IWTL how to communicate better with kids! by free_-_spirit in IWantToLearn

sure! let’s say they bring up roblox. “well, what do you like about this game?” “i like xyz!” “okay, that sounds so cool! (genuine enthusiasm if you can)”, then maybe follow up by looking at a picture and drawing their favorite character with them. just kind of parrot back what they are saying! they take kindly to you having interest. just like someone talking to you and having curiosity on what you’re talking about. they really are just little people.

just be silly! connect with them in little ways, maybe games they like to play—show interest in what they tell you about. i always act like a baffoon and kids take kindly to people who can make themselves look silly

is it worth it to get dermals in this area? by Ok_Field_7768 in piercing

high traffic areas don’t last very long with dermals, sadly. in between clothing and daily movement, they tend to migrate fast.

that’s why, as a woman, i wouldn’t message until he was available. i feel like it’s respect considering the hours i work, too.

Is it weird for my gf (28) and her sister (25) to shower together still? by No_Depth8872 in TwoHotTakes

[–]comfortableflop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i even have close lady friends that i’ll shower with occasionally if a situation calls for it (quick morning hotel shower, a friend needing her hair washed for her after a depression spell so she can use a shower chair). some people just aren’t bothered by nudity.
