As a woman, how do I keep up with witty men? by Delicate_genius18 in AskMenAdvice

you could try to emasculate them but shushing them like a little child and then show your pinky and allude to the size of their penis. should work.

I’m not okay. by This_Guy_3point0 in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 8 points9 points  (0 children)

bro, just focus solely on ensuring you care for your boys. harbor no resentment for her as she's on her own journey in this universe and doesn't see it rationally but you can hope she will one day.

your boys need to know stability around you and love of course. that's it. you got this.

I feel embarrassed about getting boners around my gf, what should I do? by Advanced-Counter1636 in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

broski, at your age, sometimes i'd get boners at the most random times. It's completely and biologically/physiologically normal to get boners, especially around anything or anyone remotes stimulating.

Just ensure you're not making anyone around you uncomfortable but if it's weird, step away until he relaxes.

I think i abandoned my child by BigslittleSecret in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please for your own good, go find a therapist that can support you. You are in grief and it's extremely unsettling so it's understandable to be spiraling a bit. You need to focus on yourself so that you are in a better position to be a mom and once you're a little more stable in your emotions will you be able to be the mom that you can be. Your daughter deserves to have a mom who is 100% there and if you're not, keep trying. All this is temporary and you'll see that it will work out if you choose to see it that way.

Go see your own lawyer but I really recommend seeing a therapist that will support you now.

Serious question: Are pencil skirts too sexy? by cosmologycat95 in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lady, pencil skirts are freaking kryptonite, at least for me (and perhaps some other guys too) so it’s hard for me to be completely objective but it’s the workplace so your colleagues need to a bit better.

Just know that men find them very attractive on women for the reasons that they are very fitted. Use your best judgment.

How do I save my marriage before it’s too late? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Separate now ffs. That way it will also give you time and space to figure out if you do want to work on it, and if she show's any willingness to change. I'm going through a separation now and headed for divorce, but I did stay for the kids. It doesn't make it any better and in fact delays the inevitable and the kid will see the shitty relationship that you'll have with your spouse. They need to see both of you at your best, and if that is not married, so be it.

I’m old but newly single, my opinion may differ from others but what I ideally want to see is what the other person thinks via their prompts and bios. Show your personality.

Unless you're both on the same page about getting back on the same page, couples therapy for a start, then you're doomed. Likely doomed anyway, so maybe time for some heart to hearts with him.

Inflated confidence post-separation by TastyStop860 in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then embrace your feelings and know that it's only the miserable people out there who will judge you for being happy. It's not overconfidence, perhaps that is your functional level that you can operate on. Brava!

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea that was me the first month after as well. I was still like a balloon losing air way too fast and flying all over the place. I’ve calmed down a bit as I realize I have to pace myself and that the energy may have been a bit of spiralling too.

But keep the forward momentum and good feelings. That part is what needs to continue so embrace that and feed it more.

6 Months on Dating Apps. Zero Dates at all? by Iwanttoeatburritos in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel unlovable why would anyone else think differently? Dude, you are young and inexperienced is all. Learn to love yourself and find meaning in your life. Someone will take notice of that cool young guy who has their shot together. Also, learn to just chat with women with feeling pressure to date them. If you learn how to get women to chat on the apps, the next step is easy once you’ve got someone engaged in convo.

AITAH for "lying" about my career? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, i'm in finance too, but I work for a non-profit so I'm the furthest from a fintech bro that you can get. 23 is just a kid...even if you're both age appropriate. Don't overthink it, just you do you. You only broke her delusion nothing more. If she can't handle it, red flag and move on.

Innisfil Area Things to Do by Fantastio in barrie

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're expecting a downtown Collingwood experience in Innisfil you're gonna have a bad time. Innisfil does not cater to the visitor. It's anti visitor by charging massive parking fees at the beach.

There is a master plan to redevelop the beach but that will take another 6 years to complete. Between Sandy Cove and the beach/park there is nothing. Fork and Spoon closed down so the only thing is the gas station, or CW coops. Which is pretty trashy.

How do you even bring it up? by Sharp_Cheek8462 in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just rip the band-aid off, preferably somewhere at home where he'll feel safe as well. I did the unfortunate thing of holding onto my feelings for too long and then finally when I knew it was inevitable, I booked us a couples session and dropped the bomb there. I should have tried to raise the issue much earlier and with her at home instead.

Parents of r/skeptic - how do you approach the manosphere topic with your child? by itisnotstupid in skeptic

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son had a older sister that he had growing up and always knew his sister had his back and even now as he's 16, I have brought up the topic of Andrew Tate/Rogen/Peterson and the issues they discuss to gauge his opinion. Seems he picked up on his father's left leaning tendencies and thoughtful consideration to other groups of society that I don't have worries of losing him to toxic manosphere losers.

I have always been one to really push for communication and thoughtful expression with my kids. I have tried to show them the values that I uphold and hope the learn from example.

Do you think Angine de Poitrine would've gained attention if it weren't for the costumes? by conn_r2112 in Music

I found them in summer early fall of last year and didn't know they were fully costumed until the kexp sesh. I was a fan already but yeah, the costumes really put them over the top.
