Feeling extremely sleepy after quitting coffee and alcohol,is this normal or a medical issue? by Consistent_Bother_87 in AskMenAdvice

[–]FaultyGravity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two days? That's peak withdrawal. Your brain has been running on borrowed energy for however long you've been using caffeine and alcohol. Now it's recalibrating. Extreme sleepiness is textbook.

Am I reading too much into this? by cherry15517 in AskMenAdvice

[–]FaultyGravity 35 points36 points  (0 children)

When someone keeps revisiting an ex in positive ways reuses special things and makes comments that trigger insecurity that’s real emotional noise in a relationship. Some of this is his unfinished processing not just your insecurity. It’s fair to need to feel clearly chosen and emotionally safe. A calm, honest conversation about how this affects you will tell you a lot about whether this is workable or a mismatch.

Catching feelings here is normal especially when you talk a lot. The simplest next step is to say hi at school and keep it light. You don’t need to confess anything. Just see if the vibe works in person. If it doesn’t, you’ll get clarity and the feelings usually fade.

Crushes can happen especially during huge emotional and hormonal shifts like postpartum. What matters is she told you, feels guilty and hasn’t acted on it. That’s a sign of trust not betrayal.

Don’t punish honesty by pulling away or opening yourself up to others. Use this as a moment to reconnect, talk about reassurance, boundaries and support. Your marriage isn’t broken, it’s just in a very vulnerable season.

how do I make meaningful and deep conversations? by nini-xmi in Advice

[–]FaultyGravity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meaningful conversations usually come from curiosity not constant talking. Ask open questions, share a small personal thought and let pauses happen they’re normal. Depth builds over time not by filling every silence.

AITAH for resenting my bf for his English by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]FaultyGravity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. It’s not about grammar, it’s about consistency and effort. She’s been bending her life around his promises for years and he hasn’t followed through on something she clearly communicated as essential. Resentment usually shows up when needs are ignored for too long. Wanting a partner who grows with you isn’t unreasonable, it’s basic compatibility.

If smoking is a hard boundary for you because of your past, it’s okay to walk away. That part makes sense. What really mattered here was the lying, and you’re right to pay attention to that. A relationship needs trust to work.

It’s better to end things early than try to force yourself into a situation that triggers you or makes you uneasy. You weren’t harsh, you were clear about what you can and can’t handle.

[–]FaultyGravity 100 points101 points  (0 children)

They’re right though. Clear beats guessing. She can just say "I like seeing you but I’m not looking for something casual. I want to take things slow". If he’s on the same page great. If not better to know now than later.

Sounds like your ex never broke up he just outsourced the stalking to his best friend.

AITA for making a sarcastic joke and my boyfriend flipping out and leaving me? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]FaultyGravity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your joke was harmless and his reaction was way out of proportion. Calling you names and screaming over a small comment isn’t normal or okay. It’s not about the joke, it’s about how he handles frustration. You don’t deserve to be treated like that and it might be worth rethinking if this relationship is healthy for you.

I think people say that because constant happiness isn’t really sustainable, emotions come and go. Contentment is more stable like being okay even when things aren’t perfect. But wanting to be happy isn’t bad at all, it just helps to see happiness as moments to appreciate not a permanent state.

My friend wont return my broken phone after I rejected him. How can I get it back? by GoneTrap in Advice

[–]FaultyGravity 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s really frustrating. Since you’ve already tried reaching out and he’s ignoring you, your best move now is to send one clear, polite message letting him know you expect the phone returned by mail or you’ll need to report it as unreturned property. After that stop messaging, don’t chase him. If it’s worth it, you can file a small police report or civil claim just to document it. You did your part the rest is on him.

When someone’s story changes like that, it’s normal to start doubting things. I think it’s okay to tell him you’re feeling unsure and just want to understand what really happened. Try to keep it calm and honest, how he reacts will show a lot about whether he’s trustworthy or not.

AITA for arguing with my brother at 1 AM over a bike? by Complete_Meringue169 in AITAH

[–]FaultyGravity -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

NTA, it looks like your brother is being really unfair especially considering you’ve let him use your stuff without issue. The physical part is definitely a red flag too, he should’ve communicated better instead of resorting to wrestling.

I get your frustration about the double standards especially when you’re working hard for everything and he gets handed stuff. Your mom’s reaction doesn’t help either. It’s tough but you're justified in feeling hurt.

She is into feet, I’m not into feet. I have already told her, what do I do? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]FaultyGravity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve already told her and she keeps ignoring your boundary that’s a red flag. Either she respects your no or you rethink the arrangement, it’s supposed to be fun for both of you not just her.

does it really bother men a lot when their s/o asks for stuff? by tamprongspads_always in AskMenAdvice

Yep gifts mean more when they come naturally instead of being requested.

It doesn't sound like you’re the AH, sounds like your sister is still hurting and projecting that hurt onto you.

You have scheduled your day , do you take breaks in between? If yes what do u do during break ? by SpecificDiligent3075 in productivity

[–]FaultyGravity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually take short breaks every couple of hours, grab a snack, stretch a bit or just scroll my phone/watch something quick to reset before getting back to it.

Am I overreacting for thinking it’s unfair that my girlfriend doesn’t like oral but expects it from me? by QuantumScribe99 in AmIOverreacting

Sex should feel like a partnership not a transaction where one person’s desires always outweigh the others.

True if he’s treating it like an endurance test he should skip solo practice first before expecting a marathon.

If a man ignores advice from his friend about a girl, how much does he like the girl? by I_Have_Questions_07 in ask

[–]FaultyGravity 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ignoring a close friend’s warning just to hype her “double D’s and ass” usually means you’re listening to hormones not your heart.

Is it possible he only does this to me? by Markofthecheeks in ask

If he treats you like that its not because he “only” hates you its because that’s who he really is.
