I CANNOT HANDLE BEING CALLED OUT ON MY DUMBASS OPINIONS ABOUT ANTI-VIRUS AND SECURITY. I REALLY LIKE TO THINK THAT I KNOW THINGS HERE

INSTEAD I AM GOING TO WHINE ABOUT IT IN OTHER THREADS SO MY OPINION CAN FEEL VALIDATED IN AN ECHO CHAMBER I LIKE

Dude probably takes blood pressure meds or something so he can't get hard for long without viagra.

Oh he has thyroid issues, dunno maybe those affect your dick in some way, or the meds for it do.

A lot of cheating seems to happen because people want to jump ship for another fantasy rather than work on their reality.

Is that honestly so surprising though? Reality sucks and is hard. Fantasy is easy and exciting.

That's why I try to get my fantasy out with a bunch of sweaty nerds sitting around a table rolling dice and pretending to be elf princesses. I've put that energy and desire somewhere safe, healthy and sociable, so I don't try and retreat to fantasy when life gets uncomfortable.

Me [29F] with my husband [37M] of six years, recent hygiene issues
(self.relationships)

submitted 4 hours ago * by ahoythrowaway

Short and sweet. My husband and I are a happy, normal couple. This is a brand spanking new issue.

My husband doesn't seem to be wiping as thoroughly as he used to and I have found poop on the sheet after he left for work this morning. It's only happened a couple of times, but it's becoming frequent enough that it's an issue for me. He travels for work and is only home on weekends, so it's not like it's an every night thing. He sheets for his living accommodations are also usually fecal free when they come home.

I want to approach him about it, but I don't want to embarrass him. E-mail? Do I wait until he's home?

Edit: His hemorrhoids might be a contributing factor, but I still need help broaching the topic.

tl;dr: Poop on the sheets belongs to my husband. How do I broach the topic?

Depending on their location and how bad he has them, they can create a breach of the, er... aperture due to swelling. Aside from the blood, they make farts much more of a gamble. He's probably farting in his sleep and his butt leaks when he does it. This is the weirdest internet post I have ever made.

:agreed:

The scariest part about doxxing isn't all the personal information people can find and what they can do with it, it's the fact that it's so easy to do. You don't even have to be good at it to find somebody's information a lot of the time. A little surface scratch will get you to somebody's front door more often than not.

Subjunctive posted:

That's not at all the same thing.

I'm not peeping in your window by typing your screen name into a google search bar and seeing what comes up. You shouldn't have a real sense of privacy when you post online because the internet is an information archival system and you don't control the places you're sending that data to more often than not. If the thought of somebody easily tracking you down makes you uncomfortable, be mindful of your privacy and very proactive about not letting your online life and real life bleed into each other, that's about all you can do short of not using the internet altogether.

Even then, you can't do anything about public records searches and your local newspapers. All the information that can be made private is as private as you make it. If you keep it under lock and key all the time you're right to be offended when somebody finds a way to get access to it, but if you're going to stand on your front lawn and strip don't be mad at somebody for stopping to gawk from time to time

Let me go ahead and clarify that whole thing: Years after we broke up we spoke briefly in emails, and during that chain of emails she told me that "we live in the matrix" and that I "need to wake up." Apparently the truth of our reality, or as much of it as she explained to me anyway, was that the lizard aliens are real, and among us, and they created us as a slave race so that we could evolve, develop technology, and build space guns for them. This was somehow true because we are slowly weaponizing space? I asked why they would need to make a slave race and wait all the time it would take for us to develop technology if they had technology to begin with, and she said I was an idiot and then made fun of me for being in college.

I have no mouth and I must post
Read it before guessing the ages.

I [21f] had a first date baking-date with my neighbour's grandson [24m] I don't know what to expect from here as he didn't kiss me.

quote:

Funny story.
Kind of a long one.

I had some issues with getting locked outside my bedroom and my neighbour's cute, older grandson helped me out by climbing through my bedroom window. This was last monday. We hit it off, he gave me his number and all week he's been sending me "good morning" texts and asking about my day, so we texted a bit before our first "date".

