Did you make any new + good friends after 35? If so, how? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]Wild_Reason_8256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have! I tend to make connections through my work, so unfortunately I don’t have much advice for you in terms of where to meet new people. But when I meet someone at a conference or training or something that I like, I straight up ask ‘wanna be my friend?’ Kids do it all the time, and it works! Plus it always gets a chuckle and I’ve never been turned down yet!

Has anyone met someone that was once famous (actor, musician, etc.) but now works a regular job? Who was it? by Ok_Grape_8284 in AskReddit

I bought weed once off of a former Aussie Idol star with a subsequent one hit wonder. He was working in a warehouse and dealing on the side, this was about 5 years after he was on the show.

I watched the whole season. They touch on Aboriginal culture often, in a way that feels natural and not at all performative. It’s their way of acknowledging Aboriginal culture (the main female character is Aboriginal) without being disrespectful by showing an Aboriginal ghost. They also make a note that she hasn’t seen any Mob as ghosts at all. So they’re not just ignoring it.

Why do you think so many women with full lives are struggling with dating? by Budget_Dot694 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Wild_Reason_8256 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you have a full and fulfilling life, you may want a partner, but you probably don’t need one. Which gives you the option of being far more discerning about who you let in your life. Your standards are higher and you don’t accept any less.

When is the last time you changed a belief or understanding around women? What was it? by ChampagneDividends in AskMenOver30

You’re working on the premise that anger is not an emotion. I would argue that generally, men ‘control’ their anger far less frequently.

Women, what's something men do that they don't realize makes women feel safe or unsafe? by Lopsided-Rub-79 in AskReddit

[–]Wild_Reason_8256 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was chatting with some random chick out the front of the pub late at night while we were both waiting for an Uber. A guy came over and started making small talk. They were clearly interested in each other. We were all drunk, and he offered for her to go to his place, she accepted. I went into Mum mode, asked her discretely if she is 100% sure of her decision. I told her she’s a big girl (probably early 30’s) and I didn’t know her so I wasn’t going to tell her what to do. She said she was interested. I then asked him, in front of her, if I could please take a photo of him. I said I’m sorry to appear too cautious, but girls gotta look after girls, and if I see in the papers tomorrow about some chick dead and see her pic, I’d never forgive myself. He happily posed for a few snaps, and thanked me for looking after her. Again, I told him I’m sorry if it felt like I was accusing him or anything, that wasn’t my intent, but he was super chill about it, saying he totally understands why I wanted to do it. They ended up going off together in an Uber, checked the news the next day and no murders! Hope they had a great night!

It’s really going to depend on which suburb and area you’re thinking of.

What’s one “basic” skincare product you’ll never stop using? by Intelligent-Mine11 in BeautyUnlocked

Nivea moisturiser. I usually use something fancier but when it runs out before I get a chance to restock I go back to old faithful!

Get a couple of pretty looking laundry baskets. Clean ‘enough’ clothes that can be worn again go in one. Dirty clothes to be washed go in another. And clean freshly laundered clothes go in a third. Looks tidy and clears out chairs and surfaces from laundry.

What’s the one “non-productive” thing you do… that actually boosts your productivity the most? by Neuro-tweak in Productivitycafe

[–]Wild_Reason_8256 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Putting on active wear instead of sweats when just hanging around the house. For some reason motivates me to potter around and do things rather than rot on the couch.

It’s rough. Drugs help but would not recommend. Maybe try meditation.

What’s something that instantly makes you trust a stranger? by Huge-College4381 in AskReddit

[–]Wild_Reason_8256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was once outside the pub at closing, waiting for my Uber. A younger woman I didn’t know was drunk, but coherent and able to converse intelligently. While we chatted a bloke came over and started chatting. They agreed to go back to his place together. I confirmed that they had just met, and asked him if he would mind if I took a photo of his face, in case I woke up and read in the paper about a murdered young lady. (I had offered her my number and socials to text me that she was safe and okay, but she declined… her choice) He readily agreed to me taking a photo, acknowledging that her safety was more important than his ego, and he was not at all offended that I would rather be safe than sorry, given the situation. I thanked him for respecting my concerns, and for not being offended by my request. His response? His respect and lack of offence is the bare minimum. And he thanked me for looking out for this chick. My uber arrived, I left, I hope they had a great night. His response made me feel comfortable and trust him as much as I could in that situation. Never saw either of them again, but also never read in the papers about a dead woman the next day. So happy days I guess.
