I love when articles tell me how to feel, takes all the thinking out of the equation. Now I know I should be shaking in my boots. Phew.

We’re all gross, and we’re all ugly, and we all deserve love. You are included in that equation.

I’m sorry for your loss.

Sex is not the only part of a relationship, and being sexually attracted does not mean you should ever feel coerced into it.

Sex is embarrassing, gross, and silly. With the right person that’s okay and worth doing, with the wrong person it’s not. Your feelings of embarrassment are common and you’re not broken or anything.

For me relationships are about comfort and belonging more than physical satisfaction, maybe that’s the thing you’re looking for?

They say there’s somebody for everyone, no matter if you’re pretty or ugly, someone will find you beautiful and love you, try not to let your doubts keep that kind of person away if that’s something you’re hoping for.

On the other hand, relationships are just one flavor in the medley of flavors life has to offer, society may say you have no worth without an SO but that’s patently false.

Can’t think of one single thing that could convince me, since I’m monogamous that’s one of the few true dealbreakers.

A person has to draw the line somewhere.

More broadly, I think it’s appropriate to respond to social overreaching with rudeness.

In situations like these, I tend to just not respond but simply look at them. Awkward for everyone, but not aggressive on my part. Leave the ball in their court, if it’s a simple “could you take a photo” then whatever, but if it’s a less acceptable “could you buy me some smokes” then you’ve not mentally committed.

The incessant beeping and glitching out is like a secret prize

Ugh imagine being a high school kid about to graduate and some team rocket goons squad up and literally imprison you. The kid has been going to school since he was 6 in the US, this is literally terrorism. Where are you going to send this literal american?

If the marriage was traditional and the spouse was coerced by either pregnancy or culture to give up aspirations or education, I think alimony is absolutely essential. That person gave up their dreams for a relationship and alimony could help them recover their skills.

If the marriage was modern and both spouses were equally educated and have professions? Alimony is stupid and archaic.

For spousal support I assume you mean while married, I think it’s a weird power dynamic to give a significant other money directly.

Speed is literally not even a concern, the only thing I want more of is people. Make it easier to sign up or something
