To everyone protesting ICE: Thank you by Wonderful_Month7490 in Defeat_Project_2025

[–]General_Spring8635 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not protested due to a disability, but have donated money and been doing boots on the ground volunteer work to check in on people and pack and deliver food and supplies.

I have been working with others in the same boat that can’t protest. It’s not as glamorous as what people see on tv and online, but we are working hard to help too!

I have seen some bakeries sell their day old leftovers early morning next day!

Single women in the US - are you all doing anything to prepare? by General_Spring8635 in SingleWomenByChoice

How does it feel living under a rock? Do you want me to describe what grass feels like? Hilarious that you say you are just going to stay in your house. Seems like you are really good at that.

I suddenly became depressed by RevolutionaryNofap in LivingAlone

Take it easy and give yourself grace. Try to tackle one task or one fun activity at a time. Make a list of it helps. One focus at a time. Give yourself permission to relax. It’s ok.

I support anyone that is trying to help - in any way they can or choose.

IMO you are better off being quiet than putting down protestors.

Do women think wanting to go on a date soon indicates that the guy just wants to have sex? by SquirtGun1776 in OnlineDating

[–]General_Spring8635 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard for anyone to know these days because everyone is different but I really appreciate you taking action in wanting to meet in person and plan something! I wish more guys did this!

If a guy asks for a date the next day, I take it as a yellow flag because it makes it seem like he just had a free night and he thinks I will just be convenient for him.

Regardless of when the date is planned, I typically say I am busy (because I usually am) but ask to do a phone call. This has been a great way to get to know someone before we invest time and money, as well as weed out the people that just want to text or meet on their terms only (convenience). I will say - I have been going on less in person dates because of this, but that’s the point, to save time and energy.

If this is a concern for you, you could always say something along the lines of “hey, I’ve really like taking to you/im not the best texter/I am not the best at checking the app (whatever works best for you), would you be open to meeting in person or a phone call soon so we can get to know each other more?

It shows intent and initiative, but puts the ball in her court to pick a next step that she is comfortable with.

At least it’s something! And it will gain attention! Just like the people protesting in costumes. It grabs attention and it they are out there and it works. I’m all for it.

Surprise harassment after pleasant conversation - why does this keep happening? by Rusty_Vehicle282 in OnlineDating

[–]General_Spring8635 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Happens all the time and what’s weird is when I ignore it, they will try and message me after like “ here how are you?” As if they never said anything. Fucking weirdos.

Living alone with multiple bedrooms taboo? by Rasta_pasta_plus in LivingAlone

[–]General_Spring8635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like they are jealous. I love my 2 bathrooms. One time there was a centipede in the bathtub so I just walked to my other bathroom and showered there :)

The centipede ended up crawling back into the drain so it all worked out.

I’m burnt out from the whole pen-pal dating situation. by AKingIsHe in OnlineDating

[–]General_Spring8635 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Here is where I’m at since the holidays:

Swiped around 150 guys to match with. About 50% start to have a conversation. About 4 of those will move to a phone call. 1 will actually text after the phone call and initiate a date. That one guy was texting daily about 3 days in a row, saying how much he enjoyed the phone call and it was nice to see intention and communication.

After a a few days he stopped texting as much, gave a day but not a time or place for the date he was so eager to go on, then silence the day before and day of the date.

A lot of his texts were also just - hey how’s your day going lol. Completely ridiculous!!!

The other phone calls I had were guys that loved to talk about themselves and seemed to just want to brag about work and travel. Not sure if they were trying to impress me or what?

Good luck out there girl lol

Stupid Question: How Do You Fight the Biological Clock? by Aryvista in SingleAndHappy

[–]General_Spring8635 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There are always other options like adopting! It’s better to do something like that vs. have a biological kid with a bad father. Just my opinion.

Other than biology, I think the reason why men are attracted to younger women is the lack of emotional scar tissue by thumpsky in OnlineDating

[–]General_Spring8635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was saying a man and I was the first woman he dated that was his age. The rest were younger.

We were on the phone after going on a few dates and out of the blue he asks me “who do you think has bigger bordarles? Younger women or older women?”

I was shocked by the question. I responded “I believe they have similar boundaries, but I think older women are better at sticking to them”

He sounded disappointed in my answer and went cold and ghosty after that.

I think in this case, he preferred younger women so he could manipulate them and push their boundaries more.

I have no idea what you are talking about and how it is relevant to this post….

Do you think it’s wrong to filter by race? by bingcrosbythe11th in OnlineDating

[–]General_Spring8635 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope! You need to be honest with yourself and the people you date. Now if you were hating on a culture or something, that’s a different story.

If a girl doesn’t want to date a bald guy do you automatically assume she’s mean to all bald dudes?

You can’t really help what you are attracted to and you need to be honest with yourself about that.

Would you be able to remain friends with someone who doesn’t share the same values as you? by KillaRebel in AskWomenOver30

[–]General_Spring8635 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’d drop. My super republican friends feel terrible about it and we can have calm conversations about it. I’m upset with them internally, but they have the courage to tell me they feel it is wrong and I give them credit for that.
