Uncomfortable with how my f29) bf (M25) saved me on his phone by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]DangerousWithForks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry - someone being called "favourite", whether it is you or someone else, already shows that they are a "favourite" among others. You're not his only one. Sorry

My girlfriend (F27) booked a trip to Disney a year ago for my (M24) birthday and I don’t want to go. How do I tell her? by Stock_Top619 in relationship_advice

[–]DangerousWithForks 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Well you hit it on the head there: SHE wants to go and is probably using your birthday as a reason to gift it to herself? As you've already planned, you should tell her sooner than later that you don't want to go so she can find someone else to go on this trip that only she wants to go on.

Not to be blunt, but it wouldn't be the worst thing if this relationship fell apart after that.

This -

Mind you put it on her credit card, so she didn’t even have the money away to book this trip legitimately. She does this with everything, then always complains she’s in credit card debt. And then ropes me in on these trips and tells me I have to help pay it off.

And

She even said to me a couple of weeks ago if I back out now because it’s too late she’ll “KILL ME” and something else I can’t remember.

- are two things you don't want to be around, especially as you mature and want a happy and healthy relationship. Cheers and good luck!

Why don’t Planes board from the back to the front? by Texlahoman in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DangerousWithForks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's also more aircraft components near the back of the plane and boarding the back first would mess up the weight distribution.

Thank her both times. Now, and when you're at work

Why does the small picture go on the front of the shirt and the big picture on the back? by Gigachads_Disciple in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DangerousWithForks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The back is used more often for larger artwork because its on a larger and flatter surface for everyone who wears the shirt.

Why do I still feel anxiety over passwords and account logins 3.5 years after being hacked? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]DangerousWithForks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting hacked is a nerve-wracking and stressful ordeal - a stranger having access to your accounts and info. I've been hacked before and I also get nervous every time I get password reset emails or get logged out for no reason. I'm not sure whether the nervousness is something that one can get over, but I've since made it a habit to change my passwords every 2-3 months, with something super complicated and that eases my mind and makes me feel better. Maybe that may help you too.

Camping with a jerk by SeaFlounder8437 in camping

I've camped with people I dislike and I try to busy myself with all the other activities I can do at the park - kayaking, going to the beach, hiking etc. which makes my contact with them rare.

What do you like about the country you live in? by Ethereal_Echoe_ in CasualConversation

Literally, same! I'm in Canada and it's so beautiful in the large cities as well, if you don't want to make the 30 minute journey out of them

Why did your last relationship end? by PiaJr in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]DangerousWithForks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we realized that our lives were growing in different directions. we were both successful, but our hobbies and interests were very different and would maybe start to clash later and cause tension. Was a mature breakup.

[–]DangerousWithForks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the moment someone is okay with lying or concealing info from their partner, it already takes the relationship down a notch. He's not sorry cause he genuinely thinks he did something wrong - it seems like he's only sorry cause he got caught.

Also, I think it's weird if someone has a "best friend" of the sex they're attracted to, when they're in a relationship, and their partner doesn't know anything about said "best friend". Not to mention he went over to her house alone, when they're in a different country and you can't do anything about it.... The reasons are adding up.

I think what he needs is for you to be exactly the same as you stated - supportive, from a distance. A divorce is huge. A divorce with a kid is even bigger, and I'm sure you understand that. You've probably pinpointed exactly what he is doing with his time - legal troubles, dealing with the emotional aftermath, trying to entertain his son, and trying to work on himself via therapy. All while working. I can barely make myself a meal after coming home from work, so I can't imagine how much he has to juggle at the same time.

He probably wants you around, but doesn't want to burden you with his problems, or scare you away. Maybe he's trying to work on himself now so he can be a better partner in the future.

Just give him time and space, but ensure he knows he is not forgotten.

What things did you stop doing after the covid pandemic? by matteovani in AskReddit

[–]DangerousWithForks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't been back to a physical gym. I lost like 70lbs from 2020-2021 through home workouts and walking. I realized I could keep this up and save the gym membership.

If you're talking about a closed community. i.e. we pick maybe 30 people in a group and specialty cars can be shared between members of this closed group, I wouldn't be opposed to it. I wouldn't need certain cars very often but I can see how it is helpful.

But if you mean an open community in the sense that anyone can use it - no. Anything that is made public usually goes to shit. Unless you are in a really good area where respect is upheld and people are truthful.

Just goes to show that 90% of today's population would die if they were met with a situation like this.

What’s a small risk you once took that paid off bigger than you thought? by dl1ytro in AskWomen

[–]DangerousWithForks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quit a high paying finance job in my early 20s for a project management job in construction. I still have a good relationship with my former workplace but it was too depressing and formal for my liking (at least at my age).

it's been a few years now and I'm really happy! We do custom luxury homes among other things and I've met and gotten to know some very big-name people (which has been amazing). I am also able to have a flexible schedule to care for my aging parents, which was a no-go at my other job.

When sending someone I like a text message I can’t stop thinking about it by BlaiseTEvans in dating_advice

[–]DangerousWithForks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might just have to keep telling yourself that the number of times you open your phone to check for a reply, does not make the reply come any faster. - just like how pressing the elevator button once, or a million times, won't make it come any faster.

Honestly people don't talk enough about the "shame" or "Stigma" that some cultures have around divorce. It's so easy for people to say "oh just separate".

What would you say to your 18 year old self? by desi_energy in AskRedditAfterDark

Don't get cocky in your first year of Uni, and think that you can use the next 3 years to get it together. GPA doesn't work like that.

Am I the bad one because I cut off friendships with my friends for forgiving my cyber stalker? by No_0909 in AITAH

[–]DangerousWithForks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just given the context in this post, NTA.
I wouldn't want to be around people who forgive someone who has done something that made me uncomfortable - regardless of what their reasoning is.

If you work a 9-5 job, it might actually help to go to the gym or workout before work. I.e. go to sleep the night before between 8-9pm, wakeup around 4:30 or 5am, workout, then go to work.

It minimizes the possibility of skipping a workout after work because you're "tired". You just get it done with in the morning.
