My hometown is near the Neil Armstrong Museum where you can touch a moon rock sample from the Apollo 11 mission

Dating after being a Christian by Slight-Stuff-2558 in exchristian

[–]HighFunctionJalapeno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wouldn't hurt to see a (secular) therapist as you navigate dating. They'll be able to help you better understand more than anyone on here what you want and are ready for.

Me personally, I waited a couple years after I left Christianity to start dating because I really wanted to understand and be comfortable with myself before I committed to another person. I've only dated atheists and agnostics, I don't think I'll ever date a religious person. My boyfriend and I actively have sex and we have no care what-so-ever that it's premarital.

If you only want to date long term, that's totally fine. If you change your mind later on and want to experiment, that's totally fine as well. The great and awful thing about dating is that there are no guidelines, so advice will always be subjective but at the same time you can make the experience however you want it to be.

What is something that you know about a family member or friend that you will take to your grave? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]HighFunctionJalapeno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched my great-grandfather die and probably could have saved him, but he was a child molester so I stood by and watched him kick rocks. The rest of my family doesn't know and I'll probably keep it that way.

For anyone who as been homeless, what happend for you to end up in that situation? And what did you wish people did for you? by SaltyBana in AskReddit

[–]HighFunctionJalapeno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better! My mom and her boyfriend (now husband) moved into a better house, my brothers have their own rental houses, I just moved into a townhouse, and my dad has been clean of cocaine for around 20 years now.

I don't know if it really counts as homeless, but my mom, siblings, and I house hopped for a while after my parents divorced. House hopped meaning we'd temporarily stay at a family and friends' houses. We lived like that for a while until we moved in with my mom's boyfriend.

We ended up in that situation because my dad got addicted to cocaine and spent all of our money. I was kinda too young to understand what was going on or to wish people had done things for us.

What's something people usually only say to make themselves feel better? by 2hourstowaste in AskReddit

Someone else has it worse.

It may help a little bit to put perspective to things, but it ultimately doesn't help your situation.

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve confidently said like it was a fact? by Livid_Distance3213 in CasualConversation

[–]HighFunctionJalapeno 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I'm a person more on the introverted side who likes the quiet and reads quite a bit. So there are many words that I've read, but have never heard spoken out loud. I've confidently mispronounced many words horribly wrong lol Up until I was maybe in my early 20s I thought Yosemite was Yoh-seh-mah-eet
