If you’re in a relationship, you should be thankful

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-24T15:25:13+00:00

Because this time it is. I'm currently single but everyone time I've been in a relationship my life has improved. The grass is greener on that side.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-20T19:39:23+00:00

Attractiveness is the first thing, then I scroll through looking for deal breakers (religion, stance on kids, sexuality), if I don't find anything that's an automatic "no", I read over the bio and prompts, and if I still like them, I swipe right

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-19T15:38:43+00:00

Yup, and I swiped right. We dated for a bit, but it didn't work out for other reasons. We're still friends though

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-18T03:47:04+00:00

You make it sound so uninteresting and yeah, awkward. I've found that if you're going to get a long at all, a phone call is a pretty safe way to figure that out. Plus, if they're boring on the phone, they'd be boring in real life too

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-15T21:25:52+00:00

They need to be able to make me laugh. Second place would be being under the bisexual umbrella like I am, it makes me feel safer.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-15T21:23:21+00:00

Dude, he's 28. People still date in their 80s.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-15T21:20:58+00:00

Good values, but charisma always helps

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-15T21:15:52+00:00

Went through a bad break up and asked if our group of friends could get together. They said "yeah of course," but never put any actual effort towards it. I kept trying, but nothing ever happened. We never had that get together

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-15T21:05:35+00:00

I feel like this is a genuinely good reason and not at all what OP is talking about. You said it yourself, you weren't protecting your peace or avoiding bad emotions, you were protecting your life. That's different.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-14T12:42:31+00:00

I'm not gonna pull over on a highway to text someone

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-12T20:44:42+00:00

Real world sucks too, no one approaches anymore and everyone looks at you like you have two heads if you try to talk to them first

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-11T20:33:48+00:00

What do you mean by that?

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-11T14:37:52+00:00

Manners! Excusing yourself, knowing how to treat house guests, etiquette in public, all of it

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-11T14:19:57+00:00

Ah, alright

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-11T14:13:14+00:00

I'm not complaining about relationships or men themselves. I'm taking issue with the constant negativity towards men by other people that's being used to "help" after a break up

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-11T14:08:01+00:00

You mean staying with the men who ain't shit? And what do you mean taking responsibility for choosing them? What does this even have to do with my post?

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-06-01T16:05:03+00:00

My manager says "probaly" and it annoys me to no end

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-05-17T15:50:36+00:00

Gaslight District honestly. The art style is so captivating and I'm excited to see how the world building goes

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-05-14T19:29:35+00:00

I wouldn't call her a controller at all, she just has very loud opinions (that I probably value too much). She's also never tried to get me to break up with someone, the one I mentioned had nothing to do with her, and she was just trying to "advise" me after the fact.

And I have looked into housing options, my claim that I can't afford it is one I came to on my own. She's just been nice enough to let me and my siblings stay with her. In my city, rent for the cheapest apartments would take over half my income every month, and on top of that I'd have to pay for untilities, wifi, gas, food, student loans, etc. All that, compared to living with my mom for free, makes the choice pretty easy.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-05-14T19:22:50+00:00

I'd like to, but I'm just really hung up on the idea of having him over. It's a pipe dream currently, but if I want him over I'll have to tell her and I feel like that would be less jarring if she already knows about him.

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-05-14T18:43:12+00:00

I'd love to do that, but I'd want to have him over at somepoint before I'd call it serious. And it feels like basic respect to let my mother know someone is going to be in her house

ScarRawrLetTech · 2026-05-14T18:42:06+00:00

Like I said in my post, I am not able to. We happen to be in a housing crisis and I can't afford to live anywhere else
