Ah, refreshing.

Functionally it does seem like it'd work better than those claw machines at the arcade. Maybe I'd finally end up with a toy or stuffed animal.

My belief on relationships is that, at best you're gonna find someone who's 60% compatible with you, and the remaining 40% is between the two of you to make it work. There's no perfect soulmate.

agreed. all children's books that end with a "happy ending " should include "and they lived happily (WITH A LOT OF INTENTIONAL RELATIONSHIP MAINTENANCE AND FLEXIBILITY) ever after"

Old man posting:

The road we have to take to get from our street into town used to be on the edge of town, and now has much more traffic than it used to. It's semi-bendy with two lanes, no shoulders, and in the woods. There are three little streets like ours that have no choice but to use it, and a fair amount of houses directly on it, so people walk and bike on it as well. It's a 40 MPH zone, which means people regularly do 45.

There is a section of our city website dedicated to traffic concerns that includes a form to fill out that then goes to a Traffic Engineer. I wrote something up pointing to a specific road designation defined by the Minnesota Statutes suggesting it would be more appropriate as a 35 MPH zone, and was optimistic when it gave me the name of the Traffic Engineer who would be reviewing the submission.

Next day I get this email:

quote:

To change the speed on a city street you'll need to bring your concern to a City Council meeting. That will begin the process of a possible speed change. Meetings are held on the 2nd and 4th Monday of the month at 6pm.

which, ok, fair enough I guess, but it came from a sergeant in the city PD with zero response or even inclusion of the actual Traffic Engineer. Added bonus, I searched her name to see if she was the officer who pulled me over a few months ago, and one of the first hits on Google was a report of government salaries saying the PD sergeant earns a base salary of $125k per year!

Mrs Euro and I are in a mutually-assured destruction pact at this point. Neither of us wants to date again, she knows I would be very bad at it, and I know that her career ambitions aren't achievable without my support (moral and financial).

We saw otters in one of the two big ponds that separates us and two other houses from the rest of the street a couple weeks ago. 10/10 animal sighting, would recommend.

My dad and I saw some sort of stoat/weasel/ermine/mink the last time we were in Canada to fish, which was a new one for that trip. We have also seen otters up there, including one that swam under our dock, grabbed a little fish, then sat across from where we were and loudly ate it. Still adorable.

I wish I had more pictures of 2014 me, but I dont have any access at work to post. Imagine a tall fairly muscular bearded white man with long hair and nipple rings who is on the verge of a 6 pack if not for all the binge drinking; singing to a large black pug

Honestly its amazing to me that people get in relationships that work at all.

It requires two people who are in the right place emotionally (open to relationship), in the same place geographically (for the most part) to actually meet, and in both those places at the same time chronologically. Like my wife never would have dated me if we didnt meet the way we did as she wasnt into "stoner bros" which i definitely was when we met, but since we lived together and she saw how I treated my dog and I was terminally allergic to shirts at the time she was able to build that initial attraction that would have been impossible via a dating app or if we met at bar or something.

Not even to mention the need for both parties to be willing to grow together, be flexible and skillful in managing and building a relationship.

All happy romantic relationships, including my own, blow my mind because holy poo poo do the dominoes need to line up right emotionally, geographically, and chronologically to have a real chance of finding someone and building something that lasts.

Not impossible though!

this is the hard one. sometimes digging deep to just be patient at times is a key skill. you'll fail at it from time to time and it's something you have to be mindful of -- when to let something go or how to discuss it.

Yeah I was in a relationship and realized she wasn't into it like I was which was frustrating. I took a couple months off to just focus on myself and then I had my gallbladder removed so that put me on the shelf for 2 months. So I am about to dip my toe back in the dating apps again after taking some new photos.

I've requested an edit from an empowered person, hopefully someone shows up soon. I don't think he put his full name on the forums, and the forums are google indexed, exposed to the public, etc.
