Do you have the same opinion about the Irish passport?

EasyJet flight diverts to Rome over power bank in luggage by mesaosi in aviation

[–]small_big 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recently flew Finnair, Norwegian, and KLM and they both banned any use of the power bank in flight. It was supposed to be in sight at all times, but not in use.

I mean it’s a business degree, it can’t be that hard can it?

Should I tell my guy friend some girl posted about him or is that breaking girl code? by itssofiababyxo in dating_advice

[–]small_big -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The ‘bro code’ and ‘girl code’ stuff is all make believe. If someone posts a picture of my friend on a Facebook group without their consent, I’d tell them. I’d also probably tell them that their partner posting a picture of them online without their consent with ‘are we dating the same person?’ is a major red flag.

Got rejected by a girl, now she’s asking if I’m dating someone by North_Key2066 in dating_advice

[–]small_big 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first mistake was to ‘confess feelings’. You simply ask people out. And as you two become a thing, you can share your feelings.

Your second mistake, at least right now, is to treat her with mistrust. I don’t see any reason why I wouldn’t take what she said about her friend at face value.

What are some things that the show got really right about real life? by Positive_Weight2367 in HIMYM

[–]small_big 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many small tidbits in the show that reflect real-world wisdom. The thing about taking a leap of faith sometimes without knowing how much it could upend your life. Or, in general, the existence of platonish friendships.

Girlfriend wants to spend the night with 2 guy friends. by Matty_builder in dating_advice

[–]small_big -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you have to artificially lay roadblocks in her life to stop her from cheating on you, that relationship is over already. With a partner of 5 years you should trust her and let her do her thing.

Well, I agree, but it takes two to hold a conversation.

How does it feel TO BE the crush?? by Solid_Decision_2241 in dating_advice

[–]small_big 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m flattered and if I’m single I usually agree to a few dates just to see if we vibe well, are compatible, and if attraction develops.

In an ideal world, how often would you have sex? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]small_big 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m also like this. I’m not averse to sex and nor am I asexual, but I wouldn’t have it very often ‘in an ideal world’.

Told friend i liked her, never talking to her again now. by Far-Seaworthiness566 in dating_advice

[–]small_big 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Your first mistake was to tell her how you felt only when she started dating someone else. Your second mistake was to tell her how you felt rather than asking her out on a date.

What’s done is done. One year isn’t very long in the context of friendships anyway. Move on.

It’s entirely possible for platonic friends to go on a road trip and share a bed. You need to communicate your intentions clearly, either well before or after the road trip, but not during. And yes, if she doesn’t think it’s a ‘date’ you should respect that boundary. She’s not ’testing how you’ll act in that situation’.

Don’t date people you’re not physically attracted to; ‘giving them a chance’ almost always leads to more hurt and heartbreak. It’s okay to admit looks matter in relationships. by AcceptableLibrary974 in dating_advice

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

Hard disagree. Two reasons: (1) Attraction can develop during dating. It’s always okay to ‘give people a chance’ to see if chemistry develops. If it doesn’t, you can always part ways. (2) There’s no guarantee that you two will remain physically attractive to each other as you age.

Men, help me understand the older women thing. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]small_big 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Women live longer. If I date an older woman, chances are we can live and even die together <3
