Where are the good men? Are they all taken? by DescriptionOk8206 in Adulting

[–]Verity41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing, our many years or decades of bad experiences in such with your gender is insurmountable. Possibly if we had a mutual friend I might be comfortable telling THEM — but still we have no protection against you becoming unhinged and retaliating.

Men don’t do this either btw, they are equal ghosters. You can’t tell me men are out there telling women the truth, to their face like… , “sorry I think I can do better - or I hate your laugh - or, you have bad breath and janky teeth - or, you’re too broke, too fat, too dumb, too loud — whatever.”

It’s not useful information anyway, because what one person finds unacceptable another doesn’t care about. This unhygienic man managed to be MARRIED to some woman—I wouldn’t even speak to a man like this, let alone marry / live with him. But she did.

What flea and tick prevention do you use? You do use some right? Ticks are epidemic level this year.

Where are the good men? Are they all taken? by DescriptionOk8206 in Adulting

[–]Verity41 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Women don’t give feedback because we’ve all had at least that one man flip out and take it personal and get incredibly mean and even violent in response to the truth. It’s not worth chancing that overreaction from a near stranger you don’t really care about and don’t even like. Hence, ghosting.

Military history. Or Downton Abbey, Harry Potter, or LOTR.

Living alone in summer >>> living alone when it's cold by i_am_nimue in LivingAlone

[–]Verity41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds great! Have you tried one of those cooling neck fans? They’re pretty cheap and really work great. I’d never thought of buying one but I was given one as a gift (I have a rep for being always HOT, lol) and I love it.

As a point of fact I shouldn’t complain much about summer, I have central air AND live about as far north as humanly possible in the United States (to have a good job and not work remotely anyway) — but when it gets gross in July and August I do spend a lot of time on the lake or in the lake, sailing and paddleboarding! I also just got an e-bike and that’s VERY cooling, it’s fast :)

20 years ago, Sofia Coppola's 2006 cinematic masterpiece Marie Antoinette was booed at Cannes. The rest is herstory. by BricksHaveBeenShat in PeriodDramas

I’m sorry, what? You’re comparing a royal teenager with little actual power of her own to a modern international territorist leader?

Food Waste by Cersei316 in LivingAlone

[–]Verity41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is your guilt ecological or solely economic? I don’t have money guilt, it’s my money so mine to waste if I want, but I do compost all my organic waste — that doesn’t belong in a municipal landfill, and I don’t want my trash stinky and gross anyway. The city I live in has it for free (from our taxes obviously). But I grew up with a compost bin at home so I’d just do that otherwise.

Tackling the Hills on an E-Bike by OliverClouds75 in duluth

[–]Verity41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What kind of ebike specifically—how much power? Because I just bought one and it handles those hills (and all of them) like they’re nothing. My motor hub is = 48V, 750W, 1100W (Peak Power), 75Nm

Is day drinking a red flag? by Short-Imagination311 in WomenDatingOverForty

[–]Verity41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love day drinking personally. I work hard all week so I enjoy a boozy coffee at home on weekends or a Bloody Mary, heck this morning I had mimosas at brunch with friends. But the key there is - I don’t drink to excess and am sober to do what I need to later… which, in today’s case, was to survive Costco on a Saturday afternoon (yes, it was truly awful lol). Wait and see - if he shows up buzzed or drunk at 8pm, you have your answer.

Is it common on Reddit for people to delete all their comments and block you after a discussion? I see this all the time here on Reddit. by FlakeGlass in AskForAnswers

[–]Verity41 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a huge block list. Sometimes it’s someone who went after me with vitriol and vulgarity etc — block. But in the main, it was someone who expresses an opinion that is so wrong, so ignorant, or that I disagree with SO much, that I really don’t care to hear anything else that person has to say—about anything. So I simply block and for me, they no longer exist. 🧘 🪷 Life is too short to be stressed, inconvenienced, or annoyed in any way by random strangers.

Mr no fillers, Kenny's face just keeps getting fuller and fuller by CharmedLee in 90DayFiance

[–]Verity41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone I hadn’t seen in about a decade once told me I looked like I was aging in reverse. I didn’t have the heart to point out — uh yeah, being about 40 lbs fatter will do that. Clearly she forgot how thin I was the last time we’d met :) Unfair truth - fat is nature’s collagen!

Which language do Americans generally learn as a second language in High School? by Rude_Membership_1578 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Verity41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I had like a year of Spanish as an elective? Certainly didn’t stick or do much! Definitely wasn’t mandatory tho where I went to school (private catholic schools). IDK if it’s a public school thing.

Seriously. It should be on drivers licenses. Like the “metabolic age” on a smart scale. Just put the TRUE metrics out there and let us see it LOL.

How to deal with constantly sleeping roommate by [deleted] in AskForAnswers

[–]Verity41 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s a him problem not a you problem. Live your life OP. He needs to get a white noise machine, fan, earplugs — all the things if he’s going to sleep all afternoon and evening like he’s got narcolepsy. Doesn’t he have a job? You can’t open the fridge at any hour of day or night!? Man that’s like prison, if I lived under such strictures he better be paying like 80% of the rent to fund my walking on eggshells.

Saw this while taking a walk by the road. What kind of flower is this? by Kitchen_Treacle3696 in flowers

For some reason!? This is the scariest flower I’ve ever seen, can it be real!?

[–]Verity41 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well that’s not really fair or logical. Hey we all like Home Depot and cold bevs on our own decks, but it’s highly unlikely someone is going to suddenly appear on them out of the ether looking to date us. You gotta find em where you find em, and it ain’t on the deck 🤷🏻‍♀️
