I’ve been texting this guy back and forth for a few weeks now. I enjoy texting him but the conversation moves so slowly. I will respond back to him within a few hours and he takes a day and sometimes two to respond back. This week I responded with a bland response because to me it seemed like maybe with the slow responses it means that he’s not interested in me. But, he responded to me with a question. Why does he want to keep the convo going if he takes SO long to respond?

Why is online dating so blah?

SF! Anybody wanna meet?

Is it irrational for me to get an “ick” for this?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?

Gift giving help: every year around this time my husband brings up his Jan bday and basically demands I spend a lot of $ on him. I find this stressful. I don’t do big lavish gifts but each year I feel pressure to or he won’t be happy. When I say this he immediately launches into “haven’t I done this for you, bought that for you”. “If you loved me you would”. His entitlement and manipulation make me feel super resentful and removes the fun of celebrating him. FWIW we earn the same. What to do?

Gonna be a busy weekend and upcoming week ☺️

Rant: my boyfriend is so annoying with this diet! I GET IT. You want to eat healthy! But when you have your friends at our place every other weekend they order pizza and you devour most of 2 boxes! But when I want pizza or wings or burgers I have to hear a whole spiel. “Can we pick something healthier?” “You can order ___ but can I choose something else on the menu?” “I don’t knowwww” like MY GOD. Then if I order something for me he wants half or bites! Sick of it!!!

When I woke up on the floor, my coworker told me I was out for 3 mins. The manager was belittling the situation and threatening my position

I’ve been hooking up with relatively hot, wealthy older men and indulging in “party favor” and alcohol induced nights pretty frequently since around when quarantine began.
