    Lots of walls of text in the comments. I’m sure the advice is good, I just don’t have the focus to read that much lol. I’ll keep it short

    Two things:

    Take a positive inventory. This can be hard, so maybe make a list, and write down one positive each day, then review the list daily.

    Don’t compare your insides to other people’s outsides. You will never gain contentment comparing yourself to others

  • My wife and I are 3 years apart. One of the things she liked when we were dating was that we had the same cultural references from childhood. She had dated men 10 years her senior and didn’t like it for that reason.

    At 26 I was hanging out with friends and this one girl was a cutie (who was clearly in her mid-twenties) that I was casually flirting with. Then she said “I gotta go, my dad’s picking me up” and I’m like “Wait you don’t drive?” and she’s like “Dad doesn’t want me to drive till I’m 18” and. I. Was. Mortified. I felt like a complete pedophile. God damned Latinas.

    The point is, dating outside (x/2)+7 is unacceptable, but even over 40 a 10 year age gap is weird

    I am Japan wrong lol, pretty much everyone else on that map was affected by colonialism. I mean, Japan was affected too, but Japan’s response to colonialism was “that’s a good idea, we’ll do it even harder” so I don’t think they count as another arm of Britannia.

    Oh for sure for sure. Definitely reverse when traveling in countries that get it wrong want to remain a UK colony.

    Sadly since COVID I’ve not been able to do much international traveling. But I do still get routed through Chicago O’Hare, which adds insult to injury

    (Also I’m just joking about that colonies jab. The only “correct” way is the way the community at large has decided in a particular area.)
