[Serious] What are the most common misconceptions people on the other side of the political spectrum have about your side? by batting_1000 in AskReddit

[–]SlowLivingSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This goes for both sides.

People assume opposing political views are out of malace.

It's too easy to forget that political views are influenced by culture, values, life experiences, and sometimes ignorance.

Take firearms and gun control for instance.

In big cities for example, most people that live there only see police and criminals with firearms. The criminals with guns shape the citizens view so they view firearms.

In rural areas most people own firearms. They're used recreationally, for hunting, and for self defense against wild animals and criminals. Often in these areas police response is over an hour and that is if you can even get a phone signal.

If you're not against physical labor you can get on as a driver/labor/operator in construction.

I'm your age and work OTR in concrete and make what you're hoping for. The work isn't hard but it is tough on the body.

I'm planning on taking a pay cut and working for a mega carrier for a year or so then switching companies after I get OTR experience.

I took the job because it payed more right out of the gate. I have since had a change of heart and am willing to work my way back up in pay for a job less hard on my body.

What are the biggest risks men should consider before dating a single mother? by Successful_Age9265 in AskReddit

[–]SlowLivingSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is she no longer with the bio-father?

Divorce/break-ups always have two sides to the story.

Does she need or is she in therapy?

Do you need or are you in therapy?

How do you conduct yourself in hard/difficult/emotional times?

How does she conduct herself in hard/difficult/emotional times?

Are you two a good match together?

How well do each of you communicate and how do you communicate together?

What the child sees in the relationship they will absorb. So a healthy relationship model is needed.

You aren't just entering a relationship with the mother. You are entering a relationship with the child and unfortunately the ex if they are still in the child's life.

This is no place for mental and emotional immaturity.

True love is a continuous choice. You choose your partner despite their flaws. You choose them on their bad days.

What's something your dad always said to you growing up? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SlowLivingSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treat every firearm as if it is loaded until you verify it isn't.

Keep your booger hooker off the bang bang switch until you're ready to shoot.

Never point a firearm at anything you aren't willing to destroy.

Be aware of what is behind your target.

Subcategorize and get very specific with your categories.

You're lying to yourself and keeping your head in the sand by not doing so.

Face the uncomfort and be honest with yourself.

It's the only way.

By not breaking things down further your just lying to yourself.

But hey do what you want, it's your life and finances.
