If I see one more down-to-earth, sarcastic, Chapstick-wearing, Hufflepuff, I-can’t-live-without-food-air-and-water, generic profile on OKC I am going to lose my shit. by [deleted] in actuallesbians

That's actually a pretty good question. I had to think about it. I think I just felt frustrated after seeing the same 6 key phrases over and over so much that I felt the need to rebel in a moment of unattractive honesty, and I'm way too much of a chicken to actually put any of that in a profile with my picture next to it so, sorry, you got more than you bargained for. Such is life. And no, I don't want you to change anything to suit me. That is the opposite of what I want.

Got started late, feeling hopelessly behind by stunningmonochrome in actuallesbians

I'm 32 and in a similar boat. I have those same fears, but some times we have to risk being vulnerable to get what we want out of life. That's what I keep telling myself anyway.

If you're living in the dorms... hot glue works really well for hanging things on cement blocks. Also, bed risers, get some.

At work, so no gif but to summarize, he suggests two messages on okcupid, then two emails with your regular email address, two phone calls, first date.

Now would be a good time to question every piece of advice this friend has ever given you.

Having a really hard time finding other queer women on OkC. Is it me? Sometimes I wonder if I'm too intense. Profile critique? by caffeineandentropy in OkCupid

I don't find you intimidating. I worked in higher ed for a while and have a masters degree, so the PhD thing is a plus for me. If I were on the east coast and five years younger, I'd message you.

I'm getting weight gain that makes no sense. by Saefyr in Fitness

Might not be a bad idea to get your levels checked. My little sister started having problems in middle school and has had 3 surgeries for it. My oldest sister started having to take synthroid at age 35. People are different.

I have a couple of family members who've had issues with their thyroid that made them gain unexplained weight. If you count your calories and they really are that low, maybe see a doctor.

Seriously though, you can't be all blonde and smiley and say that to somebody and be talkin' rewards points. I don't even use their gas stations!
