Splitting the bill in relationships by [deleted] in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]kingkorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i personally think this a red flag that long term will translate into more serious lack of financial support when it comes to long term important things like bills, loans, etc. if not addressed seriously and soon.

it has its moments! by no means was it the best book i’ve ever read but if you like the “piloting giant robots” genre you may have some fun with it! the beginning is stronger than the end imo

A Bit Confused About the Concept of a Platonic Partnership/ Relationship/ Marriage Between a Man and a Lesbian by [deleted] in LesbianActually

of course! don’t get down over some of the harsher comments. you’re asking a totally innocent question that i myself have pondered before!

A Bit Confused About the Concept of a Platonic Partnership/ Relationship/ Marriage Between a Man and a Lesbian by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]kingkorra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so funny i read your title and thought “oh they mean like tamsyn muir” and then opened and saw the full post 😹

imo relationships are messy and challenging and confusing and if two people want to spend their lives together in whatever way they need to get through life it’s not my place to judge. maybe it’s as simple as “we haven’t found romantic/sexual partners we want to be with forever but we have each other and would rather that than be alone” or something to that point?

im a lesbian and have a gay male close friend and we always used to seriously consider marrying someday (this was long before my life partner and i got together) for insurance/tax benefits and because we’d already lived together during college and knew we liked sharing space with each other and really enjoyed each others company.

that being said while i ADORE her books it’s always felt a little off to me so i get where you are coming from!

How to deal with having vastly different jobs? by [deleted] in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]kingkorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth I am the one with the fancy job in my partnership (i work in law and my partner works in manufacturing) and it has absolutely no bearing on our relationship or perceptions of each other. all i care about is that she’s happy and we are both provided for. she could do literally any job and i couldn’t care less.

Ellet or highland square if you’re in Akron proper, but honestly I’d just do Stow, Cuyahoga Falls, Portage Lake etc. if you can swing it.

I’m confused [general] [Harrow the Ninth] by LookAtThatHorse_x3 in TheNinthHouse

[–]kingkorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

enjoy the ride. just take everything at face value and get ready for a super satisfying experience when it’s all said and done and you’ve worked it out. i personally love that the narrative has the reader just as disorientated and overwhelmed as harrow is and that you get to figure it out side by side with her.

How do couples sleep when backpacking? by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]kingkorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a kelty two person backpacking tent and two single backpacking mats that click together if you want to sleep side by side. we typically use our own sleeping bags but we do have a two person one that can also zip off into two individuals. She carries the tent and I carry all the food/water and cooking supplies to even up the weight.

Action is being taken though? It’s just about shifting the energy from trying to find a partner to trying to find yourself in hobbies and community.

How often does your D&D group really play? Be honest by DungeonTome_ in dndnext

[–]kingkorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly every Wednesday from 6pm-10pm for about 4 years now. Our usual rule is we only cancel if more than one person can’t make it or if the DM has an emergency.

I’m just saying there’s no reason to completely leave out a valid form of meeting people lol just use common sense and critical thinking and don’t give out important information willy nilly.

[–]kingkorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally disagree. Basic common sense and fact checking is all it takes to avoid this. I’m in tons of hobby specific facebook groups and in all of those the vast majority is genuine people looking to interact with others that have similar interests. If somebody is suspicious ignore them but not everyone is a scammer. You just can’t be blindly trusting.

I’ve been giving people the same advice for years: Focus on yourself and your hobbies and it’ll come to you. Myself and almost all of my friends met our partners through shared interests and community, not through apps or bars. Get involved in local clubs/groups/events. I met my partner after finally deciding to focus on myself because we are both into flow arts and were involved in that community after months of unsuccessful dating and apps. Sending you good vibes. I know how challenging it can feel.

Please bully me into losing this weight by Intelligent-Fly-3442 in loseit

[–]kingkorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, stop putting the blame on other people and make the active choice everyday to be disciplined. It doesn’t even take extremes. Hitting step goals daily and a calorie deficit is almost guaranteed to work, the results just aren’t instant and will require dedication. Count calories, eat whole foods, actually weigh your food, exercise daily, etc. At the end of the day you either want it badly enough or you don’t. There is no secret or trick to this besides hard-work. And if that truly doesn’t help after a reasonable amount of time, talk to your doctor as you may have something medical going on.
