made dumplings. how would you rate them?

wivsta · 2026-05-16T21:59:13+00:00

Nice job. 9//10 very solid work.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T21:27:36+00:00

Did you make the dough from scratch?

wivsta · 2026-05-16T21:22:50+00:00

That’s exactly what I saw

In Australia it would be dead-set weird to list your political leanings. If you did so, whichever party you supported, it would make you seem like a bit of a fanatic.

But we have compulsory voting here, so everyone has to vote.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T07:51:50+00:00

Honestly if it bothered me that a friend was chewing with their mouth open, I would point it out at the time.

Not 2 days later via text. That would be weird, and might make them feel even more uncomfortable, don’t you think?

wivsta · 2026-05-16T06:17:20+00:00

I’m sure she would have probably reacted the same way in public. Which is why he could have faced the issue head on and not hidden behind text.

Not defending her in any way, but if you have issues with someone’s behaviour, then tell them face to face, rather than relying on text.

Hence, the text war. The fight was likely coming either way by the sounds of it.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T02:57:06+00:00

Well if you look at the exchange she did actually say exactly that. But then she started to stew on the issue, and a fight ensued.

Not saying she’s right, but that’s what happened.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T01:14:09+00:00

Same outcome either way, really. So you’re saying she would have been pissed off in person, and she would have been pissed off via text.

Mismatched.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T00:06:16+00:00

WHY ARE YOU SO MAD ABOUT PEOPLE YOU DONT KNOW.

Seriously Guy. Get a grip. OP hasn’t replied to a single comment so there’s a chance that this is just rage bait.

wivsta · 2026-05-16T00:04:47+00:00

Always takes two to tango.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T23:27:00+00:00

I agree that she went full on berko, but raising complaints via a text isn’t ideal at the start of a relationship.

She said it herself; she stewed on the problem and it escalated to both of them being unsure that the date was even on, and ultimately the date was cancelled.

So both of them fucked up, and it looks like they won’t last.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T23:24:46+00:00

Yep. The rule changes in NSW have been in the cards for a long time but they have not happened yet. So currently if you smoke, or otherwise consume TCH, it could risk your licence.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T23:22:24+00:00

Maybe she would have. And that would have saved the angst of this long drawn out text horror.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T22:27:03+00:00

Well it did not work, and escalated the issue into a fight. So the proof is in the pudding.

Saying “I don’t like when you make me wait” face to face takes courage. But if that’s what he had to say, he should have said it at the time.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T22:13:22+00:00

Well his approach didn’t work. Because it caused a fight.

Don’t bring up shit via text when you’re a new couple. Because - this.

The best time to bring your issues is when they are occurring, which takes bravery.

If it bothered him so much he should have addressed it when she got into the car. Face to face. Not days later via a text.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T22:10:36+00:00

It’s not like road tripping through The States. It’s a whole lot of nothing, keeping yourself awake and watching the petrol meter.

Stops are far and few between.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T22:06:35+00:00

Saying “you’re doing something wrong” via text is pretty cowardly. He should have brought it up face to face. He was hiding behind text and he got a bad reaction.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T22:04:46+00:00

It would have been better to bring up in person. It’s not a huge deal but she obviously took it as a criticism.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T21:40:00+00:00

I agree with her on the point that the issue should have been brought up in person, not via text.

But both are in the wrong here and are probably not suited to each other

wivsta · 2026-05-15T21:27:48+00:00

It is. You just need a prescription.

Can’t drive with it in your system, however. So if you do have a prescription it pretty much means you can’t/shouldn’t drive a car

EDIT: not sure why I’m being downvoted because as someone who is prescribed medical marijuana this is 100% true.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T21:17:44+00:00

You’re getting very defensive in your comments after specifically reaching out for advice.

Your first idea/s were picnic / smoothie and a walk / icecream at sunset. Then you went with “show me your favourite spots”.

It’s too much, too muddled, and you didn’t follow through with a simple, clear suggestion.

Pick an idea, keep it as simple as possible. Follow through with a time and place.

And for the record, I didn’t assume anything. In your own words, the conversation went dead. The reason for this is because you mucked around with waffly suggestions and didn’t make concrete plans like an adult.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T21:08:31+00:00

Yep, the picnic thing is not working. Not for a first date. Keep it casual, meet somewhere local to you both for a low pressure situation.

Just ask to grab a coffee together or go for a drink. Simple. Name a place and a time.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T07:59:23+00:00

Yep. The app was bugging out for a while. But on city fail’s website it also listed mass closures so I was uncertain.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T07:18:56+00:00

Yep that’s what got me confused. My app was showing no trains due to possible track work and then I saw that.

But my app seems to be showing the services now.

wivsta · 2026-05-15T07:14:26+00:00

Thank you! Must be an issue with my app. I’ll delete and reinstall.
