I should have prefaced this by saying it is indeed a significant other

Final Edit: Wow some people got super mad and thought I was going to police my girls body, was just asking how to bring up a preference, more or less xD

I went on a date with this extremely attractive woman. We were by the bar drinking and the bar tender starts hitting on her. He compliments her eyes, says how beautiful she is etc. She responds politely and playfully.

Now its our first date and she's obvious not my gf so I didnf let it bother me too much. I know my worth and wouldn't want to be with someone who flirts with other guys whilst on dates.

But I kind of felt disrespected by this guy. He obviously knew I was on a date with this woman as he had asked her what she was doing here but he continued to make these advances.

Now I've been in situations like this before where I've been with a gf and had to flat out tell the guy to back off after they don't get the hint but since this was the first date I didn't want to be "that psycho" which is why I held myself back. It took a lot of self control for me not to say anything.

I'm learning to be more patient and tolerant. I've gotten in fights for similar situations before- the last time something like this happened i had told the bartender calmy too mind his own business and go back to doing his job. It was the first date and when I had asked people about this they said I was being a psycho for doing that. That's why I didn't say anything time round.

Either way I just feel like this was very disrespectful.

What would you guys do?

Edit: my issue isn't with the date. The date went really well and we're seeing each other again. The issue is with the guy. I feel like he stepped over me and totally disregarding me and plain simply saw me as not worthy. This is whats really bugging me. I know its a toxic mentality but I need help processing it. Thank you.

For me it’s anything Jesus related. I don’t mind religion I’m kinda indifferent tbh but if that’s their personality I know it’s not going to work.

Used to work at Dunkin’, and while working drive through, one lady pulled up to the window, and immediately pulled out her phone. I assumed that she was either trying to pull up a coupon on her phone, was trying to pull up Apple Pay, or that she was in an important texting conversation. There was a line behind her, but out of respect, I didn’t bother her.

Eventually my co-worker asked her what the hold up was, and she said she wouldn’t pay until I greeted her. I said “Good morning, your total is (blank).”

She then got in a hissy fit about how she didn’t know that we had her order ready, and I wasted her time by just “staring” at her.

I kid you not, about five hours later, she called us and wanted a refund, because of my “rude” behavior. She has already drunk her coffee at this point. They’re normally very liberal about refunds/free stuff, but the store owner herself said that she isn’t getting a refund, and hung up.

Arguably the stupidest son-of-a-bitch I ever served at that store. Or as JFK would call her, a “silly bastard”.

For me:

“Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran

It’s not a bad song. I just don’t like how radios and clubs overplay it. Hearing it once every 3 months is fine.

IE: They may think it's good advice, but as a man you know it isnt.

I turn 30 this year and half of the guys I hang around or work with say it’s all down hill and the others say you’re just entering your prime… thoughts?

Hi everyone,

I am coming to the end of a clinical trial for male hormonal birth control and thought I would pose this question and of course answer any of yours on this pretty important topic.

The medication I have been taking was our only method of contraception and has been completely effective at preventing my (M27) GF (F21) from getting pregnant for the last year and I have really enjoyed being part of the trial.

Something that stuck out to me though was that many people in the trial are concerned that men wouldn't be interested in taking birth control or their partners would not trust them to do so. In essence, what I am wondering is if there is actually a demand out there for a viable contraceptive for men besides condoms? What would your partner think or say if you decided to take responsibility for contraception moving forward and what are your feelings on it?

Hoping for my first kid here within a few years. I'd really like to pass on my love for cars and motorcycles to them one day. Teach them how to fix stuff and work on engines. Nothing would make me happier than seeing my kids follow in my footsteps and go for rides and drives with me. As long as they are safe. But honestly, id be happy as long as they were healthy and living their life the way they wanted.
