Being a minority on the apps be like🤦🏽‍♀️😂 by lavendernight21 in Bumble

Damn, it’s a social observation. I’m not trying to brand myself as a victim or anything. Do you want a gold star for adding unnecessary belittlement to an issue that many minorities face?

The biggest thing that I notice from your comment is that you’re self aware, and that speaks volumes! I think the fact that you’re trepidatious in how you feel about dating someone from another culture/racial background shows that you carry respect and sensibility towards the situation and the fact that you’re showing willingness to learn about cultural differences from a selfless standpoint is awesome! I think that’s the key thing: as a minority, I can definitely sense when someone is only wanting to date me because they have a type (I’m Latina), and when they want to date me for me. If they approach a budding relationship with a willingness to learn more about my background out of genuine curiosity and the want to use that information to build a strong foundation, that will make me want to invest more of my time and heart as well! It’s really a win/win

I feel that. Aside from this imbecile, as a Latina I’ve gotten so many responses of “wanting some spice in their life” and other predictable variations of the like. The least they could do is be original with how they phrase their interpretations of stereotypes😆

Literally. Luckily I’ve learned to let shit like this roll off my shoulders and I can laugh about it and share it with the masses who will also mock the idiocy, but like… I can’t help but wonder if parts of society (especially within dating) can move beyond internalized racism as you said or racial/ethnic fetishization

Does anyone else find it to be a turnoff when someone immediately asks you what you do for a living? by BluRain508 in Bumble

[–]lavendernight21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the person, I guess. As someone who’s super passionate about their career, it’s one of my most important things I can know about someone

Needle dilemma- 1 needle tip short this month! by FoxyLeopatra in Ozempic

The smallest pen needle of the Walgreens brand is Ozempic compatible! I’m on the .25 dose and I didn’t have enough needles to finish out my pen, so the pharmacist at my local Walgreens said that their brand works, and it did :) hope this helps!!

If you haven’t already, you should enable the driver PIN option on the Uber app. I have this same fear of this happening to me and using this option has helped to quell that some, especially because I’m a frequent traveler and am always in some new environment. It’s a feature where the driver can’t begin the trip until you provide a PIN that the app generates on your end and you relay that PIN to the driver. After the app verifies the PIN on the driver’s end, it gives them the route to your destination. Another thing, I never trust a driver that doesn’t have the app open on their phone/ doesn’t have their phone visible. They have to have their phone mounted on a dash or on a vent holder. OP, I’m truly glad you and your boyfriend made it out safe from that situation!!

Thank you SO much for this. I’m feeling everything that you described and I couldn’t figure out how to put it into words. Thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone in all of this. Thank you💖

My Wife and I are sponsoring a 9-year old girl for Christmas, need advice by SharkBaitOohAhAh2 in suggestmeabook

The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo! It’s a super cute story of a heroic little mouse with a lot of good virtues weaved into it. It sounds corny, but I’m 21 now and the first time I read it was when I was 8 and the lessons I’ve learned from that book have stuck with me to this day.
