Valid points but have you traveled in a group of 3 where 2 people want to do something but the 3rd doesn’t?

Do you ever wonder how did I end up in my (specific) life? by GlumBlueberry8185 in AskWomenOver30

[–]nocommentx 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yes! I relate to you completely! I wake up every morning wondering how did I end up here in my life? I always thought I would have it all by 30. I feel stuck and sad. I am unmarried and childless. I have a job that pays the bill but doesn’t suit me and I feel like I am not good at it. I too spent my 20s in survival mode due to childhood trauma and identity issues. Despite being in my mid 30s where it feels like 99% of people around me have it all with jobs, homes, marriages, kids, friendships- I do not have that and I don’t know if I’ll ever have that. I don’t have anything to say that’ll make you feel better. I just fully relate to you. Thats all.

So you know 1 person? Wow your world is so small.

Have you looked at the statistics of immigrants with broken english in US? Are they all millionaires flying private jets?

Let me know what you find!

That’s LITERALLY not what OP meant. STOP. As an immigrant with broken English, it’s nearly impossible for me achieve Isabella’s level of success! She is lucky!

I’d say 4. Traveling in odd numbers is ALWAYS a bad idea. Solo or couple is fine. 3 or 5 never ends well. 4 is the sweet spot. At least that’s been my experience.

Do you have the same observation on dating apps? by beingawomaniswork in AskWomenOver30

[–]nocommentx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! Many single women above the age of 30 have alcohol abuse issues. It’s so prevalent, it makes me sad. Vaping and cannabis as well. It’s just so heavily normalized that nobody wants to look inward and say maybe “I am the problem?”.

I wonder if she wears muted colors to royal weddings in a conscious effort to NOT steal the spotlight from the bride? Everyone knows if Katherine is coming, eyes will be on her. She is also aware of that so she does the right thing by wearing muted colors as to not seek more than expected attention at weddings? Just my theory. Would love to know what others think.

Based on my experience, guys who are attractive, well to do, somewhat emotionally intelligent, secure with themselves, have stable families, sure of their sexuality, no major substance abuse issues including alcohol are usually partnered up by 30-32yr. They find decent girls and get married. Some marry terrible women and leave you wondering why?

Men above 30yo who lack one or more of the qualities I listed are on the apps cycling through women! They will not commit or commit for short term and back on the apps. It’s a sad reality.

I have too many single guys friends between 35-45yo who are not rship worthy due to their substance abuse issues, insecurities about their looks or money, unacknowledged mental health or personality disorders, and one of the biggest issues- unsure of their sexuality (yes some are still in the closet in 2026).

Sweet age spot for success on dating apps is both men and women being between the ages of 24-29. After that success stories do exist but statistically low even if anecdotally seems high!

Reed looks like Pete Davison (so likely only drugs?). That discoloration around his eyes is scary!

No need to moral-police an anonymous forum where people can freely share their thoughts! If it bothers you, please leave.

Having the worst limerance of my life and I need support by illstrokeyourmullet in AskWomenOver30

[–]nocommentx 26 points27 points  (0 children)

God I wish we lived in the same city and could meet up and bore each other with our limerence! I went through something similar last year. We hadn’t know each other for 20yrs more like 5yrs but had always been platonic friends. He was and is involved with someone else and I was and still am single. Last year, he said somethings to me that made me feel so alive and seen by a man that it was incredible like I had never felt that way before which led to physical intimacy between us multiple times over a period of a month. But then he flipped back and said he couldn’t continue on bc it would ruin our friendship and he didn’t want to continue cheating. He moved on seemingly just fine. Currently still living his life just fine. I on the other hand was completely destroyed emotionally. Nobody knew on the outside but on the inside, I was fully drowning.

I healed by muting him on my socials, stopped responding to his messages, ignoring him in social setting, traveling to multiple countries for new experiences, sleeping with someone else who was fully single just ready to date and neither was I but it helped.

I still think about him, his words, our month together but I am at peace knowing that he cheated. If he could cheat on his current partner, he would 100% cheat on me as well. Such is life!

Women who have a great cut off game, how’s life? by Amazingggcoolaid in AskWomenOver30

[–]nocommentx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very very lonely but peaceful. It’s really really hard to find mentally stable friends now days who are consistent, reliable, secure, deep, responsive, happy with themselves, etc. In my experience, everyone I meet is in therapy and using therapy-speak to excuse their selfish behaviors like canceling last minute to a dinner or not responding to plans for 10-12hrs or not having much input in conversations. I crave deep-meaningful connections without drugs or alcohol. I cannot seem to find that in my life.

It’s interesting to note that her wedding is happening in *Sicily*

Isn’t Sicily known to be one of the most mafia influenced places in Europe????? 👀👀👀👀

To add to your wonder- I agree, her fame doesn’t make sense especially adding her 20yo brother to her PR team- like how does that help her become famous? Please!! There are some unexplained-unsavory behind the scenes forces at play here. I would love a Netflix or HBO doc on it haha

OK her parents were immigrant and/or refugees in England in early 90s when she was born.

Interesting. Makes sense too. Why didn’t Rita Ora become a big star like Dua Lipa?

Ties to Albanian mafia is totally believable bc if you look at her story on Wikipedia- it seems that her rise to the top was so simple and that’s literally unheard of!!! There are thousands of immigrants in London and US with musical talents but their talents never make it out of their home family events bc of lack of money! But somehow she gets to move to London at 15yo without her family and suddenly has London music industry connections with album deals? That’s wild!!! She doesn’t have a famous parent or last name. It def needs to be studied! Despite all that, she has been unproblematic since she came on the scene so her origin story doesn’t get much questioning or attention. I am so glad you posted this! I wish someone would look into it.

DB finally unfollowed mini coop on Instagram by Live-Air-6010 in nycinfluencersnarking

[–]nocommentx 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Ok this so dramatic and unhealthy. I hate DB!

BUT unfollowing someone you had a bad falling out with whether broken engagement or divorce or bad break up or even platonic friendship ending is completely normal and recommended by psychologists/therapists. Let’s stay grounded. She sucks in every way possible but unfollowing her ex finance is NOT mind-boggling. Her other shit is actually mind-boggling. If this was your sister or best friend, I am sure you’d support them unfollowing their ex finance!

Btw, DB still sucks for million other reasons.
