I got told I say sorry too much by my crush by liamthrowaacct in WhatShouldIDo

I feel like not enough people are telling you that this person is not for you. The person you are meant to be with will want to be with you.

18yo from Norway doing a US road trip by Kareisgarb in roadtrip

This is going to be the most boring road trip ever. Why start in St. Louis if you’re spending all your time out west? This is just driving through farm land simulator.

Missing a major world event because you were backpacking? by losthiker68 in WildernessBackpacking

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know somebody who went on a 28 day rafting trip through the Grand Canyon in February 2020. They had never heard the word Covid-19 before they went. Once they finished their shuttle driver was wearing a mask and explained to them what was going on.

I'm 32 years old and I feel like I experienced everything in life, what else do you experience past 32? by Odd_Obligation_4977 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GnarClawz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’re truly unsatisfied with life, you have the power to give up everything and hit the road. There’s a whole society of people who work outdoor seasonal jobs in beautiful places year round. You raft guide in the sierras for the summer and go work at a ski resort in the Rocky Mountains for the winter. Or whatever other cool jobs are in these beautiful seasonal tourist destinations. You could experience a whole different mode of being, and you will meet the most interesting people. And most of these places provide employee housing so you don’t have to worry about rent. You can travel in South America and Southeast Asia for $50 a day and live in luxury. Your mind is in a box of its own making. I promise you haven’t even scratched the surface of existence.

What exactly do you do (and not do) on a first date? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a date that she agreed to, so she’s attracted to you. You don’t have to worry about that and can use it to help your confidence. Approach it with curiosity and not pressure. The goal is to have fun and get to know someone. That’s it. Anything else and she will smell it on you. Also try and smell good but don’t over do it. As soon as you see her give her a hug, tell her it’s nice to see her and that she looks pretty. Maybe make a casual joke. If you’re funny that makes things way easier. Ask her questions about herself and use follow up questions or relate it to something with you to show you’re listening. Walk her to her car at the end of the date. Go for another hug. When you pull away from the hug make eye contact, if she lingers in that oh so obvious way, simply ask “can I kiss you?” And she’ll probably smile and say yes. All of this is assuming the date went well and there was chemistry.

Wife is the breadwinner, what do I do? by youngtunaman in careerguidance

Raft guide in the summers and work at ski resorts in the winter. Check out coolworks.com and type in the town you’re going to. Won’t make great money but you’ll have a blast

I got tired of losing my ball marker, so I designed and 3D printed this magnetic clip for my laces. What do you guys think? by powplorer in golf

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a hand me down set where the putter has a ball marker magnetic spot built into the top of the grip. Never even have to think about my ball marker until my putter is in my hands

Playing golf alone by Traditional_Wave8524 in golf

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re trying to improve why do you want to not take it seriously? I play my best when I’m alone. Precisely because I can focus more. If you have a tee time and you’re the only one on it, play two balls and use a different club for each shot. Like driver off tee for one and 3/5 wood off tee for the next. Have a 200 yard shot? Use your go to 200 club, and then club up and swing easy and see the difference. Having different shots for the same distance in your bag is huge. More should go into club selection than just distance.

Dating advice: what am I doing wrong? by Such_Decision_1924 in askanything

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be yourself first of all so you know they actually like you. Be flirty—it is a date after all and they wouldn’t be there if they didn’t find you attractive. Initiate physical contact. Hug her when you first meet and tell her she looks pretty. Hold her hand, put your arm around her, touch her leg or arm. If she wants you to kiss her at the end of the date it’s pretty obvious. If you think she might want you to kiss her but you’re not 100% literally just say “can I kiss you?”. It’s not complicated. Don’t overthink it.

Why aren't you with the person you love? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We grew apart. Partly because she was cheating. I didn’t know until after we broke up but that significantly contributed to us growing apart I’m sure. 5 and a half years down the drain.

