I might have mentioned it on the forum before... I have always had a fascination with it but never picked it up as a kid. I am tempted to get a cheap violin and try to teach myself when I have spare time. Everything I am reading is saying it is one of the hardest instruments to learn in...

Who here had covid and knows they did? What did it feel like? I was vaccinated a while back since I work in a clinic. I was around a few people in my family who had it during Christmas and didn't know. They both got pretty sick but nothing life-threatening. I was feeling unwell from Sunday till...

In terms of getting married, what age do you think is best for a man, and what age do you think is best for a woman? In terms of having children, what age do you think is best for a man and what age do you think is best for a woman? I have always had views on both subjects that have changed...

In terms of general lifestyles (excluding politics, religion, etc) what kind of area do you prefer when it comes to living - in the city, in the suburb, or in the country? I never cared for city life. I have lived in a city for half my life and moved away. I prefer it in the suburb. It is a mix...

I am only in the beginning stages of a relationship so I am not sure if I will get him something or not. I will say in past relationships that were fully established, I would spend $100. I think that is a nice number that can get a good gift or two. I don't like to go overboard. I feel like if...

I have to wonder this. I have been wondering this for the last 6 or 7 years now. I see how people talk and act. I see what things people use to segregate and discriminate. MLK Jr was very much in the mindset of judging people based on the content of character and not the color of their skin. I...

I am asking the guys in particular but ladies feel free to chime in on how much you think should be spent. I know the standard for a lot of people is 3 months' wages which seems ridiculous. Say you earning $3,500 a month, you really going to spend over 10k on a ring? That all seemed much to me...

There are so many groups these days it seems. It is like gender identities with those tumblr people or something. lol I know some of them mean well, some do good, but a lot of them are just using skin color to get what they want when they want, they don't care about actually helping anything or...

Those tornados made one hell of a mess! Was anyone in the thick of things? I live more northeast so we got some heavy winds and a temp drop but nothing too serious. I was without power yesterday evening on and off for about 5 hours which sucked but I managed. I was looking at some pictures and...

https://store.steampowered.com/app/504230/Celeste/ The game is only $5. Thinking about getting it. Haven't played a side-scrolling platform in a while. Reminds me of the old-school classics from the '90s. It is a bit old at this point since it came out in 2018 so that is likely why it is so...

I am not sure if I asked this here or not or if someone else had, my apologies if a thread already exists for this. I am curious if anyone here has any plans though or goals they are looking for reach for the new year. I am kind of in limbo right now. I have some options, some moves I can make...

I have a friend at work who does this every year. She signs up to work double shifts Christmas week just to say she can't go to the family dinner and avoid the holiday with her family. We never get too in deep about things but I did ask her the other day why she doesn't like Christmas. She said...

I been thinking about this for a while. It seems like a lot of people come and go from relationships like chewed bubblegum these days. I can't help but make the connection to social media. Like where people go to get validation and feel-good hormones released and soon as it wears out, they need...

I thought I would make a thread for this. I know some people have some mild/tame kinks and fetishes and some people out there act all kinds of nasty. I don't like to kink shame though and I try my best not to. So long as what you are doing is legal, with consent, and in the privacy of your own...

These three spots among a few others have declared forced lockdowns in "camps" for people who are not vaccinated, for people who have come into contact with those who tested positive (regardless of vax status), as well as people that are causing "issues". People are coming out in different...

As I mentioned in another thread, I will be going on a date this upcoming weekend (on the 10th). I got the day off from work and I plan to go shopping earlier in the day to find something nice to wear. It has been a while since I actually formally went on a date. I am looking forward to it! I am...

This is something I almost exclusively see with white couples but I have seen it with someone who I work with who is a mixed man. He and his partner both love animals and decided to adopt a dog together shortly after moving in together. Well, his partner has grown pretty attached to the dog so...

When it comes to respecting someone else's privacy, and they respecting yours - What do you think crosses the line? We live in the day and age of social media, dating apps, texting, and so on. It is very easy to get caught up in things you never intended or give your partner the wrong idea when...

I know not everyone celebrates it and they don't celebrate it the same way. Holidays like Christmas have always been a time for family for me so I have always enjoyed them. On Christmas Eve, we usually get some pizza and wings and sit around playing board games and stuff. We do gifts in the...

This is something I couldn't ever do, even when I was younger. I have a friend though who lives with her parents still and her boyfriend moved in with them. They give them money and buy groceries which is fine I guess, it ends up being cheaper than rent and they are trying to save. Anyway, her...
