Just leave her alone man. I know it's hard but you dumped her for someone else on the "love" holiday and are now coming back like she's a consolation prize. You may not think of it like that, and you probably don't intend it to be like that, but those are the optics.

Fair enough. I hope to get mine one day, if nothing else because I live in Texas and I'm close(ish) to the Mexico border, and my boyfriend has family that lives in Mexico, so at some point we'd like to go see some of them... but it'll be a bit lol

Serving good food rather than junk is nice... but there are ways of doing it.

Either with a buffet, or if you have a set menu with many dishes, the usual way is that the last pre-dessert serving either has a way where the guests can add more food, or have second helpings .

I'd be so disappointed if I had any of the things you mentioned - other than the salad - but customs vary.

Your poor friend hahaha. I know people like that! But in my case it's almost reasonable, because I live in Texas. You can pretty much drive all day and still be in Texas. Sometimes I think that Texas is inescapable and my presence here is a form of punishment for some atrocious sin I must have committed in a past life. Texas is suffering.

Then again, I went to Canada briefly as a child for my uncle's wedding. But I was like 3 years old and I only kinda remember it. It was in like 1999 too, so I didn't even need a passport to go. Kinda crazy looking back on it haha.

Don’t reach out to here. This is a part of life- you fuck up, you move on, and you learn from that mistake. Just because the first girl was hot doesn’t mean it would work out, especially now that you dumped her for a frivolous reason. I doubt she would trust you again. Just date some other women and stop looking at ā€œthis girl is more or less attractive than that girl.ā€ Women are human being, and dating is about finding someone to share life with. Look for someone who’ve values, lifestyle, and goal for the future is compatible to you and make sure you have at least one or two hobbies in common with them. Then treat them with respect. Attraction matters, but it is far from everything.

Well I am from the midwest. When I was 23, I had a buddy who had never left the state border. We went to a different city on a road trip with our friends band. He was stoked. It was on our side of the city though. We offered to drive an extra 20 minutes but that wouldn't have counted so we didn't.

To be fair - it's really only super uncommon only in lower income households. Ya know, people who can't afford to travel and whatnot.

I say that, of course, by at 27 years old I still don't have a passport and my baby sister got hers at 17 after saving up for a year to plan a summer trip to visit a friend who lived in Italy. Pretty sure my mom doesn't have one either, tbh.
