I would never want someone to feel like they need to keep me that updated on their life. Oh my gosh. I would also never want that expectation on me. But, different strokes for different folks!

I’ll agree to keep the dishes to a minimum. Sorry, but that’s bullshit. 95% of the time I’m the one cooking.

Going to Burning Man has certainly been an exercise in vulnerability for me. I keep forcing myself to go and doing things I’m uncomfortable with every year, things I’ve never done before because of giant mental barriers and acknowledge the progress I am making. I’m sure other things work well for others, but Burning…

This is partially what I love about photography - it let’s me capture some of those moments in a way that makes it a little easier for me to remember as well as gives me a chance to share them!

I feel like we need good systems to help train “friend” level people in people’s lives to look for certain things that would be indicators that the person needs more help as well as making sure those people can easily figure out how to get the person more help. I know this already happens to some degree, but…

No, but they do have markings from other companies with the year included.

I’m in LA itself and there are places with missing sidewalks and some of the streets regularly flood leaving you to cross 8+ foot wide running water along the sidewalks & the water sometimes covers a decent amount of the sidewalks. I’m in an area where many streets were poured in the 1920's. Some have been resurfaced.…

I admit that I have fully chosen to wear sandals when it comes to walking in the rain(also in CA.) Just make sure you’re not going to slip too much in whatever shoes you choose.

Lasted longer than it should have, but I’m not in it now & I have learned, which is all that really matters!

I work from home 2 days a week & work in software in the more technical aspects. I live alone and I’m a bit of an introvert and in my 30's, so... yeah. Sometimes it can be a couple days between seeing people. I’m actually not really bored (I have tons of hobbies and keep myself busy both inside and outside the home).…

Tension can be good some days, but frankly, even with some pre-event action, there’s still tension as you can easily refer to what just happened and what can subsequently happen once you’re back home again.

I was with one guy for a while who would RUN to the bathroom and wash his mouth or just obsessive wipe it on a towel after going down on me. To say the least, the obsessive clean up was a huge turn off. I didn’t want any more oral, thanks. I know what I taste like and frankly it’s not that bad. I actually like people…

Is a date the same thing as just doing something?

I just got out a 10 yr relationship and I have no idea what “date night” is, really.

I did this in college. I had the smallest meal plan and it was all you can eat & it was accepted that people could take their food+trays back to their dorm or take small amounts of food with them after their meal/on the way to class. So I would just make sure to get some stuff from the salad bar & saved it to make…

That doesn’t really sound like a problem. Sounds like the sex was the best part of the date and you cut out the fat ;)

Yeah, I’m with Dorothy... I think the point is to open up the options. Fuck/suck when the mood strikes instead of sticking to a script.

I don’t really consider doing the math to figure out if I literally have enough cash to pay for something an emotional process.....

Yeah, as I stand there and blab about what it means to be an introvert and extrovert, usually after some good conversation, people sometimes look at me like I must be super confused because how is this introvert doing all this talking?

I’m actually in a situation right now where I think I was mentally checked out of my last (10+ yr) relationship for a little while/in a pit of depression because of it. Now that I’m out of the relationship?? Holy crap, joyous bird!!!
