The idea of “soulmates” or “the one and only” is inherently dangerous because it threatens the honesty of a relationship at a fundamental level. And what’s more important to a relationship than honesty?

Right? Any relationship takes work to maintain, so expecting things to just magically work without putting in any effort is a recipe for disappointment.

Also, the whole opposites attract thing is kinda bullshit when you look at 40+ year marriages.

Opposites attract works for sex though. 2 aggressive tops or 2 meek bottoms aren't gonna have nearly as much fun as one of each.

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 24 points 2 years ago

Thanks to the local porn store, I have had many an eventful evening with another meek bottom.

... also my experience, give a meek bottom some kind of hardware and an opportunity, and they turn into nearly violent tops. Lmao

[-] slurpeesoforion@startrek.website 13 points 2 years ago

Absolutely scandalous

[-] NewAgeOldPerson@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Nice name, Dharma Curious.... I should have made Dharma Chameleon...

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I think opposites and sames are bad frames to think of sex and relationships. Aggro top and meek bottom are either a recipe for a wonderful night or a terrible one depending on communication and tastes. Likewise I’ve had good sex with fellow bottoms even though it might’ve been better had she been a top. Additionally a generous vers will find no better company than another generous vers. What works best is one’s complement.

I only date other bi switches.

I'm guessing you're in Canada based on your instance so I doubt it would go anywhere. If you're in the Bay Area I'd grab a beer/ slice.

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I don't consume alcohol or intelligent creatures, but if you're ever in Waterloo, we can have sex.

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

You've confused switch for versatile but I'll fight you off for a while.

[-] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I'm all of it.

[-] Yewb@kbin.social 33 points 2 years ago

Your not wrong but there is always someone out there that just gets you, difficult to find but they exist.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 37 points 2 years ago

Oh absolutely. My wife is literally the closest thing there could be to a soulmate. That being said, we both know that there are billions of other people in the world. There’s always an option to find someone else, so we always treat each other right.

[-] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 13 points 2 years ago

My favourite phrase -

Your not wrong

Lol

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 years ago

Your not wrong

My yes right

[-] mriormro@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

This is a meme about milquetoast christian dudes...

There's no mention of soulmates anywhere. Why is this relevant?

Communication is critical but it's kind of related to honesty. You can definitely imagine a relationship where there is honesty but not enough communication or there is honesty but there is miscommunication without the issue ever being addressed.

[-] Wilibus@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Her skills in toaster operation seem pretty important given the context.

[-] Saneless@lemmy.world 77 points 2 years ago

It's also amazing that they're "perfectly compatible" with the first teenage boy their parents let her talk to for more than 4 minutes alone

[-] the_third@feddit.de 19 points 2 years ago

Hey, no reference frame, no problem.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago

And then 2 months later, she says the same thing about her new boyfriend Tristan, who is the exact same person.

[-] sillypuddy@mander.xyz 43 points 2 years ago

I quite like my Honda Accord.

[-] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 40 points 2 years ago

They could have picked a less reliable car for the comparison... or one that's more easily stolen lmao

[-] sheogorath@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Yea, Accord is good. Altima is much better to be used as a metaphor.

[-] Default_Defect@midwest.social 27 points 2 years ago

I see you've met my sister.

[-] CheeseToastie@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

Some of us wish to be a Connor, these days I feel like the equivalent of a ford pinto

[-] Damage@slrpnk.net 21 points 2 years ago

I'd like to buy Connor a beer

[-] lorez@lemm.ee 19 points 2 years ago

Sometimes taking off your bra and sliding your underwear to a side is all the foreplay you need. So I applaud Connor.

[-] MrBusiness@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago

That just sounds like standard procedure.

[-] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

So is foreplay

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca -2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You applaud the guy with one move, that only works (in your words) "sometimes". Okay, whatever.

[-] lorez@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Chill.

[-] traches@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Why you gotta pick on Connor and his girl? Let people love each other don’t be a dick

[-] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

Hey guys, I found Connor!

[-] rjs001@lemmygrad.ml -4 points 2 years ago

His girl? Is she not her own person?

[-] i_pee_through_that@unilem.org 14 points 2 years ago
[-] G6MOD@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Who is Connor? I'm confused.

[-] RedditWanderer@lemmy.world -5 points 2 years ago

I think he'd meant to be a chad? Getting incel vibes from this meme
