  • I was 17 with my first partner, who was 34. I also had a parent who failed to protect me, instead “supporting” me, and eager for grandchildren. Yeah, 17 is too young. If you approach it like something risky where people could get hurt, that’s one thing. But trying to pretend like “everyone’s an adult” and that a normal romantic relationship between two equals can develop is super harmful.

    This would be more meaningful if the type of person posting it wasn’t doing the exact same thing with the parties reversed. Why is it so terrifying for people to have a modicum of compassion and empathy for all sentient life, or if not that at least human life. Having compassion and empathy is not endorsement, is not supporting their cause, does not reduce you.

    Please unpack the irony. I’m old, I am no longer fluent in multiply-stacked layers of disingenuity.

    You believe that Charlie is wrong about empathy. But you emulate Charlie. Question: What the fuck?

    You’re just another Charlie of a slightly different ilk. You have to consciously try to learn the right lessons from bad experiences, or you’ll become a bad person.
