The question should be, should you continue dating someone who has a crazy ex? Because anyone who has an actual crazy ex and the situation is ongoing, will tell you all about it 99% of the time.
That sounds interesting. Hopefully, they will get back to you. Nothing on this planet raises my blood pressure more than when someone says they will do something, and they don't.
I have a work acquaintance and she is permanently single. I know why. She has an annoying voice and goes round in circles when she talks, it is the worst possible combination. Sometimes I count how many times she went round in circles talking about the exact same thing, it's just worded differently. On average it's 3-4 times. I would lose my mind if I had to deal with that.
Yeah what I have learned is that you can meet someone ANYWHERE. You just don't know. I have another friend who met someone from playing an online video game. They weren't even that far apart, what are the chances of that?
Nah. I am just conflicted because obviously he is the guy to comment fire emojis under random girls posts. But it ended up working out for him, so can I even knock him for doing that?
One of my friends got a girlfriend from Facebook. FACEBOOK, who even uses Facebook? He said he commented on her posts a few times and then went in the DM's. I don't know what to think about this. They've been together for 8 months.
You can easily play people into calling you a good boy. If someone asks, why or do you do this? You can respond by saying of course because I am good boy, they will say something along the lines of yes you are. Then I get happy.
The end is coming. At work they are training us to create AI processes to make our work more 'efficient'. I see right through that shit, they are asking us to create things, that will replace us, or downsize teams at least. Save on them salary costs.
I was in a toxic relationship. All things considered it wasn't that bad, most of the time. Involved a lot of arguing, playing each other and jealousy. Lasted over a year but I do believe we could have grown out of the dynamic we had going on. It was exiting and eventful at least, who doesn't like sleepless nights?
Nah, everyone likes validation from the opposite sex, especially if it someone you want to get validation from. There is no point denying it. Something making you feel good is not worthless.
By definition yeah, but these terms are often conflated with each other. Really the only was to distinguish whether someone is a passport bro or a sex tourist, is by the individual and what they do not what they say they are.
I guess it goes both ways, the guys and girls both exploiting each other, and then there's those looking for something genuine, building a better life for themself, a way out of poverty, or actual interest in the culture from the guys side, I don't know.
How many passport bros do you think are genuinely looking for something? I think most of them would rather play the field instead of actually settling with any of the girls. It's basically exploitation if you think about it. I's all under a fake promise and expectation.
Yeah I am just trying to understand the dynamic, like do these places become hotspots because guys go there, and the women get encouraged to date them, or what, to be fair I can't think of any other reasons.
Being a good boy is hard. I said I won't slip up today, but I did. I told a mf to go fuck themself. I won't give up though I will continue trying my best.
Nah, you just have no options. It's basic economics, if you can't have any, you will take anything presented to you. It is probably a way to compensate for your lack of options. Usually people have a specific type and don't stray too far from that criteria.
You don't know the baseline, I don't know the baseline. Nobody does. So why make the claim 'returning to baseline'? What does that even mean? And then the baseless assumptions that I want 'sexlessness to be lower'. Yeah I'm out. Goodbye. That is why this subreddit died.
There is no actual average, that does not exist. Besides this is the quality of debate on this subreddit, getting sent a left handed graph, what the fuck? Pointless.
That in fact yes, future relationships for Gen Z are going down and will continue to do so. Could you not just say that? You asked for a source, I provided.
Why not address the graph? A sharp rise in sexlessness across younger demographics is not indicative of any relationship issues? And it is trending upwards.
Nah, the graph shows slightly more male virgins. A brutal amount of men who have not had sex the past year compared to women. And similar number of men and women who had no sex in the last 3 months
Why would I fight for a system I do not like? And there is always people like you ready to go fight and end up dead in a ditch, I don't have to. And for what? When in recent history has a war been necessary or even beneficial?
Yeah if war was to break out, there is no promise, no amount of money that would make me consider going out there now, let this shit get blown up I do not care. I'm playing video games.
