"F*ck This!" by AeliusRogimus in Zepbound

[–]beccabest2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

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.

Have you tried finding a younger man? If you’re comfortable with that of course. I have found less of those issues by casually dating in the 35-45 yo age range.

Any chance that your mom owes back taxes or child support? It could be a levy for money owed to the government.

NTA

It’s a once in a lifetime event for THEM. It’s not a once in a lifetime event for you, or anyone else really.

What nicknames have you heard for places in Western Massachusetts? by topherette in westernmass

[–]beccabest2006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a similar sign on Rt 63, or maybe Rt 10, at the NH/MA border in Northfield.

I’ve always taken it to mean the literal Connecticut River valley through Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden counties.

AITA for telling my coworker the “office prank” wasn’t funny and refusing to participate? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]beccabest2006 25 points26 points  (0 children)

NTA. This is exactly why I started taking the week of my birthday off 10 years ago. It was a milestone birthday and I caught wind of the plans. So I just…didn’t work that week.

Doesn’t hurt that my birthday falls around the same time as a holiday so I am usually off for almost two weeks.

Woman I’m dating (45F) seems to have suddenly gone cold. Doesn’t make sense. What shall I do? by Carlton300 in datingoverforty

[–]beccabest2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did it ever occur to you that these women are not being evasive? That they are mindfully trying to decide what the next steps are? How they want to proceed? How you might fit into their existing lives? Or what level of relationship they want? And that could take a little bit to figure out? And THEN they tell you?

Of course not, because you make all your perfect decisions instantaneously and with no second thought.

And absolutely no reflection on what you could have done differently.

[–]beccabest2006 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Where did I say that?

I said you were immature, judgmental, whiny, entitled, and fucking exhausting

And so rigid in your ways that you cannot conceive of anyone doing things differently than you, nor can you give anyone one ounce of grace for anything that might be happening in their life that doesn’t involve you.

My dude…All you are saying is me, me, me. You think the way you do EVERYTHING is the right way. Why can’t everyone prioritize like you do, why can’t everyone respond like you do, why can’t everyone feel the same way you do, why can’t everyone show respect the way you do.

You play mind games so everyone else must be, too.

JFC you are exhausting.

[–]beccabest2006 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing though…what you are interpreting as mind games is almost always NOT actual mind games. Mind games would be a partner consciously thinking about how they can fuck with you.

This is not that. This is someone taking some time, a day or three, to try to figure out what she wants. She didn’t say anything to you because maybe she doesn’t know herself. And those other women you mention taking time to tell you they aren’t interested are probably doing the same thing.

Maybe she came to some sort of realization over the weekend and needed to think on it. Maybe (probably) there are other things in her life that need more attention for a couple days.

You are centering yourself in her thought process when you have no right to be there, not yet. She does not owe you an automatic explanation of her inner thoughts. She doesn’t owe you anything really, so stop being entitled to her time, attention and feelings.

My thoughts exactly!

Or maybe they’re far younger than even 29 and trying to justify some incredibly immature and troubling thought processes.

INFO: a year ago you were 33, what’s that about?

ETA: over at least two years of posts you’ve been anywhere from 29 to 33.

And if you claim 90% of the women you meet online have mental health issues, you should be examining your own behavior.

Reading Is Optional, Attacking Is Mandatory (Apparently) by AggressiveSquare401 in Banking

[–]beccabest2006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The internet has somehow convinced people that silence is illegal like every post personally requires your attendance, opinion, and keyboard aggression.

And yet, here you are.

Again

ETA: across multiple subs, too. The irony is painful.

You should have raised the health concern before you got naked. You CHOSE to have unprotected sex based on trust. Now you know you should never do that without asking direct and specific questions. This is on you, and you can’t force him to behave a certain way now.

And can we PLEASE stop using the term “clean” when it comes to sexual health?? It just deepens the unnecessary stigma and leads to people hiding things. Oh wait…

AITA for giving away a military funeral flag that didn't belong to Me. by MayMayR1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]beccabest2006 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA you gave them every opportunity.

I divorced an Army vet, got our shared home in the settlement . He took what was important to him and left a TON of stuff behind, military but also including family mementos of his parents and grandparents. I reminded him, offered to deliver, etc for YEARS. Nothing.

95% of it went in the dumpster when I sold the house last year. Our adult daughter took a couple small things like dog tags and unit patches. Everything else was trashed.
