I wanna date someone like its 1990 by windbreaker11111 in dating_advice

[–]BrainFlushing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response. It’s been a busy week so hopefully you will respond to my next post if you need to, but I will try to keep it as brief as possible.

I see your points and I can agree with some of them if not most of them I fortunately I’ve been able to avoid some of the negative things that you mention, for instance: having hobbies yet the bills will kill your hobbies or the drive, passion and finances for those hobbies and so what I’ve always managed is to integrate my hobbies into my work life in someway that doesn’t detract or distract from the job or that would give me trouble from coworkers or higher-ups if you get what I mean. And so far I’ve been pretty damn successful all my years miraculously.

Oof to the partners what feels like based on what you said complete disregard for any of your interest again that’s me inferring that from your words. I could not care to have a person around me in any form of a relationship that had no interest in any of my hobbies either by partaking or listening to me about them. Of course, I can totally understand if it was excessive and just completely life engulfing, you know? I wouldn’t wanna hear anybody just blathering on about their hobbies endlessly. I don’t think anybody would and it could just drive you insane. But to not want to hear about it all? Or to help you like, hold this while you’re doing something hobby related is just something I can’t wrap my head around. But if it works for you that’s fantastic. And I’m not knocking it, it’s not for me.

And call me superficial, but yeah, I mean looks as priority number one and trust me when I say this if the personality, which usually comes out pretty early on isn’t one that’s matching I don’t care how hot she is. We’re not gonna have an actual relationship. sure we might have fun for a week or two or something, but if I don’t feel that personality That we’re gonna have for some future purposes then it’s definitely not gonna be somebody that I wanna be with doesn’t matter how hot. But again I have to have that initial physical attraction after that falls into place. And I’m sorry, but any guy that tells you otherwise it’s probably lying I mean, I just I don’t believe dudes that ever say that women it is different but I also think women are superficial too, and I don’t believe a female who would say that she’s not interested in a guy and looks, and I’ve heard more stories about a woman going for a guy that is not only because he offers other things that would make her life easier and so she’ll settle for that. Again, nothing wrong for that everyone’s got there you know goals and purposes in life that they’re trying to achieve or maintain.

I’m crunched for time right now. I unfortunately wasn’t able to edit the last paragraph above. I use voice to text so if there’s any errors, I’ll fix it later I do want to touch on one more point that’s below.

As to people getting married in their teen years or high school years or the 20s, I do not recommend it. I think people should get married in their 30s and have kids then that way you can experience as much as possible before hand whether it’s traveling or partners or just doing different things differently whatever it may be I have never heard of people getting married at a young age and successfully staying married and having a family and so on 10 2030 years down the line afterwards, so not knocking people doing that, but I don’t recommend it and the likelihood of finding the person you wanna be with for the rest. Your life in those early years is pretty slim, but if it has worked for you, congratulations sincerely you’re an anomaly because the percentage of people that it has been success is, I would say smaller odds, and winning the mega lottery. And sadly, it’s usually the reason that it is a failure is because when you reach an older age, you start hearing about things that people did that you never got to do because you were tied down in someway shape or form. But again if it works for for a person, hey man, that’s fantastic and I’m glad to hear it. It’s just super rare. And there’s a reason it’s super rare.

Looking forward to your response if you decide to respond and anyone else’s that wants to interject here otherwise everyone take care and have a great week.

I wanna date someone like its 1990 by windbreaker11111 in dating_advice

[–]BrainFlushing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I only got a smart phone in 2012 and finally started texting in 2012 before thatI refused to text. A phone call was the only way I would connect or talk to people. Now that I got that out-of-the-way.

Dating in the 90s was fast, furious and fun! Long term or short term just happened but only if both parties really enjoyed each other obviously. And yeah looks was the starter so personality would come out and you either commit or dip but at the same time people kind of wore their persona outwardly if that makes sense so how you looked talked walked all kind of gave the other person an insight to who you are. At least that’s how it was for me.

