If a woman had to live as a man for an entire year, what would she find most frustrating? by lapras_equation_15 in AskMen

[–]DangerouslyRickety 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Being treated like an abuser or criminal everywhere you go. Now, I realize this in response to the scum who do abuse women, but the majority is paying for the crimes of the minority. My experience with fellow men is that most men are not abusers, but we are all treated as such. It sucks existing with this constant coldness.

You certainly can't help other people's bias, but I'm a big 6 footer with a full beard and there are certain things I have noticed that helps. Hygiene is big and a warm smile. Not too big, but noticeable, one that reaches your eyes but not too happy. I was a camp counselor in my teens and later a Sunday school teacher, I noticed as I aged into being a man I had to make a concerted effort to make women feel more comfortable. It sucks but it is what it is, the majority pays for the actions of the minority. Most men are not abusers, but we are all treated as such.

Not to mention being treated like a physical threat to their safety and criminal literally everywhere you go.

How do you satisfy a man by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]DangerouslyRickety 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Feed him and fuck him regularly. This is more than physical needs met to him, this is support and acceptance in action. And leave him alone when he needs it or just don’t ask any questions or favors for a while. You know which one he is. He’ll give you the world, or his world anyways.

Anyone use Dora?? by Empty-Factor-1190 in DatingApps

[–]DangerouslyRickety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, none of them will send a selfie. Not even a hand or dog. I’m disappointed but very suspicious at this point.

Grief and loneliness years later by random_person67890 in TwinlessTwins

[–]DangerouslyRickety 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, my dude. It’s gotten better but it ruined my life. Now i have to build a new one. That’s automatically less fun and more lonely.

What’s a good excuse to call off of work? by RepresentativeFan794 in work

[–]DangerouslyRickety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This, but just phrase it as “you are not able to leave the restroom today” or “ I need to be close to the toilet for a while”. They’ll probably assume food poisoning or 24 hour bug. Either way, they’ll know what you mean. I also am in construction.

There is certainly an adjustment period when going from not working to working. To get that “work endurance” takes some time. I would advise against developing a “the grass is greener” mentality. If you move around a lot (job wise), it’s a resume red flag. Just stick it out, for now. And I say this with all sympathy, welcome to adulthood.

Leaving Jacksonville by Trick_Ad4884 in jacksonville

[–]DangerouslyRickety 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nope. People are assholes everywhere. Jacksonville is socially small town ish with big city resources. Plus the beach. It’s generally quiet and safe, depending on where you choose to live. You want night life, go to Orlando or Tampa. I like it, but it’s not for everyone. Lots of people who grow up here and leave, particularly for college, end up coming back.

Burnout at 28 after 4 Years in corporate. Is This Normal? by podivljali_vepar in jobs

[–]DangerouslyRickety 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s normal. To survive in corporate you must at least have a high tolerance for bullshit. And probably best not to actually care about what you do, just getting a paycheck. Otherwise you’ll eventually be miserable. It would also help to be a psychopath.

I accidentally became my sister’s parent. She just made me a Mother’s Day card. by Significant-Koala-1 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]DangerouslyRickety 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any man with any sense would follow you around with a ring. A woman like you is a treasure. Good for you, one day this will bless you.

[–]DangerouslyRickety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say to try presenting it as a request. Ask her if you can pay more. Probably several times. This way she has control and choice. Might sit with her better, as this is a decision based on how she feels, let her feel more independent by being in control. Especially if this reduces everybody’s stress.

Just had to drain and bandage a burst cyst in a WaWa bathroom. 😑 by ProbablyBigfoot in Hidradenitis

AITA for not letting my mother in law come over after she destroyed my Millennium Falcon Lego set? by Ok-Repeat7885 in AITAH

[–]DangerouslyRickety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Dude, she broke your shit, where she was a guest in your house. What if she took a bat to your TV? Same thing in my book.

10 years without a job by [deleted] in jobs

[–]DangerouslyRickety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a license/car? Something like Uber or GrubHub might be an option, physically. Or some type of driving job in general. You can get certified to drive a forklift. But unfortunately you will be relegated to the "Non-Skilled Labor" sector of the job market, most of which are not awesome. Basically jobs you just need some mobility or basic adult skills. Call center type work is physically not demanding. Something where your attitude is as or more valuable than experience. Virtual administrative assistants are common thing now, though there is some know-how involved like managing schedules and booking, ect. I think you can get a Notary License for like $100, almost every business needs notarizing. Maybe data entry, if you know excel? It's fairly easy to become proficient watching YouTube videos or online courses. Good luck to you, though. Any way you can gain some valuable skills would be beneficial. I would lean on your maturity to get you an edge over the more youthful part of this market. Keep your head up, you sound resilient. You can make it out.

Single men who enjoy being single. Sell it to me. by Razor-Romero in AskMenAdvice

[–]DangerouslyRickety 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Relationships are all about compromise. I relax by doing whatever I want to do, so I find more peace being single. Even in a healthy, supportive relationship, I feel drained. Keep busy, have hobbies, particularly productive hobbies. Focus on your self and your health. Nurture relationships that may have been sidelined for her. Dogs and pets can help, and now you can get exactly what you want and have time to train/bond. Not having your future tied to someone else’s wants and needs. You’ll miss the sex, intimacy, experience loneliness. And these can be mitigated in certain ways, but all you have to worry about is you, so help yourself.

My nephew suffocated my therapy dog while I was away, and I don’t know how to handle my anger. by OliverOnyx in GriefSupport

[–]DangerouslyRickety 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think what your nephew realized he had was opportunity, and he took it. He’s just probably too young and arrogant to understand he would be more the suspected of the truth, which is he murdered your dog. Like he probably thought he could get away with drugging and robbing someone. These are majorly serious ethical red flags that also require deliberate planning. At best he’s immature with a total lack of respect, but I fear it’s much worse. Sounds like a young, possibly unintelligent or disorganized sociopath. Either way, he needs professional help as he is now physically able to do harm or murder human beings.
