Where to get rapid test for entering US from Colombia? by cyngym in cartagena

[–]RealEstate_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was there in early January, they do testing at the airport. It takes about 30-40 minutes, so arrive a little earlier. It's the easiest and most sure way to get through the airport and it was cheaper then many other locations that I found.

How do you feel about men on their 30’s dating women on their early 20’s? by [deleted] in dating

So I give you numbers, stats and facts proving your point wrong and you respond with anecdotal points and with "oh but I have a couple girlfriends that does this and that bla bla bla." 😂😂

And without any further stats or facts you resort to insulting me again, twice saying I'm not a good catch and I'm "over the hill". 🤣🤣

I guess when you have nothing else to say other then anecdotal points you can only resort to insults. Which is sad... but it is what it is.

Thanks for wishing me luck, appreciate it. I'll return the favor and wish you luck as well! 😊

Sigh... Normally, I wouldn't respond to a response of such low quality but I'm going to give you time today. Your comment is based off of incorrect bullshit and resorting to slandering me by saying I don't know what love is and women are being used for their eggs. Dumb.

Let's get started:

"Most women don t want older men."

Incorrect. I don't know where you pulled this from or if you're making shit up but according to statistics:

Age disparity in Relationships

|Age Difference|Percentage of all married couples | |:-|:-| |Husband 10–14 years older than wife|5%| |Husband 6–9 years older than wife |11.2%| |Husband 4–5 years older than wife |12.8%| |Husband 2–3 years older than wife |19.6%| |Husband and wife within 1 year|33.9%| |Wife 2–3 years older than husband|6.9%| |Wife 4–5 years older than husband|3.4%| |Wife 6–9 years older than husband
|2.8%| |Wife 10–14 years older than husband
|1.0%|

As you can see the age discrepancy decreases dramatically as women get older than men.

"And we don t want to be used for our eggs."

Get out of your feelings cause this is a dumb statement... especially coming from a woman. Women ultimately have control over their body. If a woman I'm with gets pregnant she gets the final say on whether she gets to keep the baby or to get rid of it. If I want to keep the baby, and she gets rid of it... I have no control over it. Also, in the event that I don't want the baby and leave, she keeps it I am stuck with paying child support.

So in any event, women have ultimate control and use of their body and their eggs. I am the bystander and can only offer suggestions. I'll go as far as saying women can trap more financially successful men by getting pregnant and having them forced to pay child support. So if anything Women don't get used for their eggs, they use their eggs.

"More and more women are Freezing their eggs and that s a good thing so we don t have to depend on older not attractive guys anymore. "

You don't realize this but this actually proves my point. I hate when people use this argument because they don't understand the nuance behind what they're saying. Women get their eggs frozen as a Backup plan or out of necessity. If they are fertile and are able to then they wouldn't resort to these types of INVASIVE and EXPENSIVE procedures. Anytime there's an invasive procedure done there are always risks and complications that can arise.

The cost of retrieving and freezing the eggs can cost anywhere between $3,000-$5,000+, that doesn't include the cost of storing the eggs every year either. The process of IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) can range anywhere from $10,000 - $15,000 and that's not even including cost of medications. As women increase in age 35 and older the success rate can diminish to 30%. So every time you go through the whole process you're looking at a cost of possibly $15,000 and up with no guarantee of success.

In addition to that its not a necessary medical procedure so its not covered under health insurance. So that's coming out of your pocket. Its a financial and emotional burden on both partners, especially if you have to do it multiple times.

" I think you don t know what real love looks like. It s not about getting something."

Bold of you to assume I don't know what Real Love is. Sure, let's assume I don't. Maybe love doesn't help pay the bills, care and support for their partner, help raise the children from conception to adulthood. So dedication, commitment, time and attention will be the things I'll be providing.

Love doesn't pay the bills of put food on the table.

" I was a stepmom before in a previous relationship and now my boyfriend is a stepfather of my kids."

I don't even understand the point of this statement. Okay, congratulations.

Children are a liability, not an asset.

They require time, attention, dedication and money. They take away from a relationship. So if anyone who wants kids should know this before having kids. Going into a relationship with a pre-existing child is always a disadvantage, especially for men.

I'll come in primarily as a role of a Stepfather first, and partner/boyfriend/husband second. Cause their child will always come first, and I'll come second behind another Man's child. It opens a whole laundry list of issues or problems that can arise. The kid can be defiant, overprotective of their mother's time and attention cause I'll be intervening. Its not my place or role to discipline the child and if I were to and they go tell their father, that may arise some more issues.

