Maybe talking to foids just isn't for me. It's so stressful :tetosadd:
@teto it's gonna be alright man, just make sure to keep talking, don't try to be too defensive about it, just change topics if it comes to it.
@themilkman you say that while I stare at one of my anime figure preorders that I might have to cancel now
@themilkman does that actually depend? She wouldn't even approve of Westoid media merch
@teto @themilkman Is it because she thinks it's childish, or because she thinks it's a waste of money? If it's the latter then that's a green flag if you ask me.
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman man is supposed to make money and reproduce not make money and have fun. That sort of thing
@teto @themilkman "You should only work and have sex with me."
Wow, she's that horny?
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman no she's approaching her 30s and looking for a husband for life
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman pretty sure sex would be nonexistent if it isn't for making a baby
@teto @themilkman So if there's no fertility, then you are expected to work 14 hours per day!?
Not wife-material. 😤
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman no but she has sort of autistic ideals while I have autistic hobbies
@teto @themilkman She can be a bit more realistic. People need to have fun and unwind after work, surely she can understand that.
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman her reaction made me want to hide in the underground. Makes me feel like I'm back in highschool, fleeing to my nerd friends. Except those are all now on fedi and discord instead of in my class
@teto @themilkman Maybe you should tell her what you think? And that it doesn't prevent you from providing for your household.
@Jens_Rasmussen @teto i would say just wait for her to bring up the topic again later, and by then you would have had a better response for it, you would also be much calmer in your response since time passed by
@themilkman @Jens_Rasmussen I'll buy a gun and blow my brains out when that time comes
@teto @Jens_Rasmussen chill down bro, by then she would know more about you and wouldn't have those assumptions.

besides take it from her point of view, maybe the fact that she said she is willing to learn more about it, is that she doesn't really believe you are that kind of person.
but because she wants to be safe, she wants to be proven wrong in her beliefs about weebs.

remember it's not like she is just gonna end it all after all that time, might have been just a week but she did have a good time talking to you didn't she?

she specifically asked for you, even if she is slightly annoyed with you being a weeb, i don't think for her it's enough for a dealbreaker.

if she said she wants you to drop it altogether maybe, but instead she said she wants to understand it better.

what i say, stay away from the topic until she brings it up, or once you feel comfortable about it just bring it up with her and introduce her to some of the classic movies.
@themilkman @Jens_Rasmussen so does that mean I should cancel my waifu figure preorders and get rid of the nendos?
@teto @themilkman Cancel the preorder, because you should never preorder, but don't get rid of what you already have.
@Jens_Rasmussen @themilkman nigga figures are always preorder or they are second hand
@teto @themilkman I wouldn't know. I've never bought a figure because merch doesn't mean anything to me. I look at my screen 90% of the time.

@Jens_Rasmussen @teto @themilkman pre-ordering physical goods always makes a lot more sense than digital ones. It ensures that you get one. They produce an excess as well but you never know how popular something will be and if you'll be able to snag it in time. For video games, pre-orders used to be way more worth it because you'd find that if you went to the store on the actual release date the game you wanted would be out of stock. It wasn't like you could just download them. You can't download an anime figure either lol.
