Ooo! Another life-saving subway feature that I’ve seen in certain US cities and in Barcelona (I’m sure many other places as well) is electric route signs where the train you’re currently on is represented by a blinking dot, moving along the route. Stops that are now behind you are a solid light. Stops that are up…

It should surprise nobody visiting Seattle that the Space Needle is (gasp!) a massive tourist trap with a seriously overrated restaurant at the top of it. It’s a good rule of thumb wherever you go that “tourist attraction” and “tourist trap” may as well be one and the same.

DC resident here. I’m constantly surprised at the attraction of expensive, tourist trap museums when there are dozens of free museums in the Smithsonian system. It is completely possible to see a ton of great museums in this city without ever paying a dime. Sites like the National Zoo, the Portrait Gallery and the…

Bought a decent Trek fitness bike 4 years ago. I fell in love with cycling, lost a bunch of weight, and now spend most of my summer weekends out camping and mountain biking.

The bidet dude? Is absolutely correct. I hate using the bathroom away from home. I’ve installed three myself (I’ve moved and put one in for my mother). You’ll save on TP and always feel clean.

If no one says condoms this whole thread issa lie.

For men, yes:

Stop demanding that anyone outside your incel/mgtow group validates your whining. Men get nixed because they suck at basic conversation and also either put no effort into their profile, or has something in there that’s a screaming red flag - not because they don’t look like Armie Hammer.

The advice I would give would not be for her to “just suck it up and deal with one date”, but rather telling him to “knock it off dude, she isn’t interested”. Of course, I’m the kind that would have cut off all contact with him as much as possible after the second him not taking no for an answer.

I think it’s an outcrop of the self esteem generation...I think kids were taught to feel special all the time and that grew into “avoid pain”...couple that with digital communication and weakened social ties overall and you have a recipe for “I am going to do the easy thing”. I, equally, don’t want to be “man yells at…

As long as you say it to a person who you are sure won’t murder you. Because men murder women for that kind of thing.

Agreed 100%.

I learned dating in my late 30's..(after not dating for 15 yrs).. way easier to say “you know, just not feeling it”... and cut the cord. Don’t drag shit out... grow up, own it. Even if it doesn’t come out right... just blabber it. And if they want an explanation, give em one even if it hurts their feelings... it may…

Ghosting is. the. worst. It’s infected pretty much everyone and everything. Interview for a job? You’ll never hear back. Join a group? They’ll disappear leaving you hanging. Go on a date? LOL - I have twenty conversations a month with people bemoaning that a four month relationship ended (apparently) because one party…

For me, that mostly backfired when I realized that the negative traits were mostly traits that all partners in a relationship bring to the table and that if I wanted to avoid them, it meant avoiding relationships entirely.  And now I still want a relationship, but have half the enthusiasm for dating that I used to…

Remember that the dumper already mourned the loss before the dump and the dumped has to mourn after. So everyone need their time and space.

There’s a great exchange in the movie “Swingers” where Mikey’s friend tells him that women somehow have the ability to sense when you’ve truly gotten over them, and then they’ll call.

Grieving time should be proportional to the type of rejection.

I dunno, I think it helps to keep things positive and ask yourself what you have learned from this relationship and how can it help you grow as a person. Even in past relationships that could certainly be labeled as, “I don’t want to deal with that again”, I have tried to not focus on the negative that person brought,…

I dont think so. I think she is saying, if the guy says “no” to face-timing before meeting up, then it is “game over” as in the chance of dating or meeting is over. Saying it’s “Game on” would mean she would be into it, which would contradict what she is advocating for.
