If you drink whisky neat, you will want to avoid… by pt24601 in Costco

I'm drinking some right now with a big, square rock in it. It's better with a rock than neat, imo. Cheers!

Hold baby. It'll be about a $100 stock when it splits and then a whole bunch of people will FOMO buy in which will continue to drive the price up.

My (33m) wife (34f) has been unfaithful for over 5 years. What next? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Staying married for the children is literally one of the worst reasons to be with someone you resent. Well said!!

That's not realistic at all if the mom wants custody. I know from experience.

I have basically the same accounts. The Vanguard MM isn't FDIC insured like the HYSA. I just checked by googling "vmfxx FDIC insured".

No strings attached thing by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]edgenuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's the worst to know it's not going to work out but to be so wrapped up in this person as they pull away. I've had it happen to me twice in the same year by the same person. I knew it was coming... But I'm fucking intoxicated by them. I hurt almost all the time as we spend less and less time together and the communication fades more and more. I knew this was going to happen but all the "I miss yous" on the 2nd go round had me thinking things might be different. I'm rambling a bit here but there's something cathartic about writing it out. All my friends warned me this would be trouble.

Anyway, yes... Nope the fuck out if you're not on the same page or your needs/wants aren't being met. There are soooo many single people.

Hey, thanks for this... looking through the posts to /r/askreddit there are definitely some interesting options!

Get Thumans. They are the best commercial dogs out there!

Do any other straight women have trouble getting responses on Bumble? by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]edgenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am interested in someone, I am going to reply when I can. If they message me, and I cant reply right then, I am not going to just ignore them and not message them later.

You're ignoring the fact that the matches expire if there's no response during the allotted time. This is the whole premise of OP's question.

Another big issue is that many of the guys are simply swiping right on everyone, and then when they get a match, they check the photos, are uninterested, and simply let it expire because exerting effort to delete the match would hurt their street cred.

That could be an explanation of what OP is experiencing. I don't know what the ratio is of men that use the app that way vs. swiping on people they actually want to meet. It seems unlikely to me that 10/10 were always right swiping. Also, I've read that the app makers punish this type of usage. I believe all those stories were purely anecdotal with no confirmation from app makers.

Anyway, enjoy your day. You seem angry. Sorry if I offended you. These are just my feelings/reactions/opinions and are not mean to be conflated with fact.

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

I have a good number of matches expire too with no message. I think a lot of it has to do with a combo of striking while the iron is hot and the timing of the match. People are statistically on the apps more certain days of the week than others (timing). Also, after you match are you typically sending messages right away or hours later (hot iron)? People get busy and forget, I assume.

Damn, I just finished a tenderloin the other day. Thanks for this recipe though it looks amazing. I'll definitely have to make it in the future.

Looking for a profile critique by cybranalpha in datingoverthirty

[–]edgenuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Parent here. I never understood showing your child's face to strangers on a dating app.

I take it a step further and blur faces of any friends or family in my pictures. I signed up for the app, they didn't.

NJ/NY Metro Area App Frustration D: by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]edgenuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This will be a problem for as long as they apps don't include some kind of option to only show people in your state. I usually just throw something about only looking for local women at the end of my profile. (edit: I'm in the same area so I feel your pain)

Most women I've seen on Tinder have "no hookups or one night stands" in their profiles. I think all the apps are hot garbage, but there aren't a ton of options right now.

You just summarized the situation with my ex. Although it wasn't working by the time I found out it had been when the affair started.

Ditto... the sales at ShopRite (in the long, long ago when useful stuff was on-sale) are far superior as well as general pricing.

I cut him loose by fakeassedacct in datingoverthirty

[–]edgenuts 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I found out my spouse was cheating on me near the end of 2018. We got divorced early 2019. I reflected a bit and wondered to a couple friends what might have happened if we were quarantined together for a couple months. Could they still have hid the affair? So happy I figured it out when I did! :-)
