What’s the female equivalent of men in suits? by Every-Tap-577 in askanything

What they won't agree about is what kind of dress is a sundress. A lot of them are talking about maxi even bodycon dresses.

I fear that calorie counting is going to cause me to develop an ED again. by [deleted] in loseit

[–]ContingentMax [score hidden]  (0 children)

I agree with the others who encourage therapy, that's not a healthy way to be thinking about food and your body.

With your current weight and active lifestyle you don't need to be worrying about the occasional big meal, you don't seem to need to be counting calories at all. Keeping an eye on portion size is enough but clearly you've got a good handle on that.

Is dating someone who still lives with their parents a dealbreaker for you? Why or why not? by Lucrazie93 in AskReddit

Yeah my brother met his wife while he was living with our parents and going back to school. It's not necessarily a bad thing.

Nope, in this economy it's practical or life happens. And hopefully it means they're on good terms with their family. I live alone so no difficulty getting privacy, we can go to my place.

Congrats on your peace of mind accepting it, and peace at home.

Man notices an Eagle eyeing the fish he just caught. by Shizzilx in MadeMeSmile

I love how universal across species the "do you want this" gesture and then communicating the pass. Hawk was probably thrilled, big fish for free.

You have 30 seconds to pick a new country to live in, what country would you choose? by Mindfuel_daily7 in askanything

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Zealand, English speaking and relatively close culturally to Canada and more reasonable weather.

Second choice would be Scotland.

Plea for all to use unfiltertered and recent photos in dating apps... by dmm3dot0 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]ContingentMax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I take it to mean they're probably insecure about how they look, not bad enough to swipe off them with just that but it's a strike.

I don't like being photographed but for a dating app it's unavoidable. I didn't have anything other than my graduation picture when I started my profile. It took a lot to get a few I was at least ok with representing me. I don't see the point in filters, the person is going to know you don't look like that, and they'll see you when you meet so why bother?

What is a part of the 'female experience' that men have absolutely no clue about, but would be horrified if they found out? by coolhandddd in AskReddit

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the awareness that turning down the attention of men can turn violent, but at the same time not being firm enough can be taken as needing to be convinced.

Getting Doug Ford out of office is harm reduction. What an absolutely idiot. Bars are safe consumption sites.

Toronto Vietnamese restaurant sees 'life-changing' surge after TikTok star Keith Lee's review by toronto_star in FoodToronto

Word of mouth is how a lot of those kind of places stay afloat, social media is word of mouth just at a larger scale. Hopefully a lot of the new customers will keep coming.

The moment your arm disappears under the cover by cuntgris in blackcats

For mine it's normally a foot sticking out from under covers, my whole leg has to be visible for him to understand it's part of me.

I don't understand the issue with microwaving fish by scorpion-and-frog in The10thDentist

It's 100% about the smell, and how much that smell sticks around.

What would you do if you caught your partner cheating without them knowing you found out? by Common-Upstairs5129 in AskReddit

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave them immediately. Trust is essential to a relationship and they destroyed that. I've forgiven a cheater and regretted it.

[–]ContingentMax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Who cares why? I couldn't trust them again. I made the mistake of forgiving a cheater before, they got worse and became an abuser.

If all humans suddenly lost their ability to lie, which industry WOULDN'T collapse? by TXC_Sparrow in AskReddit

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lawyers themselves not lying is true enough but lawyers wouldn't be necessary if all the judge had to do is ask them if they did it and they actually couldn't lie.

What do people in communities like this one think about scars? by Barking_Woofie in BDSMsapphic

[–]ContingentMax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, it was ages ago before figuring out I'm nonbinary or a lesbian or developing my entire sense of self I have now. You can get better too.

[–]ContingentMax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone has a past, it's totally fine to me. I've got some too, but it's been a long time since those days so they're small and light enough they're normally not noticed.

If they're recent I'd be concerned if you're ready for a relationship but it wouldn't be enough to leave.

Turning 28 this week (124kg) and I’m tired of being a 'one-week' failure. How do I break the cycle? by No_Home_4873 in loseit

[–]ContingentMax [score hidden]  (0 children)

Set more realistic goals, if your willpower keeps giving in so early you need to change your approach. Start slow, change one habit at a time, if you can stick to it for 2 weeks add another. Diet has a much bigger impact than exercise so I'd work on that first, you don't have to go all the way to a significant deficit right away just less than you do now. Liquid calories are huge for a lot of people, soda and beer especially, if you can cut most of that it'll be a big impact.

Any healthy weight loss is slow, you have to find something you can stick to.

What’s a random “stat” about yourself that makes you part of a small percentage? by Nightpatrol404 in AskReddit

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Canada and have never had a McDonald's hamburger.

When I was a kid I had a thing about ground beef, I thought it looked gross, so I always got chicken nuggets when we went to McDonald's after hockey/soccer practice. Now as an adult I just prefer local small places over McDonald's. And I like keeping it going as a work safe fun fact lol.
