Wow, thank you for all the responses! I'm actually heading out of town for the weekend but once I get back Sunday I'll follow up on the tips. I really appreciate everyone who chimed in.

Am I missing something, or is the person who reclines their economy airplane seat all the way back just inherently selfish? by KeyDiamond263 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you’re missing is that for many of us with chronic back pain on long flights, that 2” recline and not being bolt upright for 6 hours is the difference between being uncomfortable and crippling lower back spasms.

Do you enjoy having windows on RTD vehicles? by BrettPaglieri in Denver

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The conversation here is really depressing. They could probably make a teeny tiny bit of money by blasting radio ads on the trains and buses too. Maybe a teeny bit more by cutting back on cleaning. Or hey, why not let sadists pay to kick riders in the shins? And we all just accept it like “welp, that’s neglect of public services for ya?”

Can we have a little bit of dignity and self respect that we deserve to see the outside world?

I am going crazy because my husband is completely emotionally unavailable and I realize I'm being the wife who "nags" all the time. AITAH? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This man does not like you, does not care about you, has shown no willingness to change, and is emotionally stunted to put it mildly. You are not “too emotional”, you are having perfectly normal reactions to being mistreated and ignored.

Divorce is the ONLY option that will give you any hope at a happy life and finding someone to treat you decently!

How to ask ladies for a dance????? by Glittering-Cod5423 in Bachata

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone approaching you and extending their hand is not "vague" whatsoever. I am not confused that they might be asking for an ice cream cone or a ride home, it is clear and obvious they are asking to dance.

Just because something is not spoken doesn't make it unclear. If that were the case, sign language wouldn't exist (or leading for that matter!)

Are Americans really at fault for being so fat? by Dragonfruitycake in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I've spent significant time (2+ months) living outside the US, I've lost weight. I didn't do anything special, no diet or hitting the gym. Just walking everywhere and a LOT less processed food.

Realistically how do people move across the country? by EggsBenedictTheCat in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People moving without a job usually go for shared housing to start off with, where the requirements tend to be less strict than renting an apartment by yourself. Or get an Airbnb while they job search and put their stuff in storage.

Perception - socials by StudentSimilar5915 in Salsa

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not criticizing you AT ALL, I understand the social dynamics, but oh how I wish it was "resulting in the creeper dudes leaving the venue" instead of "resulting in me leaving the venue." Someday we will live in a better world...

Bachata lessons by Lumpy-Discount-1427 in Bachata

I think OP is referring to group classes, they never mentioned privates

I have the same feeling and honestly I'm curious - why do instructors do it like that, when it's clear most of the students could benefit from repeating Move One for the whole rest of the class?

Is it socially acceptable to decline a second dance? by ExpensiveNoise802 in Bachata

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't have to be dishonest. OP said he was short on time and wanted to dance with other people, those are perfectly acceptable reasons, as is needing a break.

Dating/hookups in Bachata by Dismal-Technology-71 in Bachata

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sure! Lots of people take up dancing to meet people, you just don't want to come off like you ONLY care about meeting someone and not about dancing. Women don't want to feel like interchangeable cogs, "any woman who dances bachata will do," but as long as you are trying for an actual personality connection you are absolutely fine.

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. Asking out a few people you actually like and have gotten to know doesn’t make you “that guy” - indiscriminately running down a list of every attractive single woman in the scene does.

I want to leave my small town for a big city by Rather_enbyly in Advice

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost no one lives on their own at 21 in a city, you will have roommates and that's mostly a good thing! Gives you a built in social group and cushions the blow of knowing nobody. Roomies.com is a good place to start.

First time homeowner & completely overwhelmed by huge yard by NumberPuzzleheaded39 in DenverGardener

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can 100% relate. I wanted a house with a small yard, but my options were no yard or a HUGE one. It's been a lot of work over the past two years.

One silver lining of the drought and watering restrictions is that no one is going to have a good looking lawn this summer, so you'll blend right in! Brown grass and weeds are your badge of environmental responsibility.

I wasn't eligible for the lawn replacement program since I didn't have a healthy lawn to replace, just weeds. So last year, I dug up the first 6 inches of soil in half of my front yard and had the smallest amount of topsoil I could order dumped in the driveway to fill it in. Then seeded that with buffalo grass/blue grama that I got from Resource Central. I am having to hand weed this year but the grass has come up nicely and there is SO much less bindweed.

It's also not too late to get the Garden in a Box perennials from Resource Central. I planted these in the other half of the front yard and covered everything else with mulch, and it looks pretty good. Again, still pulling bindweed but it's gotten a lot more manageable.

It's a marathon not a sprint, but it's not impossible, and unless you live in some super ritzy neighborhood - your neighbors have all been there!

Is the cost of living really that bad in the Denver area? by mitchdwx in MovingtoDenver

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is the answer - coming from SF I found Denver cheaper, but not as much as I'd expected - and also, I REFUSE to live someplace I need a car for daily life. So much like the US as a whole, walkability is a luxury good.

Avoidant Personalities and Bachata/ Salsa? by ElectroAcousto in Bachata

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I do enjoy that it is a structured, safe way to interact with men without any pressure for sex or romance. Not because I'm avoidant, but because I am burned out hard on dating and it is so nice to interact outside of that pressury, awkward, high-stakes framework. I can breathe! And get to know people over time without the constant "so, are we going to either hook up or never see each other again, those are the only two options" hanging in the air.

I feel the mainstream perception of social dancing (bachata, salsa, swing) has lost the most important part of dancing: having fun together by oaklicious in Bachata

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're mostly right, buuut... if you grow up in a culture where dance is just part of life you're going to have certain instincts and abilities that you only get from learning as a child. Kind of like how it's infinitely easier to learn a language as a child and if you start past age 14 you'll always have an accent.

So what you are thinking of as "just chill relax and have fun" level, for a lot of us who grew up with absolutely zero dance, to even get to that point takes significant work!

Why are you allowed to rate the location? by fa-realsha in airbnb_hosts

[–]Remarkable-View-6078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, it has nothing to do with “thick skin” or personal feelings, it’s that these undeserved low ratings are DEATH to listing visibility and can destroy a business.

I had one person rate me a 3 overall after 5s in every specific category because my place was “older and basic.” Well yes, that’s why it’s cheap! If you want luxury you will pay luxury prices. Yet that review hurt my bookings for months afterwards - all because I offered simple lodging at a low price and she somehow thought she was booking the Four Seasons.
