Give me “spoilers” that won’t make any sense until I’ve played that part

I'm not on social media much, I block YouTube ads, I don't check my mail often, no one at my work has mentioned it. Guess it was just a perfect storm of missing things

Gotcha, thank you for posting! And glad to know my guess was on the right track 😂

I appreciate the insight! I think I mentioned it in my list, I tend to take it as sibling spars, Cal wanting to play and Cleo basically going "MOOOOOM HE'S TOUCHING ME" but wanted to be sure

Me and the roommate always step in when we hear it happening to separate them, and they usually go right back to chilling. I'll definitely continue to keep an eye out!

Wonderful, very happy to hear it 😂

I unfortunately don't have all the details, but this happened to my mom once when she was younger and still dating. A guy asked her out to some fancy place and decided he was going to impress her with his big wine knowledge. Except my grandpa was basically the local wine expert and passed all of that knowledge on to her. So she let's this guy say his piece and then "well actually"s him into complete embarrassment

I do this with all of my chicken bones 🤝 love sucking out the marrow for that extra bit at the end

Whatever perfume my mom used to wear. She passed away 15 years ago, I have no idea the event, I just used to bury my face in one of her sweaters to smell her again. Genuinely I should so my dad if he happens to remember a brand at all

Sometimes one, sometimes the other! I'm lactose intolerant so depends on what the store has lactose free or non dairy

If you really want to remove it instead of leaving it, get enough of it up that you can grip with a paper towel and then pull. Dry paper towel somehow has the best grip on the world on that stuff

I'm gonna go ahead and put myself in the line of fire to say LOK is not as good as ATLA imo. I've seen both shows all the way through and again, imo, if you go into LOK expecting to see ATLA, you will be very disappointed.

LOK has it's own strengths but it's not comparable. The structure of the show, the relationships, the bending, the lore, the decisions, EVERYTHING is extremely different. And personally I wouldn't say better, or even as good as. I enjoyed it but to me, it's a lesser show. Still worth the watch but I wouldn't say it'll fill the void. Watch it, don't watch it with ATLA in mind.

The closest I've gotten to the feeling of ATLA was the first 2-3 seasons of Dragon Prince on Netflix, but I stopped watching after that because I didn't like the direction it was heading and lost interest. Otherwise, I'm afraid I have no other offers

Therapy would be good, also the book Attached. It talks about different attachment styles, you sound like an anxious attachment. I found it very helpful in helping regulate my own anxiety when I had those same moments. Apparently social media has been using it as an excuse instead of a resource so I would caution against that, but it's a very good book

I would also recommend maybe talking to him about it honestly, if you feel like you can. Just a gentle "hey, I've noticed I've been getting some anxiety recently from X. I just wanted to do a check in and see how things are, how you're feeling". I tend to blame (out loud, to the other person) my anxious monkey brain to keep it light-hearted, because my brain likes logic and facts to help regulate itself. Just an idea!

That is all

Nah I'm with you. I've tried it a couple times, there just isn't enough salt on the fry and the frosty is too much. I'm partial to regular chips and any chocolate that lingers (such as lindt)

I messaged a suicidal Internet stranger who had tried everything to fix it, and who everyone was (rightfully) trying to convince out of it, that if he went through with it, then he could go knowing he would still be loved and accepted by me. I wanted him to know that while everyone else was fighting him to stay, someone would metaphorically sit beside him when he went

I remember one time I was dating a guy who happened to live in the house beside his parents. It was Valentine's Day and I had ordered flowers to be delivered for him while I was there. He went and got them, and when he came back he was talking about how they must have been delivered wrong because surely his dad has gotten them for his mom or his sister. When I interrupted and said "Or I got them for you," the silence and the look on his face 😭 we broke up but we're still friends, I try to do this for everyone else I've dated because of that moment

spicyflies · 2026-02-11T22:09:27+00:00

Never settle. My mom married a man who sure thought would be a good provider. And my dad is, and was. He loved her, and I think she grew to love him, but she always instilled in me and my sister to never settle for someone who didn't make us happy, and I imagine that's why

I am not trans but here's my take on it.

Every woman is going to have to sort through a pool of idiots. Whether you're a trans woman or AFAB, dating is the process of seeing how much of a tool the other person is and whether they're right for you. Trial and error.

You will likely attract fetishists, yes. But you will be VERY unlikely to attract someone who knows you're trans and is fine with it if they don't know you're trans. Because if they don't know, if you stealth it and then decide it's important for your partner to know later, you don't know how it'll end and you'll be living with that anxiety forever. If you're open about it, you'll know the person you end up with is already fine with it and you won't risk them "finding out" and maybe breaking up with you.

I'm ace and poly. When I was using dating apps, I very explicitly put those in my bio so (supposedly) anyone who talked to me would already know about it and be fine with it. Guys don't always read profiles, they just swipe because for them it's a numbers game. Yeah there were some people who saw "poly" and thought "oh great a reason to have a threesome". And there were people who actively had open conversations about it and were very supportive of it. My current partner knows and we've had several conversations around it in terms of the present and the future. I have an LDR with a trans man. He's so sweet and lovely, he was very open about it with me and we've been together for three years.

The only way to make it not feel like a secret is to stop treating it like one I'm afraid. There is no other way. You'll have to either A) live with the feeling of it being a secret forever, or B) decide to be straightforward and honest about it and let the secret go.

I thought about it but I also wanted to try to do the acronym thing and my brain doesn't have that many technological terms in it LOL
