So I've been accused of sabotaging relationships, and maybe this is that, but i feel justified.

I'd been dating a dude for about 3 months when we decided to go for a drive through this really scenic area near where we live. There's a mill, and a pretty stream. About 30 minutes in, he finishes his gatorade, rolls down the passenger window, and hucks the bottle into the stream.

I made him get out and get it. Told him he could get the bottle or walk home. He got the bottle, and there were no more dates after that. I feel like I did the right thing.

You did the right thing.

I absolutely hate people who litter. There’s simply no excuse for it. If you can bring the item when it’s full, it’s certainly just as easy to carry it with you when it’s empty.

“But there’s no trash can here” So? Carry it with you and go look for one, you lazy bum.

And throwing trash into nature / scenic spots is not just bad for nature, it also shows a complete disregard for others who might want to enjoy that area too.

Yes! Especially considering we were in a car! Like, for real, you didnt even have to carry it! Just throw it in the floorboard for all i care, but dont you dare throw it in a stream!

I really, really liked him, but after that, that's all i could think about. Just instant turn off.

I am totally with you. I used to make my passengers pick up ten cigarette butts if they threw one out. It happen several times and unfortunately they didn't have trouble finding ten. Also...hmu in the dm's if you're still single.

Haha. Don't tempt me. I'm painfully single.

Unfortunately no. Ive driven through and stayed there a few times. But im like...14ish hours away. By car. Hahaha

But I am always down for good conversation!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Good conversation is good!

[–] ratman150 16 points 11 months ago

That had no chance of being a relationship.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Seriously, I cant even start to understand why someone would just throw out trash, especially in nature and especially when in a car, its not like you would even have to carry it yourself.
