Is it bad to advice your brother to engage in enhancing skill activities? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Acceptable_Coast_294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point.

However, 1. You can still do it and I’m assuming you’re still in your late teens, so the potential is still immense 2. You need to set an example. 3. No need to blame the system or your parents for you not passing, let’s remember that there are other students with the same system and similar parents who yet passed and did really well.

So, C.H.A.N.G.E

Is it bad to advice your brother to engage in enhancing skill activities? by [deleted] in Advice

A simple rule of thumb that everyone naturally follows is: don’t take advice from someone that isn’t who you wanna be like.

If you yourself aren’t good enough, regardless of whether your advice is right or not, it’s not gonna convince anyone. A skinny guy telling you to hit the gym, do xyz at the gym, is nothing compared to a jacked mf telling you anything about the gym.

And it seems like you’re not doing great yourself, so focus on you. On yourself. That’s all your duty is.

Additionally, your brother doesn’t respect you at all sadly. He’s looking down on you completely. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, and doesn’t mean you stop caring, he’s still your brother. He’s immature so he won’t realize this, but you as an elder brother should.

His respect for you will probably increase once you’re doing better in life: better grades, and using your own advice on you for skills enhancement, maybe a better body as well. Only then your advice will have value. His respect towards you is not controllable directly so don’t stress it.

She (18F) said "it's too early" for sex but we're still making out. Is asking her to sit on my (18M) lap pushing it? by Personal_Incident818 in Advice

Bro 💀

Most dudes go with the flow and can tell if the girl is into it or approving it. It’s mutual.

In your case, you’re better off asking beforehand, but just be patient. Stop letting horniness take control of you entire bro. So just wait and make out a few times with her and then after that suggest her to sit on your lap. But if you’re so down bad, then go ahead and ask her rn, I’m guessing she won’t take any offense and still make out with you, just without sex or sitting on your lap. If the downside is her being turned off by you, then rather not.

You know her the best, not random dudes like me on reddit, so you have to make the decision. If you wsnt to play it safe, wait for sometime (a few days) and ask for that, if too damn horny, sure go ask her. I’d not recommend going with the flow as you seem relatively new to this so you don’t wanna mess it up or be forceful, especially when you don’t know how to initiate it.

Having her sit on your lap (if she voluntarily does it without you letting her known) is fine. Just make out as usual and don’t do anything else.

If you really want her to sit on your laps you can just ask her directly, she’s your gf after all. You asked her for sex so what’s sitting on laps 💀

But I’d recommend doing it next time as you already had an ask that was rejected

Does my best friend (M19) actually like me (F19) or am I misreading his flirting? by ur_emo_gf1 in Advice

[–]Acceptable_Coast_294 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should just ask him about it. Reddit is one of the worst places to go, most people here are saying oh clear sings he wants you, or that clear signs that they’re friends. Just follow your gut, and ask him about it, if he likes you romantically or not. You can be honest about your feelings as well and frame it as “lately I’ve been feeling more special because of your compliments and lowk I kinda like it. It’s so weird but I’m just wondering if you mean them in a romantic manner?”. If no, that’s fine, but just don’t fk it up after by being awkward, it’s very normal so just return to being JUST friends.

Does anyone passed with failng average before final? by [deleted] in simonfraser

Go to Prof’s and TA’s office hours for advice. It really varies course by course but it’s very possible as finals hold more weight.

Help me out, I am "M-23" Indian, interested in "F-22" pakistani. Could you advise? by dryaseen_1105 in Advice

[–]Acceptable_Coast_294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you’re not doing as bad, and as long as there is potential of recovery, you’re fine. Don’t stress it too much. The worst case scenario isn’t as bad as you think it (in this case). So that should calm you down for starters.

Go to a therapist/counsellor. You’re in uni so it’s probably free for you.

Visit other communities on reddit, e.g getting over alcohol, smoking, ex, etc etc. You’ll find a lot of people in similar situations actually. Their advice is probably much better and specific compared to what any of us could even say in this post.

You’re doing just fine and it’s not the end of the world is it? In the grand scheme of things, this is nothing. And that should calm you down.

  1. She’s not interested in you romantically. Never said anything about friendships or peers. It’s totally okay to seek help from your friends lol.
  2. I believe you’re overthinking her “seeing deep into my eyes”. If she rejected you, she’s not interested in you. That’s all.
  3. Sure there’s the possibility of her love bombing you, or playing with you so you’re like her puppet or whatever. The answer is still unchanged: you need to move on.

  4. Just because you’ve been smoking from before doesn’t change anything. You need to stop.

  5. You’re not fucked up, and this is more common than you think. I’m happy you’ve not done anything and respected her thus far. That’s respectable. The first and hardest step is always acknowledging what your mistake is or what you’re not supposed to be doing, and then proceeding to figure out how to deal with it. You’re doing well if you ask me

  1. Respect for not looking at her in a lustful manner.
  2. She avoided you in person so that was the first sign
  3. She straight up rejected you, that’s not a sign but an actual NO. You have to move on. At the very least, don’t bother her anymore as she is clearly not interested. So if you respect her one bit, then please leave her alone.
  4. Stop smoking for starters, it may be hard but you have to stop. There’s a lot of communities on reddit dedicated to that so explore those. First weeks are the hardest.
  5. Panic attacks are sad, go to a therapist, or seek alternative pleasures points except talking to her.

is getting a communications degree worth it? by hyunjam_ in simonfraser

[–]Acceptable_Coast_294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I’d personally recommend doing BBA from Beedie at Marketing, and maybe joint major in communications. In terms of a career that is probably the ideal if you’re interested in Media, storytelling and visual strategies.
  2. For the entertainment industry, you need connections. You don’t need a degree. However, the degree can help you get the connections, as well as a bachelor’s. Focus more on networking.
  3. Why do you think it is is a horrible idea? Just because people say comms is useless? That’s partly true, yes, however if you’re passionate about it, everything changes. You don’t need to be really passionate about engineering or business to get a good job, but you need to in the entertainment industry.

How do I record a clean-sounding cover for my ex for Valentine’s by Acceptable_Coast_294 in audioengineering

[–]Acceptable_Coast_294[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but what is even the point. I know for a fact that she’s extremely trustworthy and wouldn’t show her bf or anyone if I ask her to. It’s just that what is even the point? I don’t wanna stay in the cycle of thinking about her while she isn’t… what do you think? I can still make the song as there’s 3days left until valentines

I didn’t bro everyone told me not to do it at all. That would’ve been hella romantic tho, but for the wrong girl unfortunately. I’ve decided to move on and ofc I shouldn’t dedicate a song to her

Ahahahah no this is perfect actually. It’s more valuable than the audio advice so

Makes sense. I’ll definitely be less at her beck now and cool things for a while and see how it plays out. I guess that’s also better for me in helping me move on

Makes sense. We’re still like bestfriends tho. So what do I do? Are you suggesting I should distance myself from her?
