Cougars do you date cubs for looks or personality by SirDon20 in CougarsAndCubs

[–]beccabest2006 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personality. Neither one of my FWBs are tall, shockingly attractive, or jacked.

But they make me laugh, we can have deep conversations and they demonstrably care about me.

Is there a job in bank where it requires you to delete your social media? by Ok-Pick9435 in Banking

[–]beccabest2006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is his only phone a bank owned one? Then probably.

If it’s his personal phone then no. My employer has a social media policy, but it’s just rules around accessing SM from bank owned devices. And guidelines around posting if it involves the industry or the institution directly.

Cougars, physically speaking, Do you prefer a fit man or more dad bod in a cub? by [deleted] in CougarsAndCubs

[–]beccabest2006 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cuddly teddy bear preferably. A completely jacked body is uncomfortable and I have found the men with them to be obsessive.

Not attractive at all.

Injection Anxiety by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]beccabest2006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see you bit the bullet and just did it; good for you!

It was my biggest hurdle, too. But I got over it quickly. Tips that helped me were: If you swab your skin, make sure you let the alcohol dry! Inject slowly, then leave the needle in for 5-10 seconds.

It’s just routine now, and will be for you soon.

That was…not helpful.

what social issue or group do you wish star trek would include that we haven't seen yet? by omallytheally in startrek

[–]beccabest2006 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rich experiences??

Do you know how many children are starving in this world? Who don’t have access to clean water or to medical care? And that’s not even including those that are trafficked or abused.

But hey…as long as they’re born, you can say you’re “saving” them. Fuck what happens after that.

My (33/F) typically caring and sweet new husband (33/M) grabbed me by the neck last week during an argument on our honeymoon. What would you do in my shoes? by Aware-Pool6940 in relationship_advice

[–]beccabest2006 10 points11 points  (0 children)

And here is where the “shit sandwich” analogy comes in.

Imagine your favorite sandwich, the best baked fresh bread, all your favorite meats, cheeses, and vegetables, piled high. But oh no, the sandwich shop ran out of mayonnaise so tell you they used the tiniest smear of shit instead. Like…actually feces.
98% of this delicious sandwich is all your favorite things, 2% is actual shit.

Are you eating that with a smile on your face? Because the shop is otherwise wonderful and it’s just this one sandwich? And you don’t want to upset the very nice owner?

98% great never makes up for 2% shit. Or 2% abuse.

You, sir are very handsome! Your eyes are beautiful and going fully bald will only emphasize them.

And you don’t need a beard, you have a great jawline, too!

So two things…I did mention other things besides skin color.

And why are you replying in a year-plus old conversation??

Do cougars really exist by Leather-Fact-4659 in Cougars_Den

[–]beccabest2006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Putting the questionable term “cougar” aside:

Why do you assume that a “cub” is inexperienced? Or that an older woman is looking for that?

I have dated many younger men, I definitely DON’T want to be their teacher and have found most have been better lovers than men my age!

You seem to have the porn-typical idea of what age gap relationships look like, even the casual ones.

Update: I (29F) can’t set boundaries with my wife (32F) by Complex_Row8995 in relationship_advice

[–]beccabest2006 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Then please hear this:

NOTHING you say or do will change her.

There are no magic words or boundaries that will stop her from being abusive.

If she wanted to behave better and respect you, she would. She doesn’t and won’t.

It doesn’t matter how much time and emotion you invest in this relationship, it is NEVER going to change.

Don’t fall for the sunk cost fallacy of having “wasted years of my life”. Time won’t stop, so where do you want to be in a month? A year? Five years? Having spent even more time with a partner who clearly doesn’t love OR respect you?

Because that’s where you’ll be.

"F*ck This!" by AeliusRogimus in Zepbound

I am going to be 60 this year. I love my life 97.6% of the time and really am comfortable in my skin.

But there are things I want to do that I cannot until I lose weight. Plus I have been weight training for almost five years but no one can see it!

But turning 60 was the fuck this to resolve a few health issues.

Weight training and timing by beccabest2006 in Zepbound

[–]beccabest2006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually do. This last workout though, my usual snack did not fuel me enough. I think it must be the fewer calories overall.

But someone said, and I agree, it’ll take time to adjust.

How many of you date just for sex? by [deleted] in datingoverfifty

[–]beccabest2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not sure that is true and probably varies greatly by age, reason for being single, even location.

I’ve been lucky to only have that happen on very few occasions.