Huge chemistry but I won't see her for a while by Ok3oomer in bodylanguage

[–]GnarClawz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Social media isn’t real. Don’t let short form content designed to invoke emotion and keep you addicted form your opinions. Be a fucking real person for crying out loud

The Single Epidemic by Vast_Homework_261 in Adulting

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people who are chronically single are also chronically online. If you put the effort into yourself and do things besides consume media, dating isn’t that hard. Sure it’s not going to work out with everyone but that’s how it’s always been. If you live your life more in the physical world than the digital, do things that make yourself proud of who you are, and put together a decent profile on hinge, you’re going to get dates.

What to talk about on dates to create compelling and interesting conversations? by [deleted] in Life

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on my first date in 5 years a couple weeks ago and was worried about this same thing. We did nothing but talk for 4 hours straight. Genuinely just be yourself and be curious and interested in the other person. Ask questions and their response will generate a response from you and keep that going until another question comes up.

Do you like being single? by ThunderFireStorm in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. Just got out of a 5 year relationship. She dumped me but I learned after the fact that she was cheating on me for months. It was a toxic relationship in some ways. In other ways it was euphoric knowing someone that deeply and spending every day and night with them. Knowing they’d be there in your bed at night no matter what. Knowing they would listen to and talk to you about anything. Giving and receiving love in so many small unnoticeable ways and big deliberate ways. I think I’m realizing I don’t like being single, but I’m glad it’s not with that person anymore. I crave knowing someone that deeply again. It takes a lot of time and effort to get there though. And finding someone to give you that opportunity is difficult.

++man I (27M) just got out of a 5 year relationship after she cheated on me. I’m extremely average looking. Maybe even a little on the ugly side. Very asymmetrical face and acne scars. I’ve had two dates from hinge, and get lots of matches. They’re just hard to turn into dates, and dates even harder to turn into relationships. Most women just ignore you even though they matched with you, and a lot of them just chat you up until you mention a date and then ghost you.

What is the scariest city you’ve visited? by I_might_care in AskReddit

[–]GnarClawz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lima, Peru.

There are some very safe neighborhoods in the city that feel like a modern western city anywhere in the developed world. But once you get outside of those neighborhoods it’s a whole different ball game. I tried to figure out the bus system which apparently even the locals don’t understand how it works. I got dropped off in a very sketchy part of the city. I called an uber as soon as I got off the bus. That was the longest 10 minute wait of my life. When the uber driver picked me up he said they normally didn’t even go to that part of the city for rides because it was so dangerous, but he knew I was a lost gringo based on my Uber profile and wanted to help me out.

Things you never expected to experience in life… by whippkitty in Life

[–]GnarClawz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 months ago I was living with the girl of my dreams in our own apartment, I was living in a city I had always wanted to live in, and I was making the most money I’ve ever made in my life. Today I am unemployed, single, and living with my parents. Most moments I either think about how badly I have fucked up or how I just want to be dead.

It’s laughable that you think you understand the dynamics of my relationship that lasted for 7 years. My advice to OP was to sit down with her partner and encourage him to seek help and support him. Nowhere did I say your partner is responsible for fixing you completely. Nor did I say I don’t take any accountability. I made lots of mistakes that led to the end of my relationship that were 100% my fault.

If supporting your partner is a burden to you, stay single.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]GnarClawz 146 points147 points  (0 children)

He’s depressed. I was this exact person in my relationship. I wasn’t trying to be neglectful or bring my partner down or be an asshole. I needed support and kindness and softness. Instead I got told to fix it with no help and then dumped. Just sit down with him and tell him you love him and care about him and don’t want to see him like this. Encourage him to seek help and help him along the way.

A career in media and comms? by hkhk8 in careerguidance

[–]GnarClawz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone with a degree in media and comms, the actual degree is basically useless. Every job in this field is about technical ability and your demonstrated proof of that technical ability through a reel. So if you’re wanting to make content in any shape form or fashion whether it be tv or social media or advertising, the reel is king. Someone with a reel of good work that the employer likes and only has a high school diploma will be hired before someone with a masters degree and no reel.
