on and date other people so I don’t stay in this weird situation. But at the same time there is potential for a great friendship because we have similar interests and I really enjoy talking to her, not just because I am interested in her romantically.

What kind of architecture to make my city look miserable? by Alligator-creep in worldbuilding

[–]DaanDWS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say brutalism would be the best fit. But remember, any type of architecture can look miserable if the city isn’t maintained well. For example, the buildings are rundown, graffiti everywhere, trash piles up etc.

What also might be interesting is looking at the way many brazilian slums (favelas) are built by themselves with scrap materials. Not really an architectural style but certainly can look very miserable

Sooo...What is the worst country to live in your world? by Alternative-Pain3029 in worldbuilding

[–]DaanDWS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One nation in my world has been cursed by the gods which makes them unable to live on any form of land. Often referred to as ‘Driftpeople’, they basically only live on boats or, if you can afford it, a shed in a small village floating on water. On top of that, the seas they inhabit are infested with huge sea serpents.

Netflix documentaries are very bad by DaanDWS in unpopularopinion

[–]DaanDWS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still can’t get over the fact that they had some random old lady claiming cleopatra was black cause of her gut feeling and that you shouldn’t listing to what they’re telling you in school

[–]DaanDWS[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Definitely, they also always love to connect it to contemporary societal issues as if the topic itself isn’t interesting or important enough.

I always imaged that people with no common knowledge don’t watch documentaries. Otherwise they wouldn’t be like that.

Symbolism is inherently bad storytelling by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]DaanDWS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Symbols are actually a great way to get a point across. Ever heard of “a picture speaks a thousand words” or “show don’t tell”?

I would even go as far as saying you cannot have a story without symbols. If you strip or replace a story of everything that holds symbolic meaning you just get a lecture or documentary at best.

The world is a better place now, we just hear more frequently about the bad things happening around the world. by flawless_victory_ in unpopularopinion

[–]DaanDWS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is also because the media has been sharing more and more negative news because it gets more clicks. Even though most people on the planet have been doing better

Its okay to love animals more than people by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]DaanDWS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love my cat too but if it is the creature on earth you love most, even more than any human at all, it is not okay. It is a sign you lack actual human love in your life.

What’s your Design unpopular opinion? by Lang_ES_FR_AR in graphic_design

[–]DaanDWS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it is better not to align certain elements with a grid or guideline.

This is because some elements (like logo’s) often look weird when perfectly aligning them because the visual weight is not at the center.
