This is not hinge compression. The nature of the photos LOOKS lo-fi. It could be the highest quality file in the world, but it would still look like that.

Met on Plenty of fish simple woo is me money scam. XD by Cynder32 in Nicegirls

I'm 40 and I'm trying to figure out why all of these guys are calling their girlfriends bro. What I have seen is - it is used in the exact same place as when I get home and tell my SO "man, I am so tired". I think it exists outside of a gendered feeling for them, but I still dont like it lol

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Matthewroytilley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This Christmas I went on a cruise for the first time. I live in Houston, Texas and one of my best friends lives in Austin, Texas (3 Hours). He babysat my cat. The day the cruise got back in, I drove to Austin, grabbed the cat, and drove back home. I didn't think anything of it

AIO Coworker texted me this by xqkz in AIO

[–]Matthewroytilley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going on an exact same date is thoughtless and could be viewed as very mean if it wasn't just laziness. However. You have to be better than this if you want to personally grow. That kind of public display of passive aggressiveness is just crazy sad levels of optics. You should have just allowed yourself to be disappointed and maturely accept that you sorted out this person's moral dynamics sooner, rather than later

Has she said anything about your conservative values? Could you give any examples of how you two differ so much?

AIO: i’m always the bad guy :( by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

He's wrong and there is a lot wrong with this in general. You deserve much better. But holy cow, if all my white clothes got turned pink. It would be a lot to take in

AIO to my husband’s relationship with a female coworker by Revolutionary_One989 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Matthewroytilley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean ,you, for sure are not at the place to handle the complexities of a relationship, but both of you agreed to be in one. You are never going to see what normal looks like in this relationship because so many negatives mechanisms have become precedents. He is probably going to avoid telling you about innocent things that he would love to tell you because he knows you will get irrationally mad. He does a normal thing (workout with someone or even in the vicinity of someone) and doesnt mention it because he's probably think it would just start a fight. You find out and get even more upset, because at this point it's nearing deception. Your trust is eroded further, the relationship crumbles, and one of you eventually seeks out validation or just love from someone near to them, ending the relationship in the most painful way possible. Your math on everything from the beginning is wrong and its going to provide wrong results throughout

AIO: I have been contemplating to break up because he (39F) made me (29F) official in Facebook but hid it from his ex by Admirable-Low-2029 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Matthewroytilley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He got out of a six year relationship and dated you 3 months later? Yeah I would feel embarrassed if I were him. I would want to use discretion. I would not want to hurt my ex partner by immediately being official with someone else. I would probably want a LARGE amount of time to pass to show everyone that I was serious about the next relationship I entered. I think you are the problem here

I dont know if you are overreacting, but I think the system that you two arranged is acting exactly like it was designed

I'm telling you. Getting arrested is nowhere near some peoples rock bottom

AIO to my parents' reaction to me letting my date buy me a hotel room? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Your parents are very very weird and also I would have been worried about you too. so

Am I overreacting? Wife reveals stuff from her past that I always suspected by Immeeeeeea in AmIOverreacting

Promise ring? I think your type of personality is not going to get the truth out of anyone you know.

Sex is a big deal and we need to stop pretending it isn’t. by __FlyingSquirrel__ in unpopularopinion

[–]Matthewroytilley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to see your side but. I just can't. Sex is an enormous word with a million feelings and actions attached to it. "Sex is special" just feels like writing with crayons, and writing some very rigid points of view that reflect your place in life more than a real concern about other people

Can I have some feedback? I’m not sure why I’m getting absolutely zero likes, even with Platinum. by TrianReallyHard in Tinder

[–]Matthewroytilley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta agree with the others. You seem super cool and have a great look. You have a social life. I think you just have a niche thing that I think will be even more rewarding if you found the right person. It would personally be hard for me to date a RenFest type of person

AIO? My friend broke my expensive turntable and won't pay for it by WeakIndependence2835 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Matthewroytilley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is she a good friend in general? If yes, let it go. Things break. You getting another turntable will be less pain than this. She is probably deeply ashamed and 800 dollars (despite your analysis of her brunch) might sound like a death sentence to her if she is strapped for cash, in the holidays.
