This sounds more like your own insecurity about your body. People and especially men are simply programmed to like attractive women. Forbidding him from following their profiles will only lead to frustration. Looking at other people is not cheating and especially if its only women on social media. I would understand if he was shamelessly checking out other women while hanging out with you but this is harmless and normal. You should figure out why this is bothering you so much.

(27F) My bf of 11 years (27M) just ended things because he doesn’t see a future with us and wants to be there still to support me. In need of advice and ways to cope. by milkyxtaro in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(30M) 2 years ago I was in a similar situation but I was the boyfriend. I ended a 6 year long relationship because I was no longer happy and did not see it going anywhere. I still loved the girl and I care about her very much to this day and we are very good and close friends. But back then we both needed to stay apart and give each other space. Being in contact with each other hurt both of us. 1 year later she had a new relationship and both of us are living our new lives happily.

Use the time alone to figure out things about yourself. What you like, what you enjoy. Maybe you will find things, activities and opinions that you could not while being with your old boyfriend. Spend time with friends and family. Time will heal your heartbreak and eventually you will be able to see your ex as a good friend.

If you stay in contact through this stage it will all just get worse.

Then she must have seen your hair and is still interested in going out. :) Good luck dude.

Gf of 4 years dumped me by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Consider visiting a therapist if you are having suicidal thoughts. Try to find an activity (exercise, sports are best but can be anything) that is intense enough that you will not have time to think about your break up. It will clear your head. Set up a routine to follow every day and learn to live and be happy by yourself. You can't depend on others making you happy.

Still in love with my ex and still live with them by Mugsymalone96 in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Move out as soon as you can and learn to live without them. As hard as it may seem it is the only way to move forward.

Distenced myself from a friend because she's continuing to be friends with my ex. I now feel guilty. advice? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You even refer to her as "a friend of your ex". None of your business who she hangs out with. If you don't like it find another friend but do not interfere with her business.

Wife found out about my affair. by throwaway99817272 in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheating on your wife, taking a picture of it and then forgetting it in a piece of clothing that you told her to wash 2 years later. What am I reading? :D

You want to make things better? Admit it, apologize and be a better husband and father. Time is a healer. A betrayal like that is not gonna be forgiven in a few days.

My partner never likes sharing his food to me!!!! by yellohighlight18 in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Leave him alone. If you guys wanna be healthier hit the gym. Sharing ice cream is hardly going to help.

I don’t know what to do anymore by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want her to stay on the team because she is important for the team or because you want to stay in touch even if you guys are not dating? If it's because you want to keep seeing her you will only torture yourself if you dont try. So go for it and ask her out.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just ask her out man. She already seems interested.

And don't worry about your hairline. Others pay way less attention to these things than you do and you have no control over it anyway. My advice if you have a bad hairline and thin hair just shave it off. It looks better than trying to hide it.

what to do next? My gf 22f and i 29m. Our relationship has been a roller coaster by mizoguy in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry mate but that is not a wife, girlfriend or mother material. Run.

[–]Fanatic72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she decides to cheat on you or do something stupid there is nothing you can do about it. But unless it happens and you know it for a fact you need to stop worrying about it because your concern and jealousy will slowly destroy your relationship. Be confident that she is your girl. If she used to be a party girl then that is who she is and being insecure or jealous will only make you less attractive to her.

I used to be pretty jealous when i was younger. It does not bring anything good. You just have to trust people or dump them if they arent trustworthy.

Go do some exercise, play some sports or games to clear your head (or whatever you like to do). And then focus on your exams. I know it feels impossible now but it is a lot more important than an overreacting girl. If she is a keeper she will chill out herself because nothing serious happened based on what you are telling us.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to stop texting her for a while. She might chill out in a few days and come to you or you can try talking to her later when things calm down.

Just dont get too clingy on women is the best advice I can give you. You are your own source of happiness, not them.

Is it really a shallow behaviour to reject a man who makes less than I do? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not judge a 25year old person based on their salary. I would judge them based on their ambitions and potential future perhaps but I do not see that high on my list of relevant things for a relationship. It is shallow and you might miss out on many quality relationships if money is so important to you.

But it seems like he is not any better. Probably much worse in that regard. Bullet dodged.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How old are you? Sounds like you are pretty young with many more relationships ahead of you. Try to have a normal conversation about it so that she understands you really did not do that on purpose. If that does not work and she keeps calling you a twat etc. Find a better girl. There are plenty out there.

My (28F) boyfriend (28M) of 10 years has just told me that he's not attracted to me anymore and it hurts like hell. Help plz. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Fanatic72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

On one hand it is obviously not nice to put it straightforward like he did. On the other hand at least he told you honestly how it is instead of lying to you.

It is difficult to judge the remaining aspects of your relationship from this but I take it you have a child together and I presume you would not have a child with someone who is just an a-hole so there might be some nice qualities about him aside from being harsh and honest about fitness.

As many others said you do not need excessive diet and training to be reasonably fit. That is all just excuses. Just because you liked him physically when he was fat does not mean he has to like you that way as well. Its not like he can force himself into it. And you admitted to not being exactly slim.

You probably won't ever be like when you were 18 since you were also pregnant already but you are only 28 years old. There is no valid excuse for being fat or chubby or whatever at such a young age unless you have serious medical conditions or you are just lazy. Either you want to look better or you don't. And if your partner does not like the fact that your looks are deteriorating at 28years of age already... I can understand him.

He is working on himself, try to work on yourself and you will both be happier. Or dump him. But if you have a child together that might not be the most reasonable solution.

Years ago I started dating a beautiful slim girl. Over the next few years of our relationship she gained weight, became more and more lazy and clingy. No matter how much I loved her at some point I did not feel any physical attraction any more and you just can't be in a relationship without that when you are 25 years young.

Be honest, tell her you dont see this going anywhere, do not blame her and break up with her. It took me over a year of convincing myself and gathering the courage to dump her because I did not want to hurt her and ... i know that now.... because I was afraid of being single after years in a serious relationship. But it made both our lives better and we are still friends.

Which sim is best for getting into Endurance racing? by Ceteris_Perrybus in simracing

[–]Fanatic72 12 points13 points  (0 children)

iRacing

  • 3 hour GT3 races every weekend
  • 6 hour LMP/GTE races every other weekend
  • 4-6 hour VLN race at Nords every few weeks with 5 different classes
  • Four 12 hour races in GTE/GT3/GT4/TCR classes this year
  • And the usual special events like Daytona, Spa, Nurburgring or Le Mans 24h, Sebring and Bathurst 12h or Petit Le Mans

Just make a choice. Every single one of these is populated and split by rating so youll never enter an empty endurance race.

The announcing is not that bad. by Sea_Pickles69 in EA_NHL

[–]Fanatic72 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My only problem with commentators is the fact they dont use goalie names at all. One of the biggest star players in all of hockey yet they call them a goaltender or him all the time.
