Meme Emulator posted:Sorry but on these forums even 3 years difference is an irreconcilable age gap I'm a minute younger then her, and two minutes older than her sister. Can I date either or both of them or should I wait for someone more age appropriate? E: poo poo! Didn't adjust for daylight savings, I'm a monster.

Everyone in le reddit thread would probably feel very at home in Korea where youre expected to do every little thing with your peer group of your exact age and a one year difference makes someone your senior or junior deserving of respect and deference or guidance and support respectively

Also the age cohorts go by every calender year so if youre born on December 31st youre at a distinct disadvantage to someone born on January 1st of the same year because theyre literally a year older than you but you are both put into the same grade at school and expected to compete with one another

it's not a huge age gap but 21 and 27 are different enough life stages that it seems unlikely the relationship will last, then he'll probably have messed up his relationship with his best friend too. Me [22 F] with my boyfriend [23 M] 3 years not transferring to long hair very gracefully. quote:Hi. This is such a small non-issue but I thought a forum like this might be helpful. I need some advice putting across gently to my boyfriend that the way he's going about growing out his hair could be better. He's always had short hair for the time we've dated and been together and decided around 6/7 months ago to grow it out. I was happy with it! I always find him sexy and gorgeous and I have really liked long hair in the past. However, 7 months into it there's a lot of growth and he refuses to style or get it trimmed so it's in an actual style. It's universally kind of disliked and he keeps saying he'll wait until a year in to get it cut at all. I've tried jokingly explaining that I've grown out my hair from bob-length a few times and a big part of that was going to the hairdresser every couple of months to ensure I had a style, without them getting too scissor happy. But, I don't want to hurt his feelings or make him think I'm trying to control him. He also reads a lot of internet forums which say that you can't touch it with scissors until a certain length. I'm not sure about that. It's kind of a mullet at this point and I'm sure just evening it out and adding some face framing bits would be nicer? why do they never post pictures.

Honestly the moment he decided to sleep with his buddy's little sister was the moment that friendship ended. He obviously thought she was worth it.

girl pants posted:I dunno guys, I think the fact that he hooked up with her on her 21st birthday when she was probably hammered and the fact that they hid it from her family is kinda... the whole thing just makes me feel gross. Not like, "this is legally actionable" gross, but just kind of sleazy. But whatever. I feel like when someone has a brother who is insanely overprotective and freaked the gently caress out at the sight of her even kissing a guy, keeping it hidden is more understandable.

I dunno, I'm 31 and my girlfriend's 26, and we've been together since I was 28 and she was 23. I mean, the gap between 21 and 23 is at least a little meaningful, maybe, but I'm not sure I'd call their relationship doomed based on the age gap. Now, her brother/his friend, on the other hand, that's a pretty major complicating factor for both of them. On the one hand, if they have an actual, committed relationship that works out, I imagine the brother would have to be at least a little happy that his sister is with someone he clearly thinks highly of. But man, even if the brother can get over his weird protectiveness, things are going to turn really ugly if they have a nasty breakup.

The only person who’s loving up the friendship is the girl’s brother (who is also loving up his relationship with his sister)

Yeah, pretty much. Obviously you're taking a risk if you date someone related to a close friend. If the relationship goes south and there's a bad breakup, you're putting that friend in a really uncomfortable situation and you shouldn't be surprised if your friendship gets pretty strained for at least a while. But that's not some sort of terrible sin against friendship or anything, and clearly the brother is far too protective of his, y'know, adult sister.

Me [24 F] with my coworker [40s M] made a strange comment at work and I'm not sure how to reactquote:I work in the oil & gas sector at a very small company, and have for the past 5 months. There are 4 people in the office regularly, with the boss in for a portion of each day, and 1 more who is here alternating weeks. Being the nature of the work we do, there is a lot of off-colour humour, most of which I am okay with.

Is it wrong for me [26F] and my [29M] boyfriend to ask my cousin [31M] for a place to stay?quote:Me and my boyfriend of 4 years have been struggling to get by ever since we finished college. He studied in law and just recently got a position which doesn't make too much. Thankfully, he is able to move up the ladder in the future but for now he brings in just under $40,000 a yr.

He had an MSW and he thought that meant that people should feed him and give him housing for free because he was too good to work a lovely job while looking for a better one. I say 'used to know' because he eventually got turfed out by every single person who tried to help him for being a lovely leech and he's probably living under a bridge now.

Also early childhood education is really not known for their lucrative preschool teacher positions. Hell, teaching kindergarten would probably let her gain another 10-15k/year.

I want to know what councellors, professors, or financial managers she talked to that didn't tell her and her boyfriend that a brand-new lawyer and a preschool teacher aren't going to make a ton of money. Like right now I'm picturing her putting a puppet on her hand and going "am I going to make bank?" and replying "YES YOU ARE" in a goofy falsetto.

It's like triple yes, because 40k/yr is less than you get paid as an intern in a lower cost of living area. How the heck does she think that's not low income in NYC. You can literally make more than that working at a restaurant in NYC without being a chef or anyone with a skill other than "shows up and does what they're told". If she has experience with preschoolers she could easily get paid 30/hr or more being a nanny or some poo poo and bring in 50% more than her husband.
