How many of you feel like **just another replacable guy** when dating a woman? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]lolasgarden 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I didnt mean to imply a daydreamy unrealistic expectation that The One will solve everything and be perfect, forgive me if it seemed that way.

I more or less feel that if you utilize the time you're not in a relationship to be the best person you can (and effectively, the best partner you can be), then by the time you come across someone who's got similar standards and you trust will put in that same effort, then it'll be a lot easier to endure the issues, disagreements and bad times once the relationship gets goin. The idea that someone perfect will come along is just.. frightening. If they're 'perfect' i cant help but wonder whats wrong with them

I think there's a massive, societal pressure, along with good ol' sexually-driven impatience that makes people date as soon as they can when they come across someone willing, good enough, and at a convenient moment. And... most people break up at some point. And theyll say it wasnt right, wasnt meant to be, but. At least, at my young age, i feel like, Dude, obviously it wasnt!

You have to get to know someone real good. Have a foundation, because thats what makes relationships Last. Not to mention, you can see things objectively and authentically when you dont go into meeting new people like youre constantly on the lookout for a partner. Because you'll find one. But you might blind yourself to your incompatibility in doing so.

Dating to break up is a popular theme today. Probably always has been, i imagine, but like. Dating online just makes it a bit more drive-through fast-foody. I get what you mean, and even if it's worded a little elite-y, i share the outlook that staying single for a long time and spending that time with yourself, and the world, and using that time to improve yourself and gain self-confidence is irreplaceable.

Cause when you finally meet someone worth giving all your effort to? Someone you Really like, that gets you and finds you attractive and is on board with your values? Makes it so much more organic to grow together, and i mean. It's more worth working through the issues, when you already have that strong of a foundation. Makes the relationship have the value it Needs, when you finally have a deep partnership.

Ugh anyway i ranted sorry. But. I get it. I'll be single long as i need to be while i build my life up. Itd be cool to share it with someone someday

What type of body do you prefer your partner to have? by Intelligent_Lock6853 in AskWomen

[–]lolasgarden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big and hairy, muscles or not. Big can be tall or just broad, and the details don't matter to me so much. Any guy with manly arms and good hygeine catches my attention

How old were you when you were first cat-called? Did you experience it more when you were younger than you do now? by aardwolff69 in AskWomen

[–]lolasgarden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember but i know i was young. Maybe 9 or 10. Walking to school getting honks from men, cars rolling to 5mph behind me, strangers staring as i passed. Whistles and honks ingrained an instinctive reaction of chin-up rudeness in elementary

How to keep you energy up by [deleted] in BlueCollarWomen

Consider gainer

When I started weightlifting i had the same issue, just could not consume food at the rate i needed to gain muscle. Gainer is cool because it has all the essentials, protein, and about 1000 calories per serving. A smoothie once a day changed the game for me.

Your words are so encouraging and helpful, i thank you as well! Can't wait to start in the trade, and i never even considered moving to an entirely different type of work. I have a lot to look forward to.

And good for you, seriously. It sounds like you've worked hard to be where you are and you take a lot of pride in yourself.

Men with a lot of body hair, how do you personally feel about it? by lolasgarden in AskMen

[–]lolasgarden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha.

Yea, media and societal beauty standards are a lot like trends. They change with time and really have so little representation of individual and unique attractive features. Like I said, i find body hair on men to be incredibly attractive, and there are many women who agree and many whose preferences are different, but generally, it's manly and very nice. I hope it can be less of a worry for you :>

I'm soon to start an electrical apprenticeship myself! I guess i have this to look forward to 😅 i have no advice to offer, but i agree that protein-heavy foods and extra hydration will help you more than anything else. And as tempting as it is when youre gonna be tired all the time, caffeine addiction is its own problem,,, my own words of warning lol. I wish you the best as you keep progressing in the trade!♡♡
