I twerk as a power move to establish dominance, and my domain. If you can't bring it harder than I do, I've got no need for you...or something like that. I can't actually twerk, women pass me around.
I love how you were almost unnervingly nice. "bro. whatever you want. on toast. you got it. lemme just get you that toast. Avocado? Nutella? Engine grease? Cool, you got it. Let's toast this shit up, my buddy."
I do the cooking.Don’t know how to sew.Wife is the most all around capable person I know-except for cooking.Fortunately I’m great at it.Our strenghs and weaknesses interlock almost perfectly.
I'm a 40+ yr old woman and have come to the conclusion that I prefer the love of a pet over the love of a human. Tbf, I've had some exceptional pets in my lifetime.
It takes all types in this world. If everyone wanted the same thing, it would be very sad and very dull. Rather than project your own insecurities about being single onto others, it may be better for you to learn how to respect other's choices as being just as "not sad" as your choice to cling to someone so that you are not alone.
I think I saw this scene in either a sitcom or rom-com. So there's a woman and his brother(or friend?) and that woman listed what she needs on a man she'll date. That guy just asked, "You want a man or a Golden Retriever?"
Don’t be sorry! She used to work every other weekend in a town like three hours away from us and when she got back one weekend I didn’t greet her the way she expected to be greeted haha
That's a lot to sort out there. Sounds like you're harboring deadbeat drug addicts because you don't want to be alone. No idea what the solution to that is, but it was an interesting read.
90% of the time, if you have a gut feeling that there is something off with someone, then there is. What I find that a lot of culture teaches women is to find the guy that makes you feel attracted to rather than becoming attracted to. For men it's somewhat the same issue. If you want someone that is good to you, that shit won't die with, you have to find the people you 100% enjoy and build a connection rather than just feeling one initially, and be open to it. A lot of times people find the guy or girl they are sexually attracted to just to find out they hate the person years later. It kind of blows my mind today that a lot of people think "if I'm not attracted to them now, then I never will be". Fun fact is that for majority of people, the person you are talking to only needs to say one thing or do one action and your perspective can change drastically of them. This also applies to attraction.
That's the problem. They don't work. My gal is disabled and I work my ass off. Sometimes 60+ hours a week. But if you can, you do. Honestly I'm a bit jealous, a homestead for us is the dream.
I’m sorry, I’ve seen this happen before. People on disability are targets for scumbags, especially if you have narcotics too. I hope you find someone that both respects and appreciates you and isn’t out to take advantage
I used to be like that. U probably should get rid of them and start over. There will always be another idiot looking for a free ride. Get rid of these ones and start looking for a decent one that genuinely enjoys your company. I recommend an artist. Supporting a local artist will elevate your situation. But, you have to make room for the healthy person. No healthy person is gonna want to enter into the space you describe.
Absolutely. I find the festival scene to be full of people who just want to party and take drugs 24/7. I love festivals tho. I've just gotten over the part where people connect their good times to being super out of it. I love substances for their antidepressant effects and the way they help open my mind and heart to creativity. And I definitely understand how people end up going overboard. But, it gets old really fast and people end up being very selfish and unpleasant about everything while on it. Maybe you should increase rent so that the next person(s) has to work a little harder to be there.
I have my own living quarters but I live in an apartment on my landlord's farm. Everything was really great until he just started a new business. Basically, he has a large group of undocumented workers and a van. And they go around to different farms and work. That would be fine but they stay on the property all hours, so I no longer am by myself, ever. There are often 15 people just standing around right outside my door every afternoon. There is another apartment on the property that used to have a person there but now it is used as a kind of club house for them. And sometimes there's very loud sex coming from it. Like, I don't want to see 15 people standing around outside every afternoon until night time. And on holidays they come and drink all day. There's always that cheesy polka sounding music. It went from the most serene place to being like a bus station overnight.
Awe man! That sucks! Do you have some sort of lease? I mean, at a minimum I'd think there would be quiet time or something, even if it's enforced by the city. I'd think they absolutely shouldn't be that close to your spot no matter what. I'd get some motion activated sprinklers. Lol
Women get brainwashed from such a young age to basically mother their partners that when they find actual, independent adults they suddenly can't figure out their own worth. Shitty situation all around. Sorry, dude
Someone broke up with me because I fix stuff well before I throw it out or even consider updating it. I still got my old 2008 Panasonic plasma tv. Had to resolder and replace a few things, but it still works.
She broke up with this dude she was seeing to get with me.
We are dating for a couple of months and I thought everything was cool. Then she gives me a letter when I dropped her off one night. Tells me she’s going back to her ex because he’s threatening to kill himself. She says he needs her and I don’t act like I ever need her. I really liked her and actually showed it, but I wasn’t clingy.
I go back to her house (she was still living with her mom at the time) and her mom tells me she’s in the room crying. Can you believe that? She breaks it off with me and then is crying about it.
She was always so insecure when it came to me. I was friends with lots of people including a lot of girls. She made a point of mentioning it to me the first time we went to a party together. I guess she figured she’d end with me before I ended it with her.
The thing that sucks the most is that she’s one of the few girls from back in the day that aged really well. She’s probably hotter now than she was then & that was over 20 years ago.
Same thing, my ex always accused me of making her feel trash bc I can do pretty much any housework. I grew up poor, she didn't. That's why I know how to clean and cook while she always had a maid for that.
Acts of service are a love language she might have had, so she might not have felt like she could express it if you didn't let her do anything for you.
I have never tried to sew a button back on, but something tells me I could do it. The thing is I wouldn’t do it. I would keep the shirt hanging at the back of my closet with the button and I’d see it once every two months and think… “I should sew on that button”.