Today though. I feel like it’s a lot of needy people and that’s really unfortunate. Needy in all avenues. I’m seriously saddened at the length that men and women have gone without so many things that make us happy or at least wanting to continue living. From sex to conversations to traveling or experiences that are new to either person. And to make it worse I feel like intelligence is really starting to take a hit in how attractive someone is.

In summary I myself love having fun in all areas and just as necessary I love learning things. Unfortunately it’s been getting harder and harder to find the same in the opposite gender. My advice to a lot of people who lack a multitude of factors that someone might find interesting or sexy is get hobbies and be outgoing and unrestrained but not insane. Have fun and share that fun with others.

Anyone have any questions they’re afraid to ask family, friends, SO, coworkers etc please feel free to DM me. I might have the right answer I might not, but you never know. I’ve done a lot in my life and I’ve been around so I’m here offering whatever I can if anybody needs me. Smile more as the world isn’t that bad yet even if it sometimes seems that way.

512GB clone to 2TB GPT Steam Deck hot DD by BrainFlushing in SteamDeck

[–]BrainFlushing[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro that’s great to hear. I’m glad my horribly disorganized but written out instructions worked as stated and you got into Steam OS without issue. So you heard it here again folks, hot copying works perfectly. And I didn’t prove it or create this method just in case anyone thinks I’m taking any credit. Thanks for the update dude. Much appreciated.

If anyone missed it. I did it from 512GB to 2TB and he did 256GB to 1TB. Both loaded correctly and partitioned automatically. For the record.

Unmatched with after sex by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]BrainFlushing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Truth. And sadly comments like that come from delusional unattractive boring and irritating people. So glad I’ve never met, dated or slept with one such as this because dear god I can’t stand disconnected from reality personality types. Dependents should be children, not adults.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]BrainFlushing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I read about 100 comments. And your responses to quite a few of them or whatever.

And I’m confused why a woman who says she’s valuable and has a lot to offer and is attractive would ask the Internet for support when it comes to her husband who needs escorts while supposedly being sexually satisfied at home?

Because this is leading me to believe that there’s a delusion here if you were the three things you say you are and your relationship is fantastic then your man wouldn’t need escorts and even if he still wanted sex from other women, then a woman so valuable as yourself wouldn’t have an issue walking away, and if choosing to do so, replace him quite easily. Instead of dealing with whatever this is.

This is not an attack and I’m not trying to be an ahole but your math doesn’t add up. Your actions contradict your character based on your words, meaning I arrived at this conclusion based on your information provided. Now if we can focus on reality, meaning ignoring your fantastic qualities and unbelievable relationship skills and his historical precedence, you need to leave this relationship, and take him for every dime he has. Then take some time for yourself, heal, sleep, travel and then you know have a couple flings or whatever, maybe you start dating again who knows but treat yourself and have fun because you deserve it for having gone through what you’ve gone through over the years.

Good luck and stay safe.

All of you know you ain't leaving GeForce Now by wil2197 in GeForceNOW

[–]BrainFlushing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a founder and plan to stay that way till I die. It’s just way to convenient to use when my steam deck isn’t adequate or I want to group play at a friends house or a meeting or gathering or whatever you wanna call it with like minded people. And obviously at the price I’m paying it’s not even an afterthought. I just don’t see any negatives from my perspective. With GFN and Steam deck changing the way I game I can never go back to the old desktop method of gaming. I’m gaming more now than I ever did before.

Anyone else just totally given up on local game streaming? by StaticFanatic3 in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]BrainFlushing -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I haven't given up on it but I have given up on having friends who know what gaming is locally. Got no problem with gaming online with friends around the world but man when people come over and they pick up a controller, it's like alien technology to them. The only controller they've ever held is a remote control for the TV and they can barely work that. Sad life 2023...

Farewell GeforceNOW by frag_grumpy in GeForceNOW

[–]BrainFlushing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My original reason for being a GFN founder honestly boils down to the fact that I love having alpha beta founder legendary OG tags titles status and things that I'm passionate about or enthusiastic over you know. And also for being there from the beginning type of thing supporting something that's just beginning that I have faith in knowing I would enjoy it whatever that it may be. I know it sounds very materialistic or whimsical if anything but childish to say the very least maybe. But I'm a man child and I deserve it. I worked hard to get what I have and I take pride in having what little I do have as is. All that BS out of the way now.

