In my opinion what you are describing is way too fast. If someone did that when dating me, I would run.
But I’m not part of your situation, so my opinion doesn’t matter. What matters is that it works for the two of you. You are fine with it, so that’s covered. So my only advice would be maybe check with him if he is comfortable with it. Or be prepared to deal with the consequences if he isn’t.
I think it’s Sinterklaas and it was English-speaking Americans who changed it into Santa Claus. Probably misunderstanding the origin.
It’s not necessarily as simple as “just observe his behavior”. Sure, if this is someone who dates young women routinely and on purpose, the guy might show obvious red flags. But even if his motives are “innocent”, the dynamics with even much smaller age gaps are usually very unhealthy and unequal, at least in my experience and especially when one partner is not at least in their mid-twenties. Often it’s something they only realise much later.
Definitiv. Für mich ist es weniger Freude und viel mehr Erleichterung, wenn die Grünen gewinnen. Die Alternative ist in BaWü ja leider die CDU. Und dieses Mal Hagel (brrrrrr). Dann doch lieber die Kiwi-Grünen mit den schwarzen Kernen.
I live alone, so have a group chat with several friends and family members with the sole purpose of me sharing my location whenever I’m going home from somewhere alone at night and telling them when I arrived safely.
There are of course many bigger reasons, especially if you look worldwide. But sometimes it’s worth looking at all the small adjustments we have to do in our daily lives. Sometimes I just want to walk somewhere at night without listening for every car approaching from behind to check if it slows down when nearing me.
Guys refusing to take a simple No for an answer always makes me think of Elizabeth’s refusal of Mr Collins in Pride & Prejudice and how little some things have changed in the last 200 years.
Do not consider me now as an elegant female, intending to plague you, but as a rational creature, speaking the truth from her heart.
Including having to bring a man in (albeit the father, not a boyfriend):
[…] determined, if he persisted in considering her repeated refusals as flattering encouragement, to apply to her father, whose negative might be uttered in such a manner as must be decisive, and whose behaviour at least could not be mistaken for the affectation and coquetry of an elegant female.
I have tried it several times and it really doesn’t work quite as well. There is a group of men between those who respect my words and those who only respect my fictional boyfriend’s claims that this approach is working on, but it’s certainly less effective. Worst case you get hit with a “you just haven’t been fucked by the right man”.

As a younger millenial I can’t help it – Gangnam Style was and still is great
AfD und CDU schicken bei mir auch zuverlässig Leute zum Einwerfen, die entweder nicht lesen können oder für die Regeln nicht gelten
Similar story: At the time of the 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean, a song called “Perfekte Welle” (“Perfect Wave”) was very high in the German charts. It was taken out of rotation for a while but not completely removed.
Moderators are not here to judge crimes, they are here to help create a healthy community.
The moment I thought: “What is the point of everything if I’m not myself? Who else am I living for?”
I had a lot of confidence issues as a teen and young adult and hid a lot of myself. It was still a long way after this realisation and I’m not quite there yet, but I’m so much happier since my baseline is “this is who I am, take it or leave it.”
Social life has also improved. Turns out people like a personality even with flaws better than no personality. Who would have thought? (Not 15 year old me, apparently)
Woran merke ich, dass meine Altersgenoss*innen am Kinderkriegen sind? Die beliebtesten Kindernamen sind die, die mir auch gefallen würden. Bin wohl ziemlich basic
But have they tried running “kill all the poor”?
Yes, I do. I sometimes have problems with other types of wool, especially around my neck and collarbones (I can wear wool socks however). But I never had any issues with my merino leggings or shirts. Absolutely no scratchyness for me. Your mileage may vary though.
I don’t have anything to add to the answers to your question but I would advise to avoid Shein even second hand. Their clothes have been tested to contain dangerous levels of toxins several times. Other fast fashion brands are not more ethical in production but at least they keep the chemicals within the regulations.
I don’t know how I ever lived through winters without my Merino leggings. They are warm and comfy. But they were not in a price category I would buy 8 of them.
It’s neither necessary nor recommended to wash wool that often. For me it’s enough to air them out on my balcony over night and only wash them after several wears, so I’m good with 2. But if that doesnt feel right to you, them maybe wool would not be the best choice for you (or you’ll have to replace the leggings more often).
What I can think of in German: Rose, Erika, Jasmin, Iris (maybe Viola but that’s not really the commonly used name for the flower)
There are many versions between the original and the TMBG version and after. My personal favorite
