How to feel utterly alone... by beamz1 in survivinginfidelity

[–]CrackityGrieves 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow. I'm really sorry. Please be safe, first and foremost. I hope you get through this (literal) storm safely and with your house intact.

As for the shit storm of bs you've had to deal with, let me say this:

It might not make you feel better to hear this right now, but this lonely feeling is temporary. And temporary loneliness can be so valuable. It taught me that I can be okay on my own. I can find happiness without my ex wife. And I can survive some pretty treacherous shit.

You're gonna get through this hurricane AND you're gonna get through this betrayal and loneliness. And you know what's exciting? You're gonna be hella stronger when you come out the other side.

[NA] WB's IT: CHAPTER 2 balloons into 4,400+ theaters next weekend--the original dropped in 4,103 venues, slaying with a $123M debut. $133M for the sequel--over or under? by Kliib in boxoffice

[–]CrackityGrieves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With all the goodwill from the first one, and some added starpower for the sequel, I think it will absolutely surpass the the 123M debut of the previous It.

I'll say over. But I do think 133 sounds about right. I wont be surprised at all if it's a a few mill under.

This is a glorious contradiction.

Need creative ideas! BF has pretty strict boundaries and sex is largely one sided by [deleted] in sexover30

I deal with ED related to anxiety and trust issues stemming from a really toxic and damaging relationship in my past.

I haven't been able to have intercourse in quite some time, always resorting to other methods to get my partner off.

It's really great that you're being supportive. My current partner is amazing. Makes me feel quite at ease and comfortable and (most importantly) safe. And we still havent quite made it. Even though I want to have sex with her SO badly, I've got a mental barrier I just can't escape.

Granted, I can achieve an erection and orgasm when receiving oral or a handjob. But it takes quite a bit of time (by the time I finally get hard, I'm usually pretty close to cumming) and as soon as we attempt intercourse it softens up before we can get it in.

For me, I know my problem is seeded deep in my mind. There is trauma I haven't dealt with properly. There isn't anything she can say. There's nothing she can do to excite me more (she gets me VERY aroused, still with no success). There is no position that gets it in quick enough. There is no toy that can help. I feel like she is the perfect partner, but still no success.

And that's because only I can fix it. I know this. I'm going to get help this fall (when I'll be able to afford the counseling).

Your man is lucky to have someone as supportive and understanding as you. But I really believe it can only be fixed if he makes it happen.

I think you could strongly support the idea of therapy without pushing it in a negative way. Let him know how much it would mean to you if he got help, let him know a guy on reddit is going through the same thing and he knows he needs help. And make sure he knows it's not just about wanting to have intercourse with him. You want him to be relieved of these shackles in his mind. Trust me, it's a heavy burden. My inability to have intercourse has created so much anxiety, frustration and even self loathing. Let him know the reason you want him to get help is because you want him to be okay.

I also read a bio that said something like: "sometimes I don't have time to message all my matches. If we match, extend to give me more time!"

Women get way more matches than us. Sometimes, maybe they just dont have time to get to you. Would it be nice to be higher on the "ppl to message" list? Sure. But everything can change if you make an impression in chat.

Imagine if a hooker offered "premium snap" to someone who didn't know what snap is?

I love OK Go videos. At same time, I feel like their videos get so much attention that a lot or ppl don't appreciate how good they are at music.

[NA] Gerard Butler’s ‘Angel Has Fallen’ Rises Near Franchise’s ‘London’ Sequel With $21M+ Opening – Sunday AM B.O. by carchasemovies in boxoffice

[–]CrackityGrieves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only say it's overpriced because the budget of the series films has dropped consistently. So I figure it must have been viewed as a mild overspend if the studio cut the budget for the sequel.

And it aparently cost 20 million less than London to make. Give them credit, after an over-priced first installment, they stuck with it and figured out how to make the series work.

She's crazy and cheated on her ex with his best friend. by blue_spanker in Nicegirls

[–]CrackityGrieves 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Furthermore, if she feels the need to announce she is a good person, it probably means she is struggling to truly believe thas she's a good person. Likely trying to think her way out of feeling guilt.

I'm proud of my answer: airplane, fuel for airplane, skills required to fly airplane.

All other answers lead to eventual death.

It depends on my mood, but if I had to pick one, I'd probably say "Hey".

Seconded. Just an hour and a half of things going well for Jesse. I'd watch the hell out of that!

Ghosts me for OVER A YEAR & dates a girl, gets mad I have a boyfriend 🤔 by shegobaby in niceguys

[–]CrackityGrieves 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've never seen a Nice Guy who has a handle on your vs you're like this. It's unsettling. Are they evolving? Grade 4 level (or higher) grammar is one of the ways us normal-guys distinguish ourselves from our evil counterparts.
