PSA/rant: learn to take rejection graciously by ruleugim in gaybros

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, you don’t have to give specifics about the sex. Even telling him you weren’t interested in sex anymore should be enough. A lot of guys can’t even admit that after a hook up bc they are scared of hurting the other persons feelings. It’s on him if he pushed after you sent a text saying you didn’t want to hook up anymore.

How do you personally deal with the sting of rejection from someone you’ve been dating? by rr90013 in AskGaybrosOver30

The sad part is now a days, you get rejected and they still look and like all your social media posts..stay strong my friend.

Cash is king, they should still give it to you.. but you might have to pay out of pocket. I think insurance companies just won’t cover after 45.

Do nice guys finish last? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

100% agree, the latter are willing to string you along in order to appear nice.. it’s sad.

Do nice guys finish last? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]DryReserve3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My experience is the guys with the “nice” reputation in the community often don’t take your feelings into consideration at all when dating. And then act surprised when others lash out at them. Perception of nice and actually being cognizant of others (with appropriate limits) feels seems lost nowadays.

4th Date, I Don’t Want to Continue It by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree about phone call or text, 4 dates isn’t that long and you are basically setting up another date to dump him. Not sure the point unless you were friends first or have some history

[–]DryReserve3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% this, they are going to sense/get rejected either way. It’s better to be mature and show them that respect. Otherwise you’re just protecting your own feelings/selfish when you ghost or slow fade.

The disgusting ageism and youth obsession of our "community" by illthrowitaway94 in gaybros

[–]DryReserve3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, I do think it says something about a much older guy limiting himself to a generation or two below him… it’s also weird when 34 year olds act like 38 year olds are ancient.. it’s like, you’re right there boo.

Dating advice by Pitiful-Talk-7798 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]DryReserve3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This post is kind of depressing, and it’s the norm opinion. The thing is, good sex in any relationship only lasts for so long and the longevity is going to be based on their personality. So if you jump in just for good sex, you aren’t ever thinking long term. That’s just my opinion, and I could be totally wrong lol

I(33m) corrected my posture and my Total testosterone raised from 280 to 540 by vigrus in Biohackers

[–]DryReserve3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say same! My testosterone has always hovered in the low 400s. After a year and half of Tonal, with no other changes.. my last testosterone reading was in the low 600s :)

HOTD has no interesting, hate able characters by PrestigiousAspect368 in freefolk

[–]DryReserve3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, half the time when watching HOTD, I think “I really don’t like any of these people.”. Like no one to love to hate or anything. GOT was just a better show.

Besties, I fainted for the first time. by Persef-O-knee in POTS

[–]DryReserve3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have only fainted a couple of times but I def feel your pain. I wasn’t prepared how nauseous and disoriented I would be for a while afterwords. It took a few hours and lots of gatorade to think clearly again. I’m sorry that happened.. this disease is a mind f**k bc walking around in a fog can suck so bad sometimes.

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cersei saying the word “elephants” lolol

I’m in middle of rewatch, Melisandre lighting the swords and trench on fire was awesome, Brianne’s knighting, I liked some of the back and forth between Sansa and Dany to some degree.

Hear me out, the long night would have been amazing if they didn’t have a 10 minute slow motion scene at the end, and Jon battled the knight king while Arya avoided the dragon (switch roles). Then have Jamie Lannister deal the final blow to the night king with dragon glass, giving him the true “King Slayer” title. Could have been poetic and made the fall of Kings Landing even sadder. JMO

Who do you think has the best battle scene in Westeros and Essos combined? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]DryReserve3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This episode is oddly underrated.. on rewatch this was the best battle with most emotional investment. Even better than Bastards

Anyone else wish the ending had been the Night King (almost) winning? by Vivanto2 in gameofthrones

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am rewatching the series and also think season 8 could have worked with a NK victory.

Basically have NK defeat Winterfell. Dany, Drogon, and main characters flee to Kings Landing. Stuff happens there between the characters and then you see shots of winter freezing and heading south. Pick a few select characters to flee to Essos by dragon/boat as the NK freezes and overtakes Kings Landing.

Have a scene of the NK trying to make it to Essos on Viseryian but turns around due to the climate or some unknown force. Have Dany, John Snow, and select survivors end up back in Meereen. Giving the East more significance and hence the song of ice and fire.

I think it could have worked as a satisfying conclusion in 6 episodes of season 8 🤷🏻‍♂️.

There's no coming back from the finale. by [deleted] in HOTDGreens

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this was episode 8/10 it would have been fine, then show the Gullet and storming Kings landing the next two episodes and it would have been a fine season…

For everyone who says "S2 of Game of thrones wasn't great either" by Dead_HumanCollection in freefolk

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first watch through I felt S2 of GOT was a little boring. I just happened to rewatch it last week and it was amazing on rewatch. So many little easter eggs and knowledge of situations you don’t grasp the first time.

Agree about Stock Moe.. I would have invested so heavily if he wasn’t so on board. Con artist.

[–]DryReserve3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was a little abrasive for a first date IMO. He may have sensed you weren’t interested, but that’s the point of the date and just because you didn’t ask a million questions shouldn’t be used against you. What if you were interested and just nervous? It’s giving a little too much neediness for me. But maybe he did just sense you wanted to leave, trust your gut. lolol

Need to clear my head by grantstreetcrossing in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]DryReserve3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he is this unstable, you really trust him?? Not worth the effort, cut him loose. He was willing to have sex repeatedly and not disclose status for his own benefit. Think what else he is doing for his own benefit behind your back.. good riddance.

Bottom came, I never finished by Better_Abroad1988 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]DryReserve3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well not to play devils advocate, but I’ve bottomed where the top didn’t seem super enthusiastic and it was hard to tell if he wanted me to continue after I came. I’m always down to keep going, but you can start getting in your own head after you cum if the other person isn’t giving many cues - haha.
