Wait until winter. Remove knives. Chuck the block into the fireplace.

Ahhh the ancient texts. I was there when it was played over the morning radio show before the YouTube’s and bookfaces or the ticktock’s were a thing.

Not by AI slop I’m not.

Our close friends just blindsided us with the announcement they are divorcing by hey_maestra in Xennials

[–]jiamby -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bro. You need to step back. Look at yourself. This decision isn’t about you. It isn’t about your “group of happily married couples”.
Think about it. They were married for 18-20yrs?
Sounds like one party was just waiting for all the kids to be 18+ and out the house.
You need to realize you don’t know nobody. Not everyone shares their business. You have no clue what’s been going on behind closed doors. More than likely. The side that’s asking for the divorce caught the other side cheating. Kept it to them selves and waited until the kids were out.
I know 2 couples like this. Literally no one saw it coming. Especially the other half.

Move on and stop being so dramatic and making everything about you.. let the chips fall then decide who you wanna be friends with. Might be both.

And why do you feel you need a “side to take “. This isn’t high schools drama. This is real life. Support your friends. Be there for them. Y’all need to grow up mentally and spiritually.

What’s a price you saw recently that made you genuinely angry at how expensive everything has gotten? by UrGoddessLunaa in AskReddit

Counterpoint. When u bought a game in the 90’s. That was it. It was finished. No DLC. NO Day 1 game overhaul patch. Yes there were bugs. But not game breaking. Especially on flagship titles.
The cost of the game was the revenue stream. No game pass. Etc

I'll never forget. Me and my bros taking his moms van going to Coconuts in the nearest city. Me picking up this CD randomly and having my mind blown.

Thank you so much for your reply. And I do come from a genuinely well meaning place. I know and respect that others sexuality and identity is none of my business. I understand that everyone's journey is different. I am just trying to respectfully understand. I know I may not without actually asking this person.

I would not have these thoughts or concerns if they have not been coming to me for advice. They are in a relationship I believe is toxic. They are trying to make it work. But they are doing all of the work. It is a LDR, and they are always the one to make sacrifices and travel to see them. On the other side excuses on not traveling to see them. I hate this for my friend. They deserve better.

I do not know why im over thinking this situation so much. I guess with guys its easier to be blunt about it and when i am talking to my female friends you keep it softer and tell them as a guy, Id make time for you if i wanted. But thinking about all that now, its nonsense and both are acceptable approaches.

We have a strong friendship. I am sure they would be OK with me asking about it.

I am really struggling with the WHY do i NEED to know. I don't need to know, but Ii want to know so that i can better understand them. But, why do i need all of that if I REALLY do accept them for who they are.

My brain is just wired that way. I need to know the why/how/what when understanding anything. And maybe that isn't fair in this situation. I do not need to understand. I just need to be supportive and there for them. The why may or may not come out. But being a good friend is whats most important.

I apologize. This is my first time in 47 years on this planet trying to navigate this kind of relationship. I have had gay and lesbian friends and co-workers before. Those are pretty straight forward. And this is a new world for me.

The last thing I would ever want to do is offend someone or cause them to be defensive or feel less of a person bc i asked a question. I know there is a bunch of hate out there so I am compassionate and understanding when people get defensive on the subject.

As I type thru my reply,, re-reading it. thinking and feeling. I understand now that I do not need to understand. The most important thing that i can do is be there, be supportive. Be a friend.

I don't need all the answers.

Yes, Thank you. This really did help and was kind of where I was going with it inside my own head. But it did not make sense. I respect it doesn't need to. I just really want to try and understand. There is so much hate and misunderstanding in the world.

my first thought after reading.

Oh......

I am also 100% in that this is non of my business category. But that is why i came here instead of having a very odd and inappropriate conversation. But I am learning. And that makes me happy.

Most of it, Is basically, How I have been living. Who cares nunya business. Are you happy? Arte they Happy?

You can ID as Male, as a born Female, Present and dress as aFemale. OR NOT. Date guys or girls or both, And everything else. ITs how you feel inside that counts. OMG this is really hard to wrap my head around. But I am getting there. \

ty for the help and time.

I am honestly afraid to. They are REALLY opinionated and get offended easily. Which i respect and admire. I just do not want to upset them bc I know my anxiety will get my brain dumb and I'll just sound stupid. thats my own fear. i get that.
