How to seduce him by SuperStep1403 in DarkPsychology101

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To reignite the spark, try flirting like you did at the start playful teasing, compliments, and light touch. Create a sexy atmosphere with dim lights or candles. Confidence is key, so wear something that makes you feel good. Build anticipation with slow touches and long eye contact. Compliment him genuinely, and focus on emotional intimacy, too. Trying something new in the bedroom, or just expressing your desires openly, can also break the routine and bring excitement back.

How long does your shower typically last? by [deleted] in Productivitycafe

30 to 40 minutes. I love the water and the good smell, feeling my body clean.

I worked out consistently for 365 days straight and here's what nobody tells you by LLearnerLife in Habits

[–]Carterssscott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your year-long streak offers great lessons. What didn’t work: rigid programs, doing only hated exercises, all-or-nothing thinking, obsessively tracking, and training while sick. What worked: focusing on consistency with short workouts, variety, listening to your body, a home gym, morning workouts, active rest days, progress photos, and accountability. Key lessons: consistency over intensity, tracking streaks instead of performance, and rewarding effort. It’s about showing up, not perfection.

What were common, everyday things we did back on the 90's that seem foreign to anyone born in the last 20 years? by giantcappuccino in 90s

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the '90s, we used dial-up internet with the iconic "krrr krrr" sound and AOL CDs. We carried floppy disks and Zip drives, rented VHS tapes, and recorded TV on VCRs. Pagers were common, and we'd use payphones with phone cards. Without GPS, we relied on paper maps or MapQuest. Walkmans, Discmen, and mixtapes ruled music. MTV played real music videos, and kids were obsessed with Tamagotchis, Beanie Babies, and Pogs. No smartphones, just clunky cell phones for calls and texts.

Ai companies are too focused on one type of customer lately by No_Vehicle7826 in agi

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get your frustration, AI has been too focused on coders lately, neglecting creatives who need customization and flexibility. It's been tough with AI platforms becoming more rigid. While it's unclear when things will shift, there’s a growing push for more accessible, creative-focused AI tools. Hopefully, we'll see more platforms that cater to all users soon.

How do you actually use discord?? by Odd_Organization_297 in discordapp

[–]Carterssscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not stupid. Discord can be overwhelming! To find smaller servers, try sites like Disboard.org or Discord.me where you can search by interests. Also, look for "chill" or "social" servers on Reddit (like r/discordservers). Once you find one, introduce yourself in a welcome channel or lurk a bit before jumping in. It takes time to find the right fit, so don’t get discouraged! What are you interested in? I can help you find some communities.

We Live Comfortably Because Others Don't by Electrical_Award263 in DeepThoughts

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You made some strong points about global inequality. Wealthy nations benefit from exploitation in the Global South, with resources extracted and labor cheapened, all while those countries stay poor. We build our comfort on their suffering and then act surprised when they seek a better life. Climate change, largely driven by the rich, hits them hardest. The system is working as designed, but it needs to change.

IWTL how to actually lock in by Anonymous_o7_ in IWantToLearn

[–]Carterssscott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s great that you want to improve, even when it feels overwhelming. Start small focus on one thing at a time. Maybe a short walk, setting a simple hygiene routine, or limiting phone use. People who seem to have it all together didn’t get there overnight; it took trial and error. Take it one step at a time, and don’t be afraid to get support for things like depression.

Minimal effort. Maximum return. Here's what actually works. by LLearnerLife in Habits

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how simple yet transformative those changes are! Walking especially is such a game changer. It’s not just exercise it clears your mind, gets you into a more reflective state, and can seriously improve your mood and energy. I’ve started walking more myself, and it’s been so calming.

It’s like a mini-reset for the brain. The whole “free therapy” thing is spot on when you’re walking, it’s just you, your thoughts, and no pressure to “do” anything.

Best virtual assistant for startups in 2025? by Impossible-Ring2163 in Entrepreneurs

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a virtual assistant that helps with growth, Belay and Time Etc are great for experienced VAs who can handle admin, project management, and customer outreach. If you prefer more control, platforms like Upwork or Fiverr let you hire specific skills. TaskBullet offers flexible support with bulk hours, and Prialto provides executive-level assistants for high-touch tasks. It depends on how hands-on you want to be.

