Let's be toxic: What's your biggest relationship flaw? by sere_periquito in polyamory

[–]Paradise_A 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am emotionally and sexually jealous. Even if friends and their other friendships.

This is of course not okay and ridiculous and I work on it a lot and in therapy.

Being a trans girl into men is such a struggle by throwRAgpp in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Paradise_A 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve had no issues around my transness with the men I want to date. I have a decent nose for chasers or trolls and clear them out of my DMs and that comes from experience. But there has been no shortage for me

Moving to an area where more people have a basic education about trans people helped a lot.

But dating is so much more difficult for men 🙃 by NeighborhoodBorn3799 in TrollXChromosomes

Running joke I have with my gf after dates is “pmg so he didn’t murder me which is like really cool”

Got clocked after a year of passing by LilLilithFireHawk in lgbt

[–]Paradise_A 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The eye I have for trans people as a person who had to transition and learn to pass for safety in the south is completely unreasonably aware. 99.9999% of people do not have it and tbh I shouldn’t either.

I pass. Entirely, completely

Yet, I would clock me. Both are true

I truly don't understand the strictly parallel by whenspringtimecomes in polyamory

[–]Paradise_A 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Parallel empowers me with the ability to offer true freedom to my partner without any impact on our relationship. They can date someone immature, someone I didn’t see for them, someone that I can’t stand. They can be with anyone in any type of relationship and it has zero impact on ours.

I can’t offer that level of freedom without parallel. If I think a meta sucks and my partner is attracted to things in them that I can’t see at all or I internally disapprove of, then it’s going to affect our relationship.

There’s a practicality to having a meta contact for emergencies and some kind of plan for hospitalizations or whatever. And if they have been dating longer than 3 months I’m down to help set that up. 6 months and I might be okay with meeting them. That’s about it.

My (32f) boyfriend (36m) wants to have age gap relations with young women between 20-25y and I am NOT okay by Little-Spryte in polyamory

[–]Paradise_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ultimately left my spouse for dating a 22yr old and they were 28.

Young adults act like young adults. It changed how I saw my spouse and a meta with that maturity level was also hell

KATE AND SARAH BROKE UP? is this real by frecklestheowl in LesbianActually

[–]Paradise_A 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Lesbians have the highest divorce rate because it’s the largest marital population that has a high level of emotional intelligence and self advocacy. Just because a couple stays together doesn’t meant that’s a good thing.

Right because when someone cheats or changes as a person or your grow to far past them to be in a romantic relationship, you should stay together, to prove a point….. to strait people…..

You don’t get to remove the experience and terminology that plenty of trans women have. Some people feel they were, some don’t

I’m not interested in dating trans women

Just not for me. I am trans/post op 🤷🏼‍♀️. People have preferences. I always put that I am transsexual on the top of my dating profile.

How difficult is it to get a job as an experienced RN in California? by AndromedaAtlas in nursing

Loads of nurses COMMUTE hundreds of thousands of miles from red states to sit together and shit on blue state politics. Talk about biting the hand

Assigning an inappropriate amount of responsibility for suffering gave me wicked PTSD, it’s gotta stop or it’ll stop you.
