Totally! I sort of taught my ex how to talk about his feelings and then he never stopped. Our fights would just be these overly communicative discussions that ended with us both crying. It was exhausting.

Ha! Don't be sorry, it is totally hilarious.

Yeah, as I've gotten older I have tempered a bit and I can usually pull myself back to cheerful, which is my default. But I also have just come to terms with having a ton of feelings. I'm trying to date people who are a little more even-keeled, but that can have issues too. Sometimes I'm like, "Feel something you…

Hmm... this is hard to describe, but I'm going to try. Let me paint a picture of when I was in this (Long Distance which definitely made all the feelings more): I'm out at a party and I'm drinking and a song I love comes on so I feel happy and start singing along and then i think of boyfriend who also likes this song…

Ahahahaha. Speaking as someone who has too many feelings and dated someone with too many feelings for like 3 years, it's for sure a thing.

Yeah, I would never characterize it as honoring. I guess I'm imagining a situation where they were doing it in private to make themselves feel better? I dunno, I may be giving them too much benefit of the doubt. Actually, no I definitely am. They blow.

On topic—yeah I get how they've got to work a shitty system, but it would be nice if that didn't in turn make it worse for us normals by being held to those standards.

I equated this with the Mormon thing too! I see your point, but I guess my issue is that they're publicizing it. Like if they had a list of names at a church instead of on Twitter I would be more sympathetic. As it is now, it feels more shamey.

I <3 you.

Ha! He's just so dreamy.

I use that movie as a test for potential partners. If you don't have fun watching Down with Love, we do not have much in common.

It's exactly discomfort, but I just would rather go to someone who has the parts in question. I recently had this abdominal pain and my regular doctor was out of town. SO I went to a dude doctor in her practice and he thought it was appendicitis but wasn't positive. A few hours later, I go to the emergency room and…

YES. You're so right!

Every time I meet a new guy, I start calculating the likelihood of him being a rapist. Pretty sure I need therapy.

I am decidedly NOT having fraternal thoughts about these boys. Le sigh.

Yeah... They're def racist. I mean it's one thing to be like, "Huh, I've never dated outside my race. That's weird and I wonder what that says about me/where I live." but the Kim Kardashian comment definitely moves them from accidental societal racism to just straight-up. Sorry your friends blow :/

Ooo oo! Hi, I'm GoodGracious. I've hated John Mayer since my body is a wonderland, but I felt like I had to hide it. I've been a proud John Mayer Hater since he turned out to be racist.

Yeah... add to it that I injured myself falling down whilst walking drunk in platforms. They didn't ask my about my drinking habits either. Man, as a white skinny blonde I have it made! Until I get diabetes from all alcohol and cookies anyway.

Yeah, not only have I never been asked about my eating/exercise habits, but when I hurt my ankle I had two doctors urge me to lay off exercising. Like lolz won't be a problem, doc.

And now everyone in my office knows I'm not doing work because I literally lolled.