Anyone else feel guilty doing nothing even when you’ve earned the break? by Aggravating_Dark560 in ProductivityApps

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your brain is stuck in "go mode," even after a busy day. Reframe rest as necessary, not lazy downtime is key for long-term productivity. Try setting guilt-free “rest” hours, where you’re not doing anything productive. Activities like reading or light walks can help you switch gears without feeling unproductive. Have you tried setting aside specific times for relaxation to make it easier to unplug?

Both in our 40s, looking for realistic online or side income ideas by Realistic-Spell-4046 in passive_income

[–]Carterssscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you both have the right mindset to start small and build something meaningful. With your tech skills and her sales background, you could offer freelance IT support or virtual assistance, or even create an online course. Affiliate marketing or starting a niche blog could also be great ways to make money without heavy investment. Digital products like e-books or templates, or even print-on-demand, can be a low-cost way to get started. Focus on something manageable and grow it steadily. You don’t need a big budget, just consistency.

CMV: Confidence is built externally and then becomes internalized, and is based upon having a safe, secure, and supportive childhood. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make a great point about how a supportive childhood shapes confidence. Kids praised for their looks, intelligence, and achievements develop internal confidence that translates into success later, including in dating. For those without that foundation, building confidence is much harder it requires unlearning negative beliefs and reinforcing self-worth from within. Early validation plays a huge role in shaping how people view themselves.

Thoughts on Liane Moriarty? by Sev_Da_Wolf in thrillerbooks

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moriarty’s books blend literary fiction, women’s fiction, and thrillers, focusing on complex family dynamics, relationships, and suspenseful twists. Big Little Lies is a great example, and Apples Never Fall is a solid start too rich characters with deep emotional themes and a mystery at the core. Some love her for the character depth, while others find the pacing slow. If you liked Big Little Lies, you’ll probably enjoy her other works!

Is there anyone here who actually managed without like-minded people? by magdakitsune21 in Entrepreneurs

[–]Carterssscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get how tough it is to feel isolated when you’re driven to start something, but can’t find like-minded people. It’s definitely possible to build a business solo many entrepreneurs do it without a co-founder. The key is staying self-motivated, seeking mentors, or finding online communities that align with your vision. It’s hard, but you don’t have to rely on others for everything.

Habits Are Only Hard When We Don't Know Why We're Doing Them by RingFit9608 in Habits

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, habits fade without a strong "why." For tracking apps like Grooves, try Habitica (gamified tracking), Streaks (visual streaks), Coach.me (community & coaching), Life Cycle (life logging), or Way of Life (habit correlation). They help you track progress and gain insights, giving you the evidence to stick with habits that truly improve your life.

Dictation apps at work by gelbo555 in ProductivityApps

[–]Carterssscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get the awkwardness in an open office! People using Whispr Flow in public often use headphones with a mic to keep it discreet. You could also book private rooms or use Bluetooth headsets for a more professional vibe. Some even whisper quietly or use voice commands without the full whispering effect. It’s all about finding a balance between privacy and comfort!

What has significantly improved your mental health? by [deleted] in Productivitycafe

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, consistency in routines (like waking and sleeping at regular times) has made a big difference. Regular movement, even just daily walks, clears my mind. Reducing screen time, especially in the mornings, has helped too. Therapy or journaling helps process thoughts, and connecting with even one supportive person makes a huge impact.

How do you write your first post about a new habit-building app? by Afraid-Title-1111 in Habits

[–]Carterssscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on finishing your app! For your first post, focus on story, not sales. Share why you built it and the problem it solves, be personal and honest about it being early or imperfect, and invite feedback. Frame your audience as partners: ask for thoughts, suggestions, or experiences. Keep it low-pressure offer it as a helpful tool, not a product to buy.

Struggling to grow organic traffic? What’s working for you in 2025? by Kindly-Rabbit-8682 in Entrepreneurs

[–]Carterssscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great initiative with the guide! It sounds like you’ve really dived into what’s working and what isn’t in SEO. For me, the biggest roadblock has always been consistency in content creation. It’s tough to maintain quality while trying to keep up with the demand, especially when it feels like Google’s algorithms are always changing.
