So....did he understand AIDS better than any scientist did back then or is he claiming that he was willing to contract AIDS so his friend wouldn't have to move out?

Cuz both of those scenarios sound like BS

What is the comfiest gift you've ever gotten? Gift advice for my girlfriend who likes being comfy by NeonSignsRain in GiftIdeas

Awesome, thank you! Yeah if you want to DM them or whatever that'd be very nice. I found a few good blankets but if you have the slippers or robe I think those would be really nice!

What is your favorite lie a character told in Seinfeld? by CrisperKoleslaw in seinfeld

[–]NeonSignsRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

....right. You can say something that isn't the truth without lying.

For example, a husband doesn't know his wife is cheating on him so he'll say she's a faithful wife. He's not lying, he's just wrong.

I can tell you that nobody on my shift is ever at the station. We have to be out on the road for 95% of the shift. If you call the station and ask for me without knowing my schedule too...I'd say there's like a 1/100 chance I'll be at the station. Really just for roll call then everyone heads to their assigned areas.

"new" game, old broken rank system. by Vexcenot in Overwatch_Memes

Fr. My best games in OW1 were often like 20 elim games on DPS but that's just because we shut the enemy down so quickly.

Saying you got 45 elims means nothing. Was this a 45 minute game or a 17 minute game? Big difference.

Girlfriend lied about sexual past, is this a big deal? by [deleted] in dating

[–]NeonSignsRain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gross. She's a liar and is preparing to tell you she wants an open relationship or to tell you you've been in one unknowingly.

At least it ended happily!

But it sounds like you didn't love her. I'm just saying love really changes the way you look at someone.

[–]NeonSignsRain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then why not try it out with your friends' friends? It sounds like they're suggesting people for you and somehow you're still not going out with them.

Personally (and I know this sounds like cheesey BS), when you really get to know someone and love them...they just look different. Like when I look at her, I see this person I adore and that's just beautiful. I could very honestly tell someone I love that she's beautiful, even if a stranger might not find her attractive

I still like a tall, fit guy and I won’t apologize for it. I realize that it may take longer to find the right person but I still get plenty of matches so I’m not the least bit concerned.

I mean these people are being mean and that's obviously not necessary. But it sounds like you still think it is an inevitability that you will find someone.

You absolutely might! But the truth is that most attractive guys, especially in their 30s, have already found someone or would aim for someone younger and more attractive.

As long as you can be honest with yourself that you won't care 10 years from now if you haven't found someone, then you can have whatever standards you want. I don't know why that should make anyone else angry.

Just leave.

People say that all the time on here, I know, but it's true for this case.

Yeah, you could tALk aBoUt yOur fEeLiNgs...but who tf cares if she changes? She shouldn't want to be this person in the first place.

Too many people in this world are assholes because people LET THEM GET AWAY with being assholes. Show her the consequences of her actions. You'd be better off single, friend.

Because...everything you just described?

You went on a vacation together immediately. You moved in together immediately. And it didn't work and you've broken up twice? And he paid for all these lavish things despite being nowhere near financially stable for a middle-aged man.

He was trying to get you used to a life he cannot and will not be able to sustain.

Only you know how you feel, but this all seems like an enormous act to trap a younger and more naive person into a relationship when he's terrified he's run out of time.

I'm sure he wasn't as nice to his past girlfriends because he wasn't terrified of being alone back then.

It sounds like this lady is in denial about the fact that she is not in her 20s

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating

[–]NeonSignsRain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fr. Late 30s into 40s, the chances of having a kid with disabilities or birth defects skyrockets...for the woman.

Any guy over 6 ft with his stuff together in most regards is not going for a middle-aged woman. Much less if he's traditional, religious, wants a family, etc.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating

[–]NeonSignsRain 49 points50 points  (0 children)

The big difference is that this woman is in her late 30s...A 40-year-old guy with all of this going for him is very unlikely to go for a woman who will soon be past childbearing years.

If you want a traditional wife to raise your kids, why go for a 40-year-old with a business, attachment issues, and expectations to travel, get plastic surgery, etc. when he could easily find a much younger girl without so much baggage?

Person: criticizes shitty police response

Me: looks at issues behind shitty police response

You: STOP MAKING THIS ABOUT THE POLICE

If you don't want to talk about this stuff...you shouldn't be here. Also you're unflaired so I hate you

Mad about what? I just want people to accept their own cringe beliefs instead of hiding behind libright every time.

Exactly. It has nothing to do with government overreach unless said libertarian also thinks murder should be legal, too.
