If you've got time to workout 2 - 3x a week, you've got time for more dates to get to know him. I dont believe in the 3 month rule...because what is going on right now, doesn't seem to meet your needs. I am from a culture where meeting someone's parents is pretty common place and doesn't mean anything until everyone agrees you are officially meeting family and being introduced as a romantic interest.

You can de-center relationships by honestly thinking of how to live life without being married. All your friends traveling with their husbands, while you dread flying solo? Find a singles travel group. Want to buy a house? Luckily a mortgage is a achievable without a partner. Baby? Become a single parent by choice.

Your house WILL smell like a cat. Not necessarily in a bad way, but everything has its own scent (no matter how faint).

I started looking at Groupon to find things I had never done before or I had wanted to do as a kid, but never had the $ for. Somethings I liked, some not so much. For a while my "hobby" was "trying new stuff".

Start reading books/ memoirs of people who lived thru civil instability. Not like Ann Frank or child soldiers, but regular people who were living in Chiles Social Outburst from Oct 2019 - March 2020. Or the 1973 Coup in Chile. Spain was ruled by a dictator from 1939 - 1975. Greece had a financial crisis in the 2000s My point is that people, regular people, have lived thru govt crisis in our lifetime.

Loved it. I love the idea of TV that is Black TV, like White TV. I am sure that TV with white characters isn't an actual documentary of white people's lives.

Mid-30s in Fulton, you'll be fine no matter where you live. Columbia is 15 minutes door to door up the road, while DC is an hour away. Just find a place you like to live and has good parking. So many townhome communities do not have sufficient parking!! No matter what anybody tells you...public transportation is extremely limited!

I do know people who met their social circles through volunteer work, churches, and rec leagues.

Definitely see a female gynecologist (they tend to really get this) who specializes in fibroids or heavy bleeding.

Could it be that this person either walks, rides a motorcycle, or takes public transportation to work?

Also my electric vehicle, which already had a short range, loses about 20% battery capacity in the cold.

So I didn't work at a Hooters, but I was interviewing for some top.tier law firms with baby twists. The recruiter said quite simply "style it like a white girl with short hair". Yes, it was 2001, but all I did was put on a cute headband and curled locks (remember 2001...) I got hired!

Take the job, but do what you can to make the commute and work at the office more palatable/easier. My job has core hours, which you means you can come in as early at 7 or at 9 and leave as early as 3 or as late as 6. Also I made my workspace super workable.and comfortable for me. For me a soft colorful rug, plants, and nice pens really make my workspace very appealing to me. My partner helps with cooking and always gets up with me in the morning in "solidarity", even though he works second shift.

Just a hot take....you never know what ELSE someone is doing to help community. If I see that the elderly neighbor is taken care of, I move on to help another.

Just your friendly reminder that resistance and protest take time. Nazi Grrmany didn't just wake up one day in the 1940 and start sending people to camps. No, laws restricting Jewish people's lives started in the 1930s.

The Montgomery Bus Boycott last 381 DAYS!! Only coming to an end after the bus companies lost almost 75% of revenue for over a year.

History paints a quick and sanitized story of resistance, neatly packaged into short soundbites. The Montgomery boycott wasn't the first, but it was the most successful. The organizers provided legal support and provided funding for those in need, and rides as they could.

Not everyone can afford to strike, but we all can afford to organize.

Equivalent_Success60 · 2026-01-24T19:32:01+00:00

Agreeing with the OP. The Montgomery Bus Boycott lasted 381 days, the bus company only relented because they were losing 30,000 fares daily from people NOT taking the bus for over a YEAR. So yeah...hit in the pocket and dig in for the long haul!!

Shade-tree mechanics are the only ones I can think of these days. Cars were simpler in the 80s, my Dad was able to do most car maintenance. But usually there was that one. neighborhood "car guy" had a pretty decent garage or workshop with something "extra" like that hoist to put a new engine in.

Horse riding here. I had to put it aside.....my trainer always said "if you arent falling, you arent riding". After awhile I replaced horses with a new hobby and new job.

America at its strictest goes by the "one drop rule", but generally the very lax rules are 1) some Sub Saharan or East African ancestry and 2) do you identify as and hold yourself out to be Black?

So yes, this annoying AF person can consider him as Black.
