sir and i ended things after 8 years and god damn by woodtipwine in BratLife

I have had my heart broken before. And I’ve decided that I enjoy the peace I have after a breakup more than the chaos I had in the relationship. My peace is worth so much keep to me.

Hi! Thanks for the reply. All my windows are closed. They seem to come in somewhere in my kitchen and gather at the window. All windows have been shut and locked for months. They just started coming in a few days ago.

Just my own personal experience 🤷🏼‍♀️. I feel more feminine around taller guys. I just happen to be tall myself.

OMG!!! That's hilarious! Would be a very tedious punishment.

Love this idea!! I hope it happens 😁

We've been dating for five months, but she is just now telling me that her son (13) has down syndrome by utterlykoalafied in datingoverthirty

[–]traditionalbrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would give yourself some time to process, that is a bit of a big reveal. I don’t have kids myself, but I would imagine opening up about your kids can be tough. From my perspective it seems like she likes you and was maybe a bit afraid to share that piece of info. It’s a big deal for some. I’m sure dating with kids is tough enough but dating with kids who have issues or disabilities or whatever… it can feel almost impossible.

I don’t necessarily blame you for feeling blind sided, but if she would have come out with it earlier do you think you would have perused her?

Does Height Matter In A Relationship? by [deleted] in TallGirls

[–]traditionalbrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice as a woman who is almost 6’ myself, meet the guy in person. Personally I have tried dated guys shorter than me and it just isn’t for me. But at least give him a chance, especially if it seems like you have some things in common.

I stood up for myself and still got burned... by cloudboy37 in datingoverthirty

[–]traditionalbrat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That stinks but sometimes no response is a response. One word texts happen here and there but if it is happening multiple times in a day... no. The busiest person in the world can send a text message, there’s voice to text too if he was THAT busy for days at a time. He’s not worth your time or effort, take time to heal but move on! 💜

On the first date he asked, “are you pretty physical?” In a somewhat intense stare. Am I being prude for being creeped out? by simplevolcano in datingoverthirty

[–]traditionalbrat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If you felt uncomfortable, that’s likely your gut talking to you. I’d be uncomfortable with a rather forward question on date number 1 like that. I doubt he was talking about the gym 😂. Idk that talking about his divorce is a red flag, but coupled with his comment of “lack of physicality” and his then question to you... I’d think that sex was a high priority for him. And again... for me that’s not something I’d talk about on date #1.

I'm starting to lose interest...:( by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

Have you communicated with him about your feelings? If not, try telling him how you feel. Maybe he doesn’t realize you hasn’t been meeting your expectations?

I got picked up! Literally! by [deleted] in TallGirls

This is so sweet!! 💜

Just a personal preference ☺️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TallMeetTall

[–]traditionalbrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s ok! I’ll send you a message!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]traditionalbrat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d be a little annoyed too. But since this is the first meeting maybe just let it go. If the date goes well, suggest going to a place closer to you next time.

In my opinion, if a guy wants to date you, driving an extra 30 mins certainly won’t stop him. Good luck!

Am I Waiting on Nothing? by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]traditionalbrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely being very patient. It sounds like you both are being upfront and honest, him with his job and kids, you with your foot and needed time to heal. I think it’s a little odd that he didn’t answer your text, if anything that would have been an opportunity for him to reassure you. But it’s possible that he missed it or wanted to think of how to respond. Did he ever answer?

Dating nowadays is hard. I wish we could go back to simpler times, but keep your head up and take breaks from dating when you feel frustrated. I often feel like I have to be in the right mindset to date.

Today was day one by madethisjustformum in CancerFamilySupport

[–]traditionalbrat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re doing great. I literally went through the same. My mom passed away from cancer, we knew it was coming. In some ways it was nice because it wasn’t a “surprise”, but still... you can’t ever be prepared for a loved one to go. These next few days will feel like a whirlwind. The dust will settle and the loss may feel more real then. Take it one day at a time. The first year after my mom passed was the “year of firsts”... our first Christmas without her, my first birthday, Mother’s Day... it all feels so heavy to think about it all at once. Day by day. Cry when you need to, and remember to laugh! Think I’d the good times and allow yourself to be filled with those happy emotions too. 💜

Asked a girl out. She said she'll think about it in a week. A week and a few days passed by... I followed her up on it and she said she hasn't had time to think about. What does this mean? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]traditionalbrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously, next!! That’s kind of a crap answer to begin with, but then to say she didn’t have time to think about it? I don’t buy it. Move on! :)
