Was just having a conversation recently on whether things have always been this close to a complete existential crisis for humans or is the current global situation unique. Most people felt like things have always been bad but I still feel like, with everything going on in terms of global conflicts and climate change, things are uniquely, complexly and extremely bad on a global scale compared to the past.
Ugh. I totally get it. And I feel like my older family felt the same way about the Cold War. Like can you imagine sitting through Bay of Pigs listening for potential incoming annihilation?
Kinda had an affair with a woman who married at 24 and regretted not ‘playing the field’. She ended up getting pregnant with her husband shortly after and I really hope they make it last, but I have a horrible feeling it was a doomed attempt to fix their relationship with a child.
I am guessing this is mostly informed by your own experience, personally I feel the same, but I was a fucking moron at 24, certainly not ready for something like marriage or kids, hell I am 31 and I still don’t feel that way.
Others might feel otherwise or grow up faster, to better parents and that’s okay, no need to label people who do things different than you as weird imo.
Ben Shapiro is a conservative talking head who uses primarily strawmen and slippery slope logical fallises to whip up ignorance into anger. This picture looks like Ben Shapiro ate several other Ben Shapiros to become a meat Voltron of bad right wing thought.
If I was that waiter, and it was an honest attempt at being polite by your mom, I’d have been happy with that friendly customer. Kind people, you are my tribe and I love you all dearly!
I met my wife at 37 and married at 39. Best decision I ever didn’t intentionally make :)
But looking back, I had a TON of growing up to do before I was ready to seriously commit to marriage the way I personally view it. Pair bonding for life. Sure, people, things and desired change, but I’ve watched far too many god awful divorces to ever want to go through that, so I wanted to be really sure and I totally was. It’s been an awesome 16 years.
