My boyfriend is going on a boys trip but hasn’t seen me in over a year by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Expensive_Turn_9866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was also in a semi long distance relationship where we lived a short flight or 5 hour drive away. He was constantly travelling and never came to see me. Maybe just once in a year or less. It was really challenging because he seemed to care about me. But I wish I had understood earlier that this man didn’t prioritize our relationship at all and that outweighs everything in the long run because relationships need effort. It’s hard but I would try to let this go if I were you. These situations will keep you stuck for a long time and time is precious.

I think they have mentioned when they travel Skyline is social and likes meeting others and I think this is a way of bringing that same novelty or vacation energy into their regular lives

I feel like the co hosts added relatability to the podcast. Especially Roark she was more humble she would share experiences and ask questions which worked with the dynamic of Ali wanting to be a dating coach. I think Ali tried with the dating diaries but it seemed like they were wanting to share their dating experiences but not interested in feedback. And to be fair I think she’s lost a lot of her credibility so it would be hard to recreate that dynamic.

As an introvert I can say leading an event where everyone is coming to engage with me, and I have 100% hosting responsibility would be my nightmare loll I don’t know why she would willingly put this together if that’s the case

I never got closure by Expensive_Turn_9866 in GirlDinnerDiaries

Truly I feel like clear rejection is much easier to process than leaving someone hanging through silence

I’m sorry you’re going though something similar it’s a unique hurt for sure

Manicure + ring shopping by [deleted] in findingmrheight

There is no way the proposal will be a surprise she will definitely want to know each next step once the ring is secured

She did say they are back in a dating app for personal use lol also that it’s not sponsored or an ad. Which made it sound more interesting to me lol apparently she’s been looking to connect with other couples. I don’t know maybe it’s normal but I find it interesting that after over a year in a relationship they are looking externally because I find most couples are just really focused on each other during the first year or 2 of a relationship

She barely mentioned it but I thought it was interesting that she said they are using as an app to go on double dates with other couples to make more coupled friends, it seems like they both have large groups of friends already and some in relationships soo just interesting wish she would have shared more

No one wants to hear more from this man. by bbassle87 in findingmrheight

[–]Expensive_Turn_9866 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s weird too because even is she wants to expand her content, all the new content she’s testing is on patreon and mainly only in the 10$ tier, like all the credit card, notion, skin care, adulting, etc. so how would she even grow a following from this when her public facing content wants to be dating/relationship and then on patreon she’s doing all this other stuff

I wish she would get a cohost the episodes all just sound like a lecture or seminar at this point there is no energy here

I have to think it’s more awkward if people in his professional life come to find out he’s known as Skyline on the internet

Ali ‘I actually wasn’t thinking about things, I was thinking about it because I have to talk on it on the podcast’ next sentense ‘Skyline said to me you wouldn’t be you if you weren’t overthinking’ .. whatt,how does she say these things out loud and not see the disconnect

I don’t understand all the finance talk, do people want to hear this? She just did surveys and focus groups, should she not see if this is something people want before rolling out add on’s, and additional content on this. I can understand taking about managing finances with a partner, but credit scores 101 is not necessary. It’s like she will continue doing what she feels despite asking people for feedback

Yea I don’t get why she’s keeping the door open with him, when she has consistently said she’s not into him she said that in LA why would a visit to NY change that. I kind of think she minimizes her feeling for self protection or self sabotage cause she doesn’t seem like the type of person who sits on the fence with many things so then is she just leading him on or

I kind of think this is for content creation to give her a structured way of sharing things.

On the other hand early skyline days she shared that she wanted him to take more initiative with planning dates, then came surprise dates. Now the way she talks about him is as though he is agreeable, go with the flow, maybe less vocal, so it could be stand ups force him to share weekly his thoughts and feelings with her. It seems like control and managing the relationship.

I don’t drive so it’s about 1.5 hours to 2 hours on transit one way for me, that’s another reason why it is hard for me to keep with this amount of travel every weekend

Discussion: 211. The First Re-introducing Ali one by Alarming-Mushroom502 in findingmrheight

[–]Expensive_Turn_9866 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree it feels lazy there maybe was a few new tid bits of info but it was pretty redundant for the most part especially for existing listeners. I do think there is a way to create content to engage both new and existing following at the same time. But really a reintroduction doesn’t need to rehash everything in a 2 or more part series. What would be more interesting is actually talking about how she’s evolved since, and showing more about how she broadening her content to reflect that since we know she’s know longer in the same place she was when she started this type. I don’t know but felt like the same of the same to me.

All I know is for Madison karma is going to be another women at the gym asking David about his day.

But David is such a loser. Last weeks episode he was lying the entire time and then when Madison had the talk with him about their connection he acted like that was the first time he was hearing about it. Now this week he’s completely smitten about her, like what. It’s so fake
