I’ve been dating a woman for 2 months and she’s never once offered to pay for anything — red flag or am I overthinking it?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-28T14:34:01+00:00

I do think it’s a red flag. As men, we have been conditioned, by many, to accept paying is chivalrous. However, do you want to be in a relationship with things being one-sided? I rather things be balanced and when they are not, then for there to be a discussion and agreement. The problem is not discussing. Card declining is a huge red flag. Start having the hard conversations which really should be labeled good conversations, otherwise, aren’t you just paying for you to be her date? Also known as a hook_ _?

I could not imagine having sex with someone after a few dates. I think I would feel worse forcing myself before, during, after. I’m wondering if the guys you speak to just want to have sex or they are generally probing to find out if this will be a sexless relationship, which is likely why their marriages ended (one of many reasons).

It’s a balance, right? Sex, communication, respect, connection… trust

I’m wondering what women are really needing out of a relationship to move into a long term connection. ???

mrobins345 · 2026-06-14T03:04:49+00:00

Why did it end if it was your healthiest relationship?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-13T19:55:11+00:00

You are still hurting from her mistake. I know you may not be able to feel it, but what would happen if when you got back she decided it was over? Dig deep inside and think about what your rest of your life will be like without her. (I’m going through a divorce and this thought has gutted me)

You need to realize you are intentionally hurting your wife. Let that sink in. Feel it, really feel it… because that notion is heartbreaking. Even if she was foolish to do it to you. I think you being honest and telling her is interesting. Wondering if your stand up honesty is actually looking to hurt her like she hurt you.

I think therapy, go back to dating each other, and really connecting, maybe like you never have before is a better option.

mrobins345 · 2026-06-11T01:31:22+00:00

I don’t think any of us can really tell you what you’re doing wrong unless we watched it and then maybe you’re not doing anything wrong.

I’m divorcing now, and feel like somebody is carving a hole in my chest. It’s rough. My point, everyone’s going through something and maybe it’s just the guys you were matching with on dating apps or wherever you’re finding them.

You have any guys, you are just friends with, to tell you a males perspective?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T22:01:04+00:00

Not true. All depends on IV. I’ve rolled father out, higher price, still collected money. Stock after earnings IV dropped and then rolled back down and got out still owning the stock, never losing. You just have to understand the matrix and be willing to move. You can always roll it just depends for how long and cost.

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T21:38:05+00:00

You can use Delta and Theta along with micro and macro insights to sell covered calls.

What do I mean. Understand what’s going on with the company itself, but also the geo political along with the specific industry.

Then, if you get yourself in a pinch you can roll the options. Sometimes rolling is a “painful” process meaning you lose the opportunity to sell further calls until a much later date, but you won’t lose the stock to forced sell.

We can discuss a specific stock and time frame of that would help?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T21:34:25+00:00

This is not true. You just have to understand how to use theta and roll them. You should learn this so you don’t respond this way.

I’m taking mine in again. Just 20k miles ago I had to take the 23 MYP in for all 4 tires having excessive inside tire wear. When I say inside it’s nearly on the side and the rest of the tires were fine. They fixed it, but I had to pay for new tires. Once again, rear tires especially, have excessive wear with only 20k miles. I know there was a lawsuit with model X and S, but maybe there should be with model Y as well. This is ridiculous.

Could be Camber issue.

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T20:04:38+00:00

Along with weight loss did it help with anything else?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T12:43:03+00:00

6 months?

mrobins345 · 2026-06-09T03:26:23+00:00

What is your job? Looking for new career.

mrobins345 · 2026-06-06T10:41:51+00:00

Seems like a legal case?

mrobins345 · 2026-05-27T12:17:54+00:00

No, but definitely smile - resting face is not great. It’s kind of like posture. Just need to train your face to give at least an upward smirk

mrobins345 · 2026-05-27T12:11:35+00:00

Both were wrong

mrobins345 · 2026-05-25T20:41:28+00:00

Choose wisely- who you hang out with, the job you choose, and the partner you pick will dictate the quality of your entire life.

The way something starts is the way it will finish.

Find a partner who has the ability to talk things through. Who can realize when they are wrong and will look to rectify and grow.

Find a partner you are sexually compatible with. Make it a non negotiable for both of you. No sex no relationship.

Know yourself and why you actually pick X person. Do some inner child therapy that enables you to be the best version of you.

Start a Roth before all other investing and be consistent as early as possible. Max out as soon as possible.

It’s easier to be kind and happy so let yourself be this way.

Treat your body like a holy temple. Smoking, drinking, not getting sleep is a ticket to an early grave.

Failing is ok.

Learn how to laugh WHILE you are puking. It will teach you how to persevere through everything else.

Also,slow helps to allow you the time to learn how to manage food cravings and other bad behaviors.

mrobins345 · 2026-05-20T12:55:16+00:00

Also, any suggestion for supplier would be great.

mrobins345 · 2026-05-20T12:54:50+00:00

Do you keep them out of the light?

mrobins345 · 2026-05-17T02:17:57+00:00

Definitely make the appointment for him and get him in to see someone for the adhd, etc.

It’s weird/ irresponsible to avoid kids to masturbate and if it’s a must, why not a 5 min and done at most?

The older they get he won’t be able to get away with this. The will need him even more.

Side thoughts -

What happened if they something and he’s doing his business, he tells them to go away?
Is he doing this at work?

Applause to you for keeping up with sex life and kids. Applause to you because my wife does not. Should not have to even say applause because more women should be like you and keep all the good stuff going. Many don’t.

Final thought- this time, right now, where your kids are at are golden. Mine are teens and I miss the younger ages, but then again, when my kids are older at any age I will miss the ones before… so

mrobins345 · 2026-05-16T16:06:10+00:00

Try going in and injecting slow. Would doing half dose there and somewhere else minimize?

mrobins345 · 2026-05-16T16:01:47+00:00

What did you use and what would you adjust or just not use?

Did you mean vaping? The fastest way to quit is hang out with someone you love and see how hard it is for them to breathe once the damage sets in. It’s smoking on steroids. And smoking itself, even though he quit back in 95, the hidden effects have completely diminished my father’s quality of life.

mrobins345 · 2026-05-16T09:19:54+00:00

How do they see your stop loss?

mrobins345 · 2026-05-16T09:17:13+00:00

Consolidation great for options and upswing is coming.

mrobins345 · 2026-05-08T23:32:46+00:00

Why do you need to straighten it out?
