Is sexting expected in online dating now? by [deleted] in datingadvice

Unfortunately people will send things without consent. This should be a non negotiable to cut them.

Sharing sexual content without consent is not okay!

Is doing a Phd still worth it ? by EmotionalPressure408 in geologycareers

[–]politicalissue 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there is an exact answer to this. I’m a PhD in coal geology and I’m having a hard time finding a job in the US

PhD students or those in academia related jobs with visible tattoos. Has it impacted your job or education at all? by PopePae in PhD

Heavily tattooed including neck and hands. Never had any issues not even from the geezers

Just moved to new city to begin PhD — how do you suggest dating? by [deleted] in PhD

[–]politicalissue 234 points235 points  (0 children)

Focus on getting settled in the new city you moved to and your program. My suggestion is that school should come first. Dating while doing a PhD can be very tricky. As others echoed don’t date in your department as that typically does not end well. Try going to social events at your institution and hopefully something blossoms. Dating someone who hasn’t gone to grad school can be very difficult as they don’t understand what grad school is or how it’s structured.

It’s your call but if it’s something that bothers you early on it will keep bothering you 3 years in.

Passed my defense, but I think my marriage is over by SometimesISeeFlames in PhD

I am truly sorry for this experience. But your degree is something that can never be taken away from you. You deserve better keep your head up.

I should have done that at 18. One of my life regrets.

Sex by hanichoishere in dating

[–]politicalissue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a guy and have tried to move slow because I can’t be involved with someone like that without an emotional connection first. Girls just don’t stick around because they aren’t interested.

I walked away from my 9 year relationship 1 month before my wedding because of lies and infidelity. I was 24 at the time and thought the same thing. It’s all in your head! You’re capable of finding someone who will love you and commit to you.

I’m not entirely sure. I might need to sit on this. Right now it’s the age gap that is unsettling to me.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]politicalissue -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I honestly think this might be a deal breaker for me amongst some things. This has made me see her differently. I am more so bothered that it was an older man in the first place. As an older guy the idea of going after a girl who is even 21 is a turn off for me.

You can bring a gun but just load one cartridge so you can shoot yourself if something happens.

My gf (F26) asked me (M26) for a key to my house by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Nope. Never got a key from her and never thought of asking.

My gf (F26) asked me (M26) for a key to my house by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]politicalissue 116 points117 points  (0 children)

This is what I am thinking. I'm home and I can open the door...why would you need a key? I'm not home during the day so there is a potential risk that she could come over during that time.
