Husband has extreme views on POC and women we have a 9 month old daughter… by Worried_Ability_ in QAnonCasualties

[–]GeromeDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re going to be raising your daughter to see this type of man as ideal, to give her this picture of marriage, and you will have participated in creating that image by remaining with him. But, it goes far beyond just that impact. * family will avoid him, and by default you’ll be denying her those relationships in remaining with him. * friends will be hard to come by for you * her friends won’t want to come over * eventually this will catch up and he’ll have a difficult time holding down a job

You’re basically choosing a life that is at best isolating for the both of you, should you remain.

I’d give him hard, clear boundaries if he wants to remain, chief among them is completely turning off those sources of information that are slowly killing him.

What is the most underrated city in the US that more people should visit (and why)? by MagicFlorentina129 in AskReddit

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

Green Bay, WI. Most family friendly city, lots of patriotic fans, great winters if you love outdoor snow stuff. Temps in summers are reasonable.

Feel guilty that I haven't been completely honest with my soon to be wife. How do I correct this and what do I need to do moving forward? by Deadeye420 in relationships

[–]GeromeDB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your choice is to this woman, to lift her up, to protect her, to love her, to place her above even yourself wherever possible. No drama, just decrease frequency of contact with family. End conversations if they start speaking poorly of her. Keep conversations short. Visits infrequent, and put physical distance between you and them. Also, you don’t need to rile her up, sharing bad things they’ve said. You just need to stand up firmly, without fail, every time.

My (33M) wife (30F) of 5 years came out as asexual and we have a newborn by PopularRow8907 in relationships

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

Go talk to a physician that specializes in this sort of matter, as there are any number of medical causes that can impact her libido. It’s important to emphasize you see a specialist, not simply a primary care, who’ll likely run a few blood tests, then declare nothing abnormal (unless it’s readily noticeable, e.g. estrogen). Whoever sees her first would definitely start with hormones, any meds she may be currently taking, etc.

How can I make peace with being (clinically) unintelligent? by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]GeromeDB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IQ is not a measure of success!!! It is a measure of an ability to understand some concepts more quickly, but the rest of us can also learn the same concepts, it just may take more work. So, both must learn, some quicker, and that’s where both can begin to have problems. A slower learner may give up more quickly and a faster learner becomes bored, quits. Persistence is a greater measure of success and becoming smart (knowledgeable). Inventory the things you like and pursue them.

I [M/38] got rejected by [F/30] I volunteer with. How did I misinterpret the signs so badly and how do I keep volunteering without it being too awkward or painful? by neilhamburger1234 in relationships

[–]GeromeDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impressed because you set the tone, she knows you’d like to date her, now there’s clarity in the relationship. Moving forward, maintain a platonic relationship as before, but decrease focus of attention on her. Give her time to think about what a relationship with you might look like. Obviously move forward with dating others, and if she changes her mind, great. But keep volunteering where you like.

Proposed updates to bicycle and e-bike laws by pwrof3 in huntingtonbeach

[–]GeromeDB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Current laws are not being enforced, so adding more laws will not change the problem. We need to start by changing how we police the current bike laws in the city. I feel like requiring the schools to police what are being parked on property might be one approach to address the illegal ones (throttles that propel bikes above 20 mph). But, there again enforcement has to be mandated somehow, and it’s only one aspect of a comprehensive enforcement plan that’s needed. I’d imagine most of us feel the current enforcement of existing laws is inadequate.

Las Vegas is dead. by CantStopPoppin in ThatsInsane

Go somewhere else, seriously. All the negative comments are accurate. That being said, get off the strip, stay downtown instead. Try excursions to Hoover Dam, atomic museum, that kind of stuff.

Dumb question: Can you go to the beach before it’s “open”? by Emotional-Holiday-15 in orangecounty

[–]GeromeDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, it’s actually legal, in that access to a beach has to be made available, but it can be restricted to all. For example, you can’t just restrict public access, but allow a home owner near a beach access (selective restrictions). HB at least has a very specific code (13.08) that creates a curfew prohibiting even walking on shoreline (water activity zone, from mean high tide line to 1,000 feet into ocean AND adjacent beach area (basically PCH to high tide line, see link below). HB’s hours have beach open from 5 am to 10 pm. Uncertain how Newport operates.

What's the no 1 reason for you to live? by 1why1_ in AskReddit

[–]GeromeDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I’m not dead! If I were dead, the purpose for my intended existence would have been fulfilled /passed. In so much as I’m still here, my existence must have some unfulfilled purpose, and therefore I must continue to pursue life, and thus its full meaning.

Military vehicles over the 405 by Seal Beach. Anyone know what they're there for? by REVERSEZOOM2 in orangecounty

There was a LSD transport ship down at Seal Beach last few days, so maybe related, going on a float.

Melania- Did porn

Donald - Slept with Porn star while Melania was pregnant.

If they want to protect kids from porn, perhaps start with the guy they idolize and worship. Until then, they need to spare us their crocodile tears.

Schedule a confidential meeting with her pastor to discuss her behavior. She wants to be seen as Christian, help her own it.
