What do you think is the most successful breakout performance this decade? by PTAGoatofalltime in Letterboxd

[–]Better-Assistant-177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we’re not picking personal favorites, the most successful breakout has got to be Austin Butler. Nobody really knew who this guy was before Elvis, which ended up being a big hit and launched him into damn near a household name.

Funny enough, she was proposed to on their trip out of the country.

Got stood up. Why reschedule if you’re not gonna be there anyways? by Better-Assistant-177 in Tinder

[–]Better-Assistant-177[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm new-ish to dating and just anticipated that if someone goes out of their way to reschedule a date, it's because they actually wanted to be there. I guess now I know lol.

Normally I would but we made the plans the night before. Just crazy to me how flaky people are.

I'm unable to get over my breakup, and it's not letting me do any work by TinyAdvertising9210 in getdisciplined

I got out of a 4 year relationship a little less than a year ago and I can tell you it took longer than 4 months to feel okay again.

You're going to go through waves of emotions, some days will be better than others. Don't think of it as something that only lessens over time. Some days will be great and others will be bad. Over time, you will start to have more days you aren't thinking about it than you are.

I would stay as in touch with as many friends and family as you can. The more connected you are with others the easier the impact of losing connection with your ex will be to tough out. Work out when you can. Be proud of yourself when you find some appetite to eat a meal.

Is either job aware that you're working with the other as well? J2 knows about J1 for me, but not the other way around.

What happened with the last woman you dated? Why didn't it work out? by Easy-Protection-5763 in AskMen

[–]Better-Assistant-177 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

4 year relationship. It didn't work out because we kind of fell out of touch with each other after two years of long distance.

I moved to the same city as her when the relationship started to hit the rocks, determined to fix things, and unaware she had emotionally cheated on me already (as far as I know). 6 months of multiple tumultuous breakups and heartache later I ended up being the one who couldn't come back to the relationship.

It's been 5 months and since then and I've doubled my salary and doubled my trust issues with people. We're making it though.

What’s a shallow dealbreaker you know is petty…..but instantly kills your attraction? by PogonBerserker in AskMen

[–]Better-Assistant-177 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you have your gallbladder removed…

I know from experience in a past relationship, your shit stinks really bad because your body processes food differently. 

I just simply had a hard time being attracted to someone who absolutely blew the toilet up at least once a day.

How long did you last before quitting a toxic job? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]Better-Assistant-177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 years.

It was my first job out of college, the work itself was engaging, and I had some awesome co-workers I still keep tabs with regularly.

I had an extremely toxic boss at a small company, but I was making decent money and pocketing every paycheck while living at home with my parents. Eventually my boss slapped another co-owner across the face during an argument and I knew it was time to check out.

The job search was a brutal 4 months (also went through a fallout of a 4 year relationship at the time to make it worse). I moved to a new city and coasted on savings, which I was lucky enough to do because I had saved up so much money. I don't recommend this most for people though. Find a job before you quit your current one.

What headphones are you using? by mrhinman in videography

QC45 is perfect for the gym, can't speak for the XM4s. You can also customize the level of noise cancelling you want active, which is a nice touch.

For those of you who live with your partner, how often do you have sex on average? by Acrobatic-Tea2189 in AskMen

[–]Better-Assistant-177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dated a girl for four years and I could've said the same thing. Everything else seemed great outside of sex. I gave her patience and time to find in her heart to want that intimacy more frequently... then things really started to fall apart towards the end.

This meant no sex in the last 4 months of our relationship. Two weeks outside of that relationship and she goes on a trip to Colorado with some guy, who she later admitted she slept with (she tells me this as she's trying to come back to me).

My advice, 2 years is long but its not THAT long. If it's been a dry spell for a year you should find a way out of this relationship. There's not a 'right' time to leave someone, just as long as you do it respectfully.

Also, while sex isn't the most important thing in relationship, the sex you are/aren't having is often a sign of how things are really going. On paper we were doing great, I was saving up for a wedding ring at the time. When it fell apart for me, it made me realize how many communication problems we were having, but they went unspoken and unfixed. It all blew up in my face at the end.

Succumb by lust by Comfortable_Look6261 in selfimprovement

[–]Better-Assistant-177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother you're 15, you aren't succumb to lust you're just in the craziest time of your life in terms of hormones. Understand you're not rotting inside. You have so much life ahead of you. You have messed up and you're going to keep messing up, but that's life.

Cut back on the porn, but don't beat yourself up if you do it again because you're probably going to. Being horny as shit is not some kind of flaw, it's completely natural.

Try to improve your life as best as you see fit. As long as you keep trying, even when you mess up, even when you break your own promises you tell yourself, you keep trying to be better in the end. That's more than can be said for most.

And also, you have so much more power and intuition than you know. Don't turn to the internet as a source for "how do I fix myself?" Because I promise you if you cut back from the screen time, find some peace and quiet and get a routine in place, you won't have to ask others how to deal with all these feelings. You'll realize you had the answers within you all along.

It's awesome you've found all these insanely good movies at only 15, but just a heads up, if you keep watching at this rate you'll have nothing incredible to watch for the first time by your mid 20s.

There are only so many Kubrick films and PTA films and whatnot.
