2024.05.19 07:33 abr_rhmn Using a dating app in a 3rd world country made me realize passport bros have a point
I used to be the kind of guy that thought passport bros were weird for jumping ship and running off to the Philippines or Latin America to find someone who actually wants them for the bald-headed, overweight freaks they are. But that all changed when I went back to visit my home country of Bangladesh as an immigrant.
For reference I am an M22 immigrant and have lived in Canada for over 18 years. Dating in my city was definitely hard, unless you’re white or asian of course. I grew up being told I was handsome but so was every other boy so it didn’t do much. Though I’ve had a girlfriend here and love interests far and few in between it never really materialized into anything worthwhile.
Queue my trip back home, upon landing and getting bored I decided to make a quick Bumble profile and slapped together some pics and just started swiping.
I got bored after an hour and left it for a little over 4 days, once I remembered I had it I opened it up again and just began swiping.
I shit you not, every swipe right was a match. Upon repeating the same steps above with Tinder I racked up over 52 likes in 4 days as well.
Needless to say I was pretty pleased with myself. Maybe I’m not a passport bro cause I’m just visiting my actual home but my god does being from a 1st world country give you an edge up in overall aesthetics.

2024.05.19 07:21 helpmeiambored18 AITAH for wanting to cut my friend off for not taking me to the doctor when my leg was injured
I have been best friends with this guy for almost 12 years. We have literally grown up together and have been there for each other. Through times we were broke, divorces, and other heartbreaks. Lately, he has been doing quite well in life and I am genuinely happy for him. he has always wanted to travel and now does so, frequently in some of the best properties in the world. I got an opportunity to travel abroad to a South Asian country - all expenses paid trip and I asked him if he would want to join me for the same. I did this because he LOVES to travel and creates content and I needed a travel buddy that will help me shoot content on this trip as this was a sponsored one. Flights - stay - activities everything was paid for in top-notch hotels for this trip. I asked him in March if he would want to travel with me in May, and at that time he told me- he wont get time off work cos he just got back home from a 10-day holiday. fast forward to May- he has decided to go to BALI with his cousin on the EXACT SAME DATES as I had asked him to come with me. (this trip was a last-minute trip that they decided to go for ) I felt bad- I felt like it was his way of saying that traveling with you won't live up to my luxury standards of how I like to travel hence this won't be a good option for me. He apologized for how things turned out and I eventually decided to let it go. Just yesterday I unfortunately twisted my ankle and injured myself. I called him in an emergency situation and told him once I figured out which doctor I could go to I would call him back and I will need assistance to be taken to the doctor. I call him back - NO ANSWER, I TEXT HIM - NO ANSWER! I eventually booked a cab and went by myself. he later msgs me and told me "Ohh sorry I fell asleep" I am honestly pissed off at him and almost want to break my friendship. I have been there for this guy for all these years. I drove 1.5 hours when he was admitted to the hospital last year just to ensure he was ok, and he treats me like this??? I am VERY upset and sad and want to cut him off completely. Am I overreacting ????

2024.05.19 06:27 FriendofMolly CMV: We should start moving to a point where it’s more widely taught that race doesn’t exist and only ethnicity does.
So the premise of my argument is that the mainstream concepts of race cause confusion and ultimately is the main contributor to bigotry. Because although you can still be bigoted towards someone based on their ethnicity / culture someone is still less likely to make assumptions about you based on your outwardly expressed genetic traits and be forced to talk to you first.
This also comes from a personal point of argumentation. So I am mixed, grew up in a predominantly black community, and ethnically I would say I’m “black”, but when asked what race I am I ussually default to just white or mixed as im pretty light with a looser curl pattern and colorful eyes. So now back to this ethnicity thing I have a problem that there is no better description or identifier for the culture that I am apart of other than black.
And then what about a black guy 2 generations suburbanized in a white community, or a white guy in a black community. Is the black guy white now and the white guy black?. What connects them to the other people of similar skin tones other than well, their skin tones. Like to us an Indian is an Indian or a “south Asian” but they don’t get it twisted they got Punjabi’s, Marathis, Gujaratis, Rajasthani and so on. And there are separate rate ethnic groups there that speak I was just naming the main ones.
Most of the world doesn’t have this problem and I think we should abandon this 1600s style way of looking at someone’s identity and heritage.
I don’t like Vivek Ramaswami but he made a good point after his talk with Anne coulter. I’m which he said regardless of his religion he was born in this country his parents assimilated and assimilated him into American culture and he is more American than many white Christian’s out there. In which he was basically saying he fits in better with upper white society than many white people.
I’m not saying to be colorblind but for logical conversation to be had about how unreliable someone’s features are for determining anything about their life or who they are.
Then my last point will be this, so the way it’s ussually classified in America is this, white, black, Asian, Arab, south/Central American, Native American. None of them give any nuance to the identity of that person and a majority of them are just geographic locations and a large chunk of the would gets left out. It all just seems so outdated and I’m shocked that we still use these terms and this logic of describing identity.

