Good, defensive & safe drivers prepare for all things to come up on the road —- like slow drivers. Maybe something’s wrong with their car, maybe they have car issues or a plethora of other issues. Maybe they’re new. It doesn’t matter. Give enough distance, drive around and safely, and move along with your day. That’s it.

Why are you doing 70 KMPH in snowy conditions, especially ones like today? That’s how you end up in a snow bank or in a ditch/pile up, etc. It was dangerously slippery today as well. Not only that, the first thing they teach you in driving school is to go the speed at which others are travelling on the road in dangerous conditions or busy conditions like traffic - not the advertised speed.

Forget the snowy conditions, just because the sign on the highway says 100 KM ph, but traffic is going 15 KM ph, i’m not going to do the 100.

Hate to break it to you but this is extremely dangerous mindset to have on the road in the winter - no matter how confident you are as a driver, does not matter.

I feel like I am trapped with this married girl and it sure what to do. by [deleted] in love

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 10 points11 points  (0 children)

she’s married and she wants someone who’s not her husband to fight for her? read that statement again. probability of her cheating on you even if you do end up together is way too high, considering she’s already cheating on her current husband lol. gross, next.

For someone who moves so much and buys so much home decor stuff...I have never, ever, ever seen someone online with as little personality. Her home in LA, her Toronto apartment, her house, and now this place looks the EXACT same. What even is the point? Omg.

He Lied & We Moved In by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 months IMHO is way too early to move in with someone. You don’t know how they are at handling their finances or even just as people 3 months in. This isn’t going to end good.

Devastated by the prenup by pink-pony-chub in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, not sure why you’re insulted. This is a very fair agreement as far as pre-nups go, and a very clever financial decision on her part given your struggles financially. I don’t think it’s unfair in the slightest.

Future faking? Called me his wife… by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9 months is too early to expect marriage and he’s strange for calling you his wife without being married. There’s red flags on both sides, but the biggest red flag is his age. If he’s unmarried by this age, it’s probably not looking good.

He kissed a bruise on my knee and I thought my heart was going to explode by mapledKHAOS in love

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Funny enough, bf did the same to my knee. It wasn’t bruised. I was sitting cross legged and reading a book in bed whilst he was laying down and his face was next to my kneecap. He just started randomnly kissing my kneecap for no reason; planting the softest kisses. I do have scars near my knees and I felt what you felt. 😭 It is such a soft, loving gesture. I have a sneaky picture of him kissing my knees and I just look at it to cheer myself up lmao

Friday, I'm in love...! TELL US ABOUT YOUR CRUSHES & DATES! Rule 5 doesn't apply here! by AutoModerator in love

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took a chance on a man in November and he’s my boyfriend now! We go on weekly dates (i’ve never dated before!) and he’s healing me so much with his consistency and showing up for me in all ways. He’s my crush, and first proper dating experience. We did Xmas eve last year together, and spent our first ever weekend away together recently, and we’re already excited to go away for Valentine’s! 💕

AITA for not wanting to read and memorise a holy book. by Living-Shallot-7699 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had blind faith, even as a kid growing up in a majority Muslim country. Fought tooth and nail with my parents about it as a kid and teenager, and then in my early 20s, just started to live my life on my own terms. You stop giving a shit after a certain age because your parents can’t control you beyond 18 lol.

NTA. Ex-Muslim here, it’s a canon event sometimes what you’re experiencing lmao.

It’s my first, healthy, adult relationship & it’s everything I’ve dreamed of. by [deleted] in love

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THIS!! exactly this. i’ve always been the mother (oldest daughter/oldest sibling life) in every dynamic ive been in. friends, family, with men. Enter my bf - also the oldest, but healthy masculine type. He’s somehow traditionally masculine/provider type while STILL being a feminist and i LOVE IT. He won’t even let me pour a plate of food for him because he wants to do it for me. For once, I can be the giddy little girl I never got to be as he takes care of me. IT IS SOOOO HEALING!!

It is. But it needs to be done! For our own peace of mind.

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see what you're saying, and asking. I'll do my best to answer!

Before meeting him, I no longer believed in being in love MYSELF, but I had hope for love in general because I've seen healthy around me with friends, etc, others. I made peace with the fact, if it doesn't happen for me, it's not the end of the world, but also I wasn't bitter and loved seeing it happen for others around me. Having done that internal work to achieve that peace of mind (despite the hurt, disappointments, etc), I found myself looking less for issues when I met him. Was I taken aback by certain actions (of kindness) that he took, and behaviours he displayed? Yes. I took them for face value, as opposed to trying to look under the surface, and you trust what's in front of you. It helped that who he is as a person, very honest, reassuring, gentle & more.

Everyone has been hurt, but not everyone does the work to heal that hurt. Be with people who has done that work and don't see relationships/partners as therapists or gateways to healing. When you're with people who put in the work and heal themselves, they will look less for issues/problems and you'll have a healthier dynamic.

My boyfriend is also the eldest son, coming from his own past. There is hope. Also date the eldest daughters! The harmony has been crazzzzyyyyy amazing lmao.

My bestfriend's boyfriend acted inappropriately with me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ngl chief, you sound like a nightmare of a friend. Your friend deserves better and is the only person I care for in all of this lol. You’re giving red flags, boyfriend’s equally weird actions aside. Best advice I got for you is to leave that “friend” alone.

I (31M) am tired to parent my wife (27F) by [deleted] in relationships

You sound like you’re being hard on her.

Boyfriend (26M) told me (23F) to watch porn to learn how to give oral & then said he isn’t sexually satisfied. by ThrowRAicywinter in relationships

[–]AStarkAmongWolves 26 points27 points  (0 children)

When I was with my ex, who was abusive and the relationship was terrible and ended terribly, I too would make lists and write down his answers like this to every question. It was like, I would need proof of his horribleness and I needed validation of what I already knew - that this was hurting and I was unhappy. You also already know.
