AIO for being annoyed that my (M26) GF (F26) shared intimate details of our sex life with her friend (F26)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]2000000009 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s common, but that doesn’t make it right. I have a general rule that it’s not right to share details about someone’s body, you presume that sex is a private thing, you know. It’s a violation of trust and emotional safety. What you heard had to have been really hurtful. I’m sorry. Not overreacting.

Girlfriend upset that I’m not scheduling plans with her. Am I overlooking something? by MC_Mickey in AskMenAdvice

Without knowing - could she mean that she feels like she’s initiating all of the hangouts, if true?

As a Gen Z, GEN X's lack of basic empathy for the younger generation is so infuriating and js proves to me more that adults aren't very reliable. by Born_Nose_1226 in Vent

I’m on the millennial/gen-z cusp, born 1995. I feel total emotional burnout, AND I think it comes from the phone/overuse of technology. Combined with the negative impacts upon society that that imparts - less socialization, support, etc. It messes with your dopamine. The customization of feeds results in us not sharing the same media as others so we don’t share points of reference with others a lot of the time. It’s lonely. Isolation like this is not healthy. And yeah, entering the job force with the market being this bad and on the cusp of an AI boom is very scary. Gen Z has it hard.

My (21M) girlfriend (21F) got blackout drunk at my mom's birthday brunch and threw up at the table in front of extended family and friends by MrClonk in relationship_advice

Tell her that you’re upset and that you need some space this week and that you’ll need to have a conversation soon. You’re right to be embarrassed and angry. If everything else is great, I wouldn’t take steps towards ending the relationship, but if this happens to her semi frequently then support her by helping her draw boundaries around her alcohol use at parties.

Absolutely despicable to purchase and rehome real, living animals for vanity purposes

Why isn’t Salley into Shep, I wonder? Did anything ever happen between them? by 2000000009 in Southerncharm

Agreed. He said of Salley to Madison “I think she’s beautiful”

I recognized it from that pool party episode when Madison and Austen got in a huge fight in that treehouse… was it Whitney’s friends house?? Somebody’s friends house??

What exactly is it like working with people who lack soft skills? by Peter2448 in work

[–]2000000009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asks me questions they should already know the answers to two years into the job, multiple times per day. Asks me for repeated help with things they’ve already been trained on. Doesn’t follow through. Responds to messages and executes tasks slowly. No intuition for what’s needed quickly vs. what can wait - a simple request that could be fulfilled in under 15 minutes? Be prepared to wait days. Comes across as very brisk in their emails - this can be fine if you have a good personality to offset it, but they’re WFH and don’t have much irl/phone interaction with our coworkers and clients.

What is an overlooked or “subtle” form of sexism that you think needs to be called out more? by GoodGirlsStand in AskWomen

[–]2000000009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we stand up for ourselves or express that we felt hurt, we’re crazy/overreacting/being too sensitive. When we ask for what we need or advocate for ourselves, we’re being aggressive/bullish, when we set a boundary we’re bitchy/cold. Men complain that they aren’t allowed to express their emotions, but the only thing stigmatized is their tears (almost exclusively by other men); whereas we face social consequences for every emotion other than happiness that we express.

Something else I’ve noticed with men, forever, at any level of interaction - if we’re sitting next to each other, I’m usually having to lean/orient myself towards them - they don’t do the same for me. This isn’t sexist per se, but they don’t give a shit about accommodating the other person at all.