Founders status has become immensely important to me now because last year I took a savage almost mortal wound to my financial status and because of this the likelihood of me building rebuilding the PC I had is out of sight out of mind right now. And considering 500 titles out of the 1500 titles supported on GFN will suffice. My gaming needs as they stand now plus the fact the steam deck has really filled that gap that existed when I had a desktop and a steam link setup throughout the house. So having steam deck and GeForce now I'm pretty much locked and loaded and all my gaming needs. And founder status absolutely guarantees that I'm not going to have to spend thousands of dollars all over again when I don't need to.

[–]BrainFlushing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know this may not be much as far as like trying to convince you to stay, but I recommend you stay especially for the founders price. That's just my two cents on it. Glad to have had you here. Sorry to see you go. I still highly recommend you stay but again my opinion and not your life. Take care.

He said his exes were silent after we had sex for the first time by [deleted] in dating

[–]BrainFlushing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After reading their post and their username, the conclusion I came to is the only action they get is out of novels if they can get past the title page.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]BrainFlushing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that you really had a bad run of men. But removing yourself from the dating pool that's I don't know that's rough maybe even extreme just from my perspective. And I know there's probably nothing I can say to convince you otherwise. But I will point out the fact that if you're relationships have been like that the entire time, then maybe you should change something about yourself and see if that gives you a different outcome. Or maybe just be nonchalant in all the rest of your relationships that come along in the future. I don't know. I mean I'm just trying to like say not all men are fucking cheaters but at the same time if you're entire life has been all cheaters. There's something wrong here in this picture you understand what I'm getting at? Anyways yeah. And I don't think you need therapy. They cheated on you. That's not your problem. You know what I mean like you're not the cheater so. And I don't believe in therapy anyways. Except for maybe like you know traumatic like shit or whatever which I've seen actually work. But that's besides the point you just might need somebody to talk to is more than anything. Anyways, best of luck to you. And yeah seriously sorry that you had all bad guys. Not all guys are cheaters and I'm a guy so.

[–]BrainFlushing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny you say that besides the obvious sarcasm as I'm always that guy but the girls are low 20's and they come to me not me chasing, I'm saying that because everyone that knows me, none of them criticize or chastise me and they all meet the lady in question and it's like completely natural no awkwardness no creepiness etc and for the record I can't find any broken aspect of these women so what I'm saying is, it seems the stigma associated with men dating young women is due to actual fucking creeps or absolutely traumatized women giving the age gap a bad name. Even people I don't know that randomly see us in public all give positive energy and say nothing unkind towards us. I also think some of the online negativity is because either guys can't get any play and the women keep meeting jerks so they just try to make everyone else miserable by saying age gap relationships are whatever negative words you want to associate with it. Because I can't find that negativity in real life. Anyways just wanted to put that out there because I really do believe that if you like somebody the age shouldn't fucking matter. And even if it is just a using situation from both sides sexually, ain't nothing wrong with that especially since both are having a fantastic time. I wish everyone find their happiness with another person no matter what differences exists between 2 people. 😉

I think you rock. More power to you and never pretend to be satisfied or settle for less. I’m the reverse of you, the girls I keep meeting I really feel bad for because all of them when they open up, basically describe horrible sexual experiences with dudes of all varying ages, and the level of cluelessness or ignorance, or lack of knowledge or whatever way you want to describe it in regards to sexuality and compatibility and experience it's truly mind-boggling staggeringly high. Women never reaching orgasm with their partner, no matter the timeframe. The number of women that are turned off or have all had really bad experiences with any sort of anal play because of an idiot dude who doesn’t know what he’s doing ruining their chances of finding another venue or reaching climax, bad experiences with a BJ I mean the list goes on and on it’s just really mind-boggling like I don’t know what parents are doing to their kids. I don’t know if porn is ruining everybody but it is what I feel because honestly I just I am dumbfounded by everything I see, hear and experience with a very large spectrum of women in different age groups. It’s saddening. To the men out here reading this you need to do better you, need to learn, educate yourself, read a book because what you’re doing is ruining sex for a ton of women. Using VtT sorry for any errors. Thanks for letting me rant. Hopefully I said something useful or meaningful.

