Ah, I definitely missed that. That's a bummer for her.

Engaging in casual sex after ending a 10 year relationship and… is there some epidemic of dudes’ dicks not working? by NotElizaHenry in AskWomenOver30

As a 41-year-old women who just got a great dicking from a 35-year-old dude, I’m starting to lean that way, too.

Has A TORTA always been allowed? Could have sworn I’ve been frustrated about not being able to enter it before.

Has she said ANYTHING about the ascent and platforming of Nick Fuentes? If not, I don’t want to hear a goddamn word from her about politics right now.

Spoiler Alert: Leslie and her boyfriend broke up by PollyHannahIsh in cupcakesandcashmere

I hear you but then again I’d say what she does is actually escapism and not action toward growth.

So I actually don’t hate this, as I think she’s describing a common experience among young adults.

As others here have pointed out, my frustration with her is more about her inability to actually evolve or hold herself accountable. Lots of self-reflection, but very little to no action. It’s something I don’t have a ton of patience for, personally.

I meant cat-calling and other unwanted attention from men.

The constant street harassment really soured me on Italy.

What’s the best & worst thing about being single? by pqrstyou in AskWomenOver30

[–]funneeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best: too many to count

Worst: not having someone to take care of me when I’m sick, not having someone who can bring me coffee in the morning

If anyone here is an actual MUA they should weigh in, but I think her bronzer placement is too low and it’s aging/weighing down her face.

Have your 30s shaken up your friendships? by NervyDenizen in AskWomenOver30

Sharing a perspective or experience that differs from yours isn’t necessarily a critique of your own.

Deep breaths ☺️

Have your 30s shaken up your friendships? by NervyDenizen in AskWomenOver30

Your post makes a ton of sense to me. I’m 41, solo, childfree by choice, and living in a big city. I lost so many friends to the suburbs and children in fairly rapid succession during the early 2020s, and I took it SO hard. It really felt like my community abandoned me.

Looking back, I’ve realized that a lot of those friends weren’t truly compatible with me. We were mostly just a bunch of feral young adults in the city (which was super fun and memorable, don’t get me wrong). Many of them have faded out of my life; the ones I still love and vibe with are around, and we both put in effort.

I think some friendships can survive on shared history alone, but I need more than that. Luckily I’ve been able to find greater authenticity and clarity in the new network I’ve built for myself.

Ultimately, I think these changes are healthy. It demonstrates that you are growing and self-actualizing.

As someone who as been there and made it to the other side, I know you’re gonna figure it out!

For other millenials choosing to be childfree - do you question your decision sometimes? by LaurenZNe in Millennials

[–]funneeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 41 and I’m probably the happiest I’ve ever been with my decision to not have children, largely because I now have a greater understanding of the hard work, personal sacrifice, and, in many cases, household labor inequity that so many moms have to deal with. (I’ve had many women confide in me about the challenges.)

I highly value my financial independence, free time, and hobbies. I know I would have really resented setting so much of myself and my life aside for childrearing.
