She just wants a low-profile solitaire. Low-profile means it doesn't physically stick out a lot so it doesn't snag on everything. That's like the most reasonable request ever.

Honestly, if he was going to name her after high end jewellery, you could do worse than Tiffany.

I loving love IKEA. Probably half of my home is IKEA furniture and I've never gotten why IKEA is supposed to be such a relationship tester. Sometimes I like to make a day trip out of it, and sometimes we just go directly to the warehouse section and are in and out. I have occasionally done day trips and lunch at IKEA with my mom.

I think it's probably just because the store is large and linear enough that it can provoke far more aggravation than usual if people are not both on the same page regarding browsing, because it can go on for so long without an end in sight. If you both want to be in and out quickly, or both are excited to furnish an apartment together, or both want something in between it can be a great experience, but the experience of being dragged along for multiple hours window shopping things you don't care about/need or being forced to quickly rush through decisions about home furnishings at a destination shopping location are both pretty awful, something which IKEA's size and design amplify. Add in stylistic differences or other forms of stress (sleep, work, time) and you can see how things would have the potential to blow up.

Dude and GF in the reddit IKEA post is a pretty good example- he basically wanted to look up an item number and retrieve it from the warehouse, while his GF apparently wanted to spend a full day browsing together. At least one of them was always going to be unhappy about the experience.

I have no mouth and I must post
My (32m) girlfriend (28f) of 8 months acts like a teenager on the internet

quote:

I started noticing her internet behavior more over the past few months and it's been kind of bothering me. My girlfriend is a very intelligent and mature person, but when she gets online it's like she acts totally different.

For one, she sends me screencaps of her "trolling" people. I mean, trolling? She's almost 30. If you haven't outgrown that by your early 20s, I think there's possibly a problem. She thinks these comment wars she gets into are funny, and turning people's words around on them and baiting them is her idea of having fun. She's delighted when someone gets mad at her. I don't see how this can be fun to anyone unless they have a teenager's mindset.

She does this on Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook mainly. Yes, Facebook. I didn't even know it was possible to troll or "shitpost" (learned that one from her) on Facebook. Apparently there's a whole world of Facebook "groups" where people post memes and do things like this, so she gets reinforcement of this kind of humor there. She said she admins a "dank meme stash". The memes don't make any sense. Humor has to have some logic to it, right? But she's just posting pictures of brains in increasing size or these lovely MS Paint drawings about being a male virgin. She also runs an account that she says is part of Weird Twitter where everyone else also posts nonsensical tweets and cross reference each other. She even treats things in this way that no one would think of as funny, like politics. I don't get it.

I guess I just feel like if you can't be serious online at 28, will you ever be? Seeing the things she sends me expecting me to laugh is making me wonder how compatible we are. It seems like a silly thing to break up over. Is this worth talking to her about?

TL;DR My girlfriend's internet behavior and weird sense of humor is making me question how much of an adult she actually is.

Second, if this is how your girlfriend blows of steam, as long as she's not harassing, bullying, or otherwise being truly toxic to people online, let her be.

In no way does humor have to make sense; humor is actually drawn from absence of logic (more commonly known as, you guessed it, absurdity), and it's possible you guys simply aren't amused by the same things. It happens.

If she's not hurting anyone, I don't see why you're bothered by her attitude; humor is a sign of good mental health, and should be encouraged.

Yeah, that's why I was confused about the takeaway that I'd quoted. Camming is sex work, but it certainly is not sex, and definitely not having sex in exchange for money.

My oldest piece of IKEA furniture is a Billy bookcase that's probably around 30 or more years old and has survived 4 moves.

I'll admit it's made of sturdier stuff than my Benno shelves though. Some of those have had to have a bit of extra work done to keep them from falling apart.

My entire state doesn't have an ikea and they only recently started shipping here but the cost of shipping is high enough that you may as well get real furniture.

All these people saying don't shop at ikea are taking their ikea privilege for granted.

He said she was sleeping around for money. She wasn't sleeping around at all. Camming is definitely sex work but there's a reason it's not the same as actually having sex with strangers for money.

Never said she was a whore or that sex work was a bad thing. Also, different people can point out different things from a single post!

When I see people jumping through semantic hoops like she is, I see someone who isn't an honest narrator.

Bro she literally said in the post that she was a camgirl who stopped camming when it was bothering her boyfriend and her boyfriend said she was meeting up with people to have sex with them against his wishes. That isn't 'semantic hoops', that's straight up lying on his part. And nobody said it wasn't sex work so I don't know why you're arguing that at all
