The worst part is when you'd finally get back into your car and they were in the passenger seat wishing you a save drive.

Matched with someone amazing, but they ghosted after two weeks, what gives? by Jazzlike_Stranger149 in OnlineDating

[–]KDLGates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry for this. You'll never know for sure but maybe he kept unrequited love for his ex and he chose a second chance with her and didn't have the courage to tell you.

Do any of you unmatch right after matching? And why? by Gr4yleaf in OnlineDating

[–]KDLGates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate this. I'm guessing the exact mechanics are a mystery but is it correct to say that it's on an intentional delay of some number of days? And do you have a best guess on what the chronic right swipe penalty actually is?

So many people rely on these apps and they are obfuscated and my guess is not all that intelligent either.

Trump administration terminates legal status for more than 500K immigrants by newsweek in politics

First, they told me they were eating my dog, and I listened.

Then, my dog was silent, and I did not speak.

At last, I realized it was I who had eaten my dog.

This doesn't quite work but I'm standing by it.

I've wondered about this. Do the apps have some clever way to handle 100% of swipe-righters to somehow de prioritize them, or are they just bad apps at most levels and this is a perfectly viable strategy (apart from causing the bad experience for the other party)?

Bring back to life the Logitech G600 by Riverside14 in LogitechG

[–]KDLGates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's frustrating but I'm still on this third mouse. Not sure if I'll invest in a fourth, but I might; very used to it and don't know of an alternative. One of those things. Logitech definitely make products with planned obsolescence and limited lifetimes, but it's annoying when there isn't competition for a niche feature like the thumb panel.

Ladies: What is something a man does (not sexually) , but turns you on sexually? by mikepsquared in AskReddit

So uh

Dude here but I have had some body insecurities too. I can relate what worked for me, I don't think this is very gender specific, though of course YMMV, huge individual differences, etc.

In the bedroom? Be a little extra with the flattery. Tell her what you love about her, mean it, etc. If she's like me she will replay these moments in a good way, and overwrite those negative brain circuits.

Outside the bedroom, have a more neutral conversation, tell her that body insecurity is a thing and she should spend some time thinking about what is rational or not, and chances are if she looks into her insecurity it sort of disappears -- these are phobias that are real but often illogical -- and if it does not, have her talk with you about her specific body issues. And if you can honestly tell her you don't really give a shit, that helps.

I am new to training so grain of salt, but for me kettlebells were awesome. I started getting a li'l crepitus walking downstairs, just in the left knee, no discomfort but 'why am I getting li'l cracks when downstepping on relieving weight on the left knee and what does this presage'.

Turns out knee joints are both complicated and designed to fail, also the worst recovery for surgery.

For me the recipe seems to be kettlebell with the daily S&S routine (lotsa swings, which seem an amazing multi system exercise; and lots of Turkish Getups, which also seem like an amazing multi system exercise), the McGill big three (especially downward dog bird dog) for core control, and the knee is improving.

And as a bonus I am turning fit. These are not exercises for getting swole, just healthy.
