Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Not being anti-gay but the data plainly tells us that FF relationships break down faster than MF relationships.

The longest lasting marriages are MM.

Why is this? I have no idea as I've never studied the phenomena, what's more I'm not qualified to do so, but it means something.

women read into things way more than men do. that's why.

all my relationships with women ended because she created this weird fiction in her head about me/us that had very little basis in reality, and trying to point that out just made them fly into a rage rather than admit that maybe they were possibly wrong. i remember one time my girlfriend was complaining her coat wasn't warm enough, so i got her a new warmer coat. she took this as me trying to control her life and 'shut her up'. she wore the coat but like resented me for making her life easier? it was utterly bizarre. i had this issue with other girlfriends too... they saw me doing nice things for them as some sort of sinister act to buy her flowers, make dinner, or take her to the airport.

when i give men gifts they say 'thanks'. women i give women gifts they want to know 'what it means' or think it's some sort of conspiracy.

How about FM relationships, though?

Usually breaks down after 30 or 40 miles.

AM lasts longer but the quality just isn't the same.