He asked me if I could show him how to bake (because I said, as a thank you for opening my bedroom door I'd bake him something) and later on he texted me that he "really wants to get to know me" on Saturday he came over and we baked together in my kitchen. We were throwing flour at each other, taking pictures and joking about everything.
I just wanted to say first: I haven't had the best track-record with guys. My last boyfriend was emotionally abusive and intense and I'm pretty sure I don't know how "Normal" dating goes in the sense that it doesn't move fast, and with this guy, he's really decent and I don't want to rush. I have a lot of self-doubt issues.

So he came over, we baked a bunch of stuff, had a flour fight (he also slapped my butt after cornering me off in the kitchen, left a nice floury print behind, which he took a picture of) we hung out in my room for a few hours and we talked a lot about ourselves -- more than what I'd think you'd do for a first date -- so we learned a lot about each other. Weirdly, we ended up talking about our exes, but he did mention one of his more than twice, and i gave him the benefit of the doubt since it was a 5 year relationship and I know ones of that length tend to influence you later in life.

0Halfway through the night he told me he might have to go see his sister (who lives at a different place) but turns out he didn't and he seemed happy that he could stay, so, since we were both covered in flour he went home to change and came back, and we watched netflix in my living room for a few more hours. He finally left at 3am after spending literally 12 hours in my house with me.

I thought he was going to kiss me and there were a few times on the "date" where I complained about getting flour in my eyes, so what he would do is he'd bend down and stare, and I mean STARE into my eyes (he did this about 4 times) he also, when we had the flour fight, would attack me from behind and cover my face in flour. He also slapped me on the butt with a floury hand, and cupped my cheek with flour instead of slapping me (which I had been doing, lol) and we even took a lot of forehead-touching photos (still covered in flour) that honestly made us look even closer.

There was also one point where he told me when he enjoys something he makes a little "Humming" sound and he hugged me sideways, pressed our faces together and hummed (it was really sweet) we both turned around and we held onto each other in a hug for a least a full minute. Then I pulled away because I said my boobs hurt a bit, lol.

Before he left, I was a little surprised that he hadn't tried to kiss me since he had the chance to, but didn't. Felt kinda weird about that, so, I kissed him on the cheek right before he turned to leave. He looked at me, smiled and said "aww, thank you"
About 10 minutes after he left he sent me a text that said something along the lines of: "i had a great time, thanks for tonight, you're a great cook and I hope we can do it again" we talked for a little bit through text, then I went to my bedroom window and he went to his and we talked across the road. After that he sent me a text "sorry about your butt. and sweet dreams x"

He left his stuff at my house too (his hat, lighter) he was also a little worried about all the mess we made (and was concerned my mum would be upset if she saw it)

Since he told me about a movie earlier that night I suggested we watch it sometime this week. He agreed. So at some point he's coming over.

Do you think he'd kiss me on the second date? Should I kiss him? I don't want to be too forward. My older friends say they're surprised he hasn't tried to kiss me. Is it normal not to kiss on the first date even if you get as close as we did?

We're planning to build a fort in our living room (I feel like a kid, but it's fun because he's a little kooky) for our second date while watching the movie. I'd like him to then.

This guy is not shy, he's quite outgoing. So that's why I'm a little taken aback and it's making me think he might not like me romantically. I honestly know I'm overthinking it.

Edit: I also painted his nails ;)

Another edit: he's coming over on Wednesday night. Wish me luck! Thank you for all the comments, I appreciate every single one :)

TL;DR Guy came over to bake in my kitchen, had a flour fight, it was a lot of fun and he got super close but didn't kiss me. Why? Does he even want to?

So what? Worst-case scenario, she makes a friend instead of a boyfriend.

... well, okay, given this thread, the worst-case scenario is that she gets deeply emotionally entangled with this guy and finds out that he's a virulent racist who showers once every fiscal quarter and only eats de-dusted Flamin' Hot Cheetos, and when she asks him politely not to poo poo his pants in her car he freaks out and chokes her unconscious before throwing her out of the car and driving it off a cliff, but...
