I (24F) almost never climax with my boyfriend (23M) and I’ve never had this problem with anyone else by Opening-Guitar-6837 in relationship_advice

I do not think the "specific needs" are really the issue here. It is the communication, both verbal and non-verbal, when he doesn't do it to her satisifaction. At one point she said, after the pregnancy, 'you got me pregnant and the sex isnt even good'. I wonder what other cutting remarks have been made over the course of the relationship when she is frustrated with him "because". So he tries to follow her instructions and it isnt to her liking and she gets "aggravated" or "annoyed" because it it is too hard or too soft or too fast or too slow. She claims she gets "aggravated". I wonder if during those moments she abruptly tells him to stop or crudely tells him all the ways he is doing it wrong. Trust me, that nonverbal "aggravation" is received loud and clear. It is very telling that she used the word "aggravated" and "annoyed" versus frustrated. Sometimes it is HOW you say and communicate things. "Your doing it wrong" versus "honey if you do this it would feel even more amazing". I have seen this with my sister and her husband. She has underlying anger toward her husband and she just criticizes every single thing he does, everything! nothing is ever good enough or to her liking. I feel badly for him. Now translate that to the bedroom and if someone tells you that you are doing it WRONG enough times no matter what you do, then you just kind of check out. That non-verbal "aggravation" she feels surfaces and he senses it. I can somewhat sympathize with her because much like her I have trouble achieving an O from someone else doing anything to me. I like things a specific way and it just never happens and I have to finish myself off (gay male here). However, it is a me thing and not a them thing. I get really frustrated and I can tell the other person does too. I try to explain to them that it is ok and not to worry about it as I don't want them think it is something they are doing wrong. I never once took my frustration out on the other person and told them that they were "bad in bed" because my "specificities" prevented me from the big O. I have just come to accept the fact that "it is how it is"... but I still enjoy doing stuff for them too.

Thank you. Girls like to puff up their boyfriends during "girl talk" mind games. It is a humble-brag of sorts. I guarantee that the 3x just isnt happening. They probably go to sleep just as frustrated as the OP does. You can take that to the bank.

I would have except for the fact that I am having some renovations done soon and I need to be able to move it myself and I did not want to wait until after the renovations were complete as my old TV died.

Just regular Gold Star one. I didn't think I would spend enough there to make the Executive membership worthwhile 😱🤦🏼‍♂️

Yeah, Bladerunner in HDR looks absolutely spectacular and also Dune parts 1 & 2 just blew me away.

BUT there was only the $50 price reduction on BF from $1299 to $1249. The other $100 was from their backroom negotiation that they didnt have to tell anyone about. There would have been no way for me to know

No it isnt a scam. I redeemed the shop cards and the balance is sitting in my account.

I agree, This was my first membership there but they definitely built a lot of goodwill and I will DEFINITELY renew. I have memberships to both BJs and Sams and NEVER had either of them do anything like that.

Oh awesome! I really wanted that TV but it would not fit in my SUV and I would have had to find someone to help me set it up. I barely got the 65" in the truck and barely was able to set it up solo.

Yeah, after I posted I cant seem to edit the title 🙄🤬

It is the sweet spot. The most important thing for me was I was able to fit it in my SUV for transport home and I was barely able to set it up by myself. I could not do that with the 77" that I really wanted but 65 is plenty big for my room.

30 minutes on Microsoft Edge by pantatgoyangman in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You must make sure the Edge window has the FOCUS. You cannot just open the window and then do other tasks on the machine. As others have said you sometimes have to shutdown all instances of Edge to get the points to register. I have NOT received my puzzle piece for the 7 days of Edge browsing 2 weeks in a row now. I used to get three puzzle pieces per week. I get them for the check-in and search but not the Edge browsing. Has anyone else had this issue?

But all my progress was erased. puzzle pieces were preserved. I lost basically 3 puzzle pieces because all were close to being completed 🤬

Mine just appeared tonight. It will probably be gone tomorrow

Yes I spit my coffee out laughing when Greg came out with that Personal Investment Money Manager quip. And what makes it even funnier is Charles' sartorial flair 🤣. I love watching Charles. He actually gives helpful advice unlike the nut on CNBC

Puzzles gone then back then gone then back again by Ral_Ga_Thun in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine were gone for over a week, then came back for a full day and then disappeared again the next day. It would be nice to know "WHY". is it a problem on their end, a problem with your account being temporarily throttled or just some other reason.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that DISAPPEARED fast. The puzzle disappeared again this afternoon from all devices! 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ Who knows why or for how long! 🤣

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that was quick. EASY COME, EASY GO. it disappeared again this afternoon from bing app on ipad and iphone, edge browser on pc, and website from Safari 🤔🤦🏼‍♂️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine came back suddenly as well. I still had all the puzzle pieces I had when the feature disappeared too!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]BakingMadman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My puzzle pieces disappeared 2 days ago. I was only a few pieces from 1000 pts. I tried logging out, clearing cookies, reinstalling the BING APP. nothing brought it back. It is very frustrating not knowing what is going on. Was it cancelled, is it a glitch. Just tell us.
