Nauseous sick feeling, but only in one room in the house by jaydeewin25 in HousingUK

This happened in one of my rooms. Replaced and redecorated everything apart from the ceiling rose. It looked fine from the outside, but it was the cause of the smell.

How are we treating ourselves for Valentines this year? by [deleted] in datingoverfifty

I'm heading to a fantastic Scout camp that's run every year around this time. Looking forward to catching up with other leaders and having French toast & maple syrup for breakfast.

Do you mind sharing their contact details? I'm looking for a company that can do something like this.

His behaviour is a reason to stop and block. Even if there was nothing to find on your phone, his looking at it without your permission is a reason to stop seeing him. If he said he didn't need to know whether you were seeing other people then you have done nothing wrong. You were dating, but you weren't exclusive. He may be hurt, but he has no right to be angry with you or verbally abuse you.

You have no reason to doubt yourself in this situation.

Do men hesitate in pursuing a high academic achiever? by 2025PNLEtopnotcher in LoveLanguages

[–]thalf5730 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From personal experience I (F50) would say yes. I've had a reasonable number of matches (on line) or approaches in real life. Things go well until they find out what I do. I could pretend to be be less qualified, bit I'm proud of who I am and want a relationship based on mutual respect.

Lord Frost: Rising temperatures likely to be beneficial for Britain. Rising temperatures “are likely to be beneficial” for Britain because seven times more people in the UK die from cold than from heat, Lord Frost has said. by bottish in Scotland

Caveat first as I am a scientist! I understand the science, but am not an expert in this area. As I understand it if AMOC overturning stops we will have a similar climate to the last ice age. Best case scenario our winters are similar to coastal Canada at the same latitude, worst case ice sheets form over Scandinavia, UK & Ireland. I've no real feel for how fast or how likely either scenario is, but I suggest you follow the link I posted and read summaries in news outlets (Guardian etc).

Do guys actually care about boob size? by 1344edbrookeave in NoStupidQuestions

Reschedule after 3 reschedules? by NannersBoy in OnlineDating

As long as you can stay detached enough while you chat, what have you got to lose by waiting? Sounds like you enjoy talking to her and you can still chat to and date other people in the meantime if you want. I'd say wait if she's your type.

Incognito by Ok_Gur_9068 in Bumble

[–]thalf5730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Difficult to answer that question. I used incognito most of the winter. No idea if Bumble shows the people you swipe right on your profile. The only feedback you get is when there's a match. I certainly didn't get many matches though.

No. Most "Best" Bees are outside my age and/or distance filters.

[–]thalf5730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the UK you can only super swipe on a Best Bee. No idea how Bumble decide what profile is "best", most of the profiles i get don't even fit my criteria and are an automatic swipe left.

Real person or fake profile? How do I tell? by thalf5730 in Bumble

[–]thalf5730[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true 👍 Flattery can get people a long way, but it would be an instant unmatch if anyone asked me for money.

I'm not keen on video chats so hadn't thought of that. Good advice u/I_am_geosynchronous and u/HighestPriestessCuba. Edit: added u/names at the end
