Avenging_Mikon posted:Ice skating is on the eventually list. My building has a gym and I’m using the stationary bike there, I can post and ride. I can finally do 30 minutes, but my heart rate averages 145. Elevated heart rate is good, so long as you're not going over your max (220 - your age). Try interval training too, it's really good at burning fat continuously.

My partner is 9 years older than me and the age difference rarely, rarely comes up, like every so often there is a movie/TV show or bar that I don't remember. But I'm in my mid 30s so I think we are both more grounded in our adult lives and friendships than high school/college, neither of us has any desire for kids so there is no ticking time bomb or worries about raising children as we age, we have both been in serious relationships so we have more grounded expectations than someone in their early 20s and we both hosed around a lot and have had open relationships (ours isn't) so I think we got our other fish in the sea, spread our seed out of system. A few times it has been weird though because I look a lot younger than I am so some people think there is closer to a 20 year age difference than a 10, a friend of ours has actually been dating someone closer to a 20 year age difference for a few months and he thought we were around the same age until last weekend. Oh, honey, no, I'm closer to your boyfriend's age than yours.

That was only a mild irritation, the multiplier effect of whining about an outdoor mall trip and then caroling (because more walking) is what put her over the top. Don't get me wrong, caroling is lame as gently caress but not because of the physical demands. Otoh, what the gently caress do I know I'm not on the verge of getting confined to a rascal scooter

MF_James posted:What? Do you live in some weird world where there isn't traffic? I live in Chicago, I commute 29ish miles to work, it takes me 45 minutes, not because I drive 2 miles an hour, but because the first 2-3 miles to get to the highway take 20-30 minutes. Same in Dallas, I commute 12 miles, the drive to the highway makes up about 20% of my commute miles and about 80% of my commute time. Coming home I will be stuck in traffic for an extra 30-40 minutes if I drive straight home instead of stopping by happy hour and chatting with friends for an hour-ish and then breeze home in about 10 minutes.

I highly recommend going to reddit and reading the comments though the story itself is gone now. I put a few up a couple pages ago but I was tickled pink. Humans aren't meant to run 3.1 miles because of our upright spines! Her doctor said so!

fruit on the bottom posted:Fiancé (27M) is angry I (29F) am opposed to his choice of name for our unborn daughter (due in February). Am I disrespecting his feelings (or even his culture)? Or can you guys see what I'm saying? My last name is spelled differently than it sounds and while it isn't the worst thing, it does get annoying. My wife didn't take my last name in part because she couldn't deal with it. (I really, honestly, don't care. I fell in love with her with her name.) My name only has a superfluous 'e' that changes the vowel sound. I can't imagine dealing with a name with that many opportunities for mispronunciation, let alone it sounding completely different. It would happen when someone who met her wrote down her name too. I guess she would have a certain protection from Facebook stalking.

Heritage and personal history and poo poo is well and good, but if I moved to the sub-Saharan desert and married one of the locals I'd pick a name that isn't weird in that culture. Preferably one that works in my culture as well. Giving your kid a name that has special meaning to you but is weird as hell in the area they'll grow up is just narcissistic.

I already go by my middle name, and a shortened version of it due to pronunciation reasons, to try and keep people from screwing it up. People see my name and want to pronounce it with a long e sound instead of an i. So I'll constantly be incorrectly called, like 'Teeger' instead of 'Tiger' (no, my name is not actually Tiger). When they pronounce it wrong, I have to ask 'do you think my parents would really name me that?!'Transmogrifier posted:Yes, I remember that story. Does anyone recall it? Would love to read it again. Was that that stupid motherfucker that demanded a paternity test because one of his friends convinced him that like half of all men are raising children that aren't even really theirs and didn't even know it?

We hung out, we clicked and after a couple of weeks we officially started dating. I was smitten. He was the first man I ever actually loved and really wanted to spent my future with. After three years together we got engaged. He proposed and I said yes. I thought I would get the fairy tale ending that I never even knew I wanted.

This went a completely different direction to what I was expecting: I [23 M] have a rather big problem with my girlfriend [25 F] of three years dad [50-60 M]. quote:My girlfriends dad is staying with us for a month from Russia. I bought his tickets as a surprise for her. He's been here for a week so far and we have only been alone together for a few hours at a time. Tonight my girlfriend is at work until late and it will be just me and him all evening. Here's where the problem lies.

Eh, maybe this is a hot take and the dude definitely sounds like an extreme turbo douche, but someone finding out they can't have children getting a girl pregnant is liable to get loving angry and suspect foul play, realistically.