No I mean an actual reddit boo, chances are they are either from the USA, UK or Europe. You fall in love and obviously they would rather you coming to them, than them coming to you. You marry and live a good life. Nice house, 2 cars, dogs, and whatever else you want, I don't know, children, going on cruises across the Atlantic.
What do you mean by gatekeep sexual access from most men? Most men on this planet end up having a relationship at some point in their life. Probably like 90% or more men.
'In addition to the reasons put forward in the Introduction to account for why preferences are not always expected to predict choice, humans may not be able express their own preferences accurately' From the study itself. Almost every tall woman I have witnessed is with either a guy of similar height, or shorter. Rarely tall, because tall guys still prefer shorter women.
Tall girls almost always have much more relaxed height preferences. My theory is that since growing up they always felt like the odd one out for their height, they see smaller/average people as normal, hence more appealing to them. Anyways since she already rejected you, you are finished so just keep it cool if you don't want to ruin whatever you have going on with her.
Nah I got plans for you. Marry a gay guy, for a year take it in the back but at least you will be a citizen in whichever country they are from. Much more realistic and honestly, does not sound that bad.
Everyone calls my reddit boo a crazy male hating feminist, but she is not even crazy, she's not even man hating she just breaks down delusional incoherent rants logically and smartly. Besides some craziness is hot anyway.
Yeah I am not really bothered about my freedom. What I am worried about is what kind of future I will be raising them into and how difficult it will be for them. Only way I see it happening is if I am able to give them a good headstart.
Me and my brother used to fight over who gets to play the ps3 after school. He would launch the controller at me and I would cry to my mom, she would feel bad and say that I am playing now.
I can't explain why but I find the marks in the photo appealing, could just be the specific photo I don't know. Anyway, if someone went through that for me, the least I can do is appreciate what it represents.
Since this sub is dead I will share a personal story about this time I got transfished on a dating app. It was a normal day, not even sunny or anything. I open up my app and see I matched with someone, I'm like damm, I'm going to message. We start talking, its all going well, I am doing my job. Its been like a week, were planning to finally meet up, go on a date. I'm here imagining a whole life with this person, 2 cars, a house, dogs, mini me's running around, a good life. Then a day before we m…
Can you define what you mean by simping here exactly? Seems like any behavior excluding being an outright asshole gets you written off as a simp online.
Q4A: What are you doing - you post a thirst trap photo on the internet, you grandma comments 'aww my sweet baby look how much you have grown up' A. Reply 'Thank you grandma' B. Remove the comment C. Ignore the comment?
Sub is dead anyway. If moderators followed their own rules they set up there would be 3 people left. Almost no one here debates in good faith, or even comes with an open mind. Go play video games instead.
I am scared of needles. I get anxiety when I need to have a blood test. The nurse tells me to look away and that she will be quick and gentle. I would not donate blood voluntarily due to these reasons, I will only have my bloods taken out of necessity.
Nah I reviewed the situation thoroughly, I was having lots of exchanges with her, many comments deep, no one reading that. I reply, instant downvote. Do you know how devastated I was?
I meant they have no feminine energy, be it coming from a friend, partner. If you can not get it anywhere else the only option is to seek it from within. Do you not value feminine energy in your life?
I think 'the one that got away' is a delusion anyway, it's an old image you have of them in your head. You or them probably are not the same person anymore, doubt it would go anywhere.
Yes it will. Oil prices going up affects EVERYTHING. A lot of people are already struggling as it is, this will have a knock on effect, imagine being a young person, from a normal family trying to save money, or get into a stable career in a downward economy.
So in your head, who rejected who? Because if you felt rejected then yeah that is brutal. But if its you who rejected him then it was not that brutal for him, he was obviously not interested or taking it seriously.
So like I said earlier 'The questionnaire lists behaviors and you choose. It literally self selects for men who do these behaviors, as men who don't have nothing to answer. The study is about the behaviors, frequency, success and consequences of these behaviors.' It is nothing to do with the amount of men who are rapey.
