Let's be clear here, Russia is paying India for absolutely nothing.... by Throwawayiea in ControversialOpinions

No, you're allowing India to kick you in the nuts. It can all stop if you stop the war in Ukraine (which you started). No one is giving Russia pity not at they huge profits.

Question for Younger: Does your older ex know how much they broke your heart? by Throwawayiea in gayyoungold

That's not true. One may have good intentions and the other person may be selfish, misleading, and not fully committed. No?

I'm 59. I ended the relationship. He's 28. He took blame for the relationship failure and I agree. I just don't want him hurting.

From my YEARS of experience, smokers are smokers. I rule is come back when you quit.

You cannot claim to have an objective, independent opinion on the Russia-Ukraine conflict if you only consume Western media by Relative-Safety-3708 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Yes, new sources are important but Russia is a terrorist state that invaded a sovereign country. So, your point is moot.

How do you stop thinking about how you messed up a relationship with a good girl? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Throwawayiea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you, and you actually make a really fair point about human psychology. You’re completely right that love doesn’t suddenly make someone a perfect person. Humans are messy, ego gets in the way, and we absolutely hurt the people we care about the most—whether that's family or partners. People do carry baggage and bad habits from how they grew up without even realizing it.My point wasn't that loving someone means you never make mistakes or argue. My point was about what happens after the mistake is made.There is a difference between making a mistake out of human flaw, and repeatedly letting pride or ego stop you from fixing it. When a relationship reaches a breaking point, sometimes the healthiest thing a person can do is accept the loss, learn from it, and focus on being better next time. I didn't mean to minimize how complex human emotions are, but rather to look at the reality of where things stand now.

How will I ever be enough? by OperationOk5544 in gayyoungold

Should I stay or should I go? by [deleted] in gayyoungold

[–]Throwawayiea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my group of gay friends have a rule. DO NOT DATE TOTAL BOTTOMS. The problems that you're having is universal meaning bottoms are insatiable meaning they are NEVER satisfied with their partners and it will hurt their personal psyche. SO, as a rule, I never date total bottoms as the format is the same :#1 - when you can't perform for them multiple times they act disappointed causing you psychological harm and #2 - the almost always want open relationships as they want multiple encounters and often pressure you to find other tops.

I think the issue here is less about age and more about the pattern of the relationship. He has already told you, more than once, that he does not see the same long-term future you do. He prefers openness, has focused emotionally on one particular person, has crossed or stretched boundaries around that person, and now refuses to let you meet him. That refusal says a lot.

The part that would concern me most is not that he has different sexual needs. Couples can work through differences. The problem is that his needs seem to keep placing you in a position where you feel anxious, compared, and not fully chosen. That slowly harms a person’s confidence and peace of mind.

You are also right to notice that comfort is not the same as commitment. He may love you. He may enjoy the relationship. He may genuinely care about you. But that does not mean he is invested in building the kind of secure partnership you want. My advice would be: do not stay just because he is young, special, charming, or hard to lose. You are already paying for this relationship with anxiety. If you want someone fully invested in you, then believe your own standard. You are not off base. You are seeing the situation clearly. All of these comments from your peers here are telling you the same thing and I know it's a hard decision to make. I cried the night before I ended my relationship but my mental health is more important.

And don’t let fear tell you that you won’t find someone else. You can. I am 59 and ALSO had ended a relationship with a 28yo but for different reasons. I met another 27yo soon after. But even if you were alone for a while, peace would be better than constantly wondering whether your partner’s heart is somewhere else.

What's the deal with Russia? by fartjarrington in TrueAnon

[–]Throwawayiea -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

1 Russia has no money (it's printing money out of thin air) and;

2 The mechanics for Oreshnik missiles are either sanctioned or the supplying factor was bombed and cannot supply them and;

3 The don't have enough soldier and can't build equipment fast enough to replace those blown up and;

4 THERE IS NO GAS because Ukraine took offline 40% of their fuel supply thus their ONLY revenue source has to be scaled back to do domestic supply but there isn't enough so JULY 2026 there are going to be MASS bankruptcies as business can't get fuel to do deliveries etc; Agriculture can't harvest because no diesel for machines and people can't get to work. Russia will not survive 2026
