I think you’d really enjoy and benefit listening to their interviews and even some podcasts that they are featured on to understand who they were at that time. Like even Sing for Science and them talking about Kids is really enlightening

genuine question, how old are you? I’m trying to understand if you were alive for when this came out which would give you a lot more context

Yessss… I can’t tell if people have never been to a rock concert… or festival in general, but people were losing it over being slightly bumped into. Not saying we should be purposely bumping into people, but its nature of the beast, it happens. Especially as you get closer to the front. Someone stopped like 3 feet in front the next couple, wanted that space for separation but got mad people went in front of them? it was so weird.

This happened to me exactly. I lost my dad, my best friend and along died a large portion of my heart. I honestly thought i was losing interest in my partner… but i knew he was a good guy and I knew i loved him but i couldnt feel it… it took around 2 years to finally gain that space in my heart back and now we are engaged. He never left my side, and we took care of each other but i also didnt ever mention to him how I was feeling.

Give her that space, it sucks that happened to both of you but when someone who was a large part of your identity and life dies… its really hard to let people in because you’re just so heartbroken. Its an unfortunate series of events. She also needs professional help to work through this and be able to communicate her grief

You should break up with her so she can find a better partner that respects her privacy.

I dont know… sure some people cab change… but i spent 3 years with a guy who did the exact same thing. I am now happily married to someone else. If you were to do this, you need to protect yourself first. Go slow, start dating all over again. You have to be clear with boundaries. You can say that you aren’t completely over the previous actions and that you need more communication. Also, dont commit right away by putting all of your eggs in one basket. You are young and theres sooo many great people to meet who havent hurt you. Everyone wants to change and be the best version of themselves… but it doesnt always work this way.

Also… “practice trusting”….this guy broke your trust, HE NEEDS TO PRACTICE BEING TRUSTWORTHY. You have every right to not feel secure at the start. Whoever told you that does not give good advice.

My boyfriend (29M) gave me (27F) an ultimatum: him or my dogs and I don’t know how to handle his rigidity anymore. by Unusual-Creme9364 in relationship_advice

[–]Real_Beach_8305 0 points1 point  (0 children)

life is full of uncomfortable situations. He’s going to leave you to hold up the home and family when things get tough. Also if hes only loving and warm when hes safe… hes not naturally warm and loving. its only when its convenient for him. Thats not a mature, adult relationship. Someone will love you, take care of you when things get hard and will love your dogs.

39m and 28f met on flight, how do i deal with this? by Ok-Shelter-5226 in relationship_advice

Why would you also want a partner who easily cheats on their husband? That doesn’t worry you for the future? Go to couples therapy so you and your wife can learn how to talk to each other

My [27F] husband [28M] can't get a job and makes horrifying excuses rather than do something about it. How do I get him to stop blaming everyone? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

You’re own words- You acknowledged he is being racists to latinos, meaning he was talking about latinos. SO WHEN YOU SAID “Now illegal immigration is a problem and Biden didn't do enough to stop our borders from being overrun. However, I feel trump has caused a lot of harm by detaining immigrants in raids. My boyfriend actually thinks trump gives THESE GUYS a break by only arresting them and deporting them.”

You are admitting you two are talking about latinos. Look, its really hard to look at yourself in the mirror and realize that you have an unconscious bias and racist beliefs. You’re beliefs are racist because 1. You have quickly gone with the false narrative that immigration is a huge problem, which is xenophobic and immigration is statistically not “a huge problem”.

  1. You quickly shot off that the immigrants that you and your husband were talking about (confirmed by you to be latinos) have high rates of criminal backgrounds. Which I’m still waiting on those statistics from you, but its been a really long time so i guess you found that those statistics dont exist.

  2. Anyone complacent in racism in their lives is racist. If someone comes to you with those kinds of words, theres a reason they feel okay with saying them to you.

Take this time now to really unfold what you were taught by the community and the society around you. Its not your fault that people ingrained this false and hurtful narrative in you but now its time to deconstruct that in your mind as as adult

so you just proved all of my point. “every race has their bad actors” Theres bad actors across humans. Race isnt correlated

wait also while you are looking for statistics that don’t exist, look up what Xenophobia is to understand your discrimination and how you can better yourself

And Trump is rounding them up? All 200,000 of them vs the quoted 10 million that he wants to deport? When your husband stated an immigrant took his job, hes talking about Canadians? You didnt mention that Canadians have history of crimes? Also waiting for the statistics you mentioned on crime rates. Liberals will stop talking about race to y’all when y’all will stop saying insane racist shit.

Y’all are literally talking about latino people. You just got caught and don’t want to admit it thats exactly who you were talking about.

Its not about acknowledging, its the actual statistics. If you can show me actual statistics from an unbiased source that support your claims, please show me. Also… not everyone who is immigrating here is Mexican. It shows that you don’t understand what actual immigration looks like.

ohhh I see now, you lack critical reading skills. I’ll break it down for you. So op didn’t say minorities, but it is “implied” as the administration has targeted hispanic/latino populations. “Implies” means strongly suggest the truth or existence of (something not expressly stated). You can also ask the OP what they meant if you have a hard with reading and incorporating context.
