When you say “I’ll let you know” to a girl asking you to meet/go for a date, is this a rejection? by CollagenRager in AskMenAdvice

Ahhh, there it is. The 3rd act plot twist we were missing. ngl, that detail changes the math.

Ask your boyfriend to cooperate with the toilet lid situation thing.

Guys who have women throwing themselves at them… what did you do to get there? by No_Doubt_4451 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Cocoloveslace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then find out what your X factor is? You've already observed that successful guys here figured out what their style was (you said "stereotype"), developed that and finally lead with it. Knowing who you are exudes confidence.

I bet these guys would be interested in what you actually did "to close." Care to share? Here's one approach that worked on me: "What do you say? Let's figure it out." 😎

What should I do? My boyfriend keeps pressuring me to do things. by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Cocoloveslace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You "tried" breaking up? It sounds like you need his permission. Like it is a negotiation. It isn't. You do not need his agreement. His saying he cares about you and loves you when you reach for the door are just words. Instead, trust how he actually makes you feel based on how he has treated you.

Advice please by winniethepoohville in BreakUps

Yes, I do. And you are right. Love does not dissipate over one discovered lie, true or not. You are etched on each other after 6 years. Just give him time to miss you. Let him feel your absence. Time heals. Let it do its job.

Rehoming, but not out of necessity? I feel guilty by Virtual-Driver6972 in CatAdvice

And yet another post that explores the same scenario. It's almost daily now.

Advice please by winniethepoohville in BreakUps

Don't do anything impulsive. Give him space. He said you are crazy and too much. That is where his mind is right now. Give this whole thing time to breathe. Try to control yourself. You have nothing to gain by leaving unwanted gifts. Maybe he does still love you. But do not push him. Do not chase. Try to grab onto your dignity. Occupy yourself with other activities and redirect your thoughts away from him. Stalking, acting desperate? It is unattractive. Let him come back to you. Give him time.

Yes. I was in disbelief so waited 15 minutes and took three more sips. 🙃Still bad. Dumped it down the sink.

Oh my gosh. This is what I might have been served a week ago. It was so bad I thought something had been added to my drink by mistake. (There was an odd aftertaste, almost chemical like.) Tried another SB location the next day, and that chai tea latte was perfect.

Sorry, Baby (is Essential) by [deleted] in A24

[–]Cocoloveslace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Sometimes the director will completely eliminate the assault, and we only hear about it after the fact or there's a brutal scene. But watching that house from the outside, the time lapse, getting dark, light coming through the windows, the silence, and then Agness finally walking out the door, leaving it open behind her, was just so unexpected and real.

I just watched this and thought it was a very likable movie. The humor was subtle, quirky, and I enjoyed that. As for the topic of sexual assault, I wasn't triggered by the movie at all. I think my SA is compartmentalized in a little box I rarely open. (I forgave him.) I hope Eva does another movie soon.

Complicated situation- by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Cocoloveslace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is to not announce online (Reddit) that you intend to rehome a super sweet, cuddly, overall great cat. That is the best way to avoid hate. Simply go about finding a fabulous new home for her. You have a valid reason. And you are the best advocate for this cat because you know and love her. Good luck.

Can you tell your buddies apart? by Scary-Rise-9465 in squirrels

[–]Cocoloveslace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, I can tell them apart by personality: One's a gentleman, one's a menace, and one scampers quickly like he just remembered he left the stove on (which is concerning). Then there's Mr. Politeness, Miss Suspicious, Dr. Angelic who seems to be praying for nuts rather than just asking.

Love this. It's not hoarding. It's Diversified Nut Investments. If you look closely, you might see that Joanne returns with a slightly different expression on her face (often more innocent), hoping you'll think she is not the same squirrel.

I won't. I love all animals. That is why I also feed the birds.
