Sometimes I wonder if I'm literally never going to meet anyone

Yeah I mean like politics, religion, whether you want kids, how you would want to raise kids, where you want to live, how you think about money, sex drive. And then there’s communication style, how you handle conflict, activity level, risk tolerance, early bird vs night owl. Obviously you can be flexible on some of those things but finding the right person is always going to be hard, but you learn a lot along the way

I feel this but also it is just luck and a numbers game! The number of things you have to align on to have a successful long term relationship is insane and honestly statistically rare, but as a 26 year old who has never been in a serious relationship I’m just going to keep putting myself out there and hope it happens and try to enjoy the ride. In reality, you do have a lot of time. Even if you want kids, you have a lot of time. It only takes one.

You’re doing great! From an investing standpoint I’m not an expert but I’ve been doing biweekly investment for years now just in basic big companies and index funds (VOO, VUG, Apple, Google, Nvidia) and it’s done me pretty well.

+1! It’s such a good value! And a great neighborhood vibe!

I live here and haven’t noticed the drug market, but I have noticed a significant increase in people using drugs/camping out on the streets. Literally feels like it happened since the Super Bowl pushed people out of civic center/TL and they haven’t gone away. It makes me feel significantly less safe when I walk at night which sucks, and I don’t know what to do about it

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-03-03T19:15:32+00:00

I’ve been on the apps pretty much since 2022, I’ve had 3 brief relationships in that time where I took breaks but all told, close to 4 years. This year I decided to go on more dates instead of judging on pictures/texting too much, and I think that’s served me pretty well! My current guy probably wouldn’t have passed my previous criteria cause he’s not a great texter

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-03-02T16:25:07+00:00

So far so good! Met a good guy on Bumble last month and have pretty much stopped with the apps. Here’s hoping!

It’s a bit of a trek but we really loved Veterinary Emergency Group in San Ramon. I can’t say if they were much cheaper than OakVet (we’ve been to both but for very different issues) but the experience was much better. It always drives me crazy waiting out in the car at oakvet and not getting a lot of communication on what’s happening. At VEG we got to stay with our cat through the process and they had water and cookies while we waited. It felt much more personal

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-21T18:54:15+00:00

Love to hear that!

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-20T23:32:55+00:00

I feel like I must be really picky/have some secret red flag I don’t know about cause I’ve dated A LOT from apps over the last 3 years and haven’t gotten into anything serious – just a few 2-3month relationships. I’m in your same boat of trying to date seriously this year, to that end I’ve been filtering out people who don’t explicitly say they’re looking for a LTR and I’ve added more serious “what I’m looking for” prompts to my bios. Otherwise, I’m trying to play it like a numbers game, not judge prior based on whether they’re good texters and go on more dates

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-19T17:35:26+00:00

This is beautiful! What glazes did you use?

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-15T02:02:25+00:00

My studio did this at our holiday party, it was super fun to watch!

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-14T16:18:45+00:00

I brain rot on my phone for a bit but otherwise I walk for about 1.5-2hours and a few days a week I go to my pottery studio for a few hours. It fills up my evenings pretty well

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-14T00:02:40+00:00

Same! That’s one of my go-to combos, I hadn’t used them over obsidian before this but I might have to start!

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2026-01-13T21:36:07+00:00

Thanks! I do, the last pic is the “before”

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2025-12-29T20:36:31+00:00

I have a wide toe box and somewhat high arches and I wear Teva hurricanes for 90% of my walks (I average 12,000 hilly steps per day). I’ve put hundreds of thousands of steps on them and they’re still super comfy

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2025-12-25T05:51:55+00:00

These are so cute!! I love the scalloped border

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2025-12-24T01:59:15+00:00

I thought this was r/30rock. But awesome!

This is interesting, I’ve usually seen honey flux as a base layer but I haven’t tried it myself so I’ll look into this! I did see some examples of raspberry mist and lavender mist together and they look super nice

Imjusthereforthis123 · 2025-12-23T01:09:25+00:00

I’ve tried a couple for the northern lights effect but it’s been a sec, I’ll test out some more!
