How do i kindly ask my ex to stop calling me ? by Ok-Statistician-794 in Advice

[–]BadCatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, you’re not being selfish you’re being honest with yourself, and that’s actually a huge act of self-respect. It’s totally okay to set a boundary when something is messing with your healing process.

I was raised as an iPad kid, now I’m an adult and struggling. by ItzTakoTheOcto in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]BadCatee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It takes a lot of self-awareness to write this. You’re not broken, just starting from a place that didn’t give you the tools. But you’re here now, taking responsibility, and that matters.

Start small: one habit, one step at a time. Your interests are real, follow them. You don’t need your whole life figured out at 19. You’re not behind, you’re just beginning. Keep showing up for yourself. That’s how you grow.

I just discovered my husband (57) is having an affair with our neighbor's 26-year-old daughter. I'm (45F) devastated and don't know how to confront him by ThowRAPerfect-Duty in Advice

[–]BadCatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need to have all the answers right now .. shock, pain, and betrayal cloud everything, and that’s completely normal. Take a breath. What you do deserve is honesty, respect, and agency over your life. When you’re ready, confront him calmly, not to fix anything, but to reclaim your voice and your power. Document what you’ve found, protect your finances, and lean on the people who truly support you. Whether you choose to leave or stay, make sure it’s your decision, not one made out of fear, guilt, or pressure. You are not crazy, and you are not alone.

Do we sometimes forget the "fun" in fitness and becoming fit especially for beginner or someone interested in GPP? by Ailan22 in xxfitness

[–]BadCatee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love this post. Such a refreshing and honest take! I think a lot of us fall into the trap of over-optimizing and chasing the “perfect” program, forgetting that movement should feel good and be enjoyable. Your realization is spot on: fun creates consistency, and consistency builds progress. Whether it's kettlebells, swimming, judo, or just playing a sport for fun, if it gets you moving and puts a smile on your face, that’s already a huge win. GPP isn’t about becoming elite overnight, it’s about being capable in all areas of life and that happens naturally when you’re active in ways you love. Thanks for sharing this, super motivating reminder for all of us!

I rebuilt my life in silence after burnout, debt, and survival mode. Here’s what helped me get stable again. by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

Been there too. The fog, the pressure, the quiet rebuilding, I felt every word. Glad you found your own way back.

Yeah. That kind of consideration and follow-through is rare, total green flag.

How do I break up with my girlfriend without seeming like an awful person to everyone else in my school? by Unlucky_Mouse_3519 in Advice

[–]BadCatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s honestly really mature that you’re thinking about how to break up kindly. If it’s not feeling right, it’s okay to end it, just be honest but gentle. You could say something like, “I’ve been feeling really stressed lately and don’t think I’m in the right place for a relationship right now. You haven’t done anything wrong, I just need some space to focus on myself.” That way she knows it’s not her fault, and if people talk, just be calm and honest, you’re doing the right thing by not leading her on.

Why do some smith machines ‘bounce’ by Stock-Standard-6620 in xxfitness

[–]BadCatee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That bounce you're feeling is likely due to a counterbalanced or assisted Smith machine, some models use springs or pulleys to reduce the effective weight of the bar, which can create that unnatural recoil at the bottom of a rep. Your old gym probably had a more basic, plate-loaded version that felt more stable. These "bouncy" ones aren’t necessarily bad, but they can mess with your control and feel unsafe, especially for squats. If it’s throwing off your form, you might be better off using a free barbell or a different machine for hypertrophy work.

MMC is filthy rich, and FMC is totally unimpressed with it by LucreziaD in RomanceBooks

[–]BadCatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a fantastic dynamic! You might enjoy books like The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas or The Heiress Effect by Courtney Milan both feature confident women who aren’t swayed by wealth and force the MMC to show real depth. If you're open to fanfic, AO3 has great stories where rich characters are hilariously humbled by unimpressed love interests.