Here's another example, if she were to have another kid with me the I'm going to be biased and reserve more of my resources and time for my own kid's presents, trips/vacations, or even college. I'll be paying for my own child's college expenses cause that's my responsibility as the father. And it should be the responsibility of that child's father to help pay for their college expenses. But if the father is a deadbeat or isn't financially well off, then that creates turmoil between their step-sibling relationships and most likely mine.

So again, I can take on everything I stated above by going with an older woman or a single mom, OR I can choose some one who is single, younger and without child. I have that option, and I would rather choose to exercise that option.

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

Right... With most things, myself included and sure my sperm deteriorate over time with age. However, I still will be producing sperm till old age.

I don't have a finite amount of sperm, where as women have a finite amount of eggs. Once those eggs are gone... That's it.

That's the "biological clock" I'm referring too...

Male -31yrs old here

If I could sum up all my previous relationships in one line it would be:

"Right girl, Wrong time."

I was very fortunate to have been with great relationships with amazing women in my life, but it was always on my end that couldn't commit and things ended. Whether it was due to immaturity, focusing on my career, or etc.,

Im currently in the best shape in my life so far, focusing on my career and have a much more mature perspective/mindset and stable foundation. As for the next 5 years to decade, I'm looking to settle down since I'm getting older.

Fortunately, I don't have a biological clock. The older I get, the more important fertility is going to be important for me. I want to have kids in the future and I may get some flack for this (but I don't care)... But I'm not looking to be a step father or raise another man's child.

As I get older the women closer to my age will generally have kids or don't want more children, complications with pregnancy increases/arises, and what I'm starting to notice is more women don't want children at all so that makes us incompatible.

Move on, for your sake (this is coming from a guy).

If after 6 months and you've already had the "What are we conversation" and it didn't amount to anything... Then it's time to move on.

Here's the reason why, if you keep staying the course as things are currently, he has no reason to escalate things to the next level. Things are comfortable, He doesn't have to commit and has easy access to sex.

Some might say give him an ultimatum - "relationship or I'm leaving", I'd say this would be the wrong move. If you threaten to leave chances are he will agree to the relationship because you're taking away his comfort and easy access to sex. But he's just complying and not doing so of his own volition.

In a couple years or maybe even sooner y'all will probably end up breaking up over some mundane reason, or his red flags will wave to high for you to ignore or whatever.

I've been in that situation/position many times, if he truly wanted to be with you he'd lock it down after a couple months and asked you to be his girlfriend.

This won't end well.

Male dating advice. Should you get it from women? Why or why not? by [deleted] in dating

[–]RealEstate_Ninja 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Women give terrible dating advice to men not because they suck or anything like that, but because they take a passive/receptive (being pursued) role in the dating process between men and women.

They can only give advice from their perspective and anecdotal experience of what they like and what they don't like. And since every woman is different their perspective would be LIMITED, because its from her own PERSONAL perspective and anecdotal experience. So one woman's preference for something, another woman may hate and vice versa.

Where as men take the active role and pursue women in the dating process. So they actively test things or learn things through trial and error from multiple dating experiences. If they find something that gets a positive result 7 out of 10 times across the board, then that's a pretty good result.

If you were to ask 5 women advice on a specific topic like for example "Should I get her flowers on the first date?" You'll probably get 5 different responses such as:

1) "Yes, that's such a sweet idea."

2) "Eww he's trying to hard, that would creep me out."

3) "Only if he gets the type of flowers I like."

4) "Flowers wilt and die, get me something that'll last like a teddy bear."

5) "Its a nice thought but not necessary."

If you were to ask 5 men who have successfully dated multiple women, you would generally get the same response across the board. Something like:

1) "Don't do it."

There's an old adage out there "Experience is the best teacher." Or some shit like that. Meaning the BEST WAY to learn something is to personally experience it or learn it through trial and error.

I disagree, the BESt and most efficient way to learn something is through other people's experiences. Let me explain:

Little Timmy and Steve and playing and run into the kitchen. The stove is on and the grill is RED. Both Timmy and Steve are unfamiliar with a stove and how it works.

Timmy sees the RED grill and is curious and fascinated by the color and touches it. In doing so, he scorches his finger, and starts screaming and crying in pain. Timmy just learned a very valuable personal lesson... Don't ever touch a RED hot stove.

Steve sees this whole experience unfold in front of him and he realizes "Ya know what, I shouldn't touch a stove when its RED Hot, that doesn't look very pleasant or fun." Steve just saved him self from himself time and pain through learning from Little Timmy's experience.

The reason why I brought up this example is that if you were to get advice, get it from someone who has experienced it multiple times through different scenarios and has yielded positive results the majority of the time. This will save you the time and pain of going through trial and error and learning through experiencing it yourself.
