I generally find them devoid and lacking in aesthetics. Some are cool, but for the most part, the gameplay is always mindnumbingly boring.

I know I'm making a massive generalizing, but it's hard for me to get into space themed games because I just usually don't enjoy them.

Take her out to dinner at a nice restaurant that won't require a reservation, then we go for a couple drinks at the most regal bar I can think of. We also get dessert. After this, we go on a nice drive and talk about our feelings. I put on her favorite artist. Then I drive to the place we met / some other place that's special to us. While there, I put on our favorite song and we dance to it under the moon light. Then we go home and make sweet passionate love like the night we met.

For Supporting Texas Lawsuit

https://tinyurl.com/y4452cfe

• Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) on Friday urged House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to refuse to seat any of the 126 Republican House members who signed an amicus brief supporting a lawsuit aimed at overturning the results of the presidential election.

• Pascrell, who has been among the most vocal proponents in Congress of investigations into President Trump, called on Pelosi in a letter to exclude any members who signed the brief, claiming they want to tear the United States government apart.

• Pascrell cites Section 3 of the 14th amendment which states that anyone who engaged in insurrection or rebellion cannot serve in federal office claiming the lawsuit seeks to obliterate public confidence in our democratic system and that those who signed it committed unbecoming acts that reflect poorly on our chamber.

• The lawsuit the Republicans are supporting, brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and backed by 17 Republican attorneys general, asks the Supreme Court to invalidate electors in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan based on fraud claims already rejected by lowerthe courts numerous times.

• The Republicans who signed the brief include House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise and incoming House GOP Conference Vice Chair Mike Johnson, who is spearheading the effort.

• Pelosi herself has signaled firm opposition to the Trump-backed effort, calling it an act of flailing GOP desperation, which violates the principles enshrined in our American Democracy in a letter to Democratic colleagues.

• "Republicans are subverting the Constitution by their reckless and fruitless assault on our democracy, Pelosi added in the letter, which was released after Pascrells, though she did not say whether she would heed his calls.

During fetal development the body of an xy male starts off way more female, then gets modified. (descending testes, etc)

So it's more like woman is default, and man is the modified. (Y chromosome is a modified X, not the other way around)

It kinda makes sense. Even primitive single cell life enlarges and splits off. (more similar to pregnancy)

Gender =/= sex. Chromosomes don't dictate gender.

Physical attraction for me honestly boils down to her carrying a bit of extra weight. I can't phrase it any more delicately than that. This also ties into her not being all that athletic and being super avoidant of physical activity. She can be pretty lazy at times. It really isn't as much her body as it is her whole attitude about it. Her comment about a motorized bicycle really filled me with disgust and I can't tolerate going along with that idea in any minor way. I just can't. This is definitely a big issue and it really dwarfs my other concerns although those still have some importance.

Her body and attitude definitely effect my attraction towards her, but part of it is we've been together for a couple years and our work schedules don't really leave a lot of great time for sex. I mean, I'm sure it can be improved upon if we make ourselves a bit more available and try some new things out to make it a little fresh.

So yeah I need to be upfront with her about this more, but I've made comments about it and it didn't go great. I'm sure I can find a way to communicate this better, but I just don't know how receptive she will be. I'm just a highly competitive and physically active person so it's really difficult for me to be understanding of what her perspective is on this.

When I say she makes me laugh, my friends don't make me laugh like that. No one has ever come close to making me laugh like she does. It really is a special trait that holds a lot of value for me.

Yeah the political stuff and the issue with her dad are more minor. Yeah she is resistant to both, but agreeable enough. I can especially understand her being hesitant to take my side over her dad's, because well it is her dad.

I wish I could get more of a family aspect from her, but it's fine. She's really close to her two gay uncle's and her grandma and they've all been really nice to me and I like them back. She just doesn't prioritize her dad nearly as heavily as them in terms of what she considers family.

I'm really not gonna pretend to be an expert here. The biggest thing I've learned from this is how little I understand all the facets of a relationship. We are both in by far our longest relationship with each other right now so neither one of us comes with a ton of experience.

I'm 31 and she is 28.

Had to delete some of your response to fit under the character limit.

So all things considered, you've mentioned that her physical appearance and lack of athletic ability are the two biggest factors. Generally you can't force people to change, especially if they don't want to, so I wouldn't expect her to suddenly become athletic. If this is a deal breaker for you, then I think you may have your answer.

When you started dating her, did you know she wasn't athletic? When did this become an issue? I could see why it would be hard to communicate this with her for multiple reasons: A) she's taken it poorly in the past, and B) It's a conversation that could potentially lead to you breaking up.

I imagine she has some idea that her lack of interest in athleticism is a problem that's affecting you and the relationship? Has she mentioned how she plans to address this before, or is she simply ignoring this issue altogether?

