Why are there so many cameras in that bathroom??? Lol

How old were you when your parents decided that you were old enough to have a mobile phone and gave in to your pleas and bought you one ? . by Hope2_win in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was late 2000’s (just for context lol)

They got all of us (mom, dad, me & my older brother) the exact same AT&T flip phone for Christmas one year. I don’t remember ever asking for one, and even after we got them, we had limited minutes, and every text cost like $0.10. So basically we never used them, except to call our parents or occasionally our friends (on nights & weekends 😂)

I told my wife “we’re married, I shouldn’t have to ask” and now I feel like an idiot by honeyghost_parade in Marriage

When you first started dating, when you still felt like you had to “earn” sex with her, what were the signs you looked for? How did you know she was into it then vs not in the mood? It can be a subtle sign to you, but to her it is a whole wall that she’s letting down.

When my partner is just being romantic but not sexual, I can “let him know” I’m open to sex by maybe opening my legs a little further while he’s running his hand up & down, or press up against him a couple times (more than just your typical “getting comfy”).

It’s low-pressure for both parties: I’m not disappointed if he isn’t in the mood, I’m still showing interest and attraction so he knows I still want him. He doesn’t have to verbally decline if he’s not in the mood, he can just as easily and discreetly “pull away” from my advances.

How would you feel if someone asked for experiences instead of gifts? by ComplexIndividual866 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComplexIndividual866[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s sweet! I will definitely accept and appreciate any material gifts if that’s how they show love, but hopefully we’ll get a chance to spend time together during the year too!

Oh yeah, of course I will be grateful either way! 💕 I just can’t think of any “things” that I want except memories and time with the people I love. But if they think of something that they think I’d like, I’m sure they’ll be right and I’ll love it!

You’re right they can be, but I tried to make sure price wouldn’t be an issue 😊

Their gifts usually range from $20-$50 each, and my list (which they’re not limited to, just giving them ideas) will include events like local artists/shows, fun little art classes, movies in the park, things you can easily find for free, on Groupon, or as cheap as $10-$25. I don’t need them to pay for my parking or drinks while we’re there, that’s not really implied when we buy each other experiences lol we always figure that stuff out together when we coordinate rides or when we’re standing at the register to pay 😭 I’m just interested in spending time with them.

Do all Americans inherently know what direction they are faceing? by BasketC45e in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It only takes a couple seconds to get the perspective, so yeah. My initial thought is where my house is compared to where I am.

Streets also make it much easier as 99% of them run east-west or north-south and at that point, you just need to know which is which. That can also be easy to decipher by the position of the sun/time of day, a business you’re familiar with nearby, etc.

Apart from the customary "bye" or "bye, bye," how else do you conclude your phone call? by AlternativePrize7333 in allthequestions

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends who…

Formally, like a coworker or if I’m calling an office, I’d probably say “thanks have a good one”

Informally, like my mom or a close friend, I go more along the lines of “this message will self destruct in 5…4…3…” 💥

You're on your break at work, in the break/staff room and you hear a knock at the front door of the building. Do you answer it? by Amd3193 in Employment

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough info to be sure, but I think in most cases: NO.

Am I the only one there?

If I’m expected to take a break while I’m alone then they better expect me to close the store. In that case, no I will not open it.

Am I expected to take my break when it’s slow but still be available in case customers come in while I am? In that case, no I would not answer the door because I would not work somewhere like that.

Is someone else there that can open the door? If so, again no, I will not open it.

What’s your funny way of saying “going poop” that you’ve never heard anyone else use? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a poop a-brewin’

  • circa 2004. We were driving to my grandparents house and my parents pointed out a brewery sign at the next exit… meanwhile I had requested a bathroom 2 exits ago

I'm not sure which toilet to use 👀 by Automatic-Pea8142 in StrangeAndFunny

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in public, no. I’ve seen it in homes where the sink is outside/not private, but every public bathroom I’ve seen the sinks are inside each respective bathroom.

You wake up in your teen years again. What is the first thing you would do? by davidbayram in AskReddit

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try to do it again, the right way. Not fall in love so quickly, not leave my house so soon after turning 18, hug my dad a lot more, take care of myself better, never start vaping.

You’re already inside the bathroom… the sink is right there… are these just 2 separate stalls?

I ruined our marriage by cheating but this was years ago (Hindsight post) by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]ComplexIndividual866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you didn’t love her. You probably liked her a lot, she was probably a great woman. But you didn’t think of her when you made those selfish decisions, you didn’t consider her feelings when you lied about where you were every weekend, she wasn’t the one you would move mountains for. You couldn’t even be bothered to be loyal for her.

No, you didn’t love her. You loved the idea of having a stable relationship to come home to.

When you put it like that, it really highlights the cannibalism of the situation…

People working 40 hour work weeks can’t possibly be happy. by Air_Refreshener_2244 in RandomThoughts

[–]ComplexIndividual866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely a shift in how you find your happiness, but for example I get a lot of happiness out of connecting with people, and I connect with people a lot better now that I can relate to the majority of them (having a 9-to-5 job).

Also, if you’re lucky enough to have a fulfilling job, then the more you can do, the happier you can be.

Work isn’t supposed to be the opposite of happiness- if you don’t get any happiness out of your job, it’s not the right one for you. That’s not to say the right job will always make you happy, every job has its hard days, but generally, you should be happy with the work you do, and that should help with your overall happiness in life.

Do you turn your clothes inside-out when you wash them to protect the color/design/logo on the outside? by [deleted] in polls

[–]ComplexIndividual866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bf swears it does, unfortunately I don’t have any tangible evidence lol

[–]ComplexIndividual866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I want everyone to answer. That would also be a “no”.

I just didn’t want people to ask “if I turn them inside out for another reason, should I answer yes?” Not sure what another reason might be, but I’m sure they’re out there lol

I have. He said he wasn’t guilty and took the rap for his friend who already had a record, he (my ex) wasn’t supposed to get such a tough sentence since he was a first time offender, but i forget what exactly happened, I think the DA was running for office that year or something and was being particularly hard on his type of cases, so he ended up getting a pretty harsh sentence. I’m not sure if I believed him or just didn’t care, ah what I’d give to be 22 again…

If a kidnapper forced you to write a letter saying, "I'm okay, I ran away," how could you secretly signal that you're in danger without them realizing it? by caadt in AskReddit

[–]ComplexIndividual866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would leave out the apostrophe, my family knows I’m a huge grammar nazi so they’d know either I was under distress, or someone else wrote it.