2024.05.19 06:15 Mr_Psyco69 Dreamt of a killer multiple times.
I live in a building where each floor has four flats. In my first dream about the killer at first I heard really loud noises outside my door so I checked through the peephole but saw nothing. Then I opened my door and boom the killer was stabbing a person like 3 feet to the left of my door. I really quickly closed the door but he stuck his hand in the door but suddenly I woke up.
Couple of weeks later I've had the same dream but when I checked through the peephole the killer was stabbing two people right in front of my door. I quickly got away. Then I sat down on my couch and for some reason started watching tv (💀💀). But then I heard loud banging on my door. Someone was screaming my name. I checked the peephole and I saw the guy covered in blood. I vaguely remember him screaming '"My name" can you give me some water. After some banging on the door he stopped he started a sentence but I couldn't hear it because I suddenly woke up by my sister. She was saying I was making weird noises so she decided to see what's going on.
This time I don't know how much later. Still again the same dream occured. But the start was different. I was with the same cousin that woke me up. We were watching tv then we heard screams. I decided the check again through the peephole. I saw my neighbors (the flat next to us) being killed by the same killer.Once again I reeled back quickly. I sat down next to my cousin and said what I just saw but she didn't believe me but then the checked my heartbeat, it was going at mock speed. She decided the check the peephole to but she only saw a figure. When she stopped looking the door somehow unlocked and there was a kid that was at most 8-9 years. Then he came in the house. We asked him how did he unlock the door and he said 'special techniques'. While the door was still open I saw the killer coming out of my other neighbors house who's door faced my door. I saw his face. He was a pretty old guy with some weird birthmark. He kinda looked like am old Asian guy from movies. He sprinted towards my door closed it as quickly I could but he again stuck his arm through the door. But this time I and my cousin pushed his arm out and locked the door. But to our surprise the door suddenly became unlocked the door flung open and the dream was over. When I woke up I was all sweaty and my heart was racing.
The last dream was this morning. I keep y'all updated if it happens again.

2024.05.19 05:39 akalikali Difficulty making friends as an immigrant
Students segregate themselves. Am I the only one who noticed that? Am I segregating myself from others?
Especially in the US, I noticed that a lot (not saying all!) Black, White, Asian, students tend to stay with the same race / nationality. I’ve rarely seen mixed friend groups.
As an immigrant who lived in 5 different countries, I don’t label myself…yeah I might have my Eastern European mindset/manners/ because I was born there speaking Russian (native speaker) and was raised by USSR parents, but I’m still far away from being a “stereotypical Eastern European” lol I don’t know if you get it!
M22. I Don’t smoke, I don’t drink, and I don’t go clubbing. Already cuts me off from a lot of college students!
I’ve NEVER had the chance to become friends with White Americans…I don’t know how…you guys (White Americans) have your own social circle and your rich parents paying your college tuition won’t let any outsiders in to your family…it’s the truth. Don’t pretend that foreigners with completely different lifestyle, culture, food, etc. will truly get along with Americans. Which is a pity. Your parents seemed to have accomplished the American dream while we only just got here haha. Every time that I talk to Americans…i feel like I’m being mocked. Military / retired veteran parents made fun of my dad working 2+ jobs, how we never use AC in summer, how we never go out to eat, how we don’t consume all the same media…I don’t know…
I knew many Asians (Vietnamese girls)…I guess the language barrier ruined everything because they seemed like the only motivated, funny, and caring friends. I even invited a girl for a walk which was very cute but she is moving to another state and she was interested in another guy. I’m still genuinely interested in their culture, family and country but…god knows what they are going through with their parents forcing them to study in the US.
My Russian speaking acquaintances don’t hang out with me. They go clubbing, drinking, doing other stupid things… they actually used me for their English homework and I was helping them because I was desperate to make friends (I know it’s dumb lol). I took them out to eat on campus for my OWN money and I even invited them to my house…they never invited me anywhere. Never.
It’s still a weird and hard topic for me…

