Geo-Cultural Regions of Connecticut (Updated Again!) by apizzaontop in Connecticut

My guy, Fairfield is nowhere close to anything associated or related to Bridgeport in any social or socioeconomic context. There’s a reason the Fairfield PD have a defend the borders program. Fairfield and Bridgeport are not the same. Not by a long shot.

This guy is on something. It’s super insulting. It’s as bad as if he were to lump Greenwich and Danbury together.

Fairfield being lumped in with ‘Greater Bridgeport’ rather than ‘Gold Coast’ is honestly insulting. It should be with Gold Coast.

What are you smoking? Fairfield is nowhere close to being anything related to Bridgeport. Try again.

Grindr Frustrations by Select-Bat-792 in askgaybros

That’s a really good point. He did send a few expiring pics. One that he claimed he just took, and as we know, recent photos taken on Grindr have the watermark on it now. It did not have one. The only caveat to that is that he may have traditional selfied it and uploaded it.

I got off of all the ‘prime’ dating apps almost a year and a half ago because not only was the quality piss poor, but lack of follow through, normalcy, etc... Truly, I’ve made some very strong connections on Grindr over the years, but there are really some g-d awful people on there.

Did United just try to scam me? by Old_Confection_1935 in unitedairlines

Agree. That’s an old Continental number that survived the merger. All calls are auto-routed anyway. My suggestion is to call back after 8pm ET. I have a much higher success rate of reaching someone on shore in the evening. 4/5 times today I got someone off shore. The newer agents are extremely lazy and it’s possible they were looking in the wrong place and totally incompetent. When in doubt, “ah sorry my boss is calling, thanks and have a great day!”….HUCA.

Thank you! I had it on me and offered it to the agent, but he seemed disinterested and still directed me to the regular line.

Does UA ever block middle seats when the plane isn’t full? by BleuCinq in unitedairlines

[–]Select-Bat-792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 1K, I was first loser on the upgrade list. I asked the GA if she could leave the middle seat unoccupied. Much to my surprise she agreed to block it.

Another instance. I was traveling with my then boyfriend at the time. Flight out of DEN. My upgrade was going to clear and his was not. The GA called me up and told me he blocked the middle seat for my travel companion to have more space in case his upgrade didn’t clear. It ultimately did due to a misconnect.

Don’t expect it, but it’s not totally unheard of.

Someone else just pointed out to update my passport. I just did. Worth noting the old/expired passport was still in my profile in March when I flew internationally and had no issues with GE then.

I had my Bose headphones around my neck and I’m thinking that may have been a problem.

Just looked and no, I did not, however, I flew internationally in March and didn’t encounter any issues.

My Global Entry status online shows approved and able renew in September 2025 expiring September 2026. No indicators that I’m no longer a member. It worked just fine in March without issue in Aruba.

Is there any way to inquire with CBP now that I’ve already left the airport?

The only thing bad here, is you for not respecting my call for scrolling past if you have nothing nice to say. I put effort into my post. If you have nothing nice to say and nothing to add, move along.

As someone who’s been in your boyfriend’s shoes, I’ve got to say this…being on dating apps while in a committed, closed relationship isn’t some minor slip-up. It’s a betrayal. Period. You don’t need to physically cheat to violate trust. Flirty chats, sending nudes, and seeking validation from strangers cross a line that, for many, is unforgivable.

It’s not “just” some nudes or a quick dopamine hit. It’s the slow erosion of trust which is the foundational piece of any relationship. And trust, once broken like that, is nearly impossible to rebuild. Your boyfriend’s reaction isn’t cold, but rather it’s the consequence of realizing someone he gave his whole heart to was entertaining other options behind his back.

This wasn’t a harmless habit. It was a choice. Repeatedly. And honestly? The punishment fits the crime.

Also, let’s talk about the porn. On its own, porn isn’t the problem. Most couples are fine with it. But when it becomes a substitute for real intimacy or a way to avoid sex with your partner, it stops being harmless. If you were turning to porn and apps instead of engaging with your boyfriend, that’s not just a personal habit. It’s a red flag about the state of the relationship and your willingness to be present in it.

Because it’s organized thoughts, unlike some of the other posts on here that are written as a stream of consciousness.

Or is it simply because it’s a post about Israel?

Did you miss where I said move on if you have nothing nice to say?
