By this time in 2016 I was living in mortal terror of a Trump victory and a bunch of celebrities had already died

I went into a coma around 2014, I would think this was all a dream

'80s me would have loved to help her out with that. But he was only just being born.

That's crazy. I can sorta understand continuing to date someone with a different position on kids. How you feel about kids at 21 really can change by 30, although no one should hedge their bets on that. Things absolutely need to be settled one way or another before you get married.

The only time I remember kids ever coming up on a first date was by accident, wherein I veered into an ancedote about my family nagging me about kids on holidays. which would have been acceptable in a casual conversation with nearly anyone I wasn't on a date with.

And as I was getting at before. This can go beyond "Your girlfriend has boned 50 other dudes." It can be emotionally complicated to talk about your sex history.

I guess it is a matter of how much you find single player compelling / how often you are going to have people of similar skill levels to play with around physically.

I think the first episode had its moments. The reviewer was pushing for it to have more "depth." It looked to me like its heart was in the right place.

When I was a teenager, the whole point of fighting game single player was prep for local multiplayer. At 30, I basically never play fighting games online or have friends over like I did at 15. So fighting games have lost a lot of their appeal.

But like … unless you started dating as teenagers, your significant other is obviously going to have had sexual history before you.

Why is "don't commit yourself to someone who wants completely different things from you!" so difficult.

Maybe just take the initiative in making decisions. Such as saying "Let's check out this restaurant" or "Hey, you want to do Sushi tonight?" instead of leaving it up to them all the time. But like, put some effort into figuring out what they want to do so it is a good time.

I get that some people have insecurities, and sure if you personally want to, there is nothing wrong with doing a complete run through of your sexual history with anyone who will listen. But it is private. I don't believe being married to someone entitles you to it. Although they can surely ask.

Well, she objectively can't blame you for taking a "no" as a "no." If she wanted to have sex, all she had to do was say that and sex could have happened. Hopefully she figured that out with the new guy

I don't know. This feels like the finance's problem.

Yeah, it is hard for me to feel like someone was super led on when the open-relationship was revealed on date-two.

They think the game is fun, and don't understand how frustrating that is for people who want consent to be clear.

Ditto. It's more likely that she wasn't seeing that from his perspective, than she was trying to be malicious.

The Scientology cult is not 1:1 with wtichcraft. But I guess it would have to depend on how deeply she was into that kind of thing before I declared it an outright deal breaker.