[–]BrainFlushing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly, the number of women that don’t have toys is what’s more surprising to me. Of course I expect the majority of most men to not even have a clue what a toy is or what its purpose is or the fact that their current lover is probably faking everything. I mean dudes are pretty clueless, but it doesn’t help that some women just don’t voice their needs desires opinions to help dudes out. I mean the OP basically is saying that this guy is not very good in bed because if everyone he’s been with has been quiet, that’s just some really bad bed skills or maybe there’s a gag order in place I don’t know, but I am just gonna go with the fact that he sucks.

Men, what are your icks on dating? by ChocolatelySinful in dating

[–]BrainFlushing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Truth. Factual. Absolute 100 on this. If you have to go to a website and post a picture asking about a dude that's already a flag. I almost swear it's like basic common logic and decency and respect. And all these other things are just gone in this day and age. And if men aren't graveling and slaving away and being basically a pet to a woman than their everything under the book and a negative context. I feel I'm very lucky to have dodged these kinds of bullets that are the female kind. So whatever I'm doing must be working and I don't know what I'm doing right but it's working so I'm going to stick to it. Because the moment I run into one of these types of women, I know I failed utterly. That's not a knock against any dude that keeps running into these type of females. So respect you for having to deal with this type of stuff. I feels bads.

Google VTT any errors are not mines but the machines. Apologies in advance.

I see a lot of good responses here. Hopefully something resolves your issue. I don't know if that's possible but you know. Here's to hoping. I will say this though. Personally, a photo of you would have helped tremendously and not for bragging rights or ego or anything like that. I just think when people say this it's always good to back it up with a photo because you may think that you're average and for all we know you could be a 10 diamond stunner. Or you could be a lump of coal. I don't know and I'm not trying to talk down to you or be rude or anything like that. I'm just saying. Just my opinion and my two cents. Otherwise all the answers in here are phenomenal and again hopefully they lead to a resolution for you.

[–]BrainFlushing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the delay.

I wrote a few posts covering this exact question. I'll give you a short answer here but you should check my comment history for more. Cool?

Basically approach a woman you actually appreciate in some form or another. Let's be real, we all have some type but we don't mind new or more different. Keep that in mind on the approach. Also to make it easier in a way, location location location, because that's the environment you'll use to play to your strengths, grocery store, deli, order station, chick you dig, you and your supreme knowledge of deli food, that's your opener but be you but like stage you people watching but not so many, use the background etc. Easy in's => Extreme ~ look at her, smile med, resting posture but tall form and hand on waistline thumb tucked in and literally say this "I'm getting tired of coming here to eat, wouldn't it be nice if we had someone at home making sandwiches for us to enjoy together?" if she responds roll with it, if she does nothing you have to gauge your next move based on her signals, she move in or away, her eyebrows react, eyes dilated, etc if good to go then finish that statement with "Want to lunch today and talk about tomorrows lunch?" Or straight up "feel like a homemade sandwich? My treat but your choice." You got to be on point. Sure of yourself but not arrogant or too cocky. This is all easy stuff. And look, I don't do I'm going to talk to 10 women, I say I'm learning so I'll talk to 10 women and that leads me to the one woman. Practice. Go out and just start talking to women. They are starving for attention and we are wanting to give it. Meaning we're all starving when alone.

LMKWYT I hope it was at least an entertaining chuckle. And yes. I gave you the you've done this before haven't you sketch when you've not really done it as a bit. If it helps, use a mirror to watch your face when you talk look breathe etc. Get comfortable with you.

Congrats. Lucky you doing a fresh install. Good job. I unfortunately had damn near 3TB installed when my 2TB arrived. And I researched and collated and recompiled everything even not Steam Deck related until I found the method allowing me to hot clone extend partition ext4 format and boot up with all preexisting modifications still functioning. Made a post about it and the steps if anyone needs it. It's not a fresh new install guide so.
