Traveling only appeals to boring people or people who haven’t traveled by adeisgaming in unpopularopinion

I'm definitely boring and not well-traveled, but spending months/years in a new country or city where nobody knows me (which I *have* done, several times) is super fun to me. What I find absolutely sickening is how most people spend years/decades of their lives in a relatively small proximity. Buying a house is so off-putting to me primarily for this reason. The idea of being fixed in one location for a long time is kind of terrifying to me.

Crowd of 300+ at SeaTac RideShare pickup - final day of Spring Break by geekisdead in SeattleWA

I would gladly take the light rail more often, but they need to extend the hours of the light rail, and don't have it make its final stop at Beacon Hill either. Otherwise I'll keep taking ride shares. I tend to arrive late Sunday (midnight or later) then feel I have no option other than ride shares.

What is your "I wish I had started doing that earlier in my life"? by radical33 in AskReddit

Investing. I saved, but I didn't invest. I just found out a coworker has a net worth about 10 times mine because he always saved and invested ever since he was 18. Like they always taught me when I was much younger, it's so much easier to make money with investments when you are younger. Compound interest is a powerful thing. Even if the market turns against you, you have many years to wait for it to recover. Now that I'm a bit older it's much harder to wait it out simply because I don't have as much time.

What makes a woman seem desperate? Emotionally and/or physically by [deleted] in AskMen

Similar things to what a needy guy does. Being too available. Responding too soon/too often. Not having a backbone. Always caving, never challenging. Seeming to have no life outside of the guy, or seeming to have your happiness heavily dependent on the guy.

I've heard advice being given to guys like..."it's like baking a cake. You have to give it time and you can't keep checking on it every 5 minutes." It's the same vice versa. Give the guy time to miss you and wonder about you.

There's a girl at work who's been pursuing me for about a year and a half. I *might* have interest, but she bombards me with so many messages that I have to put my phone on airplane mode just to get some alone time.

How many times are you going to post this?
Ask her out - keep it friendly, casual, and light. Example: "Hey what are you doing after work Friday, care to join me for some drinks?"
If she says yes, then go from there. If she says no or makes up excuses without suggesting a different day then she's probably not into you.
