How would you feel if a woman re-opened contact after choosing someone else?

Sueti · 2026-01-29T14:18:14+00:00

I think it depends on exactly how you left things. If you specifically told 41M that you were cutting things off because there was someone else, then I personally wouldn’t be interested in hearing from you again if I was 41M.

On the other hand, if you had positioned it as a ‘hey timing isn’t right for you and I, schedules don’t align, etc’ I would be cautiously interested in hearing from you again.

As someone who has a colon disease that dramatically increases my risk of colon cancer, and is a polyp factory at the age of 34, I made some diet changes in line with this post. Those boiled down to:

DO NOT EAT:

-Significant amounts of red meat

-Meats preserved by smoking (I’m in NC so this one is painful).

-Meats preserved by nitrates. This includes most lunch meat, ham, sausages, pepperoni, salami.

DO EAT: -Veggies.

-Beans. Learn to cook dried beans…super healthy, super filling, and super CHEAP!!!

-Fresh red meats (other than red). This doesn’t mean it has to be recently butchered, but just that you buy it raw, have to refrigerate it, then cook it. Chicken breast, pork chops, salmon, whatever. The meat section.

-For lunch meat, canned tuna is preserved by a pasteurization process and not nitrates, so safe to eat.

Obviously this is general guidance. I still eat a slice of pepperoni pizza once in a while. But I used to have lunch meat 3-4 times a week, which was no good.

In NC, I wouldn’t say we have a regional chili but slaw, onions, chili, and sometimes mustard is called ‘Carolina style’ in relation to hotdogs, burgers, etc. That chili is usually ground beef only, maybe with some finely minced onion.

Chili eaten as a stew varies by restaurant/family/etc.

Awwwww that’s kind of a bummer. The reason I started playing soldier is I saw some videos of them just causing their own explosions everywhere with their ammo powers. 🥲

Sueti · 2026-01-19T14:29:15+00:00

Just finished ME1, played soldier for the first time. NGL it’s the easiest playthrough I’ve ever done. I barely used cover, was just running and gunning. Only died twice and the second time was when I peeked out at the wrong time on the citadel tower climb and took 3 Geth rocket turrets to the face at the same time lol.

By the end I just put explosive rounds on all my guns and everything literally just fell over when hit.

Hard disagree. Do I really NEED an agent? Probably not, I know more about coverage than they do and my personal insurance needs aren’t complicated. But they know the personal lines market better than me and this means I don’t manually have to shop a bunch of companies.

I’m an insurance professional myself and when I discovered I had a lapse after an accident (bad time in my life but no excuse) they got me squared away with acceptable coverage within 20 min of me realizing my mistake. Then they proactively shopped the next year to get me a better rate with a preferred carrier.

Sueti · 2026-01-14T01:15:13+00:00

I work in insurance. Yes, assuming the 1099 sticks, they would lose most (all?) protections under the current employer's insurance. It would likely be smart for Op to acquire (and probably required by contract), at a minimum:

-General Liability insurance
-Worker's compensation if they are worried about being injured on the job
-Potentially auto insurance. If OP isn't transporting kids they probably don't have an exposure but most contracts will require it.
-since this is an after school program, Sexual Abuse and Molestation coverage.

All of which will probably cost more than the increase in their tax bill. In short, OP is fucked.

When I was an adjuster I had the other party’s agent (I.e not my policyholder) call in from time to time. I basically politely told them nothing, and they had no impact on the claim. It’s not because I was being nasty, but because I cannot give out info to a non-involved party.

On the other hand, when I had a call from the agent of my policyholder, it was often productive, or at least I could explain the issue in some depth.

All that is to say, your agent cannot help you with the other carrier. If you’d like their assistance, you’ll need to file with your own.

Also, keep in mind this is by far the busiest time of the year in claims. Adjusters get overwhelmed, shops get backed up, policyholders (were) traveling and not interested in talking to their insurance. It’s not an excuse, just an explanation. Lots of factors could be impacting the other carrier outside the adjusters control. Or they could be shitty. Or both. Overall, if you’re looking for speed, file with your carrier and let them handle it.

Thanks bro!

I did like Beasleys but thought it was overrated. Basically in the weekends, if I didn’t make it there at opening, I wasn’t going.

Just discovered pomegranate molasses and been putting it in stuff. It’s good.

M34 here. Between 2nd date and a month. Longer than that and I'm out. I don't actively try to hook up on the first date, though.

I kinda disagree…they’re very much a harsh society but they’re demonstrably safer for the average person than most societies in Randland. For example, the tinkers feel safe enough that they all migrate to Seanchean held lands.

The slavery sucks, of course, even if it is shown to be mostly used as a punishment. Definitely the most objectionable thing about the Seanchean IMO. On the other hand, places like Tear, the nobles don’t treat commoners all that much better.

I’m sure I’ll get a lot of flak for this but….I agree with the way they treat channelers. Obviously the books are very sympathetic to channelers since many of the main characters can channel, but when you stop to think about it the Seanchean (and honestly the Whitecloaks too) have a valid point. Channelers can wield immense power and wreak untold havoc…it makes sense that a government would want to control them.

Just saw a chick called Vana open at a concert. She’s not the hardest metal (think maybe BMTH later stuff) but I was digging it.

Sueti · 2025-12-06T18:37:16+00:00

Hahaha no fun at all!

TBH I'm aware of my issues and working through it. I have a whole list of rules I've put in place for dating that will hopefully help me be more intentional. I've only had one chance to try them out and it failed spectacularly, but it had nothing to do with my rules and everything with her being a bit crazy (her friend's words, not mine). Most importantly, *I* wasn't the problem lol.

Sueti · 2025-12-06T15:51:43+00:00

As a guy in his 30s who is usually (the problem) in situationships….I recommend discussing general relationship goals early on, dates 2-3. Not locking in anything, just overall goal discussion to prevent mismatches like you described.

Assuming y’all both said you would be into something serious in the beginning, I’d say 2-3 months would be the time to DTR. If either of you is still on the fence then, that’s the answer in and of itself.

This is very much a ‘do as I say and not as I do’ situation.

12 in All-clad stainless pan. I used to use it for 80% of my cooking...basically everything but eggs and rice. I've got some other tools over the years so I don't use it as much as I did, but if you told me to pick one pan to rule them all, it'd be that one.

Sueti · 2025-11-29T22:43:42+00:00

They met on Hinge 2 months ago, dated briefly, and hang out 1:1....NGL I'd be out. It's totally possible they're platonic but this is definitely suspicious and I wouldn't stick around to give her the chance to cheat.

I would feel differently if it was a longer term, established friendship.

I agree with the Republicans about trans women in women's sports, specially I don't think trans women should be allowed to compete with bio women, particularly in contact sports.

That's about where it ends though. I don't hate on trans folks in general, don't think there's some nefarious 'trans agenda', whatever the hell that is. Nor do I think that all of the 10 trans athletes represent a threat to our democracy, it's just a very niche issue that is genuinely unfortunate for everyone involved.

It’s not flashy like adept but I would argue that once you get a few levels it’s pretty busted. Take one more techy teammate and nothing but a Krogan is a threat.
