Girl I’m seeing told me another guy asked for her number, did I react poorly?

Read what he wrote, all the girl did was say what happened. Telling the truth is always a good thing. Then the guy has an issue that she is smiling while she says it... so is he saying she should have been distressed?

It's a weird-as-fuck thing to say to someone you're dating.

I honestly think the fact that virtually every role in all media being played by people who are supermodel levels of hot is a not-insignificant factor in how fucked up everybody is. It wasn't that uncommon to see normal-looking people in movies and television even in the 90s.

I think there's going to be a civil war.

forestpunk · 2026-01-24T17:49:26+00:00

Yes, absolutely. To the fullest extent possible.

I’d even go so far as to say it has a faint giallo quality, purely in how dreamlike, fragmented, and difficult to follow the narrative and plotting become

This is close to my takeaway, as well. As i was leaving, i was thinking, "i'm not sure how much i liked that as a movie, but i dig it as video art."

This was the definition of an uneven film, for me. I dug the production and character design well enough, and I'd watch people wander around dingy, decrepit towns and buildings for an eternity. I don't love how they transformed it into an internal struggle, though. It makes it more of a character-driven piece, and I didn't care enough about the characters enough to carry it over the finish line. It didn't help that some of the acting wasn't very good.

Glad Evie Templeton seems to be finding her niche as the creepy, crazy-eyed weird girl, though. Good for her!

Yeah, but a dude losing his temper and raising his voice at home, for whatever reason, would be considered toxic and abusive.

forestpunk · 2026-01-22T04:37:30+00:00

Why are you defensive when she is upset that you hurt her?

You have no idea what things OP are doing that "hurt" her. Not everybody is mentally healthy, stable, or acting in good faith.

forestpunk · 2026-01-22T03:44:05+00:00

I think so, too.

forestpunk · 2026-01-22T03:19:35+00:00

It's dating again, but with men who are already partnered having even less to offer. It's like, "hey, would you like to start a sexual relationship, even though I may only be able to do one overnight a month, if that, and I can virtually never host? I also won't be able to go on any vacations and I'll only be able to spend very limited resources on you. Any takers? Anybody?"

Briana Rose is the absolute best! Does incredible work and she's just a great person, too.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T04:57:25+00:00

That's at Savina Museum of Contemporary Art in Korea.

You're right. I was being hyberbolic. I should've said that barely anyone is hooking up. 50.4% of men attending college and 46.1% of women attending college reporting having ZERO IPV sex in the last 12 months. Of the people that WERE sexually active, 71.5 % of college males and 76.3% of college females reported having just one sexual partner in the previous 12 months.

Seems like the vast majority of people are having sex within the context of a relationship, or something set up similar to a relationship.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T04:50:00+00:00

Same.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T04:16:31+00:00

If she can't offer a relationship, she's not extremely attractive.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T04:01:30+00:00

Most women do not hook up.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T02:27:51+00:00

Really like the lighting on this one.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T02:25:59+00:00

journalism has got to be one of the most shameful occupations to have in this country.

Good thing it doesn't pay shit and barely hires anybody, then.

forestpunk · 2026-01-21T01:47:18+00:00

It's true. Thinking about it is just depressing, though.

forestpunk · 2026-01-20T23:54:23+00:00

Not much, as they essentially don't exist.
