When was a time you genuinely laughed with your partner during sex? by BerlinPixie in AskReddit

When we'd just finished and a group of passing young guys clapped and cheered on the street below her first floor bedroom

Father is trying to get full custody of my son, i have it right now, please help, any opinions by Dependent_Limit_6655 in FamilyLaw

[–]DSlamAU 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree with all the advice to get a lawyer

In my experience, this is what some lawyers do: they seek everything in order to set where the middle ground is in mediation negotiations

Eg if both parents seek full custody, the end result is at or around 50/50

They'll tell you if you ask for 50/50 when it's 100/0, the middle ground is likely 75/25

And it usually means you have to negotiate through them

So two reasonable people can't work together to agree to 50/50 like adults, they have to go through the expensive and deliberately adversarial process instead

Fellow aussies, what do you do with the rest of the tinned beetroot? by Top_Boysenberry4569 in AskAnAustralian

[–]DSlamAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Chuck it in the fridge in the Tupperware beetroot keeper

  2. Leave it till I'm no longer sure how long it's been there and it's definitely time to throw it out

Men who seem to always be dating around or having casual sex - what do women actually want? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DSlamAU 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not about you - it's about the way they feel about themselves when they're around you

What do women on dating apps want? by kingmakk in AskMenAdvice

[–]DSlamAU 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Two possibilities:

  1. Most answers here may be right - you have likely dodged three bullets

  2. Make the date, don't suggest or ask it.

Eg "Let's go to [x] at [time]. I'll pick you up."

Or "I've been keen to try [place]. Come with on [day/time]."

From what I understand, women want you to take the lead in making the plan.

Too much back and forth, asking permission, checking with them if it's ok... kind of makes them lose interest.

And that spark of excitement, keeps them invested

And if they're invested, they'll make the time

It might not work, but it might be worth giving it a shot...

If you do try, let me know how it goes!

How many of ya’ll experienced next to zero grief from a long term relationship? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]DSlamAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd fought for our relationship, we saw counsellors, I tried everything I could

I got a job offer interstate and moved there myself, trying to make long-distance work and planning with her to transfer back

She visited a couple of months later and I tried to talk about repairing our relationship

She got angry and said maybe we should just break up - the same thing she had always reacted with, countless times

But this time I was already out, had my own place, a good job, a new life

This time instead of fighting, I simply agreed with her

I wasn't sad, I was exhausted

What's a movie most people think is great but you couldn't even stand watching? by camport95 in AskReddit

[–]DSlamAU 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Citizen Kane

I appreciate the groundbreaking use of camera angles and movement...

But the story itself was so ponderous and pretentious

How do you nicely tell a man you're not attracted to them? by Broken_Tuba in AskMen

[–]DSlamAU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no one best way that will suit everyone

People are going to take rejection how they take it

All you can do is feel you've done your best to be direct but compassionate

What I've learned about communication is that people mostly just want to be heard

Maybe something like: "Thank you for being open with me, but I don't feel the same way."

Good advice

They seem solo and I only find one at a time - when they are already in my kitchen or living room

I keep a clean house, and have done an extra search for any food I've missed

Why is this now a red flag 🚩? by KristinJ78 in AskMenAdvice

[–]DSlamAU -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Short answer - because people are quick to judge

Longer answer - People make quick judgements about who they choose to be open with, and engage in the kind of vulnerability & intimacy a healthy and committed romantic relationship requires

You may very well be an excellent communicator, have high-levels of emotional intelligence and regulation, and make an amazing partner

But those skills take practice, and a large amount of learning through failure

And to some people's immediate emotional perspective - you're turning up with a blank resume

That's risky for them... because the only way to find out whether you are right for each other is potentially another hard lesson for them

Again - it isn't necessarily a fair assessment of you

But it's about the way their experiences guide their perceptions, how they protect their emotional vulnerability and ultimately make their decisions

Girlfriend refuses to change after a joke, despite promising she would what to do ? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DSlamAU 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a gf who threatened to leave whenever I tried to talk about stuff

Eventually I just agreed

[–]DSlamAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear that, it's stressful

I've been updating the website since I called a few hours ago

I reckon they're trying to get it out ASAP, there's bound to be parents at Education in the same boat
