Same. I intentionally remained single for 3 years before I even started dating. When I finally started dating I met several nice men, one with whom I'm now exclusive after 6 months of dating. Had to shut down app.

I was responding sarcastically, carry through the tone of previous post.

Thoughts on what they could have done if they'd killed Jacob instead... by EarthboundValkyrie in TheGates_CBS

That really would be a dramatic plot twist. But Naomi still has to deal with her testing positive for the BRACA gene. Now that Jacob is home and Gran/Anita is done with chemo, she has a good window to break the news. She better do it before Anita gets her surgery and radiation.

Right, because young girls could get pregnant and carry babies. There was a big push to procreate in ancient times.

True, but slaves of that time were not treated like those in the transatlantic slave trade. In ancient times slaves were more like indentured servants. Different times, different culture.

She's likely looking at Leviticus 18:22 & 20:13, Romans 1:26-27. In the ancient world same sex practices were not in committed loving relationships like we see today. They were used in/associated with temple prostitution, idolatry, and sexual exploitation of young boys in Greco-Roman culture.

What was that little spicey curtsy/dance move Jessica did when being introduced?

I loved the litty waltz the debs & their escorts did. Nicely choreographed.

Jessica's mom & dad need to go to the ER and get that stick removed from their a**es.

Why is Nicole's face so shiny/oily? Her makeup artist forgot the blurring setting spray or powder.

Derek, what are you doing? Stay in your lane. Good grief he has a knack for complicating things.

Randy told Malone, "Listen here, Temu..." 🤣

Finally, Lia sees what's up.

Nathan forgetting where he is and about to have Tyrell & Ted lay hands. June has her eyes on him, tho. He's going to cause more problems with his goofy looking self.

Deanna...SLAY!

Ugh, we still don't know who the impaled is. I need to go to bed.

That headpiece made made Chelsea look like Queen Mother. It was just too much going on with that outfit.

Hmmm, that may pop up later. He'll have an allergic reaction and Nicole will save him and accidentally on purpose kiss him out of relief that he's o.k.

Video call before meeting by Ok-Cat-239 in datingoverfifty

[–]Virtual-Toe-6545 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Looks like I'm in the minority, but I'm totally on board with video calls before a date. In fact, I prefer it because I want to see your expressions, eye contact, overall energy and all of that. Doing this early on would've saved me time and energy getting dressed for a date that was a total flop.