Does her ability to make you laugh outweigh the fact that she isn't athletic?

A lot of it is physical. I'm very attracted to athletic women. Especially women with muscle. I just don't feel as attracted to my girlfriend these days. I just don't want to have sex with her that bad. Most of the time I'd prefer to jerk off to porn of women I find much more attractive than her. She brings up the lack of sex and how she'd like more and I just kind of shrug it off. Sex can feel like a chore at times. It was great at first, but that has been steadily declining.

Physical attraction is a big part of a relationship. If you're losing attraction to her and she's noticing the lack of sex and it's an issue, that's going to lead to problems. You should be honest with her and communicate how you're feeling. Maybe there's something you can workout together to make the sex better - just don't be accusatory and bare in mind her feelings. If you don't feel like you can be open and honest within the relationship, that's an even bigger problem.

TommyG663513 posted...

Being athletic is super important to me. I've always been an incredibly physically active person and she very much isn't. We went on a walk and I saw a couple biking together and I mentioned to her that I think that looks like it'd be fun to do together and she jokes that it'd only be fun if her bike was motorized and she could just sit there and do nothing. I was instantly filled with nothing else, but absolute disgust. That is an extremely offensive thing to say to me lol. I've ran half marathons and the girl I'm dating can't run a mile. I doubt she can even run half a mile honestly.

I went to couples counselling and one of the things they taught us is the use of language when describing significant others. If the language is mild like "they're annoying" or "I feel uneasy about..." then the problem isn't that bad. But if the use of language is more like how you used it, "instantly filled with absolute disgust" then that indicates a serious, persistent problem, which I can also tell from reading your post. It sounds like that's a really polarizing topic for you. But also, maybe there's a creative solution. Maybe her bike can in fact be motorized. They do have electric bikes. Would that work for you? Maybe that would be a good compromise because she's still being a little athletic, but she doesn't have to exert that much energy? I also wonder why she's not wanting to exert energy. How is her diet? Does she have energy for other things? Is she depressed? Does she work a lot and just doesn't have time to be athletic?

TommyG663513 posted...

There have also been some issues with her family. Her dad was a huge dick to me and she was super forgiving of his behavior and it took a lot to convince her that yeah he was super rude. She keeps bringing up how much she wants us to get along and I'm like nope. Her dad is also a covid denier lite and general Republican. Honestly, the guy came off like a huge redneck to me. She comes from a small town a couple of hours outside of the city and I grew up in the suburbs so culturally there is a difference.

Her dad being a huge dick to you is a problem, but her not having your back is a bigger problem. It's good that she eventually came around and saw it your way though. It sounds like you and her dad are never going to get along, which will be a problem for her. How important is it for you to get along with him? I never got along with my ex's family and that was a huge problem for me because I really wanted a family to belong to that wasn't my own and knowing I couldn't find that within my ex's family was one of the reasons I knew the relationship was over.

TommyG663513 posted...

Honestly, it's very weird for me to be more left leaning than my girlfriend. She doesn't follow politics as much as me or at all really and kind of just accepts the majority of what I tell her. I can tell her political views have been moving more left as she has known me. I mean, she was never a right leaning person, but she was way more moderate.

It sounds like your girlfriend is fairly apathetic politically and is either adopting your views because she knows it's important to you and she wants to be close to you, or it could be that you have convinced her of these views and now they are her views as well. How important is it for you to be with someone who is politically active and aware?

TommyG663513 posted...

I don't want to sound too negative here. She really makes me laugh a lot. We have a great rapport as far as joking around goes. We both love the same types of food and have similar taste in movies. I absolutely love her dog and he's become my dog too. I feel like I have a little family here.

You're not sounding negative at all to me. You sound like someone who is being realistic about what they want out of a relationship and trying to figure out if all of your needs are being met. Regarding her making you laugh and having a great rapport, and liking the same foods and movies - my friends make me laugh and like the same movies as me, but I'm not in a relationship with them just because they make me laugh and like the same movies. When I broke up with my ex, I rationalized it with myself by saying that even though I loved her and we had a great time together sometimes, I loved my friends too and had a great time with them but I'm not in a relationship with all of my friends. It's also worth noting that one of the reasons I didn't break up with my ex sooner was that we had 2 cats together, but that's a bad reason to stay together (for the pets). It's like how unhappy couples stay together for the kids. Only you can decide if this is enough of a reason to stay with someone and if the pros outweigh the cons.

TommyG663513 posted...

It's just that my expectations have always been so low and my family kind of sucks so I've had such low expectations for any sort of relationship. I'm getting to the point of realized Ng that perhaps I should be expecting or hoping for more.

