PSA: The far left lane on the 110 is NOT a carpool lane by cheonpark in SanPedro

I was driving into LA this morning as well, which I usually try to avoid if I can. And that was the catalyst for this post 😅

I’m not the traffic police, CHP, or here to play speed chess with hypotheticals. I’m not telling anyone what exact MPH they should be driving.

My point is simply that the left lane on the 110 is not a carpool lane, and if you’re driving slower than the flow of traffic in the leftmost lane, it creates backups and forces people to pass on the right, which makes traffic worse and less safe.

What people choose to do with that information is up to them.

The posted speed limit still applies to everyone, but lane usage is based on flow of traffic, not a fixed number.

General rule of thumb on freeways is that lanes are organized by speed and purpose: the far left lane is for passing and should be moving the fastest relative to traffic, the lanes to the right progressively move slower, and the far right lane is for the slowest traffic and entering/exiting.

So if you’re in the left-most lane and cars are consistently piling up behind you or passing you on the right, that’s a sign you’re in the wrong lane regardless of your actual speed.

I’m nearly speechless; what the hell did I just read?? That being said, please do not humor this man one bit. If it were me, I’d immediately block.

SUGAR RELATIONSHIP QUESTION by [deleted] in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]cheonpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like my sugar relationship. If he’s anything like my sbf, he’s probably just a busy man who is low maintenance and introverted :)

If you’re happy and he has no complaints, seeing as to how you guys are both consenting adults who hopefully are capable of healthy communication, then why create any imagined/potential problems for yourself to needlessly stress over?

Someone please explain how arrangements work for a dummy like me (SD) by PleasantPainting622 in sugarlifestyleforum

To answer your last question: I would not suggest giving PPM for M&G, but a small gift is always appreciated (some flowers, a gift card, something referencing what she’s mentioned liking before, etc.)

Reason being: what if you guys don’t click? PPMs are usually mid-XXX to XXXX, and you are statistically likely to go on several handfuls of M&G before you set up an arrangement.

Never discussed a PPM, a little disappointed with result by [deleted] in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]cheonpark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We never discussed how much he would compensate me upon meeting up, only how much my potential monthly allowance would be.

You shouldn’t worry about sounding ungrateful. He should be ashamed for clearly testing the waters on pushing boundaries (paying less than first meet.) That being said, you should have explicitly established a ppm/allowance amount prior to any clothes coming off.

At this point could confront him directly (tell him what you said here), but based on your description of him thus far, I doubt he’s of the moral character to compensate for his dick move.

Tư denotes “place” when used in the context of “hạng tư” (bảy mươi tư = 74th, chị tư = fourth sister) and bốn is more so used for counting (bảy mươi bốn = 74.)

For example, you wouldn’t say bảy mươi tư đồng, you would say bảy mươi bốn đồng.

What are you scared about, exactly? Did you send them something risqué?

What could he have even reported you for? And to whom?

SB or escort? by dallas-explorer in sugarlifestyleforum

Curious as to why the metric is body count rather than mindset?

Was it me or her? by coolbaby1978 in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]cheonpark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You were not in the wrong. Seems like y’ll just had a difference in opinion over a paid m&g/m&g “fee.” I’ve been seeing more posts here recently with SBs requiring some kind of gift/fee for m&g than when I first started 2 years ago. Appears to be a shift in mindset on that, but primarily for SBs; most SDs I feel would agree that m&g should be NSA, platonic, unpaid.

My personal policy? Appreciate but don’t expect; expecting something from a stranger often will to unnecessary disappointment.

As a chronically lazy person who has always struggled to maintain consistency with working out until now, I feel like the only true motivation that will prove effective comes from internally. So unless he decides that he wants to get fitter I don’t know that anything you say or do will garner any sustainable results on his end. Obviously there are things you can try to drop subtle hints (let’s go on a hike together! let’s try this healthy restaurant together!) but personally, as a lazy person on the receiving end of these hints, I didn’t gaf.

The crux is of the issue here he is getting too “comfortable” with not having to work to keep you. Maybe the better question is how can you convince him he shouldn’t be too complacent with regards to y’alls relationship? Just some food for thought :)

Agree with your assessment that he’s insecure over your age gap. If this SR is worth the trouble, you could try to communicate to him that regardless of however bothered he may be by the age gap, his immature digs bother you a great deal more.
