Imagine my shock as a neurodivergent teen when I first realized that using large vocabulary and eloquent speech doesn't make you less likely to be misinterpreted, rather it adds an entirely new layer of misinterpretation I had never even realized existed in the form of people thinking you're being snobbish or condescending when you're just trying to be specific
Even beyond dating, I believe any type of short or long relationship is sustained by curiosity, from the mundane 'why do you like this hobby' to the major 'how are you handling grief over xyz'. And, mutual curiosity is the spice of great conversations.
The people who make it an advantage have less access to go to games than ever before. Deep NBA Playoffs/NBA Finals have become Super Bowl’d. Soulless corporate gatherings rather than a sanctuary for fans.
KAT being the worst possible Wemby matchup makes you appreciate just how rare his skill set is. One of the best shooting bigs ever, but also a great rebounder, skilled driver, very good stationary passer, and has enough weight on him not to get pushed around. 1 of 1 talent.
You know until like 20 years ago folks only had their small town of classmates & coworkers to look at 😭 you couldn’t compare them to your explore tab on IG. They are attractive because you are attracted to them. They just aren’t ig models
My all-time favorite gold digging story.
Guy has about $12m in total net worth. But one of those try hard guys.
Meets an incredible woman he is head over heels in love with. But he can’t get over that she might be with him for his money. Reddit brained in this way.
He agonizes over this for months and months. Their entire relationship. Every-time it comes up he asks everyone if they think she’s a gold digger.
But she is awesome. They decide to get married.
He presents her with a well-crafted (overly crafted) pre-nuptial agreement. It’s rock solid for their situation.
They both sign.
Her response on signing: “oh thank God, my dad is going to be thrilled with this, I have a $100m trust fund and he’s been on my ass about getting a prenup with you since our relationship began. But I was worried you would leave if I brought it up.”
😂
Gold digger discussions once a year are always hilarious
Guys with no gold always the most worried
They think you get rich and suddenly your net worth is tatted on your head
You could just live normal, then reveal what you like later. If you roll into clubs with a Ferrari...
Human approval is unstable. Someone may praise you today and criticize you tomorrow, so it's wiser to anchor your life in deeper principles than in other people's opinions.
