“She is just giving me a ride to/from work" was often the excuse if people saw ust together but honestly no one cared. The fact she WASN’T a teacher made it no big deal.

Sort of. Unless you go to a private university taxes go to the public schools to fun facilities and wages for the educators. While you may pay tuition, the overall cost of that education and the services needed for one to do research doesn’t come wholely out of your pocket.
Now I agree you should be compensated more, as someone who tried to get published academically and has filed patents I can see why there is a split of compensation.
Had a girlfriend when I was in highschool who was too old for me, had an old Chevy Blazer and loved the Cake song Stickshifts and Safetybelts. Everything about her was fun on a bench seat.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•The Pacifist Challenge - Beating Super Metroid Without Killing EnemiesEnglish
14 daysI was all excited until I saw that its all just glitches. I thought maybe part of this would be real play but heck at this point why not just run on an emulator and set the PC register to the point where the end game cutscene starts?

3 monthsThere are so many games I would do speed runs of, not on purpose put out of muscle memory. It really is nice to have Retro Achievements to force me to play them more fully.



That is the big issue, and I get it. I never felt weird, age wasn’t an issue. But I can also see where others could be taken advantage of.
We ended up dating for 2 years and things ended due to life logistics. Was oddly the least crazy person I ever dated and we ended up friends after. Still bump into each other once in a while when I go back home to visit family.
