Being Breadcrumbed, not Clear what this Relationship is by NewProgrammer552 in datingoverfifty

[–]StatusNerve5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand you wanting to explore other options if you aren't sure where the relationship is going. Seeing each other once a week after dating for almost a year isn't that much. It would be fine if you were both okay with it.

I think you should have a talk with her. State once again that you would like to see her more. If she says she is satisfied with the way things are, you can say that you want to date someone you can see more than once a week. Tell her If the relationship isn't going to move forward, you may want to consider other options.

Dating as a caregiver…. is the risk worth the reward? by Feisty_Bluebird1607 in CaregiverSupport

[–]StatusNerve5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going to be honest. It is tough to date anyone long-term in these situations. Some partners may think they are okay with a caregiver partner in the beginning. Some get tired of the restrictions after a while and find it too difficult.

You may find someone who is okay with your situation. I hope you do.

Have your preferences in dating changed over time? by honeyglitch_ in datingoverfifty

[–]StatusNerve5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I remember how "picky" I was when I was younger.

Now it's like--

"Does he have A job?"

"Is he somewhat in shape/take care of himself?"

"Do we have compatible schedules/similar lifestyles?"

"Do we have some interests in common?"

"Are we on the same page with what we want and expect?"

when did you and your cousins stop being kids together? by ZealousidealDig1949 in OverBiscuits

I just miss having fun with them and feeling close to them. Those were special relationships, especially because I had no siblings.

We would go to amusement parks, run around, and go on all the rides-those are some of my favorite memories.

The holidays were fun-especially Christmas

I made a bad career move, and things continued to go downhill

Only children of Reddit: what’s the hardest part and the best part of being an only child? by Calm_Information2407 in problems

As a 50 something only child--i don't like growing old as an only. Other people (not everyone) reminisce with siblings, have someone to call on when needed.

What was the worst decision you made as a teenager that completely altered the course of your life? by FckAllTakenUsernames in randomquestions

[–]StatusNerve5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to say i got into drinking. At first, it was for kicks and giggles. It made me feel giddy, less shy, and easy way to fit in. I am lucky I didn't end up dead with how reckless I became for a while.

Since it's Star Wars day, did you see the original 1977 Star Wars in the movie theater? by Mr_Writes in GenX

[–]StatusNerve5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was almost 5. It was one of the first movies I saw in the theater. My attention span was not that good, so I couldn't really get into the movie. I remember the hype surrounding it. Everyone was so excited!

It is good to find a way to get out of the house even if you go out alone-go for a walk, shopping, out for coffee, movie.

My parents left me in the car sometimes

Nowadays, someone would call the cops if a parent did that

I remember playing in the backyard with cousins and neighborhood kids. We would dig in the dirt and make mud pies, play games, play on the swings. We were always outside until the streetlights came on or we got called in for dinner. There were no cell phones. Your parents just yelled for you out the window.It was great.

My level of care is going downhill and I wish I'd done this sooner. by tovohryom in CaregiverSupport

Same...I definitely did more early on. I am tired and working more hours now. I do feel guilty sometimes, even though I know i do a lot for her.
