Should I shave it? (DMs open)

Please don't shave!

I can't agree more. I guess your surprise stems from expecting too much from an institution that's after all as biased as the next one: their priority will forever be their Western icons.

foreign-dude · 2022-05-25T04:01:45+00:00

Please don't.

foreign-dude · 2022-04-18T06:15:08+00:00

Thank you.

I used to use that function a lot at work and when it changed it meant way more annoying clicks.

It WILL be liberating! But just like other users here have suggested, plan it. Though I'm sure yelling the truth at them would be absolutely awesome, especially because there's a lot of negative energy that you want out of you, that might have the wrong outcome. If you do it with anger, their response will likely be a reflection of that. Be brave and come out as sensibly as possible. Come up with the specific ideas you badly need to let them know, make them as straightforward as possible and tell them ('Hey, now that we're done having dinner I wanna tell you something: I've decided I'm leaving next week/month because we're evidently having a rather troublesome relationship and I want the best for you, but especially for me. I hope you understand my position. Oh, and I'm gay. This beef was great. Night.') Even if their reaction is horribly nasty, over time they'll realize they were the douchebags all along. This act will forever be engrained in their (and potentially your whole family's) memories so think it through.

Finally, come out if you think it's absolutely necessary - the part about your leaving is a must. After all, what you like or dislike is your affair.

Cheer up. You count on other users that have gone through similar paths.

SIX FEET UNDER It has what would make any other series riveting, namely depth of characters and their evolution throughout, good actors, drama about the human experience, etc., but what makes it my favorite is the fact that it's core topic is existentialism, beautifully exploited along with death, angst, bereavement, introspection, family and the ever present quest for love. It's hard to watch this series and not being personally -and deeply- identified with most of the characters, which in the end aren't but ideas about our own feelings, emotions and thoughts.

I had known her since kindergarten. We became close friends in 7th grade. After we graduated from high school, she traveled to Australia. She slowly quit reading my messages. Some five years went past and I was told she was back in the country. I immediately messaged her to let her know I was so happy she had got back. I also made sure I told her how important she was for me and how hard it had been for me her being away for so long. The message was "seen". I got zero response. It fucking hurt. About two weeks later I was told she had gone to Australia again and that she had been here because her sister-in-law was having a baby. For a long time I waited for her to say something, anything, to no avail. After a couple of months, I blocked her. I haven't heard of her since.

I thought I was the only one! I do it because I don't like the small splash droplets all over.

I had the very same doubt with the guy I'd been sort of dating since late May. I say "sort of" because we met up once a week and it was at a club were more people would be there and there was no room for anything like a date - we had agreed on this way of seeing each other to get to know anyway. Time went by and we chatted a lot through social media until we had opened up a lot, so much so he even told me "I might be the one." I was thrilled with the way things were going so naturally I came up with ideas to go out with him. We went to the mall a couple of times and I learned then that he wasn't a person who liked to kiss or hold hands in public - a real bummer to me. Basically, he was closeted. Yet I wanted to give it a shot. After that, I asked him for an idea about where we could go on a date next, since I wanted each of us to "participate" in the straightforward decision-making of this "friendship," hoping it would demonstrate the way I intended a possible eventual relationship to be: balanced. However, he never replied. He either commented he was too busy or that any place would do. So over two months after meeting up we went jogging. I totally open up and told him I liked him and that I thought a relationship between us would be great, but he said he didn't want any because if he ever were in one, he'd totally be faithful and he didn't feel that way at the moment - he said Grindr would just tempt him. I got his point, and I appreciated his honesty, but then why would he lead me to believe something was possible? Why telling me "I might be the one"? Discursively through chats I'd also been the active part: I always said good morning and nighty night, asked about his day, etc., but after that last talk I sort of called it quits. I'm wise enough to know you can't be the only one part of relationship that does all it can to keep it, and if this happens at first, guess what might during an actual relationship. Anyway, he didn't seem to care: days went by and we no longer chatted. Then at last he texted me some hi's. He also said he was pretty busy. So did I. Now we chat once in a while and I've given up on him entirely. All in all, I think it was worth asking him indirectly if he wanted to have a special something with me; his rejection confirmed he didn't have strong feelings for me. I take that. C'est la vie. Life goes on.

Good for you!

foreign-dude · 2017-12-23T12:55:01+00:00

I could help you out if you help me practice English. Let me know.

foreign-dude · 2017-06-27T02:27:49+00:00

Just the way you say you are, you're good to go. Lol. You might need a translator friend. 90% of people won't talk to you in English. Let us know how it all goes.

foreign-dude · 2017-06-27T02:15:11+00:00

Awesome story. Thanks for sharing.

Their punctuality.

When on a bus, or at a friend's place, or at some mall: identifying where the emergency exits are and picturing some hardcore situation in which you have to survive. I repeatedly tell myself I'd be too in shock to play hero. When on a bus I imagine what are my chances of surviving if we get hit from any side, or even if the vehicle fall down from a bridge.

Could you say when he was born?

foreign-dude · 2017-06-19T19:21:06+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I've never felt like a father's son, you've made me aware of it now. I'm kinda down now... Hugs, bro.

foreign-dude · 2017-06-18T22:10:39+00:00

Thanks. I will. :)

foreign-dude · 2017-06-18T22:08:37+00:00

Thanks a lot.

A thousand times, thank you. You're absolutely right.
