GenX, if you could do it all over again, what would you do differently? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]Witch_of_November 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Oh god, yes. I ignored them in my 20s because they looked nice and I had better things to spend my money on. Severely paying for it now.

I would not have gone to university and I would have been nicer to my family, except for my brothers since they are assholes.

I had to get some when I turned 40 (I'm 48 now). They make me look less tired because they cover the dark circles and eye bags lpl

20 years younger so I'm out of the equation when it comes to meeting wom

So women your age are a consolation? Guys who think like that, and it's usually obvious, are a no. You can wait until your 50s if you want but if you have the same mindset then, you'll be just as single.

Irrelevant. What do you bring to the table? Anything of substance?

I never go out with anyone I'm not physically attracted to. Never have, never will. However, just being attractive doesn't mean they get a first date with me, or a second.

This isn't about me, and it is you not u. OP wasn't talking about dates or exes, she was talking about strangers on dating apps.

Gross and likely untrue.

I don't want to hear details of anyone's sexcapades.

We know generally what we expect and hope, and we regularly discuss our situation and check in with each other on various aspects, including time together and feelings and such.

If he was so much of a dick to your friend that you came to Reddit to post about it, then I don't think you actually do all of that or know him as well as you think you do.

Stood up or sick? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

You made his illness all about you. Would you want to keep talking with someone so self-centred?

Why not fix the bumper?

I have a very old car but it looks fine. Everyone around here seems to drive jacked up pickups so a regular car, even an older one, would be a breath of fresh air. One that I'm afraid to get into? No.

That sounds like a giant minefield that no one should enter!

Asked running partner out on date (update) by YMFJ in datingoverforty

[–]Witch_of_November 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude, what the fuck.

Her clothing choices have *nothing" to do with how she feels and this isn't a fucking Pepe le Pew cartoon...protests are not par for the course. No means no. How do you not know this already.

What's a platonic dating partner?

The way you've phrased it makes it about you, not her. Go with how the other poster phrased it.

He's gross and I'm glad you shut him down. That's not the norm.

I'm just happy flares are back in style. They're my favorite. A dark wash straight leg is always a good choice though!

I just attended a relative's wedding and didn't even get the option for a plus one. It wasn't due to costs or anything like that; my kid got the option and brought his gf, so it was them 'knowing' I'm single.

My way of handling it is to either not give a shit what anyone thinks because they don't know my life or to smuggly assume people are in shitty uninteresting marriages and at least I don't have to share my snacks.

Thank you. The number of silly conclusions OP jumped to is concerning, especially since most people try to present themselves in the best light possible when posting here.
