But. Why? Why would he?

“One is one thing and one is a different thing” is your rebuttal? Nice.

Do you prefer natural insulation against the cold over clothes?

It’s really hard to give advice about this without knowing both your circumstances. But what I know about relationships, romantic or otherwise, is that you need to talk to each other. Tell her you want to spend more time with her, ask her if there’s any way to do that, be willing to compromise, find a solution. No yelling or accusations, you don’t want to pressure her into anything but to find out about how she thinks and feels.

If you like each other, if your views on the world align, if you make each other feel good, little else is necessary for a relationship. Everything else can be sorted between the two of you if you talk to each other and tell each other your thoughts.

I don’t know why your partner doesn’t like doing those things. I don’t exactly love “going out” either and talking on the phone stresses me out. Depending on her reasons she may be willing to compromise and go out sometimes if it’s very important to you and you don’t pressure her. Or she might not, again depending on her reasons. That’s when you’d have to decide for yourself if going out is an integral part of how you want to live your life that you don’t want to give up - which would be fine, it’s your decision, you’d just have to be open about it.

You assume it’s about you but she just might not like phone calls and going out in general. It might be unusual but it says nothing about your relationship. You do spend time together, yeah? Talk to her, without accusing her of anything, and ask her.

A relationship is “calling, texting and going out”? Well gosh, I should tell my husband that we’re not in a relationship at all and haven’t been for the last 25 years.

Way to jump to conclusions about other people that you don’t know anything about other than three sentences on the internet.

Jodie Whitaker’s accent.

*squeee* (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧

I’ve adopted what probably counts vaguely as Estuary English (I suspect I’m more RP than the average Londoner though because that’s what I was taught in school). A stereotypical, badly done Scottish accent is the most fun though.

Other kind internet strangers have already helped me but thank you :)

Good lord, I was wrecking my brain about what you were even saying, hah. I know nothing about the makers of AI slop videos other than that they fucking annoy me but anyone suggesting that they’re somehow all members of any one specific group of people can fuck right off.

Wait. Did you interpret “they” as “((((they))))” or something? ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ

Sorry, I don’t know what you’re asking.

The people making loads of AI slop videos. Or what are you asking? I don’t have any names.

Huh. I did not know you could do that, I was trying to figure out how to add it in the settings. I’ve been helped by the other kind internet stranger but this is valuable knowledge too, thank you.

Ahh, the wildcard was what stumped me. Thank you, works like a charm!

What does “adding” it mean? Talk to me like I’m stupid.

Edit: never mind.

Firefox. I feel a bit stupid right now because I can’t figure this out.

(it burns, it hurts our eyeeees)

Huh. That is indeed interesting. Have you figured out how to use this version as browser default?
