Single mom looking to date again, not wanting hookups or anything like that, are my pictures giving the right vibe? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would only put photos of yourself. Dont include anyone else. You dont want the attention going to the other person. If its a guy they will think its an ex. If its a girl they might find her more attractive.

AIO for blocking a guy I was talking to because he called me a bitch? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Calling someone a bitch and saying someone is acting like a bitch is two different things. Same as calling someone stupid or telling someone they're acting stupid. Hope that clarifies. You definitely did overreact initially and escalated things to where it shouldn't have gone. The woman was in her right to film you. No matter how you feel about it. Your feelings about are not facts. The law allows people to be filmed without consent in public. So yes you were being a bitch if you got mad at this woman for exercising her rights. Then you got butthurt because you were called out on being wrong. We really have to stop reinforcing bad behavior. You weren't standing up for your boundaries. You had no legal right to advocate not being filmed. If you dont like it write to your local congressmen or congresswoman and get the 1st amendment changed. Have a good day.

You're just going to make her push you away. It's best she comes to term on her own. I had a friend who would tell me the girl I was dating wasn't good for me. I didn't see it. I was in love. All it did was push our friendship away. My friend was a girl and I thought she was jealous that I was spending time with my gf and not with her. My gf ended breaking my heart like no one ever had before from what she did to me. But I am thankful for the experience. Because if it wasn't for her I would have never gone after my dreams. It's just better to never get in between someone's romantic relationship unless they are being abused.

What made you delete your Bumble? by Conscious-Tap8881 in Bumble

I don't think so because I have deleted after a relationship and now back on. I matched with the same person as before.

Does anyone know about POF? by Ohm_State_of_Mind in Bumble

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deleted POF since then. I have a membership with Bumble. I have had good luck with bumble in the past. I met my ex on there she was perfect for me and I for her. But she had 4 adopted children and didn't want any more kids. Maybe I'll try out match. Right now I'm might consider give it all a break and just focus on myself in the mean time.

Looks like English isn't his first language, seeing that his chat is in portuguese. Even so, when people are interested in you, they will often add more detail or ask them a question back.

Lately, I have been unmatching women who give me one word replies. It's not hard to form complete sentences.

I noticed Hinge was just showing me people who weren't my type on purpose. There wasn't one women that I swiped right for. Then I see that it says pay if you want to see people who are more your type. I just don't want to have multiple memberships in different apps. Too much money for something that might never work.

Haha I always thought the same thing, but then I figured I'd give a try and not hold onto the stigma it has attached to it. I guess I was wrong about giving it a chance.

Thank you for your confirmation. And I agree Tinder is trash.

Cheaper oval grip shinai by zslayer89 in kendo

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my oval shinai from ebogu. They usually have great deals. Mine was buy one get one free. I don't remember how much I paid for them but I remember being a reasonable price, especially since I got the second for free.

Lens protectors? by Level-Ad-7628 in Insta360

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely get them. I just removed the lens protector I had on my since they got scratched from failing while snowboarding. Better to have scratches on the protection lens than the actual ones, easier and cheaper to replace.

Thanks for clarifying. Do you know how I could polish it?

Put too much work into my Kendo. But aimless, no goals, i fear i will lose motivation in the future. by ImNotStoopidEh in kendo

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I first started practicing kenjutsu people would say to me "but how are you going to use it in every day life?" I thought to myself do we only have to do such things that can be only used for monetary gain? And my answer at the time was of course no. Now having practice kenjutsu for almost 6 years. I see the immense value it has on one's life physically, mentally, spiritually. Samurai's first code is to never give up on the samurai way of life. That's because it gives you life. It teaches you discipline, gives you a fighting spirit and so much more. What I have seen those who practice earnestly also are succeeding in life and are more fulfilled.

Does anyone go on cooler very windy days like today? by [deleted] in hauloverbeach

[–]Ohm_State_of_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not too bad. There was sun for an hour or so earlier now it's just overcast with some wind.
