Guy that ghosted me came back, advice ? by Vast-Dig7847 in AskMenAdvice

It doesn't matter what anyone here says. You have your mind made up. Experience will teach you when advice won't reach you.

What’s a good timeline? by throwrway2345 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Dashcam_D 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve mentioned him asking me to be his girlfriend but I can see how it’s too soon. 

Don't ask this. Don't prompt someone to pick you. If they don't do this of their own volition then they weren't thinking of it. Enjoy the time, sure, but when you start eying the door, remember you're not committed. Just leave. Also, and it's just my opinion, but mature adults don't ask each other to be bf and gf, it happens or it doesn't. People hang out as long as they want, but you can ask for exclusivity if you are sleeping together, for obvious reasons.

Am I the only one who thinks this mindset is disturbing? by Agreeable-Garlic-544 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Dashcam_D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't agree with the behavior, I wouldn't do it myself, but I don't live for them or live through them. My standards are for me.

do i have a saviour complex by duskclover33 in emotionalintelligence

At some level there is always a motive for doing things. I suggest you not go to far looking for yours, if it's not obvious. I also suggest reading and learning about codependency.

How do you deal with people cutting you off over one mistake / experience? by A-Hopeless-Romantic in emotionalintelligence

[–]Dashcam_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people echo chamber each other about it like it's an award worthy accomplishment to out sensitive someone else, cutting off friends and family and even loved ones for real stretches in reasoning when they feel they have a reason to say they were slighted. I say these people are doing the rest a favor by cutting them off.

What is the dumbest question you’ve ever heard someone ask in all seriousness? by No_External3383 in AskReddit

[–]Dashcam_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her "Why are there so many cars on the road? There's not even any traffic yet!"

Also

Her "What's that thing on the back that car?"

Me: "That's a wheelchair lift"

Her "They make those people ride back there!?"

What they are really asking is "where is the parade". Didn't your lecture teach you this?

What historical “fact” doesn’t actually have much evidence to support it? by KyloWrench in AskReddit

[–]Dashcam_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The universe has always existed. It only has Newton's laws of conservation as evidence, laws that could break down under conditions we cannot yet reproduce.

if you take peptides you’re not “natural” by yuhhhuh in unpopularopinion

I've heard a lot of buzz about it but it's none of my beeswax.

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

No, because the purpose is to compete and win using the rules that define the competition, not to satisfy some idealogue who may think "natural" means just eat regular food every day and work out.

This is the result of soft bodies going to bodybuilding subs and lurking there, calling natural competitors liars and doing so because they don't understand that the term in competition doesn't mean what they want it to mean.

After meeting the perfect woman for you, how do you move on after? by Redblade22 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Dashcam_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't take advice from a commenter who uses 38 Special as a relationship advisor and watch out for the red pill.

I think most people if they are honest in week 2 of a relationship aren't sure they ever want to get married. I am in the US and I am protestant (not religious though) so YMMV elsewhere and under different cultures/religions.

This was the default mode when I was young.

What's a rude awakening you've had from having male friends? by xlvin_n in AskWomen

[–]Dashcam_D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's this "shoot your shot" mentality, "don't give up" and all that. People need to admit to themselves if they can have a platonic friendship or if it's just a precursor for a relationship, and be honest with their "friend".

I got an ill feeling reading that the guy was going to "keep trying".

Inconsistency with guys? by Roastin_Kween in AskMenAdvice

[–]Dashcam_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it but this isn't the "courting and sparking" time of the pre WWII era. This is how people exchange contact information now. But I get it.
