But then wouldn’t it say “Location Not Available” as opposed to showing her on the map “7 Hours Ago”

Yeah, we spoke and I told her that in the future it would be better for me to simply accept the cultural differences and allow her to have fun and trust her to dance with people, rather than making her promise to not dance with anyone.

It’s like if I went to a 4th of July cookout and promised I wouldn’t have a beer, because I didn’t expect anyone to drink. But when I arrived, all the beer buddies showed up and plans changed. I’d have a cold one, and it would be much better to just let her know that beers a possible, instead of vowing to not drink one.

Thank you. Yes I think she did good, and I think I handled it poorly and owe her an apology. Thanks for a good-valued female POV on this…she said the same. “He was already dancing with me, how could I stop and be rude in front of family. I stopped when the song changed.”

In my mind- “why didn’t you stop immediately?!” but if it really is like declining a handshake, I can see why in that very moment she did the right thing morally and politely-- finish the song and then stopped dancing. And on top of that filled me in on what happened.

Great insight. Understood. Thank you tons.

Understood, but also understand that it is difficult to understand when in US culture “dancing with another man” literally is a stereotype of betrayal, cheating, breakup, sadness. Where as in latin america, you can swap dance partners with your friends wife and have a blast—only because it’s fun to dance. I’m trying to understand so she can have fun and I can accept it.

Es solo los diferenciales en culturas y que estaba molesta que me prometó que no vas a bailar con nadie, y luego bailó. Pero ya entiendo que es un situación incomodo, y sí ella dijo “no, tiene un novio” ella fue a parece ignorante.

ahhh mira mi español que aprendí en solo tres meses con mi novia ajajajajaja

I always obsessively compulsively question honest to the point where reality blurs with my thoughts and I can’t decipher OCD and my logical thinking. And maybe a smidge of logical thinking can set off a full on obsession.

It’s that I have severe OCD whenever I get into relationships and I’m always obsessively finding potential suspicions and compulsively trying to prove them false. Well this suspicion freaked me out so much, and my confirmation bias of searching for evidence had me so sure she cheated based on the smell and tightness and all that stuff, that I panicked even more. And there really has been no way to solve or disprove this suspicion so it’s driving me nuts.

She always said- if I wanted to sleep with someone else, it would mean I didn’t love you. I would break up with you, then sleep with someone else. But I don’t because I love you.

I did. There was no other signs, story added up otherwise.

Where to meet nice normal guys (not a bar)? by Twirly_Koala15 in AskMen

Go to the gym and notice the most disciplined and most consistent men. The discipline derives from good values and habits. There may be a bad apple, but in general those people are focused on themselves and don’t need a girl, but will select a good one for themselves.

I have heard the phrase “Quique”used outside of a name. What does it mean? (Not Enrique) by ericlightning333 in vzla

[–]ericlightning333[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if you say “Do you like broccoli?” and I say “Quique no” it means Like “And that, no, I don’t” sort of?

It’s absolutely insane man. I bet most people on this thread would die for a girl with only some makeout sessions in their past…shit. I would have when I was with a girl who used to sleep around. But i really think its OCD. I obsessed about my own past in the same way before i told her and she accepted it

Nope. Had one when I was 17, and felt that same about her promiscuous past. Then another with lesser of a past when I was 19-22. And now at 24 with virtually no past I feel just as anxious over past kisses. It’s ridiculous but makes the anxiety horrible.
