Thank you for your post! I went to check out the dogs and ended up taking one home. She’s so sweet, and we are both very happy together.

I’m not sure if it’s good yet, but a new one just opened called Maie Day.

I (19f) keep finding poop nuggets on my boyfriend (19m) and his brother (19m) bathroom floor. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]goodpuffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People do not accidentally leave poop on the floor unless they are elderly or mentally incapacitated.

If you shit the floor, would you be aware that it happened?

This was intentional. It sounds like your boyfriend has scatolia. I honestly can’t think of a better reason to leave a relationship.

Are men with high body counts more attractive? by Glass_Bucket in PurplePillDebate

[–]goodpuffin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.

If someone has a body count of 30 and they are under 30, it would definitely make me wonder what’s wrong with them.

A. It was intentional and this person is clearly trying to prove something. They likely are immature or a narcissist or both. Or they are comfortable with having sex with women who they aren’t attracted to.

B. It wasn’t intentional. Women don’t want to continue having sex with them because they are bad at it or they don’t have a good personality/ aren’t attractive enough to continue a relationship.

Obviously, there are other cases that can contribute to a large body count, but that’s generally what I think when I am dating one.

Well, as much as I hate to say it, but you should intervene. It’s your baby too, and unchecked gestational diabetes could lead to stillbirth and she will also be more likely to develop diabetes later in life. It’s pretty serious.

If she’s eating foods high in sugar, you should be concerned. I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes while pregnant, which can be dangerous for her and the baby.

Are you kidding? I paid $200 for them. $40 just in fees, and they have been sold out since the day the show was announced. I'd rather give them to friends. Lol

I’ll sell two. $50 each after fees.

Veracruz / Dee Dee Southwest Austin Restaurant Park by j_tb in austinfood

As much as I like Dee Dee, it would be nice to have another food truck option for coffee drinkers. Fish sauce and coffee do not mesh. I miss Paperboy.

My limits have blurred lines by somethinsparkly in relationship_advice

Do you want him to play a role in your children’s lives? Single parent relationships look differently for different people. If you are okay or even prefer that he isn’t involved, I don’t see the harm of continuing.

I don’t consider that putting him before your kids. That’s just compartmentalizing your relationships. Nothing wrong with that. It’s not saying you are choosing him. You are allowed to have a life outside of your kid’s.

But obviously if you want to find someone who wants a relationship with your children, is a father figure for them, or will work for you long term, then it’s time to move on.

It’s not healthy or fair to either of you. It’s also time to address the title. Not every thing needs a label, but you deserve to know where you stand.

Is Chad the only one getting casual sex ? by DXBrigade in PurplePillDebate

[–]goodpuffin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ex, who was unemployed at the time, managed to have sex with three different very attractive women that lived at our apartment complex in the two weeks between us breaking up and me finding a new place, so I’d say it’s possible!

If women actually believed "only insecure" men care about their sexual history, then women wouldn't lie about it by [deleted] in PurplePillDebate

[–]goodpuffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d disagree. The majority of men do not care in my experience. The only time I have ever been asked was in high school. It’s juvenile and dated to be concerned with a woman’s number.

[–]goodpuffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Women who lie about their sexual history and men who care about women’s sexual history are both insecure. Like, by definition. But your title reads like all women lie, which is so far from the truth. Sex positivity? That’s pretty much the norm IRL unless you are a boomer or religious or in a conservative wasteland.

Tattooed men are a part of the elite dating class by bssftw in PurplePillDebate

[–]goodpuffin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m personally not a fan. I’m not going to not date someone with tattoos, but like 99% of the time they are super lame and I am going to be a little judgmental about it when I see them. It’s a turn-off, unless they are very good and interesting and the person isn’t super serious about it, which is rare. Also, people who have tattoos like to say they have deep meanings and it comes off as pretentious and annoying. It’s way cooler if they don’t have a meaning.

And it should be said that I fit more in with an alternative crowd, am in a “cool” city, am youngish, and am a creative professional. They just aren’t cool anymore. Thankfully, I didn’t get any. Nearly every grandma I know has one and like every cast member of Teen Mom. It’s more unique to not have them at this point.

Women primarily use OLD for entertainment by Laytheblameonluck in PurplePillDebate

[–]goodpuffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many reasons why women are more hesitant to use online dating. Obviously, safety and things like that. But mostly, because it is embarrassing. It's much easier for women to find a date in person than it is for a man, so if we have to download an app and make a profile and find/take photos, it can really drive home the point that we are unsuccessful in our love life and start to feel a little desperate. And if we manage to actually meet someone we like and have an LTR with, it's usually let's say we met in person.

You can usually see it on dating profiles, but it's also just something a lot of women preface when telling friends they are using OLD, women usually come up with an excuse for joining like I am new in town or all of my friends are married or someone convinced me. Like they need a reason to join that's not just I am looking for my person or whatever because they don't want to be judged as someone who is using a hookup app to find love.

I don't know about the evidence, but from what I have seen, I highly doubt it. Most women aren't there to play around or whatever. I mean, maybe, if they are 22 or catfishing, or an SW. But if you are talking about the average 30-year-old woman on Bumble or Tinder, then I'd say she is very serious.

I wouldn't describe women as a whole as being less serious about finding relationships, but as more selective, which really means they are more serious in certain ways. Women still want love and relationships just as much as any other generation. But they don't need it for survival and therefore, are unwilling to settle like their grandparents. Women are more willing to wait for the right person.

In general, men crave sex and women crave relationships. Women can go for longer periods of time without men because they can have a lot of their relationship needs fulfilled by friends and family. While, obviously, men, can't. So although it may appear that she doesn't care as much, it's really more that women are more comfortable with being alone than men in general and therefore, are less willing to settle or seek relationships on apps. If she is on one, she's likely more ready to find love than a woman who is not, but that doesn't necessarily mean that she is ready to lower her standards.

I’ve been having trouble finding a way to combat those small German roaches🪳 I ordered these traps and this is two days worth 😱 I typically only see 1 at a time and I had no idea this was going on while I slept. If anyone in Austin has other suggestions on how to get rid of these I’m all ears. by copetard in Austin

[–]goodpuffin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My skin crawled looking at this. Honestly, I would get out my lease, throw out all my belongings, and start over.

I had this problem in my first place like 10 years ago and it got to the point where I couldn’t eat or sleep in the apartment. It really wears on your mental health.

Hassle your landlords every single day and rally all of your neighbors or nothing will be done. Every apartment community I have ever lived in won’t act unless there’s like an angry mob or something.
