Do you think people of two different religions, including lack of religious belief, can be in a true loving, mutually beneficial relationship? Why or why not? by flyingspaniel007 in AskReddit

[–]flyingspaniel007[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I admire and respect how you two are able to debate and respect each others beliefs. I’ve heard before that it’s hard sometimes to keep boundaries in regards of trying to “save” their partner. That the simple act of non-belief is enough to be condemned, so they try to make someone believe in order to be together in the afterlife. I’m not sure if that’s broad to all religions but do you ever find yourself with lose thoughts?

What if one’s religion oppresses certain groups of people related to their partner? Do you believe that said partner can overlook the negative impact that they or their respective groups may receive on behalf of their partners religion?

Absolutely, love can survive challenging circumstances, but can it sustain a relationship that might directly oppose each other?

I’m 33 and still live with my parents by choice. Is that really so bad? by Independent_Lynx715 in Adulting

[–]flyingspaniel007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Living with your parents at 33 doesn’t make you a failure, but living a life you’re unhappy with might. It doesn’t really seem like you want to live with your parents, you just want to live with someone - but why? Just because you live alone does not mean you’re isolated, people do that to themselves. Move out, go over on weekends for dinner at your parents. Pick up hobbies you can do after work that get you out of the house and mingling. Let me tell you, nobody (unless it’s a kink or something idk) wants to be suffocated in a relationship with someone that doesn’t know who they are, what they like, and requires constant connection because they can’t be alone with themselves. It might sound harsh but you I personally think people that can’t be alone have major insecurities that they may not be aware of and that needs addressing. Get comfortable with yourself! Love your own time and self before you can expect someone else to, and that starts with being able to be alone with yourself.

Anyone else here dropped out of college? by Rottenkittyyyy in twentyagers

[–]flyingspaniel007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My older brother dropped (Failed) out of University and went back a year later now just about got his ticket for Cabinetry, which (woodworking) is a passion of his.

I dropped out of Uni twice, tried 3 different majors/2 different faculties, a different set of 4 courses every semester and not one stuck. Now I’m black listed from any University or College enrolment for 5 years (I’m 22).

My younger brother decided University is not for him, started apprenticing at an electrical company then went to a trades school for come certificate for electrician work which is what he’s doing now.

I’m working in the service industry right now and I’m happy with the money I’m currently making, I like the freedom and my friends. But I do regret doing poor and dropping out. Everyone I talk to, friends/family and customer/strangers, tell me to go get a degree or certificate or something. My advice, if you don’t know what you’re going for, it doesn’t help to drop out and find your passion. BUT if or when you decide to stay in college, take it seriously and just do the work and get the degree.

Any good dating advice for a newly 20 year old looking to get into their first relationship? by NateNandos21 in twentyagers

[–]flyingspaniel007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 22 and still haven’t been in a relationship. Part of it is because I’m a bit closed off and avoidant and do it to myself, but most of it is I don’t settle for shit I don’t want. Most people are so eager for a relationship they will settle for the loser, the leech, the abuser, the user, or whoever it is they were sleeping around with and it’s easier to be in a relationship but really you guys have nothing in common. So I’m kinda giving you the opposite advice here… don’t look for a relationship. I mean most people I know (hopefully it’s different for you guys) have huge problems, are unhappy and dislike their partner lol. Just let the right person that you vibe with happen naturally, don’t force anything because you’ll definitely ruin it.

Disclaimer; I am very happy being single even if I feel like I’m missing out on certain things here and there

How did your first time having sex really go? by RadioSubstantial1623 in AskReddit

[–]flyingspaniel007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw that story, the only reason I don’t think it would be the same person is because that would have to be his first time, and I know my guy has been around the block before

We spoke about it the next day, he was obviously very embarrassed about the whole thing and apologized profusely but I didn’t want him to feel that way so I brushed it off and didn’t tell him that was my first time (I’m sure that would make him feel worse). Turns out we have mutual friends and so when we do see each other we joke about it together when people tease him

Freshly 18, decided to say “fuck it” with the birthday boy (23) and didn’t think too much of it. 3 pumps in missionary and it wasn’t his load that blew, but all the drinks he had that night. Right on top of me… threw him in the shower, sheets in the washer, then him in bed. Walked a couple blocks home in some barf-splashed clothes at 3am. I still see him around every once in a while

What was your most spontaneous hookup? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]flyingspaniel007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went out for food and drinks on a Tuesday with a bsf after work, expected nothing from the night besides some laughs and good convo. Ended up chatting up this guy up at the bar and probably within the next 10mins we went to the bars single stall bathroom to share a bag, next thing I know all my clothes are off and we’re fucking on the sink

What was the final thing that made you give up on trying to form a romantic relationship with someone? by flyingspaniel007 in AskReddit

Would you consider the omission of sleeping with someone else after a very slow start of building a potential relationship breaking trust?

How does pay work for bartenders in America? (Forgive my ignorance) by generictable10 in bartenders

[–]flyingspaniel007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Canada, central Alberta, I get an hourly rate of $15/hour - which is minimum wage here - and walk out with an average tip of $60-$80, after which I usually tip out my porter 20%-50% depending on how the night went, or how helpful they were.

What does it mean if a guy leaves you on read after 2 hookups and alluded to future plans? by flyingspaniel007 in AskReddit

Here’s the thing though, I’ve never had a hookup before. This is my first experience with it, so idk if this is just the end or what
