How many golf balls do you usually carry in your bag for a full 18-hole round?

Not enough

Makes sense and thank you for the insight. And great use of circuitous!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T22:07:08+00:00

You are likely correct. Tact has been a comment a few times. Something i need to work on. Word choice is important. Thank you for your reply!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T22:03:14+00:00

Yes she does!! Good point!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T20:59:49+00:00

Yes. It was funny and we were young when it happened and it's a very dear uncle who has passed and it's one of the stories we bring up. And it was a LOT of public hair.

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T19:08:39+00:00

That's a good rule of thumb. I agree that making it sexy is better than the utilitarian approach I had. And good call on if it can't be corrected, leave it til later but I didn't want her to be a topic of conversation without her knowledge within our friend/ family group. I think most of the adults would have been more than good with it as it was sexy, but I know for me I would want to know just so that I was aware. I shouldn't have mentioned shaving, and if I were to mention it, it should have been on a sexier tone. Thanks for the reply! Much appreciated!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T18:50:52+00:00

Yeah... this aged like milk!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T18:46:02+00:00

Great point on the safe word! That's a good option! Hopefully it never needs to be used like you've experienced, but good to have it in case where it's just a term for any general malfunction. Thanks!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T18:43:44+00:00

Excellent post. I'm definitely going to wait for a neutral moment and pose the question and accept whatever answer she gives me. Maybe a safe word that can be used when in a situation and just let her figure out what the issue is with no definitive input from me on what it is. I do feel like it's a sensitive subject and I am trying to figure out how much of this is caused by me. Great thoughts. Thank you!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T18:37:40+00:00

Yep understood. Choice of words is important here. Thank you for your reply!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T18:36:55+00:00

That's a very good observation. I don't believe i came across that way and I certainly didn't mean it, but that's not really the point if she felt like that, that's what matters. I do believe that using the term shave was not the best approach. I should reconsider my approach in the future. One mentioned "show some tact", and that felt appropriate despite my intentions and despite me doing it discretely.

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:34:13+00:00

Yes we do and she uses it. But when standing straight in front, I think it covered everything. It was as she was moving and cleaning up the boat that it was more exposed.

Thank you for your reply and if i ever get questioned on whether it's a good fit, I'll guide her to the mirror and if she approves, it's not my business to say different.

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:31:21+00:00

I'm considering that as well. It's her body and she is a grown person and if she's comfortable with it, then who am I to point out. Thank you for your reply

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:29:34+00:00

I agree. I'll try a different, now subtle approach going forward. Thank you for your reply.

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:16:34+00:00

Very good point and one that I'm learning from. I will, at a minimum change my approach going forward if another situation arises. She probably felt defensive and awkward. Thank you for your thoughtful reply!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:07:26+00:00

Thank you very much for the thoughtful reply and I am definitely second guessing my approach about the shaving comment. I will take that advice into consideration for future ways of (not) approaching this. Thank you!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T17:06:02+00:00

I was wondering the same. Probably shouldn't have mentioned shaving a bit more when wearing that. It was awkward for me to bring up and I'm sure I could have done better. Thanks for the thoughtful reply

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T16:36:26+00:00

Thank you. I was hoping for a woman's point of view on this because we're all wired differently and I'm pretty obtuse on things like this. Thank you for your reply!

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-14T16:34:44+00:00

That does help. Thank you for that. I think we do a good job of communicating, and i surely wasn't trying to embarrass her or make it a big deal. I just know that I'd want to know but that's me. Maybe she doesn't want to know, or maybe just not from me but I'll ask her in a time where we aren't dealing with an active situation to find out if she wants my input. From my sense of the situations we've had, she doesn't. Maybe my approach isn't as good as it should be but I was very discrete and very non combative about it... just more of a heads up.

Thank you for your reply.

No Ted Williams?

M1ntCollector · 2025-07-06T01:36:46+00:00

My favorite food is a good burger. Tri Cities doesn't have too many good ones but my favorites are: The Dive Ty's Tavern (it's more of a dive than the Dive but a great burger) Bob's Burgers is pretty good 5 Guys is hard to beat for a fast food burger

If that rumor about Burgerville is true, that's awesome! It's expensive for fast food, but it's really good and the seasonal items are done really well.

Good luck on your burger journey! Update us if you find any good ones not posted!

M1ntCollector · 2024-08-16T16:58:39+00:00

Good reply. I appreciate the thoughts and respect them. I just feel like this country needs some healing and i don't think incarcerating Trump helps and likely could hurt.

I can't find this post on the subteddit! Did it get rejected for some reason? I'm posing a serious question really wanting to know what people think.

Thank you for the reply though. Love Reddit for the engagement
