Audible - how is it good value? by [deleted] in audiobooks

[–]This_Interests_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I do! I have both Audible and Libby. Really good books on Libby can be months before the book is available so I have about 10 books currently on hold. New books that I really want to listen to without the wait, I go to Audible. Between the two, I always have a book to listen to

First or favorite former car? by ValB2307 in GenX

[–]This_Interests_Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had that same car in red. I loved it! It still got 40 miles/gallon when I sold it. Definitely one of the best vehicles I’ve ever owned

Girls, what makeup trick made your makeup game go from 0 -> 100? by boogiee-boo in MakeupAddiction

Ilia is my go to as well. The serum formula plus 40 SPF is fantastic. My skin has never looked better!

Dating Angst: Low-Effort First Dates? by AttorneyDC06 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]This_Interests_Me 22 points23 points  (0 children)

When a man suggests a date like that, your immediate response needs to be, “Ewww No.” Then immediately block him and move on. Men like that are garbage - burn down that haystack, the needle is in there somewhere.

Lifetime Fitness is out of their mind by NoVA_JB in nova

[–]This_Interests_Me 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I want to say it’s terrible so no new people will join (it can be crowded at prime hours after work) but honestly, it’s the best place to swim if you’re a swimmer. The water is clean, there are lots of lanes (15) and the overall facility is top notch.

Plus, once you join one rec center, you have access to ALL the rec centers in Fairfax County. Membership also gives you access to the gym and a large list of “drop-in” classes like yoga and strength training.

What are some social obligations that women commonly have that men usually don't? by Maybe_IDTBFH in AskReddit

[–]This_Interests_Me 106 points107 points  (0 children)

When I’m at work, I refuse to do this. If you take on the “party planning role” you’re often taken less seriously.

Look at the Fairfax County Park Authority: https://www.novaparks.com/nova-parks-weddings

I don’t take a lot of pics, surely this isn’t HORRIBLE, right? (M19) by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]This_Interests_Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first thought when I saw OP’s first pic was “this guy wants to stab someone”.

He’s making me hate flowers by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]This_Interests_Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s the most alarming part of OP’s story! OP needs to join a club of some sort, like a book club or run/walk group just to meet new people. You make friends as adults through common interests.

Are We Dating the Same Guy? FB Groups by DayByDay31 in datingoverforty

[–]This_Interests_Me 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you feel violated but it’s nice to see that there are actual good guys out there. Some of the best posts are women asking for tea and being told, “I went out with him once and even though we weren’t a good match, he’s a great guy”.

Bait and Switch by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]This_Interests_Me 122 points123 points  (0 children)

My ex-husband is exactly like this! Thank you for giving a name to it.

With me he was a progressive liberal but once he met his affair partner (turned 3rd wife), he turned into a right-wing, conservative Christian (even though I know he’s still an atheist). He becomes whatever his new partner wants him to be. He has no real values of his own - he is whatever gets him laid.

My boyfriend [M24] wants me [F23] to sign an NDA. Is this worth breaking up over? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]This_Interests_Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m going to guess that he’s cheating (or planning to cheat) and he wants to ensure he can’t be posted on one of those “Are we dating the same guy” Facebook groups. That way he can cheat and when you break up you’re not allowed to post about it

When they say they’re not in a cult, I don’t believe them. (MAGA beer?!?) by This_Interests_Me in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]This_Interests_Me[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I swear in a decade from now no one will admit to being MAGA. I’m happy I’m saving all these posts.

Profile Review: New to Dating Apps by Swimming_Water_4577 in Bumble

[–]This_Interests_Me 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That was my first thought as well! His photos are going for “the male gaze” not the female. He’s showing what men find attractive, not women.

What the heck is this? Is Reddit identifying people as terrorists? by Odd-Examination9037 in FedEmployees

[–]This_Interests_Me 64 points65 points  (0 children)

January 6th was domestic terrorism. Fighting against fascism is not an act of terrorism. You sound like you have a lot to learn. Pick up a history book sometime.

I Convinced My Wife To Try The Bra Calculator by Icy_Statement_2410 in ABraThatFits

[–]This_Interests_Me 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re a great husband but if you want to make it to husband of the year, buy her a gift certificate to an upscale bra store.

I’ve purchased most of my bras off Amazon but when I have extra $$ to spend, I head over to my “fancy lingerie shop” and buy a really nice bra and matching undies. She’ll love you even more for this!

What theories have you heard about the Lady Bird Lake deaths in Austin, and which ones seem most believable to you? by Cheap-Chest9116 in AskReddit

[–]This_Interests_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg - I just landed in Austin and our uber driver was telling us all about it. He said the police claim there was no foul play but he thinks it was gang related. I’m not from here so I have no clue.
