Are you conflating romantic stuff with physical stuff here? You can feel romantically attracted to someone without feeling sexually attracted to them.
That being said, she could also just not be comfortable with physical touch because of her trauma (as she told you). That is absolutely a common way for trauma to present itself.

Bro imagine if they caught the person (they won’t), and then that person actually turned out to be called Mario

Yeah, murder is horrific. I don’t enjoy the fact that he was murdered; I feel joy at the fact that he can no longer spread his toxic filth anymore.

They don’t really need a reason do they? Nor do they need to be right or left aligned, tbh. Mental illness makes you do fucked up shit like shoot a POS in front of 3000 people.
- Comment on How popular/important do you have to be for your death by homicide to be labeled as an "assassination"? What if the homicide is for a private matter that's separate from their importance? 4 days ago:
Maybe when it’s a specific group of people it can be called genocide instead
Unless you’re every western government, then it’s just “a conflict”.

This is genuinely the first time in a long time that the news has brought me genuine joy. I don’t give a fuck, but I am angry at him and people like him for being so shitty that it makes me feel joy at their deaths. This is on you bitch.
- Comment on The USA prided itself on a nation of immigrant, heck even the Statue of Liberty says it. When did immigrants (US citizens from the old world) become anti immigrant and why? 1 week ago:
So like burning your bridges in English? Although I guess that’s more for people. Maybe more like pulling up the ladder behind you.

I don’t remember why, but I tagged you as “brilliant mf”. Good post. Please take them all.
- Comment on Who are the "middle class" supposed to support in the class stuggle? 1 week ago:
I think an easier interpretation than the “owners vs workers” in this day and age is, are they billionaires. If you’re not a billionaire or close to it, you should be on the side of the working class.
The billionaires that make up only 1% of the population ans own nearly half the wealth of the entire world are the problem.

It’s 2025, people. If you don’t have a bidet, you’re not doing it right.
Hell I even bought lil squirt guns for my ass so I can have a “portable” bidet.
- Comment on What age gap is too big of an age gap if someone's in their early 30's? 2 weeks ago:
My sister’s ex is my mom’s age (25 year age gap). They dated when she was in her late 20s. Honestly they had a great relationship and, while he was a bit “immature” for his age (financially), he was a really awesome dude and they had lots in common. The main reason it didn’t work out was because she wanted kids, and having kids with a man in his early 50s, who aleady had like a 20 year old kid, is difficult.
I think that’s what often causes issues in big age gap relationships, they’re often at different points of family/career development.
The flip side of this is that I met my uncle’s (61) girlfriend, who is, I believe, 25 or 26 and I did get the ick because she’s younger than two of his older children and has braces that make her look a lot younger than that. Most people thought she was a friend of his youngest kids (who are 19). She’s nice though I guess. And my uncle needs therapy, but that’s not necessarily related to this.

Luckily you don’t need to have a kid to get yourself an awesome batman suit.

I don’t need more reasons to not want children, I’m already decided, but this thread is sure reaffirming.

I’m genuinely sorry for the people who suffer from that but good god that is funny.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 3 weeks ago:
Its gotten worse because women are no longer forced to stay in or get into shitty, unfulfilling marriages. Men before had guaranteed companionship in the sense that it was societally and financially expected for a woman to stay in a relationship and provide emotional (and physical) companionship. With women becoming more independent, they’re able to leave abusive situations or to avoid getting into them in the first place.
Therefore, if men are not socialized to maintain friendships and no one is being forced to emotionally support them anymore, then they are lonely.

I’m gonna tag you as “unwilling tagee”
Also if it helps, I don’t only tag rude or racist people, I also tag people that say something I enjoy or makes me laugh so one day when I see them again I can give them a compliment.
- Comment on Is it realistic to hope that lemmy grows to the size of the bigger social media platforms? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve definitely seen more trolls and significantly more racist/transphobic people even in just the last few months which is worrying. Maybe it’s like Baader Meinhof effect cause I started tagging them, but it’s certainly frustrating because this site used to feel a lot more friendly.

I love stardew so I disagree with you, but I know the game is not for everyone and definitely know people that would agree with you so I feel the downvoting is a bit unfair for you.
But also SV rocks and you should give it another chance.

- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 3 weeks ago:
Unpopular opinion, but maybe servers (and most everyone) deserves more than minimum wage. And in not saying the consumer should be paying it, they should be paid their money’s worth by their employer.
Michigan min wage is what like $10? Who the hell can survive on that?

Marginally related but today was having a meeting with someone who is notorious for not being plugged in. I wish I had a recording of it because she literally went “oh sh-” mid sentence and then was booted as her computer shut down. Impeccable timing.
