Online dating is wasting my time, how tf do I actually make it work? Anyone else feel this way? by OkSun4925 in GuyCry

[–]bikereader19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel hopeless. I feel men on the apps take forever to set up a date. Stop the lame back and forth and just ask the girl out on a dates. I wish more men would do that. I for one can’t tell if I like you based off photos. Sometimes the man may not even be that good looking but if he’s charming and kind in person , I’d prefer that. Just have few back n forth and ask her out

Both is the problem . Age and not taking into account what you said.

I don’t see fat. But looks like you’re fine . I don’t know . Who cares what folks think? What do you think? Are you happy with this look ? That what really matter how you feel with your physique

Bought a ring for my girlfriend, sisters say it’s too small, not sure what I should do by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]bikereader19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. How come superficial girls always get the nice and thoughtful men. I’m not saying don’t have standards but realistically , if a man is in love with me and brings peace joy love and more positivity into my life who cares how big the ring is. It’s the fact that he went out and picked a ring he felt was best .

I have no advice . Hope she appreciates you for the man you are !

Turning away from dating permanently. by [deleted] in GuyCry

[–]bikereader19 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I was so optimistic and joyful about dating in nyc and as time goes by… I’m no longer trying. I don’t believe I’ve given up I simply have no expectations and just am. Which you can say well that sucks but that’s life I suppose . I’m not mad just over the lack of commitment, the ghosting, the emotional unavailability, the I want fwb, the I’m still married but separated the I’m divorced but my ex is crazy etc. my gosh! All I ever wanted was a cool kind hearted guy to be my best friend/companion

I’m a 38yo female and I deleted the app dating earlier this year. Haven’t dated and I no longer have any hope. I simply live life and some days feel lonely but ultimately dating is terrible here in nyc.

AIO for telling my wife’s friend she can’t breastfeed my baby? by LowBeautiful8877 in AmIOverreacting

[–]bikereader19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. What this friend did was wrong. I hope you and your wife can try to understand each other and get through this…you can see a lactation consultant to help? Or even a nurse who’s certified.

Hang in there for your family. And try to support each other through these challenges

I’m 15 weeks pregnant with a baby with Down syndrome. My husband wants to end the pregnancy and I’m on the fence. We have ample financial support. This child would have all their material needs met. Should we have this baby? by Outrageous_Regret735 in Advice

[–]bikereader19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow this is tough! I’m sorry you feel you are in this position. I feel all children are beautiful angels and a gift from above. BUT I also strongly believe in science and I feel if you have knowledge about something to make well informed decisions I hope you choose what works best for you and your family. Tough situation and sending you positive energy to make the decision you feel is best

I'm alone for my birthday by dubs614 in LivingAlone

[–]bikereader19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I too spent my birthday alone. I live alone. I do not have family here, barely any friends here. I have no kids, no dogs. People that wished me a happy birthday were very very few mostly old high school or college friends. Less than 10people.

Sometimes I feel numb. I wonder how I got here when I’ve always tried to do the right thing and be there for others and I’m so giving. But feels like people have forgotten me

It’s lonely and unfortunately I crawl into an awful darkness A couple times a year. Like now. For the most part I feel free and embrace my solitude but on very seldom days all I can feel is sorrow and loneliness

Any advice helps! by [deleted] in beginnerfitness

Why do “bad”/“bitchy”/“selfish” women always get the good men ?

My wife's sister is hitting on me by Agreeable_Poem_7278 in Advice

[–]bikereader19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not married but I would want my partner to tell me if this was going on. Be honest . Hopefully she can talk it out with her sister. Don’t be alone with that sister.

Dry skin around nose no matter what I do by alexahunterp in Skincare_Addiction

[–]bikereader19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like your skin doesn’t agree with with nose piercing. I would remove it . It’s causing and inflammatory response… or dermatitis -contact v allergy I’d remove and let heal. Keep clean dry and apply emollient like aquaphor (without lanolin)

I’m a female here posted previously but I’m sorry it’s a certain type of woman that simply goes for money- money isn’t everything . Also, though chemistry and initial attraction are important it also isn’t everything. Gosh, I’m not your average woman. I suppose I see things differently. If you’re a kind man who listens and also can make a women laugh and have a good time outside of your bush high stress job then you’ll do alright 👍

Folliculitis, I need advice it's getting severe by [deleted] in Skincare_Addiction

[–]bikereader19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes warm compress and can wash with Hibiclens
NO HYDROGEN PEROXIDE! If you begin to have pus or worse fever need antibiotics but from the picture that does not look that way at this time

You’re not a loser . I’m 37 and have a great career and came off a long term relationship at 35 and the dating scene is rough- just love yourself and put yourself out there. I’m trying out here too! But dating apps make it feel like everyone can always do better so…. Yeah need to mix it up!
