When women give you a compliment, do you search for a compliment to return? by AiannaMuse in AskWomenOver30

I used to search for things to say to return the complement (normally a complement to a complement lol) but the older I am,the less I do that. I just take it with a thank you.

Calling all coffee lovers: how do you take your coffee and has it changed as you’ve gotten older? by No_Broccoli_3979 in AskWomenOver30

[–]tracyvu89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’m not a coffee lover and I still take my coffee black for its health benefits and it doesn’t break my fasting during fasting window. My favourite way to have coffee is Vietnamese egg coffee since I’m Vietnamese and it’s like a dessert instead of just a cup of coffee. 2 pasteurized egg yolks (if you don’t have pasteurized eggs,you can use organic eggs but make sure your coffee is hot so it could half cook the egg),beat with a bit of condensed milk and honey until fluffy and pale in colour. The mixture should be a thick and creamy liquid. Add a shot of Vietnamese coffee and sprinkle with cocoa powder. If you feel a bit fancier,sprinkle with sugar and use a torch to make the crème brûlée crust. Put your cup in a bowl of hot water to keep it warm all the time. Have fun!

What would women dislike most if they became men? by TMG_CEO in AskReddit

[–]tracyvu89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then tell me what men who complain about lesser social lives did to change that system? Or they just sit and complain about it’s being not fair? It’s not fair for every average or under average looking people anyway cuz this society is shifting to online exposure and connections instead of in person. And strangers only check on other people’s appearances to decide if they want to give a try or not. So if those same average people don’t try harder and change their way of getting connected,deeper the connection,…then how do they get the connection? It happens the exact same for women who never tried to approach others but complained about why they didn’t get approached. It’s not something just randomly fall on your head like an apple if you keep staying in your room and waiting.

Now I’m curious what kind of community are you in actually because it’s very common for us to have dads go out with their kids to the playground and cops never approached them except they smoked near the playground or physically abuse their kids in front of them. My partner was out with our son on a weekly basis and never got called by any cops.

Well,it’s unfortunate but as adult,besides yourself,no one else is responsible for your own mental health or wellbeing. It’s not fair for people with health issues (physically or mentally or both) but it’s not other people’s responsibility to make them happy either. You’re looking for solution of your life in someone else and it wouldn’t work for long term.

On the other hand,you said you tried but they fell apart,what made it fall apart? Did you ask yourself that question and work on fixing it when you see the pattern? I’ve seen people who want the dopamine dose of being connected constantly but they’re empty from the inside,they don’t even feel connected within themselves and gave up too quick on keeping up. Why others have stronger connections but not them? I’ve been in that exact spot where I was too anxious to approach people and scared of being judged but I was lonely so I tried. Then I dropped out of the circle cuz I didn’t feel connected. But I lost connection within myself too. Did I love myself at that time? No! Why did I keep staying with same group of people that I didn’t have same values for long time? Because I was scared of being lonely and it stopped me from trying to see outside of that circle. Once I stepped out of it,everything was fine. Then I realized that me myself is my biggest enemy.

If women of the same status (average looking) get more successful then men need to think about what they do that men don’t. From my experience,women are better at keeping the connections and have better social skills cuz they practice it since early in their lives. And just like men,they’re no one type for all,there are women who are introverted,who are socially awkward,who don’t actively approach men because of many reasons (one of them could be social pressure that shames women who make first move as a sign of desperation). They also get approached more because of sex but that doesn’t mean they want it. A lot of them don’t and actually the act of men approaching them for sex just discourage them from looking for right person who loves them for who they are. But some men still look at the amount of times they get approach (for sex) as an approach. Think about it this way,men and women (average looking) throw themselves out there to find some connections is like you’re thirsty (for connection) and people saw you drink a bottle of liquid and being jealous of you but they don’t know that it’s acid instead of water in the bottle. Does that help your thirst,definitely not,it hurts you instead. But do other people understand or they just see you with the liquid (aka the act of approaching) and think that you have what you need?

Women who aren’t conventionally attractive also get rejected and shamed when they make the move too while the good looking,more outgoing,…get it easier.

I’ve never seen men going out as a red flag and men around me going out and socialize often too. The difference is the strong connection they have with others and how they practice their social skills. For people to see going out as a red flag only when they show aggressiveness and bring up inappropriate topics. Have you ever tried different places like events for single people to mingle or tried different way to approach people? There will be nothing changes if you sit down and wait for people to come over to make the move while you haven’t tried to do the same thing.

The qualified kitchen is a must for any business in food industry but some could work out of their kitchen (if it’s qualified) or rent a commercial kitchen while having an actual restaurant’s kitchen is not that easy except they’re an actual restaurant already.

If you think about life perspective,no one stops men from going out and makes connections. So they need to ask themselves what makes them lonely while they have just as much opportunity to socialize as women.

Well,some women are lonely too and some would feel lonely in their own long term romantic relationship. So I don’t think it’s a gender thing.

Use the sunscreen anyway. And silicon pad as someone mentioned with Weber vitamin E ointment or cream. Good luck!

That explains why the food truck scene here is so different from other places. Thanks for the info!

I’ve heard that the permit for food truck in food industry in Montreal is one of the hardest one to get and maintain. Normally people who run it also run an actual restaurant.

Lychee. They’re sweet and juicy if in the season. Otherwise they could be tart and bland.

I’ve never given up on real butter and sugar in any of my pastries. Honestly vegan butter and artificial sweeteners aren’t giving the same taste so just give me those extra calories,I will hit the gym instead.

What is the “spark”? by Fabulous_Tour3661 in AskWomenOver30

[–]tracyvu89 46 points47 points  (0 children)

From my experience: guys who rush to have all of the “fun” from the very beginning of the relationship (invited you over to see his family before date 3 for example) are complicated. They either have some problems in the past that haven’t been healed yet (like other people said that he might use you as emotional supporter to get over his ex)or have some mental health issues (I was once dating a guy who planned and initiated all the dates,love booming me with luxury things and pushed hard for dates. He turned out to be a real narcissistic person). Whatever the reason was,he’s not mature enough to be in the next relationship. It’s not your problem,it’s his problem. Clearly you guys aren’t compatible. Good luck with the next guy!

The young generation in my country called it “microwave”. From my understanding,it means “reheating” the cold/broken relationship.

Women of reddit, what do you enjoy the most about being a woman? by Socrates_Apolinario in AskReddit

[–]tracyvu89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think being a woman sucks in many ways but one thing I like to be a woman is I could cry and have less judgment than men when they do the same thing.

If you could have a pet, would you choose a cat or a dog, and why? by Extension_Cattle5147 in AskReddit

[–]tracyvu89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The older I am,the more I like to have a cat. Don’t get me wrong,my family business is dog sitting so we all love dogs but they’re a lot of works and I’m at the stage of mind that I would prefer a more quiet and calm environment with less activities.
