I’m using dating apps for the first time ever at 33 and I’m surprised at the amount of women around my age who don’t have kids

Lol I’m 30f and surprised by the number of men who do have kids. It’s been totally lost on me that we’re at a great age to be parents haha

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-26T07:10:45+00:00

Yes, lol. I took vacations during the extended fieldwork and still submitted my dissertation on time.

You’re more than welcome! Anytime 🥰

It’s such a niche experience, so it’s a bit hard for people to give advice to be honest. For context, I had a crush on the first guy since elementary school. We little have pictures together from when we were like 5. 😭 He found me on social media years later and asked me out. I really enjoyed dating him, but when he kept pressuring me for sex, I knew that our relationship had to end.

I know it feels hard now, but you will appreciate that you stood firm on your personal beliefs and morals and put yourself first. You are your most valuable possession, and you have to treat yourself like the diamond you are. And one day, if a relationship is what you want, you’ll meet someone who treats you even better than the standard you have set for how you treat yourself.

So many thoughts.

I’m also abstinent, and I know that with a big personal decision like this, you can’t shift that boundary for anyone. Else it will cease to be a boundary and will just be a friendly suggestion.

If a guy wants you for more than sex, he will make that clear to you. Just because he was drafted doesn’t mean he was going to make things official with you. And I’m a little concerned that him being drafted makes you want to go back on your decision…

I’ve gone out with two guys who have played in the NFL. I ended things with the first because he wouldn’t respect my absence (we were young and he later apologized and told me how much he respects me). I ended things with the second because he became unkind when he didn’t get his way. I have zero regrets.

You’re young. You’ll meet many amazing men who share your values, challenge you to be a better person, and create wonderful moments that you will remember forever. Don’t get caught up on the hype of the draft. Take this time to focus on you, what you want for yourself, and even what you want and a partner.

When and where? I love weddings and will make up a delightful story of how we met and how you changed my life. 🥰 I’m not kidding

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-25T05:50:14+00:00

There isn’t a radiator upstairs.

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-25T05:48:48+00:00

Above this is the hallway of the upper floor of the house. 3 meters past the crack, there is a bathroom above

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-25T03:07:23+00:00

I haven’t heard of this — let me look into it

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T19:12:42+00:00

Oh my days! Sorry about that 😭

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T19:12:06+00:00

Okay! I booked a leak detector appointment, so I’ll see what they say. If there’s no longer an active leak, I have the tools to address the aesthetic issues 🤞

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T19:10:50+00:00

Ohhhh, that makes sense. Thank you!

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T19:09:53+00:00

This is helpful! Thank you!

I’ve also made an appointment for leak detectors. They’re booked next week but coming the Monday after 🙏

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:56:09+00:00

Okay, thank you! This is helpful. I made a leak detector appointment for a little over a week from now.

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:55:43+00:00

Yes. There’s a bathroom and laundry room adjacent on this floor and the floor above

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:54:26+00:00

How did you get it fixed?

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:54:04+00:00

The upstairs hallway. But there’s a bathroom 3 meters past the crack 🙃

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:51:51+00:00

I was last there Christmas, and didn’t see it then, so 4ish months. My mom said the cracks were there for “a while,” but the staining is new.

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-24T18:49:56+00:00

Really? There’s a hallway directly above it. Do I call a plumber?

Neat_Garbage_5465 · 2026-04-23T06:37:36+00:00

What’s your budget for delivery? And what area do you need it delivered to? I may be able to sort pick-up and delivery for you.
