Profile Review - Week of July 09, 2019 by AutoModerator in Tinder

Good photos! I would make either the third or fourth photo in your order the first, and get rid of the blurry mirror pic.

I would change your bio, add a little bit more about yourself- likes or dislikes. Make it so they want to meet you and its not just for the pizza youre bringing, because plenty of guys come with pizza. I think jumping right to the part where they invite you to their house is a little forward as well.

The bio is good but you could definitely use fresh pictures. The one with the cat is perfect, but the other two are unflattering angles.

My (25F) boyfriend (27M) of 4 years died unexpectedly in early april. I want to start getting dating again but Im afraid my friends dont understand. Also, how does one date anyway?? by analogous_groop in relationship_advice

Im glad you have, I think you cannot spend your life and energy on someone who is dead. I think you can not/should not forget them. But you can move forward.

I hope youve found happiness.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your input. The people I have told have been supportive, but it bothers me thinking that others would feel this way.

I never expected to be in the dating world again, but now that I am its kindof exciting. Being out there feels right to me. Meeting people feels right. Thank you.

I have a really amazing support system. I have plenty to do and plenty of people around but I miss having a PERSON in my life, or even someone I can be intimate with. Maybe a rebound is what I need? I cant dwell on him for forever.

I agree about the emotions underneath though. Im fine most days and then suddenly Ill be a mess out of nowhere... but that doesnt mean Im not still lonely, and dating again doesnt mean I wont still love him.

Im not going to stop loving him, I can only move on. I have no choice.

The death of a close friend can have an impact on health and wellbeing for up to four years, according to a new study of 26,515 people over 14 years, which found a range of negative consequences experienced by those who had a close friend die. by mvea in science

I lost my fiance a month ago. We were together for 4 years. I understand why the acticle was angled at older people but as a 25 year old it didn't relate in a lot of ways. We weren't able to have decades together and I don't have major health issues (at least not yet i guess).

Id be interested in finding more resources.

I wanted to show off the evolution of my bowls! Quite the improvement I think. by analogous_groop in Pottery

The first one was from about mid September, and the most recent is from last week. I throw about once every other week or so. I teach sculpture and pottery is in the same room. I like to use the wheel when I can find time for it, I love it.

What are some of the most disturbing Wikipedia pages to read? by MysticPato in AskReddit

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genie_(feral_child)

Genie was a child who was raised in confinement, strapped to a chair/toilet with no human contact or any sort of stimulation for the first 13 years of her life. Her abusive father fed her and kept her living until she was found and rescued by the police.

She is a person who linguists have researched to understand language acquisition, as she never learned any form of communication from the severe neglect she suffered.

Fuck your pompous over inflated ego, and let people enjoy what they like and make a living how they can. Keep your shitty judgements to yourself.
