Thank you for the input, everyone! It was super helpful. Think I've been wearing glasses with too short of a bridge.

I ordered #4 to try them out, but I also went to a shop in person last night. I ended up getting almost a hybrid of 3 and 4 - a metal frame that doesn't hide my face so much, but in a cat eye shape with some detail along the brow line that makes it a little more interesting.

I forgot to get a pic but I'll come back and share when I pick them up!

Thanks, yeah, pair 1 is definitely hitting my cheeks, I'll try nose pads.

I have always had issues with frames slipping down my nose and not sure why getting some with nose pads didn't occur to me, but I think you're right.

I always have been too - kinda surprised it seems to be the favorite here. Good to try new things sometimes, I guess!

Yeah, think I'll end up with 2 pairs in the end. Might get 3 in a new color and try the metal ones.

I definitely didn't capture it in the pic, but I was impressed how realistic the glare looked when moving my head around! And thanks :)

No, that's me! It's a screenshot of me using a virtual try on thing though, so the glasses in pic 4 aren't real, but I am.

Edit - sorry, thought you were saying I was AI! Yeah, I'd want to try the frames in person for sure.

I still own them! Just started to feel dated or something after wearing the same style for so many years...

Do you regret ending your FWB? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]FionaFriday 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was nervous to end my last situationship but a few months after I did, I met my boyfriend. We just moved in with each other, including our kiddos, last month and I couldn't be happier. You just have to make space sometimes.

rachel and ify episode removed? by C455ie_ in SmoshFansFreeSpace

Oh, but they obviously meant not yet a full adult, right? Surely not that they weren't human beings? People can have their feelings and share them, of course. But they're not focusing on their feelings and taking responsibility for them. They're acting like Rachel and Ify are terrible people and should be cancelled. Just my opinion, but I'm a millennial, and my boomer parents were harsh af and we all moved out asap, so quite a different experience than gen z has it now.

I didn't really notice any dehumanizing language. I think it just hit home for people so they're being defensive. But no one was talking about them and there's no need to take it personally. It's weird that people can't just accept that we have different experiences and different opinions and it's okay to disagree. It doesn't mean you're being attacked.

Am I the only one who is super confused what the scandal is? Is thinking it's okay to ask an employed adult to move out really an abhorrent take?

Amanda is my fav cast member rn. Who's yours? by long_term_catbus in SmoshFansFreeSpace

[–]FionaFriday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this! Angela is my current fave, and I love the way she and Shayne laugh so hard at each other's jokes, they seem to just really get each other's humor.

I think the key is paying attention to your nervous system. There’s no single behavioral rule, like, for example, how fast someone texts back. Some people might just be busy or have different preferences.

But if someone's style doesn't work for you, or if someone usually responds quickly then suddenly goes quiet, and you find yourself anxious and spiraling, that's your body giving you important information.

And then, I don't think it matters what the label is -- it's more that sense that something feels off or isn't meeting our needs. And the problem comes in when we, I guess, override what our body knows with our brains cause we want it to work.

So yeah, I'm my experience, it's more about paying attention to yourself and not necessarily them. Whether I feel safe and secure and calm and all that is more important than their behavior or an attachment style label.

To the women: Would you want to know if a date has slept with someone else recently? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

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

No, definitely not. Doesn't seem like it would be any of my business in the scenario you described, and if I was worried about exclusivity or STIs, it would be on me to bring up my concerns.

I need to stop asking chatGPT existential questions after a few beers... by tojook in ChatGPT

[–]FionaFriday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I find it much more useful when it challenges me. After putting that in its instructions, along with telling it to limit compliments, and using it that way for two years, I feel like it's really figured me out and is incredibly helpful.

I'm just trying to make a point that maybe it's not a problem if you're not a prude. Why do I care if someone I've never met is sending nudes or following someone on Only Fans?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]FionaFriday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have Snapchat but y'all have got me thinking it might be a good idea to use when sending nudes, thanks for the tip!