2024.05.19 04:20 Beneficial_Stay4558 31 [M4F] NJ/NY/PA Northeast USA - Looking for something genuine with great conversation. Long term ideally.
I'm 31 years old, live in NJ. 5'9", 165 lbs (fit/athletic build) 3rd generation Chinese American (my family immigrated here in the 1900s). My family identifies as American as we tend to eat more pasta than rice and my generation has not learned the language. College educated with a Bachelor's in Biomedical Science (switched from an Engineering major...turns out I don't like theoretical math); currently working in the pharmaceutical industry and pretty much love the industry as there isn't any work drama and it's relatively straightforward yet challenging.
I've tried a few long distance relationships and they're quite difficult to manage...they were great when we able to meet in person and I didn't mind putting in the extra work. I'd be willing to try one if the distance is reasonable and the there is a definite spark between us. I am pretty sure I fit the definition of a demisexual, so I'll be strictly trying to form a connection first. I REALLY need the emotional connection before there is a sexual attraction, mentally I can't do hook ups (they're just really hard for me to handle and I have turned people down).
Personality wise I've been told that I tend to bring people together and keep things fun. I have a few different groups of friends and communities I am often with...and they can vary from the youngsters (21 to 30) to the old guys (60+) to the group that's around my age. I would say I'm pretty good at conversing and I try to stay on top of most current events. Mentally I'm an old man and feel more comfortable in that setting, so much that I literally hang out with 60+ years olds at the gym after a workout in the hot tub. I call them the hot tub gang and it's always a set of regulars where we might talk about the same thing every single day until someone newer to the group says that we talked about it yesterday.
I would say fitness is a major player in my life. I started out hating swimming as a kid, but here I am almost 27 years later...I made it through the lessons at the YMCA, joined a club team, swam in high school, swam in college and now I'm a swim coach and instructor as a hobby/side job in my free time. There's something about being a part of coaching people and watching them grow up and succeed that makes me smile.
My free time in the cold months usually consists of planning DIY projects or working on them. I tend to work on all the cars in the family and am the one that fixes them up or finds replacements for them. Or planning my next road trip to somewhere nicer. Whereas in the warm months I love going down to the beach to go for a swim and have a nice relaxing breakfast outdoors. I do have a few kayaks that I'll bring out to go with friends or if I feel it's safe a nice solo paddle to clear my mind. When I think about it, too many of my hobbies involve water. But I do enjoy things on dry land I promise!
I'm really looking for someone I can grow together with, a long term or forever relationship. I want a relationship where both of us put 100% in all the time and if we don't, we can talk to each other about our concerns and work it out. Honestly what I've realized is that maybe I am altruistic...I miss making someone feel happy and loved, miss the good morning texts, the waiting around all day just to see their texts, I miss spoiling someone and the feeling of that feeling of seeing that look that you get when someone truly loves you. I would love to slowly get to know you by having some conversations where the time just flies, then to a point where we talk nonstop, maybe some in person dates and then maybe eventually settle down together and enjoy life together.
Important stuff: Although I enjoy interacting with kids and it's a major part of my life...I don't want any of my own so...sorry if this is a dealbreaker for anyone. I don't drink (except for maybe wine at special occasions....I get really bad Asian Flush so I'll turn bright red if I smell alcohol essentially lol), not into smoking/drugs (Bad asthma and I'm just not into any of that stuff). I don't judge anyone that's into drinking or recreational drugs, it's just not for me personally. Religion wise, I'm Agnostic. Politically I lean relatively to the left.
I'm really searching for that genuine connection; voice calls are definitely a plus and would love to get to know you. It's alright if we end up just as friends that talk here and there.
If it sounds like you could be the one send me a chat or DM and tell me a bit about yourself. My name is Kevin and I'd love to know about you.

