What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

Nudity.

I love people getting naked, sharing naked pics, and all things nudity. But, I am a little shy about taking part myself. Although I have an exhibitionist streak, I also have a shy streak that overrides it.

That said, I think everyone else should get naked!

I just assumed it was a carefully crafted persona to keep us all begging for more glimpses

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

Taking things personally or being overly sensitive sometimes.

I will be surprised when I learn that someone was affected by something I’ve done or said, but then I will go and get my feelings hurt over something trivial, too. I’m working on that.

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

When someone is having a bad day or has something else going on in their life and they snap at someone else, I'm usually pretty good at suggesting that the other person shouldn't take it personally.
When someone is having a bad day and they're rude to me, I will take that SO personally, and spend the next 30 years wondering what I did wrong to cause such behavior.

Edit: I now realize that my answer is 99% exactly what @Love_Is_Blonde just said above me.

I'm also a hypocrite in that I appreciate originality in others, but am rarely original myself.

This is totally me too. I'm just gonna steal your answers.

That’s exactly what my shyness wanted you to think!

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

I do some sports coaching so always going on about diet. Then go home and eat ice-cream

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

Spending money. I’ll totally judge someone for “wasting” money on small things that I deem frivolous, but then I’ll rationalize spending a shit ton more on ballgame tickets or a big ticket item.

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

Getting stuff done. If there’s something I really don’t care about doing, I’ll let that job languish till the sun dies. But if my son doesn’t do something? I’m all over his ass.

What's something that you're just a little bit of a hypocrite about?

Being organized, I never give it enough time as it needs, but I go crazy with disorganized stuff from clients

Ice cream is essential

Ice cream is essential

Exactly

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)? How did it work out? Who do you trust to know who you might gel with? Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else? Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

 

[LadyLascivious1]

06.20.24

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)? How did it work out?

Never.

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

I can’t envision asking anyone to set me up, but I might consider an unsolicited suggestion. I think @MedicalMuse and @Lord Pmann know me well enough and they’re both very astute, so I’d trust them.

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else?

Once. Senior year in high school a friend asked me to set her up. She left it open other than that. They’re happily married with four kids now. We’re not close anymore, but I do smile when I occasionally run into them or see them on social media

Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

I don’t think it was obvious at face value, but there’s also a lot of chance involved. I’m happy to see people find their happy and grateful I got to be a smart part of their story. I don’t think I’d ever be the instigator in future matchmaking, but if someone I knew asked I’d give it my best shot.

One person on Lit has asked me to set them up. I didn’t feel like a had a great suggestion at the time, so I deferred.

 

[hotwords229_A]

06.20.24

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)?

Yes. People are always trying to hook me up with their friend. That’s when I realize that my friends have no idea what I’m looking for.

How did it work out?

It didn’t. But I have become light friends with them. They were sweet women, but not what I want romantically or sexually.

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

I can’t even trust me with that kind of responsibility.

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else? Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

Not really. I have pointed out obvious matches and encouraged people to try it out, but never a flat out set up.

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)? How did it work out?

On Lit - no, I did pretty well on my own
Off Lit - yes, in the distant past, with mixed results. The effort was appreciated but the choice was clearly made superficially.

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

I don't think it's a matter of trust. Everyone in my life gets a slightly different version of Stacy, so picking someone would likely end in an 80% match

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else?

I have - though not intentionally.

Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

I believe I've a very perceptive person and pay attention to non-verbal cues.... which has offered up opportunities to match up people who may have not normally seen the connection.

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)? How did it work out?

Oh definitely not. As soon as I feel someone might be trying to matchmake for me I get anxious and run away/log off

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

Lindi knows me pretty well so I'd trust her judgement here. I don't think there's anyone I'd ask irl though.

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else? Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

I don't think I have done deliberately but there have been many occasions where I've introduced friends and they've hit it off later. I don't think I could consciously do it though as I'd just totally overthink.

 

[PrettyLilPussy19]

Follow up question -

I love seeing who you'd trust enough to set you up with someone. Who (on and off Lit) would you trust to nudge you towards towards someone with possibility?

 

[beachbaby179]

True story. I started dating this guy. After 2 dates, I wasn't sure about him. Fara told me to give it a chance, and go on a third date.
We're getting married in September.

06.20.24

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)?

Probably in my younger years once or twice.

How did it work out?

It went from "I want to introduce you to my sister." Then it was like "Nevermind she has a boyfriend." Cool?

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

Whoever can convince @morelikeasong and/or @LadyLascivious1 that we should be a super hot lit power couple/throuple.

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else? Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

Fuck no and n/a.

06.20.24

Have you ever been set up (on or off Lit)?

Not fully set up but I’ve had folks help things along.

How did it work out?

Off of lit a work friend suggested coffee with me and another coworker I was crushing on. Then she had to leave early and asked him to drive me home. I had no idea this was her plan and was kind of mortified. We will be married 32 years in August.
On Lit, anything that went past flirtation was something I initiated.

Who do you trust to know who you might gel with?

I would always listen to a suggestion but I’m not sure anyone knows me that way.

Have you ever played the matchmaker for someone else?

Yes I have. I have talked people up to each other and enjoy it.

Does it come naturally to you or was it just an obvious match?

It comes naturally. When I have people I like and think they may like each other it is easy to talk positively about them to each other. My goal is not necessarily romantic match making but widening a circle of friends.

Follow up question -

I love seeing who you'd trust enough to set you up with someone. Who (on and off Lit) would you trust to nudge you towards towards someone with possibility?

@cascadiabound and @Mrtenant I don’t think of these two as matchmakers but I trust their instincts on people so I’d go to them for their opinions

 

[Seokrocks]

The summer I turned 12, at summer camp in Maine, my sister was a counselor and spent the summer trying to set me up with a girl in her cabin. I didn’t like her and never gave in.

Fast forward a year… we are on a family vacation in Montana, walk into a restaurant for lunch… and are seated at the table next to HER! I spent the whole meal staring at my lap.

I’ve never actually been set up and I am clueless about relationships so you don’t want my recommendations!

Just a little This or That

Which is worse - having someone else be disappointed in you or feeling disappointed in someone you respect? Why?

Just a little This or That

Which is worse - having someone else be disappointed in you or feeling disappointed in someone you respect? Why?

First of all, missed you.

Growing up, I was always trying to please the people I looked up to because of the environment I was raised in.
Through therapy, I have worked through that and just try to do the best I can now for me.

Nowadays, I have to say the second is worse. Respect has always been a big thing to me. When someone I respect disappoints me, the respect begins to erode.