If you feel like you're settling, that's probably not the best sign in terms of whether or not you should stay in a relationship. How old are you? And what do your family / friends think about this girl? The people who know you best would have valuable input into whether or not she's the right girl for you.

Yeah I find myself daydreaming about other girls a lot. My girlfriend is a lot of great things, but it really feels like something is missing. The biggest deal for me is that my girlfriend is super unathletic and even getting her to go onna 4-5 mile hike was difficult and she complained a lot and really soured the experience. Her enjoying some hiking with me was honestly a very low expectation and clearly not even that worked out. We are super incompatible on that front. I played sports all of my life and I still do and she only ever player softball in high school and quit after sophomore year.

The difficult part is that no one else has ever made me laugh like she does and that is the one trait I put above everything.

When you daydream about other girls, what are the aspects of the other girls that you like that your girlfriend doesn't meet? How specifically are they different? Physically, Emotionally, everything?

Is your girlfriend being unathletic the only reason you're feeling disconnected? How important is it that you do athletic activities with her? Maybe you can have friends that you do athletic things with? Not all relationships require both people to have all of the same hobbies. However, if it's so important that you two do athletic things together, then it may be a deal breaker for you and only get worse in time.

Question for anyone,

What made you realize that you wouldn't be happy marrying this person? Can you describe the sadness of the breakup? What type of relief did you feel over the break up?

I've been with my girlfriend about two years now and I'm trying to figure out what to do here. I like her a lot, but idk if I like her enough to spend the rest of my life with her.

If you're unsure if you want to marry her or not, you can always wait and see. You might think 2 years is enough time to tell, but sometimes it's not and that's ok. For me, a lot changed from 2 years to 4, and it's the same for a lot of people. Just wait it out and don't do anything you aren't 100% sure about.

For me, a big indicator was that I knew there were certain elements missing from the relationship that I needed and I kept finding myself day dreaming about who my perfect match would be, and it wasn't the person I was with. I also would find myself talking to girls who I liked more than my fiance.

It's true what they say about finding out who your true friends are when you are down and out. I was forced to move out and relocate after the break-up and spent the first part of last year homeless and jobless. It took it's toll on me mentally and emotionally. If I didn't have good friends to help me put the pieces of my life back together, it would likely still be in shambles.

I'm glad it all worked out okay for you! That sounds really tough. Sorry you had to go through that

Having to explain to family and mutual friends that things went sour, without really wanting to get into why was the worst.

This part sucks. Each of my family and friends wanted a run down on how the relationship ended. Instead of telling the same story each time, I started using these opportunities as free therapy to talk about our issues.

~~Every day I'm husseling and busseling~~

I did.

I was with my ex for a total of 4 years. After 3, we got engaged. 1 year later, I broke off the engagement / broke up with her because I couldn't see myself being happy with her for the rest of my life. This was right before we were supposed to move out of state together (she ended up still moving). We split up our belongings (TVs, Computer, PS4, Furniture, money, etc). She got the 2 cats. Then, we never talked again. Then I spent the next 1-2 years getting over the relationship. Easily the hardest decision I ever had to make and one of the most painful periods of my life.

The real lesson learned was not to move in with someone after only dating for 7 months when you're both in your early 20s, because we both later acknowledged we would've ended the relationship in the first year if we weren't living together.

So I'm working in a hotel, right, it's past closing time for the gift shop, when the president of Disney+ comes in. I didn't know it was him at the time.

He asks if I can let him into the gift shop and I let him know it's already closed, but he needs a razor for a meeting in the morning. I offer him a free one, but he goes, "Those ones are s***". I tell him we can only let people into the gift shop if they need medications that they sell there.

That's when he goes, "I'm the President of Disney+" and I go, "Yes, sir, absolutely. Give me one moment while I get that open for you"

Then I call security who opens the door for him, and he got his razor. We chatted for a brief moment and he was super nice. I also noticed that his shoes looked like they cost $3000.

Dude 70 million voters is not "1%".

And these people don't turn on the actual 1% just because they lost an election.

In my opinion, and you can disagree, the public enemy #1 is corporations and billionaires who achieve their own self interest at the expense of everyone else. This is pretty well established and not controversial. We need to, as a country, unite against them.

~~Every day I'm husseling and busseling~~

If Biden wins, it's a great victory for Biden supporters. That's without a doubt.

We should be civil though, because taunting and being petty will alienate the "other side" even more, and make them angry at us.

We don't need them to be angry at us. Let them be angry, there's a lot to be angry about, but let them be angry at the 1%.

How do we channel that? I have no idea.

Biden will probably take PA.

He's less than 200,000 votes behind trump with 12% of the count remaining.
But of that 12%, it seems like 78% are Biden votes, meaning that would push him WELL over what he would need to win PA.
