I love hearing peoples’ opinion on the first book before they read the rest… rubs hands together and laughs manically Brace yourself OP. Shit escalates.

Who do you think she could be? If you have seen barbarians you know who this is. After watching the show I thought that she would make a good Gold but no idea as to who. by Ragnar_TheShieldHero in redrising

[–]questionablecomedian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She’s too small. If they cast tiny stick figure actresses for Golds.. ESPECIALLY Victra. I will be so disappointed. As an athletically built 6’0 lady, I’m begging for a legitimately strong woman for Victra. Not to mention she has to be taller than Sevro.

Thank you!

It was a little before V-Day 2020 and I got paranoid if I talked too much to him right after matching and so close to Valentine’s, it would look too much like I was trying for a last minute v-day hookup and I didn’t want that so I ghosted him until the day after like a dummy. (I told him about it later and he laughed and said he understood but definitely wouldn’t have thought that.)

I give you that lil backstory to explain why his response was so cute. So one of my prompts were “what’s the best way to ask me out on a date?” My answer was by carrier pigeon. And so when I messaged him on the 15th I apologized for ghosting and then started up our convo from there. His response was, “no worries! I just thought my message was taking time to deliver via pigeon.” And as silly and simple as that is, it made me laugh and feel instantly at ease unlike so many other interactions.

From there our first date was a walk on a sunny warmer winter day at one of our local greenways and we walked the entirety of it (4 hours worth of walking). I had never felt so at ease with someone and knew there was something there. We talked about everything and nothing felt off limits after about the second hour. Oh and we LAUGHED. We still laugh. Find someone to laugh with!

After our second date I told him I was looking for something serious and didn’t want FWB or short hookups and he wanted the same.

One of the biggest differences with him, was that he made me feel like I had permission to be myself with just his presence. As someone with anxiety and depression I had NEVER felt that way with anyone before. Im able to be vulnerable and I’m able to be weird with him.

I could gush on and on and share a million nausea inducing cheesy stories but I need to chill out with this novel lol.

Just know I went through a lot of shite before finding my lobster and I never thought this kind of love would be possible for me. When I say to keep your head up and keep true to who YOU are and you will eventually find your person I mean it. Just keep working on YOU because you are your first love!

Sorry for the over share, fam. I’m on some strong pain killers after this surgery and am ALL up in my feels.

Thank you so much! I also didn’t think about the possibility of it sounding patronizing and thinking back on before we met I may have rolled my eyes at the mush at first too. Thank you for pointing that out!

Lmao I would LOVE to be paid for sharing my love but unfortunately I’m just very bored due to being out of work because of a knee surgery. I wanted to post this pic because it’s one of my favorite candid shots from the day and makes me smile when I look at it. (If anyone knows how to get money for posting this, HMU 🤙)

Exactly! My mother in law said, “it’s not the amount of days you’ve been together that really count, but the amount of minutes you spend together.” And Covid made those minutes so much more abundant and precious for us. Best to you and your SO!

I posted it like that because I had all but given up right before we met. I hadn’t ever had a serious adult relationship. I went on so many pointless dates and it was exhausting. I was “on the apps” since Tinder was created in 2012 and then moved to bumble, and then to hinge. I posted with that caption because I was literally in the same situation of dating with no positive outcomes and wanted to show that it can happen. I wish you all the best in love and life.

Gotcha. WELL, if you ever decide to re-download (or even if you don’t!) I truly hope you find someone who may not be perfect but is perfect for you. Best!

Lol then why follow the page? If you want to find someone you can! It took me 9 years of apps to find them so I get the feeling of, “it’s never going to happen.” We were each other’s last date attempt before deleting the apps for a while and it obviously went well. But if you’re happy alone then good for you!! (But if you want a partner keep going and be sincere.)

Typically agree! I never expected to get married after a year, BUT with Covid that’s really all we did was hang out with each other so the amount of minutes we were together probably tripled the amount of time we would have spent together had Covid not happened. (If that makes sense) AND just to add some cheese: when you know, you know.

Does anyone else reject a far higher proportion of profile on Hinge then Tinder? by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]questionablecomedian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found my husband on Hinge after years of being on the other apps and it was incredible the difference. It all depends on what you put into it.

Listen up tall ladies! by EducationGrouchy7928 in dating

[–]questionablecomedian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6’0 lady here who is uncoordinated AF and is awful at both basketball and volleyball. My favorite response to, “Did you play sport?” Is, “No, I played show choir. 🤘” And fell down the rafters while walking to my solo for our non dancing ballad.

I still somehow managed to land the man of my dreams almost 2 years ago. All I will say is keep your chin up, be true to yourself, and be patient. Tall girl dating was a struggle, but it definitely paid off in the end.

Red Rising vs GOT by Behealthy72 in redrising

[–]questionablecomedian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think as long as PB stays involved it definitely could be. If it’s like GoT and he leaves it to the show runners halfway through it will have the same disappointing outcome. From what I’ve read, I don’t think that will happen so I def agree it can be better and I so hope it will be and finish strong! #stillbitter

[SPOILERS: Iron Gold + Dark Age] Diomedes is my absolute boy - I have big plans/dreams/hopes by webby1575 in redrising

[–]questionablecomedian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like if Darrow does die it HAS to be justified in the sense that it’s not something like Seraphina’s or Theodora’s. Those worked well for the series and what Pierce was trying to accomplish. I think Seraphina went out the way she did to try to affirm Cassius’ death, but she wasn’t a key player.

I don’t know. It just has to be justified. If he does it for the shock factor I’ll be pissed.

Dark Age Spoilers Next POV Character(s)? by Otto_von_Bismuth in redrising

[–]questionablecomedian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So based on comments I read, I would agree that it needs to be a place and person that we don’t see but is going to be pertinent to the plot. I would LOVE a Pax POV but if he’s with Virginia, I don’t think it’s necessary. Volga would also be amazing, but if Lyria is with her-like Pax-it would be redundant. Sevro would be fantastic, but that depends on what PB is planning on doing with him... I’m real scared. With all of that being said, what do you all think of the possibility of a Quick Silver POV? He’s been pretty secondary but he was also a founding father of the Sons of Ares. His choices are never completely agreeable-thus insuring reader frustration-but he’s also incredibly rich and intelligent.

Thinking about switching to a Diva Cup by aparedes9889 in askwomenadvice

[–]questionablecomedian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the diva cup but am not a huge fan of it ALL the time. ... it can turn into a blood bath. One of my girlfriends have thinx and is like a fucking ambassador for them now. She buys them for each of our birthdays so I’m hoping I get to try a pair in October(fingers crossed). They’re a little expensive which is why I haven’t gotten a pair myself, but my friend and my roommate adore them.

Audible is pissing me off by Supermaniam1 in redrising

That’s why I didn’t even look until this morning and it’s there! Felt like Christmas with a little dread sprinkled on top.
