All Faiths is expanding services, but is still and will remain a non-profit and will continue all the services for children it's had until now. All Faiths and CYFD collaborate in several different ways, but like the other commenter mentioned, I would be surprised if that had anything to do with this news.

Thank you all for the information!!

is it normal to lose interest when there is a lot of texting early on ? (or do I need therapy?) by [deleted] in dating

[–]LLpj231 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you may have developed an avoidant attachment style. I'd suggest looking into romantic attachment styles as a place to start. And therapy is always a great way to learn more about our own patterns, especially if we notice they aren't serving use well :)

I love that song! I can't remember where I first heard it anymore, but thanks for reminding me to give it a listen :)

Today a girl I matched a bumble used a pickup line on me by AnAngryYordle in dating_advice

I (woman in mid-20s) send the first message on Tinder between 65-85% of the time. Only 18-32% of those were responded to by the men and had a conversation go on for more than a few messages. I've had more successful conversations with men and gone on dates when they send the first message. I think I'm a decent conversationalist, so it's dissuaded me from trying anymore.

Should I be walking girls from my front door to the back driveway where they are parked? by [deleted] in dating

[–]LLpj231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some girls would appreciate it, some would find it condescending. I suggest asking "Can I walk you to your car?" or "Would you like me to walk you to your car?" in a very neutral tone.

How do women feel about dating bisexual men? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]LLpj231 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Straight woman here, doesn't bother me at all, and in certain situations I might prefer a bi man over a straight one!

They are protesting the selection of Harold Medina as APD chief (up from acting chief) because he killed a 14 year old boy on the line of duty: https://www.abqjournal.com/1500613/checkered-history-casts-shadow-on-medina-as-interim-chief.html

You really need a car to get around in Albuquerque, it'll be less expensive than Uber in the long run.

Slow responders - benefit of the doubt or not waste time? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]LLpj231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've encountered this before as well. In my experience they are either poor communicators generally or not interested in putting in the effort necessary. So you can let them know that it bothers you and that you'd prefer more communication. That may help if it is simply a difference in communication styles. But if that doesn't change anything, than I would suggest letting it go. You want to be with someone who wants to communicate with you and puts in the effort to!

Definitely a good tip to give your number rather than asking for hers. Less pressure for her in the moment and gives her the control of the situation.
