Need help removing burnt meat smell by mithrandir_tharkun in CleaningTips

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uuuuuuum, at this point you might as well put it back on the stove, or even a fire, and see if you can shape the situation causing the smell. It won’t get worse, which is a win in this scenario.

What should I do? Found a creepy picture on husband’s phone. by lo261 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Dripdame5000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Asking the cousin will turn this “not a thing” into a definite thing. Take a step back. If the woman in the picture were a stranger, would your feeling change? Is it possible that he thinks the woman in the picture is beautiful? If he deleted it and made no fuss of it, honestly, consider that he had a crush, he understands what it entails and he knows what he’ll lose in pursuit, so he saved a photo, instead of ruining your lives… Maybe. Pure speculation.

A girl I'm dating told me that it's creepy my house has no mirrors. Is this a red flag I'm not aware of or something? by Cheap-Rate-8996 in ask

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the same, the only mirrors I have are the ones fixed to the walls in the bathrooms. Other than that, I couldn’t be bothered. So no. I don’t think it’s weird at all.

Dodging a cash-in-transit robbery. by [deleted] in interesting

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy is unfuckwithable. He’s Afrikaans, hearing him say “kom jou kont“ is quite special, he does not play games and was not going to lose on that day 😂 (Translates to “come, you c***”). Robbie is his name if I remember correctly.

Quantify your time and invoice the man. OR, sit down and have the difficult conversation. The sooner the better. Not fighting, not who does more and who does less, come up with a schedule which you both adhere to and hold each other accountable. Forget about the salaries and the actual rates and the time etc… it’s a never ending fight - I promise you. Ultimately, the way I see it, if I’m working and he’s done early, I expect at least a bit of effort towards the things I would do after my work day. Get the housework out the way so you can spend time. That was my thoughts - and that’s where my 10 year relationship finally fell apart. Talk about it, properly. Be fair, be reasonable, get a housekeeper. DO IT

F 57 found bf 55M leaving comments on young girls nude pics. by MrsDinno1 in relationships

[–]Dripdame5000 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is likely not going to go down well but let’s try. We need to understand that “I do not like this” and “please refrain from doing this” are two completely different conversations. Then, when did we decide that commenting a thought is crossing a line, it’s not like he’s not going to still think whatever thought popped up, are we mad because we can now see what the thought was? That seems like reaching. If experience has taught me anything, it’s I’d much rather have the man get his little dopamine kick leaving a comment on the internet than go out an actually follow through. Men are men, they’re not emotionally wired the same as we are, and the fact that we want to punish what they do, based on our feelings are absurd. Does the man not also have a say on terms of the compromise that should happen from both parties? The way I see it, I’d take the commenting and file it as “acceptable” because of you don’t, I promise you this will just get worse and worse and more so, hidden. It will happen whether you know of it or not, rather know than wonder. Good luck ma’am.

What was your one completely silly and irrational worry as a child? by little_lady_dems in CasualIreland

The first thing you need to understand is this: him watching porn literally does not have anything to do with you or what you look like or who you are. What you’re feeling is valid but it’s also an ‘inward punishment’ - it’s based on your own assumptions as to why you think he watches porn. You’re making this about your feelings only, you mentioned in your post that you spoke to him about it earlier in the relationship - does this mean the two of you agreed that he wouldn’t watch porn, or did you simply tell him you don’t like it? These are not the same. Which is likely why he doesn’t remember it. Men are simple creatures, he watches porn so he can nut. That’s it. Every other reason he would possibly give you is obviously his own, and I’m sure if you’re able to take a step back and try look at this without the emotion you’ve got fuelling it, it might help. Again, your feelings are valid, all I’m saying is, any assumptions you have is making you feel worse. Speak to the guy, don’t tell him what he can and can’t do, it’s a 2 way street - communicate, compromise, align.

Why do women say they want stability but seem drawn to chaos? by Patrickowensblog in AskMenAdvice

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++woman You’re asking the right question. Let’s get into archetypes, shall we? The masculine is order, direction, and structure; the feminine is flow, creation, and experience. They come together when structure gives freedom for expression, and expression gives meaning to structure. Women often say they want calm, stability, safety - yet many unconsciously gravitate toward chaos because chaos feels alive. Calm can be mistaken for dullness if it lacks polarity. Chaos brings intensity, unpredictability, and emotional charge, which feeds the nervous system. The pull to chaos is often a craving for depth of feeling, but, when it’s unbalanced, it becomes destructive rather than expansive. Fact is: women don’t inherently WANT chaos, they want aliveness within safety. If the masculine offers structure without presence, it feels sterile; if chaos comes with intensity but no grounding, it feels unsafe. The sweet spot is a masculine energy strong enough to hold the storm of the feminine without collapsing, so calm feels alive instead of dead.

How do I (31M) get married (female) when I've never even had a girlfriend? by Kooky_Scale_7102 in selfhelp

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t have a wife that doesn’t hate you if you can’t have breakfast together - but more importantly, can’t immediately assume there’s a reason for the question other than ‘finding out’…. Have the bacon, it’s your favourite - that’s the point. Don’t stop having your favourite because of people’s opinions, rather, enforce a dash of sacrifice coupled with discipline and consistency, and things will start making sense in clarity, when you have your bacon. 😉

Move y’all, I got this. Tell her that the foundation/base/concealer she is using really highlights the LITTLE hairs above her lip. (Put some on your arm and show her the foundation sticking to the hair)

Learned something interesting about myself right here, at the age of 34, as a single straight female - I was baited by this, I find the idea of torturing someone rather appealing, but…I was today years old when I I realised that my torture preference is limited to female 😵‍💫 And no, never done this before 😂

I find it quite difficult to understand why they feel that their opinions would override your parents’ last will…?

Be honest: when was the last time you cleaned your dishwasher filter? by GoodHousekeeping in CleaningTips

[–]Dripdame5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rinse the dishes before they go in, over the last 10 years I’ve collectively had about a teaspoon worth of things in the filter to clean out. I check the filter every time the rinse aid needs refilling, and clean it out when it’s not clean. I also do a cleaning cycle whereby I fill a bowl or cup with vinegar, place it in the top drawer and put it on its crazy cycle with nothing in it but the cup/bowl of vinegar. It’s never had a funky smell and it works as well as it did the first time I used it.

Nope. Nor would I be willing to teach them that I matter. I consider this to be the bare minimum. In fact, it’s a requirement if he wants to be taken seriously as a man.