I'm really searching for that genuine connection; voice calls are definitely a plus and would love to get to know you. It's alright if we end up just as friends that talk here and there.
If it sounds like you could be the one send me a chat or DM and tell me a bit about yourself. My name is Kevin and I'd love to know about you.
2024.05.19 04:17 coconut_hibiscus Has anyone else experienced some dark skin black people just not liking us or not being able to fit in?
I’m mixed with 4 different things but come out more black presenting if that makes sense with yellow skin and curly hair. Unfortunately, I’ve had the unpleasant multiple experiences of attracting weird black people especially the dark skin black ones (and recently a very very weird fair skin black guy who felt the need to approve and prove his blackness by constantly using the n word (which I don’t even use) and acting like a stereotype, felt the need to comment on my appearance over and over again , how I look blasian and would not stop even after I would say that I am not blasian?l and went in on skin colour (even though he is much lighter than I am?????) ). I find that in my experiences, I find that a good amount of black people especially men as I am a man myself in university, tend to not like me. I do get the death stares , looked at side ways, looked at up and down , sometimes they would kiss their teeth at me or even spit on the floor after looking at me.
At university events , I find that many dark skin black men particularly in non academic events (so the studious bunch aren’t there but more the party sociable people) tend to exclude me and not include me. I almost have to make extra conscious effort just to be included. I don’t like it and so this leaves my being excluded from much socializing with dark skin black men as they form their own groups with other dark skin black men or occasionally will accept a white or Asian guy as their friend (occasionally their friends are largely dark skin black men but if there’s a female they welcome different shades of women) but I am left out especially as i am guessing that it is because I do not at all conform to the black man stereotype if you get what I mean. The stereotype of barely able to speak well (a number of people have actually said I am well spoken) , dressing very street with a durag , taper cut / fades , doing drugs, listening only to hip hop/rap (I sometimes listen to Spanish and French rock and I had one dark skin black guy tell me that black people don’t listen to rock? I listen to all types of music but mostly afrobeats , amapiano , French hip hop / RnB (I go to school in an anglophone area, so many don’t listen to French stuff here), rock, Moroccan music etc).
The way I dress is a mixture of kind of preppy kind of casual , more on the well put together refined side if that makes sense (even when it’s more street there’s a difference between how they dress and how I dress if that makes sense). These guys often tend to dress more street if that makes sense and I don’t know why but when I am in their setting , there’s already a dislike they have towards me and they often would rather speak to a white or Asian guy and not speak to me even if we are all new there. Or sometimes if they do speak to me, they see that I am not a stereotype and the conversation will die out quickly.
With black women i tend to find that dark skin black women socialize with me more than lighter skin or mixed race black women. In these encounters there’s often a conversation about hair , some outright vocally say, I wish I had your hair or feel the need to comment about my hair ? Some are rude and hostile towards me for no reason , I can just meet some and I am dealing with attitude from the get go which is annoying for me especially as someone who comes from a background of having a narcissistic abusive family , attitude is not something I like dealing with people right off the bat. It’s definitely a lot more of a pleasant experience than dealing with a lot of black men. I find that dealing with a number of black people, I am more likely to get along with the women over the men, but as a whole I feel like many black people do not like me , I don’t get along with many I tend to meet (with the exception of the ones who are straight from Africa and haven’t been westernized much if at all, those ones are a lot better encounters for me).
Any insights ? Has anyone else also experienced this as well or no?

2024.05.19 04:13 896_Diffident_Monad 26 [M4F] GA/TN/SC, USA Looking for my better half Car shows, custom PCs, gaming, anime, adventures, travel...a life together! 😁
(My profile is tagged N-S-F-W because I also post these in dirtyr4r since some have actually had luck finding something serious there. Figured it's worth a shot, haha.)
I'm searching for the kind of wonderful woman who shares most of my interests below in addition to her hobbies and interests, who's also goofy, likes to playfully insult each other, and also believes in open and honest communication. I believe with that, we can work out any problems when they arise. 💛
• I'm a gamer, car guy, and maybe one day, a musician too. I enjoy anime, nature, going on little adventures, swimming, traveling... I wanna see the world with you before all the beautiful sights are gone. - Current games I've focused on lately is Helldivers 2 and Deep Rock Galactic. If you wanna play those together, that would be awesome! I would also eventually like to play other things together like Stardew Valley, Minecraft, Terraria, etc. - My taste is music is nearly everything except country and today's rap. To name a few bands/musicians I really love: Led Zeppelin, Arctic Monkeys, Tame Impala, The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, Queens of the Stone Age, Mac Demarco, Them Crooked Vultures, and Metronomy.
• I want to dance with you. In the living room, bedroom, back yard, in the park, almost anywhere. I enjoy doing romantic things and expressing my love. I love deep conversations that distract us from the passing of time.
• I'm a dog person because my allergies chose to target cats for whatever reason, so there's that. 😅
• I'm monogamous and don't have children currently, but they're in my future plans, probably within the next 6 years. I want to spend plenty of time with, well it might be you, and enjoy the best of life as a couple, and then as spouses, traveling and whatnot, before we start a family. 🤗
• I'm really hoping to find someone who's also into dirty humor (amongst other forms of humor) and has mutual...interests 😏 so we have even better compatibility in the bedroom (and sometimes away from home too). I usually have a high labido, but I only want to get intimate when we're both comfortable and ready. 👉👈
• Specs for those who would like them: - 6 feet tall (about 183 cm). - 219 lbs and dropping (about 99 kg). ~ My figure is very dad-bod at the moment, but apparently it comes with a nice ass (so I'm told). ~ This is close to the most I've ever weighed, and I'm not happy with it. I'm targeting somewhere around 170 lbs (about 77 kg). - Brunette/dirty blonde, kept relatively short. - Blue eyes. - Caucasian.
• I have learned the hard way that I do have a type. I used to date outside that type, and it only led to hurt feelings, so I don't want to repeat that. That being said, my type is Caucasian or East Asian ranging from petite to average body type. I don't love going to the gym, but if you have or want a membership I would be open to going together. 😁 I apologize if my preferences differ from who you are. You're all beautiful people, regardless! Please love yourself and enjoy the time you're given in life! 💛
Chat with ya soon! 😁