But you can't answer no. ChatGPT the study. The questionnaire lists behaviors and you choose. It literally self selects for men who do these behaviors, as men who don't have nothing to answer. The study is about the behaviors, frequency, success and consequences of these behaviors. I'm not denying that a lot of men push boundaries, but twisting the study into 95% of men are rapists is crazy.
Yeah, so rapey questions. How do you frame a rapey question in a non rapey way? You can't. The men who answered are rapey, how can you answer if you do not use these strategies?
Nah. You tried to encourage and engage in sexual activities with a person who came out of rehab, has been told to stay at home, they were talking about sneaking out of the window. And you were emphasizing that they have BPD. Disgusting.
No. 95% of rapey men, have recently used rapey strategies. Learn to read studies, it is nothing to do about the number of men who are rapists, it is about rapey men and the strategies they use.
'Men reported occasions where they tried to get a woman to engage in sex who they knew she did not want and to which she had not consented' 'rapey men have you done rapey things' - brilliant study. That is like asking murderers if they have murdered people - no shit.
Most people are not promiscuous. This thread exists so the promiscuous people can tell the average person that they are not outliers. Yes you are. It is valid to be offput by promiscuity, don't take it as an insult.
Cedric and Hubert are stupid. In the Male Survival Guide it explicity states to print at least 5 copies of your favourite actresses to get you through the tough times. Why were they not prepared?
I've read about a theory that even if alien life does exist, by the time we come to find it, its probably extinct or dead due to the amount of time that information would take to reach us. Same thing with how humans sent out signals into outer space, by the time it is intercepted by anyone, we will be long gone.
Yeah. I'm not chopped I've probably got a touch of the tism though. I remember when I turned 18 I downloaded Tinder, insane likes and matches basically straight away, just could never move it forward, or I fucked about.
Imagine this, you wake up everyday, you check your dating apps and no one wants you. For months, everyday you do this. Then you post your profile, random guy says, nah bro change your profile do this. You go out change your photos. Again you wake up, for months no one wants you. You post your profile again. Random guy, nah bro change your profile do this. Bro you are finished, any logical person would reach that conclusion.
So many chopped guys on the Tinder sub asking why they get no matches. Bro you are chopped, that is why. Someone needs to tell them straight, delete the app and play video games.
Yeah, so what you are telling me, is that asking a person who you do not trust, for reassurance, is enough for you to believe them. Which is stupid, and you know that. It is absolutely a useless shit test.
Where do you draw the line? For example is getting a friend to send a DM to make sure they would not talk to other people, navigating or playing games?
You can look at my new crush if you are bored. https://preview.redd.it/r1efxkbfrcug1.jpeg?width=1355&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=621d6f8ebbece467a788bea93b4f94b53d22e74e
The only people it keeps is those who are desperate and would do anything. That is very bad advice, if that is what is being thrown out there no wonder there is so many problems.
You said it. Do shit tests. You also said you are more than happy to prove things if questioned even when given no reason to be doubted. This is the advice you give?
I'm trying to understand the logic. You are talking about saying one thing but doing another - at that point you should leave, why even bother asking questions? Why questions my motives, when I have made it clear and have given no reason for them to be questioned?
And you don't think that could lead to issues later on? Being questioned over everything, trust issues. That is exactly the type of behavior displayed.
Why are you bringing hypothetical scenarios into this? Answer me this. If you are dating someone, you made your intentions clear, they have no reason to think you are lying. And they keep on questioning your intentions, what would you do?
This is a hypothetical scenario. We are talking about what type of people put up with shit tests, and it is definitely not well intentioned people with self respect.
If I tell you, I am looking for something serious. And few days later you question me again, that is absolutely a shit test, absolutely shows a lack of trust at the very least. I'd be gone there and then.
I now understand why anime is so dangerous, before yesterday I have never watched it. I watched CyberPunk Edge runners and now I have a massive crush on Lucy.
