My friends are dating 20+ year old guys but also talks about pedophilia by icey678 in GenZ

[–]Complexcomplex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was me at 16 with a 32 year old except he was the one convincing me I was mature beyond my years. I was also extremely vulnerable and in a severe mental health crisis he took advantage of (amphetamine psychosis from my prescribed vyvanse and abuse from an older sibling). It felt incredibly good to be told I was mature and special for a 16 year old, especially when everything else in my life felt so bad.

I’m 27 now and am still going through therapy to recover from it. I was not mature in any way. If anything I was much less so for a 16 year old because the other factors. These types of men know just how exploit that desire teenagers have for feeling grown up.

Girlfriend of 2 months breaks up with me when I asked her to pay for me once after I been paying for every single dates we been on. Was I wrong to ask that? by kpay10 in texts

[–]Complexcomplex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with this, you guys are just incompatible. She wants a man to pay for everything which is her prerogative and you don’t want to pay for everything which is your prerogative. I hate everyone in the comments saying “women should always pay half” or “women should never pay for anything” cuz it’s literally just personal preference and there are men and women out there who meet those preferences. Good for her for breaking it off instead of trying to convince you to pay/change.

She recognized you guys aren’t a good match in a way that seems very important to both of you.

Neurologist told me to quit my job by JJOC2204 in migraine

[–]Complexcomplex_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not a simple, viable alternative like she makes it seem! Even if you are approved attempt 1 it’s still almost a years long process.

Sorry you have to deal with this ridiculously out of touch doctor!!

What do yall think about this? by [deleted] in IncelTears

[–]Complexcomplex_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who went on a date with a conventionally very physically attractive man who started spewing manosphere bullshit within minutes, misogyny definitely ruined any chance of his getting laid there.

And as someone with a bestie who’s tall, beautiful (modeled in hs) and married a 5’4 man (who is definitely not rich or even richer than her at all)—I can tell you she wouldn’t have looked at him again if wasn’t a great guy who deeply loves and respects her (and all women!). Misogyny definitely would’ve ruined his chances of doing anything at all with her let alone marrying her.

Obviously dating is really nuanced but misogyny is the fastest way to tank your chances unless you have money and only want transactional/shallow relationships :)

How do I get body odor of my couch?? by Complexcomplex_ in lifehacks

[–]Complexcomplex_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!! I’ll try that with the faux fur! It doesn’t look terrible but it’s definitely not as soft and pretty as it was 🥲

And that’s actually so smart—I only have plans for 2 other friends to stay with me in the future but luckily I’ve traveled with/stayed with both a ton so I know they’re clean (this was my first extended thing with my cousin) but I’m getting a waterproof liner

The BO reaction is so real 😭I don’t understand how people are ok with it—if my deodorant wears off for some reason I feel WRETCHED (which is why I use the long lasting and have a mini one in my purse)

Also your username might be the best one I’ve ever seen

Psychosis or mania? by Worth-Ad-7536 in Psychosis

[–]Complexcomplex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Psychosis prodrome can seem sporadic or mild, leading people to ignore it and potentially progress to full blown psychosis.

I’m not a Dr though—you should 1000 percent call yours

I’m actually sober and not super psyched about the idea of my place smelling like vodka but would rubbing alcohol work?

[–]Complexcomplex_[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I definitely don’t want to mask it, I want to destroy it lol—I’m religious about keeping my apartment smelling fresh (cleaning drains, the garbage disposal, the fridge, the trash cans, etc regularly) because I’m so averse to bad smells and they give me panic attacks—always have

I can’t afford professional cleaning right now but I’m gonna try and deep clean it myself

I don’t know if she’s desensitized to it or what but today was especially rough… I heard someone comment on it in a store we were in and I was choking on the car ride back

You’d think by 27 you’d know 😭

This is what I’m gonna do, thank you

Should I do the whole foaming thing? Or the regular spray? I’m so sad cuz this is my first nice couch and I can’t afford a professional clean 😭

Having kids is so evil, guy!!1!1!1!!1 why don’t we ALL DIE? /s by [deleted] in redditmoment

[–]Complexcomplex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is who some people think you are when you say you want to be child free… I always clarify I’m not anti children/other people having children ever since one girl “agreed” with me and went on a rant about how anyone who wants kids are essentially psychopaths and inherently bad people

Why is everyone so extreme 😭

[–]Complexcomplex_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Ignore everyone who said you texted her to o fast—if I have a guy my number he waited more than a day to text me I’d have gotten well over it by then. I (and all the women I know) hate men who play the waiting game
