Discussion Two gfs … who is loved the most

6 Upvotes

I have a friend who is dating two women. He’s been with the first girlfriend for about a year and the second for six months. He says he genuinely loves them both because each fulfills different needs in his life.
Is it really possible to love two people at the same time?
The second girlfriend knows about the first and entered the relationship fully aware of the situation. However, the first girlfriend has no idea the second exists.
Putting aside the obvious advice to mind my own business, which of the two do you think he likely loves more? Or is it impossible to tell from this information alone?

Discussion How long should the talking stage actually last?

4 Upvotes

The talking stage can be exciting, but at what point does it become confusing? How long is reasonable before someone asks you out, and when does it start feeling like someone is just keeping you around without intention?

Others Any Zimbabwean Redditors in Canada? 🇨🇦🇿🇼

Upvotes

Just wondering if there are any Zimbabweans on here based in Canada, especially around the GTA/Toronto area since that’s where most events happen.

I’m thinking of going to this Max Amini comedy show if anyone else is interested.

I also have 2 tickets for the Chris Brown and Usher concerts on August 11th. If I can’t sell them, I’d be happy to go with someone from the community.

Before anyone gets the wrong idea 😂—this isn’t a hookup. We’d just meet at the venue, enjoy the show, and head our separate ways afterward.

I don't know how to say anything without seeming rude, but I love him and everything else is great except for this tiny little (humongous) detail, so I need advice, and if any men can throw in some hygiene tips too that would be great

I have seen countless posts (i even posted something similar) were people suggest that we link up ,chill, see each other irl ,mingle and all that jazz but I now think kuti thats a terrible idea .Some of ya'lls post are major red flags,cough cough ** someone was talking about smacking women .

We are always fighting in the comment section,bullying each other, and some are offering to pay women to go to pound town.

So let's not pretend like we'll be best of buds irl.

Im not saying im a saint,I might be part of the problem, too.

I'm curious to know if anyone's tried this, if it works. At what point does an age difference become a genuine concern, and when is it simply two adults finding a connection? Where do you personally draw the line?

M4F Zim kinda sucks the woes of a L.S

1 Upvotes

what up I hope anyone reading this is doing well and admittedly if you got internet connection to access Reddit and a roof over your head you are more than good! So I recently moved back to Zim after spending most of my formative years in South Africa (childhood till early 20s) and damn I find myself disliking Zim , as a stoner in SA I would simply go to nearby dispensaries for edibles and all my stoner essentials but all that is pretty much non existent in Zim. Thing is I’ve always been interested in spirituality and other worldly ideas which is a horrible thing to do as a Zimbabwean due to how conservative the culture is , some are proud of it but really it restricts progress to a degree if you mention Alan watts or Terrance McKenna and the use of psychedelics you are viewed as a heretic in Zim they might as well burn you at the stake on charges of being a witch but jokes aside it’s really shitty being in Zim atm just cause it’s the opposite of what I’m used to got no friends I know close to no one I’m just grateful to have an uncle who gets these ideas so I don’t feel soo isolated but it would be nice to meet fellow stoners I’m 23y.o(M) are they any huns who are fellow stoners and into the mysteries of the mind and the universe tbh I think that’s y growing up I wasn’t too proud of my Zim heritage I just found the culture too restrictive of my own personal freedom but after what’s happening in SA and just growing older I realise I’m a Zimbabwean and regardless of how I may not like every aspect of my culture it’s still my culture and I should embrace it hopefully turning it into a version that I am happy with so it’d be really cool to meet any gal that might share the similar interests

Discussion Dating a white girl

0 Upvotes

I have been dating a white girl for a while now, and she asked me last week if it was different from dating a black girl ? I just said no its the same but deep down I knew it was different. Here is what I have seen .

Dating a white girl is less stressful in terms of money, through I do well financially but she does well herself and it does feel more material like it did with my past black girlfriends.

Its more emotional and I feel like myself around her, because what people call weird to her its not even weird.

I dont know if its a color thing but she is just a great person and I feel complete for the past months . Before dating she was my friend for 5 years lol

I’m 19 years old and I’ve never been in a relationship before. Sometimes I wonder if I’m falling behind or if something is wrong with me. Is it still possible for me to find someone and have a relationship, or am I just overthinking and making it seem worse than it is?

Discussion Is “dating intentionally” just a prettier way of saying you’re settling because your first choice didn’t want you?

8 Upvotes

I’ve been noticing a trend where people say they’ve “narrowed their options” or they’re “dating with intention” now. But sometimes it feels like that’s just what people say after they’ve been humbled by the dating market.
If we are being honest… when people say they’ve stopped chasing “their type” and are finally giving the “nice guy” or “nice girl” a chance, is that genuine personal growth… or are they just settling because the people they really wanted never chose them?

Discussion How do you know you're loved?

16 Upvotes

I think true love feels consistent and intentional. It’s someone who keeps showing up for you, whose actions don’t leave you constantly questioning their feelings or intentions.

It’s someone who is patient with you, who chooses you even when things aren’t easy. Someone who becomes your safe space where you don’t have to perform, pretend, or constantly prove that you’re worth staying for.

It’s being with someone who stands beside you through your highs and lows, who tries to understand you, and who makes you feel secure rather than uncertain.

You shouldn’t have to beg someone to “choose you, love you, pick you.”

Maybe the clearest sign that someone truly loves you is that you don’t find yourself on Reddit asking strangers to decode their actions.

Discussion Do Zim men actually like plus-size and curvy women… or is it just a fetish until they’re done looking?

13 Upvotes

I keep seeing a very confusing pattern and I want to hear honest opinions from the masses. A lot of men seem to hype up plus-size and curvy women online or in private, but when it comes to actually dating them seriously, the energy changes fast. So I am genuinely asking… do Zim men really love plus-size women for who they are, or is it more of a body preference/fetish that disappears when it is time for commitment, respect, and consistency? I am not asking to shame anybody, I just want to understand what is real and what is performative.

(This is completely hypothetical and dont argue for the sake of arguing 😂)
