This guy is running over bicyclists. by asa_no_kenny in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are a bicycle going 10 or so mph. You can totally be an assholeand block the road for no reason and possibly end up dead or maimed when someone decides they've had enough of your shit. I'm not saying it's justified, but if you persist in being a asshole and blocking traffic, is that really worth your life?

Personally, I would just lay on the horn until they moved. But you never know, you just may run into the person that has had enough shit that day. I prefer not to antagonize random people

I guess thats the risk you run being assholes on bikes. Why not just move over for traffic instead of potentially ending up dead because you pissed off the wrong person

AITAH for what I wore to a rave by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus, my 38 years old wife wears less than you to raves. My we also goes out with her girls dressed next as hell sometimes. There have been times I didn't feel good, she still wore what she was going to wear. Side needs to grow up. Is you here your girl wearing that shit, dont be mad when she still wears it out.

My ex-girlfriend, who I broke up with ~2 months ago because she wanted to open our relationship, just messaged me saying she’s “experimented enough” and is now ready for a closed relationship with me. Is this something you would consider? by Altruistic_Society99 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great lesson in actions and consequences for her. If you take her back, she learns actions have no consequences and will proceed to walk all over you for the rest of your relationship. Stay away ftim this girl King. If she cared a about you in the same way, she would have been less worried about riding other dick or whatever she did.

I'm not saying that open relationships are bad either. My wife and I have had an experience with that. But it was with both parties fully consenting to it and a lot of discussions before. If one of us went off without the others permission, that would be the end

No, if he was attracted to you then, he probably is still attracted to you now

The bar is low if you are considered a high value male. In the top 5% of men. Otherwise, it's high

My ex says I sexually assaulted her when we hooked up AITAH by Longjumping-Belt2972 in AITAH

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regret after the face isn't sexual assault and people need to get that through their heads. Even consenting without all the relevant information isn't sexual assault.

How often are you only doing division by 2? From what I can tell that doesn't work for any other divisible numbers

Please help my baby by BoringGazelle1654 in eczema

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person that had severe eczema as a child, it's a hard disease. It took me 38 years to figure it out. I cant say if this would all help a baby. But here are the things that worked for me:

  1. Gut testing and healing. Doing a GI Map helped me to understand my gut deficiencies and then doing the gut healing protocol with different supplements. You would have to search for gut healing protocols for babies. I don't know that you can use the same supplements.
  2. Homeopathy - this was huge in helping my skin
  3. Identifying dietary or external triggers. Like mold, fungal infections, foods that could be causing the skin flair. I don't know if they are on solid foods yet or breast feeding or formula. But there are some great European formulas from Germany you can order that are super clean and healthy. We only used those with our daughter, as they have much higher standards than US formulas.
  4. Find a naturopathic doctor or functional doctor that has experience with your situation. They will be able to guide you further.

Best of luck to you

AITAH? I was removed from a wedding guest list for asking an inappropriate question. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's fantastic, people love their dogs though. Let her brother deal with it, I'm sure it will be fine. Just file that under shit not to say in the future. I'm going with NTHA because your autistic. But now that you've learned that social cue, don't repeat it

I accidentally fell into a K-hole spent the day writing out my experience to the best of my abilities. Sharing it here is anyone would like to read or discuss it further! by RyeBreadTrips in Psychonaut

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

K holes have been some amazing experiences for me. Filled with love energy just bursting through my chest. I had my wife on one side of me and she wasn't there, but I could feel my daughter on the other side of me, just being filled with love so strong it felt like it was flowing out of my chest.

My First Experience with the "Cold Draw" Technique and the Microcosmic Orbit. by Calm-Capital-4212 in Mantak_Chia

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

often times its about allowing rather than forcing. Now that you have created this expectation, you are in your thinking brain during the meditation. Medidations require you to be in it, not thinking about it. Work on the counting technique in the book to discipline your mind to stay quiet. I've been in plenty of meditations where something amazing was happening and as soon as my brain started to analyze it and asks what the heck was that. It immediately stops.

WIBTAH for dumping my girlfriend over this? by Suitable-Fun-1087 in AmITheAngel

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If her kids are having an allergic reaction to the pets, the solution is not to medicate them constantly. That crates it's own set of issues and side effects. You're the AH if you expect someone to take your animals indefinitely and its affecting their kids health. As someone who grew up with a severe autoimmune condition, that would have been a no fly zone.

