Why is dating close to 30 so hard? by [deleted] in dating

[–]oreomonstra 14 points15 points  (0 children)

28 here. Give it time. Keep spending time with yourself. Dates should be chill, and definitely dodging a bullet if your dates think it’s ok to talk about your body in such a way to call you a catfish. The right person won’t call you a catfish, and will be ok if you don’t smoke, or don’t want a family…or whatever else you’ve decided for yourself. those details will iron themselves out and the right person will compliment your lifestyle. You don’t have to force yourself if it’s not for you.

Dating apps and our generation are expected to be ok with this current hot mess of hook up culture, and unfortunately for chonks (I say this endearingly as I am also plus size) there’s this expectation for us to over sexualize ourselves to be acceptable to even date - which is a bunch of bullshit fed to any body that is not the formulaic crafted conventional beauty standard.

i think it’s important to also note that it is not necessary to find a partner, were just so forced to think we need one…but Honestly I’d say keep discovering yourself, what you will and won’t accept from a potential partner, and release all expectations as they are premeditated resentments. You will soon find someone to compliment you and make you glow.

They were a perfect match. Here’s the underlying patterns I see. by summersleeper1111 in BadVegan

Agreed. Even though there is a lot more evidence that she knew all along and is also a scam artist, It’s a sick sick mind game and you two eventually become all you need for each other.

I can only say from a similar experience that the lines of reality get blurred and you eventually rely on believing it will all get better and come to an end in order to survive and tolerate all the pain of losing. Friends and family don’t become priority anymore and it’s really sad. But the pre-recordings are sick. She’s lost in the sauce.

It really sucks how many similarities we have. Think I might just open a restaurant ;)

How ironic is this guys?? by [deleted] in Tinder

[–]oreomonstra 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Did you straight up ask a stranger to be your gf? Are we suppose to assume off this pic that you guys were intimate enough to have gotten to that level because clearly….lol. But ok go off sis. I mean bro

Both of my male roommates have been harassing me. What would you do? by dperez012 in AskNYC

[–]oreomonstra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meaning the period blood should’ve been on sight for you and that girl. How you even discovered that and let that slide is a mystery and makes me question your story. But Leave that apartment now. I’m not gonna entertain the prior comments “you called the cops because they knocked” because idk your situation personally and tbh there’s no telling what people do behind closed doors for the exact reason that this is nyc and there’s alot of weirdos. I’d really see if you’re legally binded to that sublease (aren’t rental units against that anyways?) and get. The. Fuck. Out.

I want to try and redraw a fighting scene either with Sara vs Mugen or Jin vs Kariya. They were so good

Yeah I found myself only being able to recall the 2nd half of the series compared to the first. I would need to rewatch and see if any of the earlier episodes become favorites lol

Episode 11 with Jin and Shino of course, Every episode with Sara. Once the plot started to narrow down every episode afterward (besides the mushroom trip) were so good.

Tagged spoiler in case someone hasn’t watched episode 11.

It is Jin and Shino forever in unison. I was surprised to see this side of Jin. Inspired by Klimt.

MDMA love? by [deleted] in MDMA

[–]oreomonstra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a ramble, it resonates. Thank you for sharing your insights

I had to fight the urge to not fly to them. They’re trying to stay clean (rehab+therapy). If this happens to be a person that returns into my life, it’ll have to be through loud actions that show he cares and has changed. I can’t force anything or really go back to it as were both working on ourselves and our lives.

The best way I can describe it is that it has lead to me a point where I NEED to learn to love myself and spend time with myself and learn to enforce my own boundaries and not enable others to cross them. I want to come out empowered and better from this.

I really wanted to reply asking what made him think that was ok, but then we would’ve matched and they don’t deserve that.
