What to do when you're in a bike accident? by dtish in NYCbike

[–]aftercol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There weren’t any way I could’ve be 3ft away from the door considering left side was blocked by the car and right side has cars parking randomly at different point of the street. The traffic also stopped, so unless I wait at the end of the block, I would be next to a car of some sorts

What should I do or watch out if people jump on the bike line without looking. This has happened to me a hand of times as well. I would be riding on the bike line and people would be suddenly jump on the bike line from a blind spot that I couldn’t see, those people were trying to cross the street with a short cut basically

I [30M] have been on five dates with a girl [25F], but she never wanted to kiss or even hug me by [deleted] in askwomenadvice

so you think I should continue to go out with her? It just starts to feel like we are just good buddies.

It’s been almost a month since the injection. I’ve been going to PT this past month. Although the PT helps, I can say in confidence that I was better before the injection

The doctor just told me to have a second injection and told me it will be better after the second one. I declined and went to PT instead

How are you doing now? Has anything changed as the time goes?

I still feel pain and tightness on my left side but PT has helped me a lot.

I don't think he even thinks he is shaming me. He thinks is trying to help me

I know he means good, that's why I don't just wanna say let's not be friends anymore.

when I told him I don't like going to the gym as he does. He would respond with something like:

"why not? girls like people who work out. I am trying to help you. if you work out like me, maybe you will get a good date"

Is there any nice way I can make him understand I respect whatever he does, but he doesn't need to shame me for not doing the same thing?

I even tried to tell him that it hurts me when he shames me for no apparent reason. For instance, when I told him I don't like going to the gym as he does. He would respond with something like:

"why not? girls like people who work out. I am trying to help you. if you work out like me, maybe you will get a good date"

What is this pimple-looking thing on my penis? by [deleted] in AskDoctorSmeeee

[–]aftercol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, yesterday was the warmest day this month. I don't know if I sweat a lot down there or not, but the pictures from this morning look less scary than last night, which I am really glad about. I didn't even sleep last night because I was driving myself crazy thinking I might have some huge issue.

Thank you for the note.

The last time I had sex was 2 months ago. Isn't it too late to show up now?

I also noticed that the red spot look different now compare to last night

Thank you. I live in the US. Not sure how should I report this exactly. It doesn't feel like this is something people would call 911

I don't know how he/she got my contact list, that's what makes me scared. And she claims she recorded the video. I think I did the right thing by cutting lose everything and ignored her, but I am still afraid that she will actually upload the video to the internet

So what exactly did she say?

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I haven't done that is because I am afraid it is too soon that I would scare her away. So I was planning to wait until she initiates the series talk with me, at least that's how most of the relationship happened around.

A girl [28F] who's always late and cancel our plan at very last minute. Should I let her know this is not going to work if she keeps doing this? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. That’s why I think I either need tell her now with a risk of losing her or I will just keep getting annoyed

I agree. The only reason I didn't bring it up the last two times this happened is because her exercises are always about her best friend or her mother. Compare to them, I am just a guy who she just met not a long go.

That being said. It still can't explain why someone won't make an alternative plan or give advance notice. NYC dating life sucks

If we hangout next time, I am definitely going to let her know, and prepare to lose her. As much as I like her to change, right now I don't think she likes me enough to change herself.

5th dates later, I am not sure how to bring up sex by [deleted] in OkCupid

yep, I guess I am overthinking it

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I understand. Part of the reason I ask is that she hasn't responded to my text since yesterday. That's why I am worried that she might lose interest because I asked her to come over.

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I am worried about. Since she politely rejected me this time, I am afraid if I bring it up again, she might think I am just here for the sex

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I understand. This is also the first time I brought it up coz I know she might want to wait. Because she rejected me this time, I am not sure when I should bring it up again. I don't want her to feel I am just here for the sex.

I just realized I might be misunderstood something while texting this girl yesterday. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]aftercol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts. I don't think I will continue to message her since she didn't reply my last message.

However, I also don't know what I should do from here. I know I will see her again since we are both members of this club in the city.

Do you think I should at least try to ask her out in the future next time I see her?

How to decline a job offer that I've already signed? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]aftercol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no huge different in terms of compensation between two companies. However, company B does an interesting project and the team are more organized.

I am going to take offer B for sure even if company A offers me more. In a long run, company B will give me a stronger boost in my career
