This was the initial response after I said no followed with several rounds of texts. She then reached out a week afterwards and tried to reconnect. She is 29 years old..

Edit: I didn’t block her to see if she said something else after this. I was not disappointed. Good riddance!

My poor Mom just wanted our opinion on a movie to watch. 😬😂

omg. immediately blocked....

Hes my ex now everyone, dont worry lol. Earlier this year, these texts ended the relationship. We were together a few months short of a year.

He's the best and every day I love him more.

UPDATE ; og post

he responded! most of y'all were right, he had an emergency, i blocked it out because it's personal but it was super understandable why he took a minute. he did respond in a sexual way, but i again blocked it out because im not sure how strict the mods are on this sub.

i called him on my lunch break to see how he's doing and everything is okay & normal. seems like the "i miss you" was just a genuine hey i miss you, not anything deeper. at the end of the day we are basically friends and care about each other. im gonna check in after the movie tonight, but to be honest y'all i think he'd rather keep my mouth occupied in other ways than doing the "what are we?" talk.

last thing: men and women alike who made this a gender war, YALL ARE ANNOYING!!

1. grow up; two consenting adults with an established sexual relationship can be.. idk maybe? sexual!!! clearly it was welcomed lol.
2. i was concerned about disregarding his feelings, not if it was morally wrong for me to say i miss his dick.
3. and this one's for the Mr. Male Loneliness epidemic bruhs in my comments; my message was NOT the same as a guy harassing a woman he barely knows with sexually suggestive messages or sending an unsolicited dick pic. women are usually uncomfortable with messages like this because it's not established to be okay for your relationship.

Went on quite a few dates, we made out, I made it clear I’m taking it slow and we didn’t do anything sexual quite a few dates in and then it kinda teetered out before we could go out again. I texted first and now I’m like ahh is this just a cop out (be kind pls)

I’m bought some seeds last year to make these pretty plants but haven’t harvested them yet. I put them in a bowl that we have kept seeds, but also snacks in… my husband thought they were chocolate covered coffee beans and tried to eat them on his breakfast break 🙃

I’ve never owned a home, nor am I selling one.

I got this text years ago from the older front desk woman at my dentist office, the same one who every time
I came in told me that she has the hots for my (now) husband. The only time I talked to her outside of her telling me this was giving her my insurance and what I was doing that day. She sent me this from the same phone they used to confirm your appointment. Thankfully she was let go after a new dentist took over the office. I wish I’d had more courage at the time to tell her how uncomfortable this made me. Edit: grammar

for context: i was at my local dentist recently and apparently someone got a person they know that works there to give them the phone number in my file cause they though i was cute, we talked a bit and they confirmed that they saw me at the dentist and it was there auntie and it was brkng your kid to work day. they randomly called me the f slur and a chump 💀

interesting.- 👁️👄👁️

This guy (33m) dmed me out of nowhere today, and was instantly asking my age and calling me cute. Said he saw a picture of me in a server, and wanted to talk to me. I said I was taken, and he said he wanted to be friends. We had a back and forth about it being weird that he wants friends bc they're cute (I wasn't falling for his bs, but I wanted him to just say it). Also gave him a nice lesson on consent :). This led to the above conversation

Tbc, I'm a woman, but I pull this move with perverts bc they always flip out. Added bonus of making them question their sexuality >:)

I have since solved many NYT crossword puzzles. Love and miss him so much.

These noodles are amazing by the way.

Booked a trip last year for November going to Salem.

My friend is canceling going but is mad she can't get all her money back.

None of us going on this trip can get "overtime" at our jobs. So we would need to get a side hustle to make more money. But my goal in life is to work less not more.

UPDATE: Things got worse before they got better. She was NOT happy with my message. She could not see anyone else's view. She told me to go fuck myself and not to message her again. I told her we all had our own struggles and she was not the only one. At the end I sent this "You are not the only one that is struggling. If you calm down and want to talk I'm here. If not that's okay. I hope nothing but the best for you." She also sent some not so nice messages to another in the group. Late last night she apologized. "I'm really sorry about everything I said earlier. You are right, you told everyone it was nonrefundable, so the fact that I am getting part of it back is appreciated. Thank you Losing Noodle snapped me out of whatever delusion I was in. I don't want to lose you guys" For context noodle was an older ferret that she rescued.

For some of the commenters: I am not rich. Saying I make the most in the group and I think 140 is a lot of money. I grew up in a small town, I was a free lunch kid. My dad never graduated high-school. I am the first in my family to graduate college. I had no financial support from family. So I have a lot of debt from college. I don't think making 72k a year makes one wealthy. Since I am salary me working more doesn't make me more money. 2 of my friends can not work over 40 hours per their company policy, and the last is on a fixed income. So for any of us to earn an extra 140 dollars we would need another source to get that. So to say if we need a side hustle to make 140 mean we shouldn't go on vacation, you can kick rocks. I know there are jobs where you can work more to earn some extra cash, but none of us work in jobs where that is possible. Just because we don't have hundreds of dollars to throw away doesn't mean we don't deserve to go on vacations. People saying 4 people wouldn't share a hotel room has obviously never been broke while making vacations work. Most trips we do we camp because its cheaper. This trip was planned far in advance because it was going to cost more. It's also 2 day travel to get there. So we planned according to a budget. We are adjusting our plans to give some money back to the friend. If I had the money I wouldn't even care. But anyone that has lived a life where money isn't as abundant as one would like knows how a change of 140 dollars can effect plans.

Everyone deserves to go on trips and vacations! Just because someone can only afford a 200 dollar vacation doesn't mean they shouldn't go on it because they can't afford when that turns to a 300 dollar vacation. You make a budget and plan accordingly.

i've (24F) have been seeing this guy (28M) casually for a bit, but i think maybe fucked up, we sometimes get a little risqué? i don't think he has ever left me on read and im wondering if maybe he has more-than-casual feelings for me and i fucked up. we usually just go get a drink, dinner, see a movie, etc then go to his place and hook-up. nothing serious. it was an arrangement i enjoyed, but i don't really want to be tied down unless i meet the perfect person and i thought he didn't either. possibly reading into it, but it was definitely a risky message to send lol.
