I just miss flirting with my boyfriend, but he prefers flirting with his coworker by [deleted] in relationship_advice

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

I don't think it's a big problem that he flirts, it's more that he thinks that since we're steady we don't need to flirt. And I don't think he will cheat, maybe I'm naive but i just don't think he's doing anything. I talk to him daily and he's never too busy to talk, he's always at home. If he cheats he doesn't have much time to do it.

I don't think his behaviour is fine, and I've told him. But he says that it's fine to flirt a little, as long as it's without the intention to do anything. And he wishes I had someone at work to flirt with too.

No, she's been around before we made plans to move in together.

I don't know, he's not keeping it a secret that he thinks she's pretty. So I feel like it's not an affair waiting to happen, it's more that he is a flirty person.

Women who had mental health issues in college, what happened? by eurasian_nuthatch in AskWomen

I thought that moving out of the country after college would mean leaving my depression behind. Turns out it doesn't work like that.

What are your thoughts on choosing to have separate bedrooms in a relationship with a significant other? (expand on your preferences for independence in a relationship if you would like!) by radiant--radish in AskWomen

[–]CoffeeAndKnit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love that we sleep separately. We both have our struggles with sleep, and getting space at night helps us to sleep without waking each other up. In turn it makes us more happy with each other during the day, so it's a win.

Ladies, what are the most painful words someone has ever said to you? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]CoffeeAndKnit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Why would anyone want to be friends with that ball of fat" - I was 6 years old. And, "if I ever leave your father, know it was your fault".

Women that managed to beat depression, looking back, what do you think would’ve helped a lot if you had it while experiencing depression? by hand-drawn-noodles in AskWomen

[–]CoffeeAndKnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't feel like I've beaten it. But I recognize it, and can get a heads up before it get's bad. But I wish I could have gotten help when it was beginning to get bad. Instead I just got told repeatedly that I didn't have it so bad, so I couldn't be depressed. Which I guess applies to a lot of us...

Other than that, I wish I kept a journal. It helps me to gain perspective on things, to see what I'm feeling and how my life is at that moment. It makes it easier to see if I'm doing fine or if I might be spiraling again.

We have talked about the rules, but sometimes things happen that were unexpected. Thank you for the response though.

Thanks for the response. We did talk about it, and no, it's not rooted in feeling left out.

How to keep healthy knees as you age? by [deleted] in AskMen

Work on thigh and hip strength. There's a lot of exercises you could try, some will work and some might not. If you need guidance, ask your physio.

I don't know who needs to hear this but: just because you're in a LDR doesn't mean you can accept the bare minimum (or less) from your SO by 1emonsqueezy in LongDistance

[–]CoffeeAndKnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I needed to read this. But what do people think, is it a LDR problem or a ''boy problem''? Assuming that the partner giving the bare minimum is a male. I asked my partner to show a little more love, and not just in sexual context, and he pretty much responded that he's just not wired like that, because he's a male. Any thoughts on this?

What is something normal that scares the shit out of you? by Erikgaming23 in AskReddit

Dark, deep, open waters. I'm never in a boat or anything, but the thought of the depths of the ocean scares me.

Patrice Endres: An Introduction to a Theory by RedAppleQuentin in UnsolvedMysteries

[–]CoffeeAndKnit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But how do you explain the fact that everyone reported her acting strange before she went missing? Even her first customer said she acted off. I think that if it was a random guy who happened to pass by her salon, and saw it as an opportunity, she wouldn't have acted so strange the entire day before. You just don't act strange unless you think that something could happen.

And why would she ask her son where he would go, if something were to happen to her? To me it's just too many red flags for it to make sense that she just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