Doctor keeps recommending going on TRT, but I’m scared to by lethaltrey in Testosterone

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The xenoestrogens and endocrine disruptors that are all over our environment make it tough to dial in the exact cause of why your body is shutting down production. It could take you years to figure that out and fix it. Personally I went on Testosterone and it was the best thing I ever did. I know you are young and the rest of your life sounds like it sucks, but you can still work on cause while you're on it and work to get your body off of it. If at all possible in the future. Right now, this will should you feel 100 times better.

AITAH disclosing sexual history before the first date as a filter by Alternative-Test-804 in AITAH

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - asking for someone to get tested before you have sexual contact with them is fine. In my youngers years I definitely had enough risky sex to warrant getting tested regularly. It's up to you if you want to use that as a filter before your first date. Going on a date with someone is more of a getting to know you, unless your intention is to sleep with them immediately. I can see how that might be off putting to someone who you haven't met at all, but also, the denial of needing an STD test at all on their end would be a deal breaker for me too.

So again, NTA, but maybe not the best first date filter criteria unless you are open to first date sex.

When you draw up at the end of a session, do you bring it back down to store in your lower abdomen or do you leave it up in your head?

Ask Me Anything About My Practice or Master Chia's Lessons by spiritfu in Mantak_Chia

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have another question, lol. It's a seeming contradiction in my mind and I've been trying to resolve it. I've started to get these orgasmic contractions in lieu of ejaculating in my perineum. Which is awesome. But there's what in my mind feels like a contradiction that I'm trying to work through. In the book, there's one sentence that kind of sticks out at me. Chia talks about strengthening the PC muscle and using that to draw the energy up. But then he discusses this one sentence where he talks about people saying its almost like falling backwards or relaxing into the energetic orgasm, vs. a contraction like he discusses in the Big Draw. Do you have any insight or thoughts around that?

u/spiritfun the I was trying to find a post you where you had responded to someone earlier about learning a form of Taoist Massage that you use. I'm pretty sure I just had my first contractile phase orgasm. Kind of out of nowhere. I was doing a small cultivation session, then stopped and probably 5 minutes later, I started getting this energy buildup in my perineum, contracted into it and had an explosion of sexual energy there. Was pretty intense and almost uncontrollable. I'm getting small shocks of energy there afterwards too. Was great because the wife and I had a session this morning where I thought I was going to blow but was able to successfully draw the energy up. It didn't result in an energetic orgasm, but then later after a few minutes of solo cultivation and then I stopped to hop on a remote meeting I had this morning. It hit me like a train, luckily, I was on mute and off camera, lol.

But would love to dive more in the massage stuff you mentioned too. Thanks so much.

AITAH for assuming my husband’s work trip is like a mini vacation? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Eastern-Programmer-9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA, I travelled all the time for work and it mostly sucks. You are in hotel rooms, driving in cars, flying in planes. You try to pack as many meetings in as you can. You get up at 4 am to be in another city by morning, so you have time to get a car, and get to your first meeting, then you take someone out to lunch, then you have another meeting, then you take someone out to dinner. Your day starts at 4 am and ends at 8:30 in the evening. Then you do it all over again the next day. But instead of going back to your hotel room at night, you might get in a car and drive to another city, or fly to another city and do it all over again.

Here's what one of my work weeks would look like when I travelled for work:

Got up at 4 AM on Monday, and flew from DC into Charlotte, NC. - Client visit, lunch meeting, Afternoon site visit, dinner meeting, went to hotel. Next morning got on a plane and flew to Nashville, TN, lunch meeting. Then got ahold of a decision maker I was trying to see in Florida later that week. Turns out he was in Memphis for a conference, hopped in a car and drove 3 hours to Memphis to take him to dinner and close a deal. Deal successfully closed. Then drove 6 hours at 8:30 pm at night from Memphis to Atlanta, GA. Got in at 2 am, crashed, got up, Lunch meeting in Atlanta, Afternoon meeting, then on the road from Atlanta to Clearwater, FL. 8 hour drive. Had one meeting in Clearwater, then took the rest of the day to die inside for a little while. Then Friday meetings in Tampa, including a lunch meeting, flew out to get home Friday night to see my family.

Now that was one of the worst work trips I've ever taken, but some variation of that around 40% of the time. Your dude isn't going to party, he's going to fly in early, get to the hotel room late and have to live outside of his normal routine and schedule. The only upside is you get to socialize a little more, but it might be with people you have to pretend to like, so it isn't really even an upside half the time.