2024.05.19 01:55 atnguy2 Motorcycle road rage in Beaverton, Oregon
 | Hello citizens! I need your help in locating this crazy lunatic that threaten my family’s lives yesterday, May 17th. submitted by atnguy2 to beaverton [link] [comments] We were driving south on SW Murray road at around 3:30pm and this guy in the motorcycle damaged my car, took out a knife to slash my tires and threatened to kill my family. He chased my car for several blocks down SW Murray There is no license plate on his motorcycle so I need your help to find out who he is. I have camera footage from my Tesla of the incident. I need your help to get him off the streets before he harms anyone else!! A police report has been filed. He is an Asian male, in his 20s-30s. Please let us know if you have any information on him!! |
2024.05.19 01:37 Affectionate-Big-274 First NHS fanfic to have an ending...
One of the oldest fic out there, standing at 118 chapters. Any opinions on the guy? He admitting in several occasions, he never good at writing and assume the role of a troll. One of the phenomenally rare better SEA fics out there, no superpowers, no infinite logistics and military access of ultranationalistic superpower southeast asians, (exception of SI by peco or SUSEA by viper) though it had fair share of author's power fantasy. Grammar is neither good or bad. Early chaps is basically copy paste, as most of old fics out there, pre 2022, whom had only considered as good when grammar is decent or not in script form and only began diverging from Lourian arc afterwards (people that time considered NHS fanfic good by just seeing decent grammar, as there's no wave of revolution in writing in the community as having an oc map, lore or reworked outline, only team Kai can afford that time)

2024.05.18 23:55 Tour-Sure Do British people even exist? (SERIOUS)
Do British people actually exist? I mean, they must be a meme, there is a not a single thing about them. And I mean it.
Let's go through the evidence: Where are they from? Not a single country in the world is named Britain. Some people say they come from England, and England is inside Britain, but if that was the case they would be British they would be Englanders. Also, heard some silly theories about them coming from whales. Guys, no, whale people do not exist. Whales live in the sea.
There is a consensus on British people coming from Europe, but then we are left with a whole continent of possible locations. That's as good as nothing. What do they eat? Every country has at least one main dish. Even the US has their burgers. But these British people, what do they eat? Heard some people associating them with tea, but everyone knows that's an Asian thing. Shouldn't they come from Europe? One of these two points must be wrong them. To me, it looks too sketchy.
What language do they speak? I challenge you, putting all my money and my ass on the line here, to find a supposed ""British"" person speaking their native language. Most of then just speak a broken ENGLISH. Yes, english. Really suspicious, huh? And I even tried to look deeper into it. Maybe british just SOUND like english, just like spanish could sound like portuguese for a non-speaker. So I looked up "british dictionary on google" and what I found was shocking: every word in there was AMERICAN. I kid you not. What this could mean is beyond my capabilities, but I can safely assure you that british people do not exist .

I’m 5’1 (really short) 😭😭 I’m very interested in music, nature, video games, anime and reading!!
I am into guys that are taller than me and more masculine!! I don’t mind a long distance relationship 😙🫶🏼

2024.05.18 21:56 SnooPets8873 Is it weird to ask people to go to something pricey if you are paying?
I stress-bought two pricey tickets to a comedy show. It’s an Asian performer and I don’t have any friends who share that background. I’d love to take someone who’d genuinely enjoy it, but I feel a bit awkward because it is the kind of money I think people in my circles would typically only spend on family or a SO and I’m a solo F with no family. I do have:
1) a coworker from a different country in Asia who I’m friendly with but haven’t even done happy hour with 2) RPG group who enjoy other cultures but all 3 are guys & are married - might come off wrong? 3) one of those 3 guys’ wife is friendly but we’ve never invited each other for 1:1 socializing 4) a really close friend who would have zero interest in going but would be too polite to say it 5) someone from the same Asian culture who moved here from my home state a year ago. We met for dinner once to be polite but aren’t otherwise in touch
Can I ask any of these people without it being weird? I always worry that I’m being too familiar or overstepping because I get anxious about doing too little and then swing wildly in the other direction. Like buying a Christmas gift for someone who is clearly surprised that I’d even think of them in that context.
