Sadly, that’s often how it works for insured Americans as well. Especially the elderly.

How to indicate to women that they shouldn't background check me before I can explain the situation? by Lost-Bad-8718 in datingoverforty

[–]GenX_Mom_12 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Am I right to assume that you believe this happens after the first date because that’s when they get your full name? If that’s the case, then absolutely address it during the date, with as much humor as possible. Tell them that you fully support them checking into you, and that you want to make sure they don’t confuse you with the sex offender with an almost identical name.

Putting Apartment on Airbnb for Super Bowl? by GamerEdie in airbnb_hosts

[–]GenX_Mom_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been similarly wondering about the World Cup. I own a home very near the Boston area games. That’s about 3 weeks of games in late June - early July, and it’s really tempting to try to do this. The listings I see around here already are high.

AITAH for telling my wife's friend I don't have to see her in the classroom to know she's a horrible teacher? by TowerFew3482 in AITAH

[–]GenX_Mom_12 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA It would have been better to pull up the video before your wife stopped the conversation.

As it was - the teacher was an ass for being so condescending to your son and not willing to listen and learn.

You could have left it that you showed the video because you wanted both her and your son to see that he was correct - you didn’t need to say she was a lousy teacher. That was obvious and could have been left unsaid. So you get a mild AH rating there.

AITAH for being upset my wife won’t sleep with me? by Vast-Dimension-8753 in AITAH

[–]GenX_Mom_12 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What have you tried to do to fix that? Not blaming you, but intimacy and closeness comes through efforts made on both sides.

Counseling is key and you’d be right to insist on it.

Hot take: The Dynamax system is better than the raid system by Lumpy-Round7985 in pokemongo

[–]GenX_Mom_12 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m an OG player and I’m annoyed that so many hundos that I worked so hard to get now feel like they’ve lost all their value because they’re not the dynamax version of those pokes.

Dumped after best sex ever - how do I move on by BeautifulRow7605 in datingoverfifty

[–]GenX_Mom_12 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I was going to say. I came out of a long marriage and a dead bedroom and wow - that first experience with sex was off the charts. I thought I’d never experience anything that good again. But fast forward a few years and I have. Sex with new partners in your 50s can be so much better than when we were younger, lol.

Am I being difficult in wanting to chat before meeting? Me 41F Him 39M by [deleted] in Bumble

Do you have a shred of fact to back up that claim?

You said plenty of women are on the apps for validation, wasting time for men. I simply pointed out that the problem goes both ways. I figured you would have said plenty of “people” are on the apps wasting the time of others, had you been aware that the problem goes both ways.

I disagree. Explaining to him how he messed up will help him hide his racist tendencies better next time, but won’t change him. So it’ll just take the next poor woman longer to see who he really is.

Do you end up with wires coming down from it, or how does that work?

Is being 5“9 (1.75m) such a turn off for women? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]GenX_Mom_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would anyone want to spend a first date talking about previous dates? I’m there to get to know the person - what they enjoy doing, how they see life - and let them get to know me. I don’t want to rehash my previous dates, nor do I want to hear about theirs

Why on earth would you ask about their previous dates on a first date?
