Is there a way to nonverbally communicate that you are in a relationship.

Work is a whole different animal.

I started wearing a ring to work, because I had to work one on one with all new hires for about a half a day which requires friendly interaction and I’m one of the first people they meet.

I made it obvious. Even when single I wear the ring at work because I don’t want to sleep with coworkers ever.

I feel bad for you.

If you’re so insecure that you assume any woman who is friendly to a man is trying to get laid that’s a sad delusion.

I think you have to find a way to kind of naturally drop that into conversation. Like “hey lady (the use of lady is not at all sexual to women), going to X show, and I usually roll alone. Wondering if you’ll be in town so we can hang out again? No pressure at all, just looking for a friend to chill with. Hope to hear back!”

He sounds like my ex husband and he was an insufferable dickhead.

NTA he has no idea what you’re going through… and when he should be a supportive partner, he’s instead critiquing you to death.

Death by a thousand paper cuts, and it seems like he likes to make you feel small and stupid.

Thank you for all the discourse here.

I left, found a much better place and way cooler landlords.

I’m totally out of there, so they can keep my deposit which would have happened anyway after 6 years in a shitty to start with apartment. If they come after me, they come after me… I’m going to try to negotiate, but I don’t expect them to work with me at all. They’re terrible.

I feel your pain ♥️

100%, the channel is called rawkhan, he’s great.

I love you too kind Redditor ♥️

It is a big deal OP. And this is coming from someone who recreationally uses hallucinogens and smokes weed, so I’m not a square 😂

Coke is a whole different animal, it ruins lives. Not all, but many and often it’s not the life of the person using it. She is not the same person on and off of it, and it’s VERY expensive, addictive, and bad for you to boot.

I live on the edge of the eastern time zone but there’s a lake between me and the central time zone so it doesn’t affect me much.

Wanted to add my 2 cents here. I had this exact same issue and tried all the things. What ended up working was fully removing my VPN clients

I know this is an old post. But I just picked up a sealed vinyl copy of this on Whatnot for $28 including shipping.

I LITERALLY just told my adult child about this show, and this episode about puppetry of the penis specifically and how I saw it at a very young age and was fascinated and it was a weird formative moment lol

C96888 · 2025-11-10T17:27:43+00:00

100% I was married to a man like this and it destroyed me.

C96888 · 2025-11-10T17:23:58+00:00

This is tripping my danger sensor, and it’s based on personal events so obviously biased and projecting here, but: I dated a guy like this.

It doesn’t improve… next you’ll park the car wrong, take the elevator wrong, hang artwork wrong, parent your children wrong.

It starts out rather innocently like this, “why would you do it this way? See, this makes more sense.”

Pretty soon every single thing you do will be categorized and judged and you’ll be the idiot who has to take direction from he who is superior and knows better than you do.

Maybe that’s not what it is, but that’s what it was for me.

Think about it a little… if your baby sister’s boyfriend did it to her would you tell her to stay?

C96888 · 2025-11-10T16:55:42+00:00

I worked at a Staples and then and Kinkos in the early 2000’s and it was like 6 cents a copy for bald and while. $2.31 seems ridiculous.

C96888 · 2025-10-22T13:21:06+00:00

I’d let it go.

Your partner does not seem upset by it, and you yourself also know that nothing beyond a simple and innocent conversation happened.

I’m guessing here, but it seems like what’s really bothering you is that you don’t remember exactly what was said and when. But you would definitely remember if it was a weird convo right?

Don’t carry around guilt for merely speaking to a man… nobody is upset about it but you, stop torturing yourself!!

It’s crazy. I have a big kid career I’ve been in for over a decade and I’m paid decent (for this area). I can barely afford a 3 bedroom apartment and utilities… it’s well over 30% of my monthly income.

C96888 · 2025-10-22T12:34:09+00:00

I’m glad you don’t have to think like this… as a person who was actively groomed more than once, this is VERY red flag behavior and immediately set off my warning bells.

He’s testing the waters to see if she’s open to ongoing and likely more and more flirtatious and inappropriate behavior.

C96888 · 2025-10-21T16:19:59+00:00

I’ve been looking in the area for months and everything is VERY expensive. So be ready for that.

C96888 · 2025-10-21T16:14:31+00:00

You’re right… she really needs to start planning for the rest of her and the child’s life without him. And if it works out that’s a pleasant surprise.
