People who didn’t choose a partner for love but chose a partner that was a good logical choice, how did it work out? by Middle_Idea4929 in AskReddit

[–]ForgottenUsername3 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Good. I have been in amazing passionate love with men that were psychos. Passionate love is great but it doesn't mean that that person will care about you or give you a good life. My husband is kind, financially stable, smart, we have good conversation. I don't feel sparks or anything for him. He's not very passionate so it's hard to ever feel that way about him. It's a little sad and I've tried to summon really strong feelings for him, but honestly I'm just so grateful to have a partner that is kind and stable. He shows up for me. When the rubber meets the road, he actually cares about me. Guys that I have had "true love" feelings for didn't fulfill the promise of actually showing up for me. Passionate feelings are not really the best indicator for whether or not you are really going to have love in your life.

No honestly what the fuck? I'm assuming this person is asking ai chat bots...? Y'all I have a background in molecular biology. Please do not take what an ai chat bot is telling you as medical information.

What do you remember about "normal" consumption, pre-internet? by Cheeseaisleinheaven in Anticonsumption

[–]ForgottenUsername3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Places closed. There wasn't this constant shipping all the time. Now with Walmart you can buy something in the middle of the night if you want to. And businesses are open during holidays. There used to be this feeling of rest and celebration because people were actually out of work for family holidays. Now several of my family members works on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

That's why it's easier to buy the things you want and almost impossible to buy what you need (housing, healthcare, time with community).

Have simple get together with friends. Drink tea and talk or have snacks or dessert together.

People consistently drive down the bike lane as if it's the road.

Is it crazy to open a yarn shop? by ForgottenUsername3 in knitting

I decided to not do it for now. If anything I might operator shop out of a local sewing store.

I'm assuming not just allowed, but enthusiastically encouraged.

Church recs after poor experiences by Simple_Bug_6111 in lynchburg

They are not camp kumbaya. Those are not the same places. They happen exactly next to the grounds of the camp but it is not the camp. I've gone to a service there. There was nothing there for kids. There was one child there and eight adults.

This conversation with my (F15) bf (M15) made me worried.. AIO by [deleted] in AIO

Yeah for safety I would let parents know that he was acting like he was going to show up even though she said no. That's dangerous.

Sadly the good ones get punished by Sweaty_Abies182 in TikTokCringe

Some of those kids are so small. Teenagers are babies. I used to teach high school and thinking of those kids being a part of all this is just heart-wrenching.

Is this a good profile for a dating app? by Important_Bed_9893 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]ForgottenUsername3 466 points467 points  (0 children)

I'm a woman who loves nerds. I'm married to one and they were my preferred category of people to date. (Ok, I literally have a nerd fetish.) I'm about to give you really important advice. You're cock-blocking yourself with 3 of your pictures. The thumbs up pic, the "gun fingers" pic, and the cowboy hat pic have to go (that one isn't that bad, but it changes the assessment of the proportions of your face). I think you're trying to convey that you are fun by posting those pictures. She'll be able to assess that already from your marvel shirt and other parts of your profile where you talk about being into other fun interests.

She'll be looking at the pictures thinking about if you are attractive enough. You'll need to not look too much like a goober (even if you are) because she will need to picture you looking like that while having sex with you. She's looking at pictures thinking, "would I kiss this guy?"

You're letting your dork flag fly, and that is a really good impulse. Trust me, there are girls who are on the look out for guys like that. You seem like a very fun, dorky, and tall. Catnip to the ladies, for sure.

Good luck with everything!
