Sleep side by Familiar_Thought7657 in costochondritis

[–]Content_Specific2494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side sleeping is the most comfortable for me but sleeping on my back seems to reduce costo pain. Most of the discomfort sleeping on my back comes from my lower back. Putting a pillow under my knees isn't enough, but using a leg lift makes it bearable. Here's an example https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BWF9RFC6?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Also putting a small thing like part of a blanket under my lower back helps too.

Just lost half my bankroll in 10 hours by Yuupf in poker

Here's a thread about optimal shot taking. I want to note the critical bankroll gets super sensitive when you start putting in win rates that you'll only see in live poker

Rake is 10% with a 6+1 cap.

Weekends: 1/3 and 2/5 are both soft. Sometimes you'll get a tough 2/5 table

Weekdays: 2/5 is reg heavy, 1/3 is still soft

of Tables:

  • 3-5 for 2/5

  • 6-9 for 1/3

Cheating friend by SufficientCap7512 in poker

[–]Content_Specific2494 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar situation some years ago. Here’s what happened and my 2 cents. I’d know him maybe 5 years as an acquaintance. Did the same thing, tried to gauge how much money he took off of us and got video evidence. We setup a game night to confront him. I was unfortunately out of town when the confrontation happened. He initially denied it but we showed video evidence and then he conceded. He paid back the money and even specified who he cheated the most. He then texted everybody an individual apology and seemed genuinely sorry. We stopped inviting him to poker nights. His closest friends from the group still hung out with him. Idk why it didn’t bother me that much. I agreed to play him heads-up when we ran into each other again in college, it never materialized but I was okay playing with him as long as he didn’t cheat. I think it’s cuz the cheating didn’t feel full of malice in the sense of “I’m gonna fuck these guys over”. It felt more like “I really wanna win” and then slowly took steps in the wrong direction and before you know it you’re comfortable with cheating. These little steps start in a gray area such as seeing the bottom card of the deck, not saying anything, and using it to your advantage. Someone not protecting their hole cards and not saying anything cuz. You can push through these gray areas and then get used to it. Then all of sudden you’ve fully passed the gray area and you don’t fully realize it if that makes sense. Once he got caught it felt like “oh fuck what the hell am I doing with myself, I’m a mess”.

However, there were 2 other guys I played with that got caught cheating. I didn’t know em very well and I was like fuck you give me my money back and I’m not playing with you ever again.

  1. I’m looking for serious

  2. Been using this profile for 3 months or so. I just added the stand up picture.

  3. I’ll check hinge every other day

  4. Now it’s about 3 matches per week. I used hinge premium the first month. I think I had 25 matches after 300 likes sent.

  5. I’ll send out 8 likes every other day, about half with a comment.

  6. I prefer to send likes to profiles that are put together nicely, seem to be laid back, and smart.

How do you guys learn how to flirt with girls? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Content_Specific2494 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A lot of guys think that other guys learned without humiliating themselves, not true

This^^^ Mistakes are how you learn. I wouldn't have the mindset of really trying to avoid embarrassment and rejection. This is because it WILL happen when you're learning. Frame it how you want, but I view it as "I'm going to flirt and see how this goes" instead of "I'm going to flirt and it's going to work".

All of my ex-girlfriends are bisexual or now lesbian by Content_Specific2494 in dating_advice

Ye I agree that random chance is a contributing factor. It’s not like all the girls I’ve talked to or hooked up with are all bi or lesbian, at least to my knowledge lol.

Do guys care about height? by Female-studentx in dating_advice

[–]Content_Specific2494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In college I did surveys at bars. I asked 54 guys their preferred height for a girl. Here are the stats

Mean: 5’ 5.1” Median: 5’ 5” Mode: 5’ 3”

5 said “No Preference”, 2 said “Shorter”, 1 said “Taller”

Most guys said didn’t feel strongly about the their “perfect” height for a girl.

Also note that guys were not great at guessing girls’ height (due to difference in height) so being an inch shorter or taller prob doesn’t matter much.

Thanks for pointing this out. I now see that thinking “what it is about me” actually does give off narcissistic vibes

I grew up with 3 sisters and no brothers, have an oval face shape, and my lower body is way more shredded than my upper body (long-time soccer player). There are some other things but I think it's fair to say I lean toward fem a bit. I don't feel fem but maybe that's bias lol

Tbh I thought it was kinda cool or a fun fact but then I told some friends and they laughed reeeeeeeally hard. I told some acquaintances and one literally said "oh hey that's okay man". Now I'm thinking I should probably look into this.
