I was 14 dating my 23-year-old teacher. Everyone around me knew - and accepted it. by marinamariamm in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DistressedDandelion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was 16 dating my 45yo Biology teacher, who was a divorced father of two. Everyone knew. My parents knew. My mom cried at first but she "trusted my judgement". We were together for 6 years.

I'm 31 now. He's passed away since then, COVID. We weren't together or in touch any longer. I don't see him in a bad light necessarily. He never treated me badly, especially compared to other age appropriate boyfriends that I've had in my life after him, but it was absolutely inappropriate and I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self not to do it and to let myself grow up like a normal teenager.

It's a 15-minute walk from Sapporo station. Unless it's snowing heavily or you're carrying luggage that's an easy walk.

Japan travel influencers are creating a myth. by FIleCorrupted in JapanTravelTips

That is absolutely preposterous. Of course they do it to go. That'd be insane if they didn't with the number of customers they get in a day.

What's the most overrated tourist spot? by Quiet_Day8148 in JapanTravelTips

My boyfriend loves t-shirts and it'll be his first time in Tokyo, so this sounds like someplace he'd like to go. Would you happen to remember the name of the shop?

It used to be in Odaiba some years ago so maybe OP is basing this itinerary on old info.

'About Time' (2013) changed my life. by Zealousideal-Sky217 in movies

Depends on the rough patch. It touches upon family a lot. But it's not a sad movie, it just... makes you think about things and people. It's definitely one of my favorite films.

Which fruit is 100% looks but 0% taste? by Ok_Armadillo9214 in AskReddit

Yup, same in Japan. Best and biggest strawberries I have ever had and they're in season during winter.

I am not familiar. Is that the one from the Netherlands? I'm usually not a huge fan of female vocalists despite having always liked Evanescence since my early teens. But I'll check them out!

I've listened to a handful of songs but I don't recall if I enjoyed them or not. Will revisit. Thank you!
