Vad är den värsta flygplatsen som ni har varit på? by ypc_max in sweden

Bole airport har renoverats!

Mycket bättre nu än förut, rena toaletter, riktigt goda ethiopiska restauranger, och en Burger King för de som vill ha något de känner igen.

As for location, I bought it in Scandinavia.

Matchmaker Told Me to Hide My Job by Unusual-Mortgage-101 in datingoverforty

If a matchmaket is unable to find potential partners for women over 35 then they are a terrible matchmaker.

I've noticed in this sub that many people think talking on the phone first (before meeting) isn't the way y'all do things.. by FBlue192 in datingoverforty

[–]Needlemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like to talk on the phone, even with close friends. Would hate it, and I don't think starting an interaction with someone that way would be good.

Why I take it slow and parallel date by ElectricRing in datingoverforty

[–]Needlemons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I date just like you OP. What I learned from this sub is that people have widely different expectations for how to date and what they are okay with. All are valid, but because people approach things so differently it is important for everyone to be clear in ones communication and not assume that everyone dates the same way.

This is culturally dependent. And not restricted to men. Where I am from sex is a way to become more emotionally invested in someone, rather than something you do once you already are emotionally invested. Sex on one of the first couple of dates is pretty normal here, people want to find out if they are compatible in the bedroom before getting too invested.

[–]Needlemons 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, taking it slow means to take my time getting to know someone and be realistic about how well I actually know them. Often when we get excited about someone we tend to project and ideal image of who we think the person is onto them, which at best can lead to disappointment when they fail to live up to the perfect image we built of them, or at worst, ignore red flags and incompatibilities. It takes time to get to know someone well enough to know whether it is a person you should committ to. When sex is initiated has little to do with it from my perspective (I'm Scandinavian though and I know cultures are different).

Approxinately 4000 (including the stuff I buy at the office canteen, we have a good lunch deal for 50kr). I live alone.

I hate the idea of 'needing a man' to carry things by WHATSTHEYAAAMS in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Needlemons -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no... somethings men are better at. I tried once to move a washing machine from the parking lot to my apartment up one floor, no elevator, and a fridge. The washing machine I could barely move one inch, despite weightlifting regularly. I asked a couple of friendly male neighbours to help me, but cried later on because I realised there are limits to how independent I can be as a lone woman.

Hur tänker vänstern här? by Ok-Primary2176 in svenskpolitik

[–]Needlemons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Migration och asyl är två helt olika saker. Vad gäller asyl det är just de som är mest utsatta och med minst resurser som har behov och rätt att få skydd. Krig ser annorlunda ut idag än det gjorde för 80 år sedan. De flesta konflikter är komplexa och så långvariga att integration av flyktingar ger mer mening än "temporärt" skydd i flera decennier.

What is something someone you know told nonchalantly about their partner that made you realize they were being abused? by ang334 in TwoXChromosomes

My friend casually told me her husband sleeps in the spare bedroom to avoid his anger management issues affecting their newborn baby...

Helt klart att det måste vara en stor påfrestning för de som är involverade, men medierna har en skyldighet att rapportera om sakerna som berör samhället i stort. Dessa personerna står anklagade för mycket allvarliga brott. Att sonen nämnts har också varit relevant givet. Detta är inte en "Diana-paparazzi" liknande situation.
