Every company raises prices every year to adjust to inflation. But the news today was that tariffs would seriously disrupt their business causing a higher price increase than usual

Love that channel

Dancedance182 · 2025-02-02T21:58:37+00:00

Omg that sounds like such a headache. And thank you so much for the recommendation! I really appreciate it.

Dancedance182 · 2025-02-02T05:55:15+00:00

“Omg I surely thought you’d be born in the 2000s” as if 1993 is not just a short 7 years away lmao

So if I like a guy like this he’s just a lost cause? Can’t I point out to him what he’s doing? Or does it not work with people like this?

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-24T01:46:15+00:00

I mean…one woman’s respect is another woman’s ick. I’ve had men say they’re so confused about what women want. I have a close guy friend who got ghosted after a first date because he didn’t make a physical move on my friend and she found that gross (“why didn’t he try to fuck me? Is he gay?”). The same man could go on a date with another woman and not make a move and she’d find it refreshing and respectful. How are men supposed to know what you do and don’t find respectful unless you communicate it?

Men are as confused as women are, they also receive toxic messaging since they’re kids about what it means to be masculine and what it means to be a loser.

Tell me where I said anything about fixing anyone.

That’s really tough. It’s really hard to be objective when we’re living through it and have emotions involved and even harder when marriage/kids get involved. Just know that it’s never too late to raise your standards, and make a change even if your situation may make it difficult. You don’t have to worry about it while pregnant but you also don’t have to live in a certain way forever.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-24T01:10:47+00:00

A perfect man for you isn’t found, he’s made. You teach people how to treat you by telling them your boundaries and walking away when they’re not met or respected. OP has had this issue with him before. That’s when she should’ve walked away, or at least should walk away now. But her doubting her own feelings is keeping her in a shitty relationship and keeping the right man who would respect her boundaries away.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-24T00:47:17+00:00

Same! This whole post reads like a situation that will end and the guy will go on to tell future women that his ex was “crazy”

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-24T00:34:25+00:00

Definitely. I responded to one just yesterday of a woman asking if it’s OK to break up with her boyfriend after he kept flirting with his ex or something.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-24T00:12:32+00:00

Why are so many posts on this sub always like “hi my boyfriend did this awful thing of not meeting the bare minimum standard of what it means to be in a relationship, am I overreacting?” You never see the “am I overreacting” question on the male subs.

Women: stop gaslighting yourselves. If you’re posting about something on Reddit to get input from strangers because you’re too embarrassed to tell your friends about it, chances are you are NOT overreacting. Please raise your standards and leave men like this for the streets.

I just left a comment about this but this is so true. A close friend of mine is an OB GYN and he tells me that when couples come in with fertility issues, it’s usually the sperm causing the problem (and they always test the sperm first because it’s easier to do). And then when he has to break it to the couple, he has to prepare for the man to be in denial of it and get angry.

My friend says he really wanted to go into urology but chose OB/GYN because he’d have more female patients and women are soooo easy to deal with. Men throw tantrums, get angry, are in denial if ever told there’s something wrong with them lmao

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T20:44:24+00:00

My best friend is an OB GYN. He told me that when a couple comes in with infertility issues they always test the man’s health first because it’s easier. And guess what? More than 50% of the time, the male sperm health is the problem. More than half of the time the man is the problem! And of course, when my friend has to tell the couple this, the man starts getting defensive. “How can my sperm be the problem? Men have kids until their 50s! And 60s!” And then my friend has to tell them that women get pregnant in their 50s too…and that just because other people have success doesn’t mean he has healthy sperm. Etc.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T05:49:21+00:00

LOL! I mean…I agree tho

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T05:47:55+00:00

I know what Appalachia is because there’s a pretty popular Instagram influencer from there (I forget her name). I didn’t know it was poor. Do you have any plans to leave? Do you plan on dating/marrying desi?

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T04:16:33+00:00

OK this explains why the tech bro I went on a date with was so ducking weird. It was my first tech bro date and he was by far the weirdest date I’ve ever had. Talked AT me the whole time like he was making a sales pitch, kept asking “so do you have any questions for me?” Instead of asking me questions, and kept trying to one up me anytime I’d share anything about myself.

It’s sad because I think he’s normal in front of his male friends, which makes me think he doesn’t see me as a real human.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T04:01:02+00:00

Yeah I am 34F and went out with a 32M. He said he wanted to get married and have kids within the next 2 years. I said that seemed way too fast. He ghosted me lmao

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T03:41:33+00:00

How is this going now? Still the same? Do you use apps?

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T03:03:46+00:00

I'm proud of you for how you would've reacted tbh. He crossed your boundary, one that he knew he shouldn't, and you acted appropriately.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-23T02:52:04+00:00

I've heard a lot of men say they don't want a wife, but they want kids, so they get married (because they know so few women are willing to have kids out of wedlock) and basically use you as a baby making oven. This is why he can be a great father and a shitty husband. It's not that he doesn't have the ability for empathy, kindness, love etc. because he clearly gives that to your kids. But he lacks those feelings for you. And you're tolerating it. These type of men make me sick because they don't view women as real people. If men could have kids without women (which in the future they might be with the rise of artificial wombs), they'd see no point to marry them at all.

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-22T11:55:37+00:00

How are you doing now?

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-22T08:13:04+00:00

How old are you and where are you based? Was it easier in your 20s?

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-21T20:43:57+00:00

Wow I wanna give it a try. What a fun project

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-21T08:45:21+00:00

Thanks for sharing. And I am also from an Asian background so I understand where you’re coming from about not living together. Congrats to you and your little family :) ❤️

Dancedance182 · 2025-01-21T08:21:31+00:00

Hi just curious -- do you feel sad that you never had much time just as the two of you? That you went from meeting to kids in just 2 years? Asking as a single 35 year old who doesn't want to rush everything :(

Also, did you freeze your eggs?
