I don't sweat the small stuff anymore but boy does it annoy me more! :lol:

My mother used to have the windows open when it was -20C, I can only guess what they feel like.

They say with age comes wisdom but that's only because we play a good game of "when I was your age".

You can slow aging and prevent some of the effects for awhile but you can't change your fate. Much of what will happen as you age will be based on your genetics so look at your family to see what you are in for. You can and should fight against it but in the end you can't stop it.

I never understood why my parents always walked into a room, looked confused then walked out but now I get it!

Oh, memory issues are...what were we talking about?

Thanks, I'll have to make sure I put that on my rule card.

Can't read the GD phone in the morning without my reading glasses.

I didn't eat the donuts today! So I rewarded myself with cake...is that how this works here?

Good points there, I have a friend who lost 200lbs and a few guys wrote up saying they preferred her before pics. She was devastated by those comments, but it does show that there is not universal standards of beauty.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of potlucks, I like to either cook or bring something like wings, that are pretty pricey, and then people show up with chips. It's like the wedding guest that shows up looking for the open bar and brings a hand mixer. I mean sure, we need plates and napkins, but if you are going to cheap out at…

It's just one of many options, but if you have social anxiety to the point where it's keeping you from socializing even in low stress situations then it's not going to be easy to meet people but there are ways of coping. If someone finds maintaining friendships more trouble then they are worth then having an intimate…

A bit of a head scratcher but you certainly can if you try hard enough. Then again, I've seen cases where people have spent 5 figures a month on free to play games. It's pretty scary.

You might also want to try a singles social group then. They usually have mixers for singles that involve fun, low stress activities such as potlucks and volleyball. I know a few married couples that met through those networks.

Meetups are great, but most aren't really dating opportunities per se but then again, that's the way most people met in the past, find an activity you enjoy then meet potential partners while having fun. No pressure and you'll generally have a great time even if you don't find someone so it's never a waste of time.

Looking around today I almost wonder how we managed to procreate as a species for so long! :wink:

Loose skin from the weight loss, it sucks.

I know how that feels, I wish you the best of luck getting back to work as soon as possible.

Yeah, both of them violate the laws of physics! :lol:

I would say MFP is a really bad place to get advice on relationships, especially when there are signs of abuse and mental health issues at play. Best of luck to you but it seems to me that you both need something beyond just an internet forum full of random strangers.

You could say that.

You're using a DE razor? Cool what type?

My thoughts exactly, it's just another tool in the toolbox for meeting potential partners. Of course, there is a lot of little deceptions going on, just like any dating situation, but old pic and photo shopping is a real problem. Most studies have found that women tend to misrepresent on weight and men on height and…
