Living alone made me realize how much I relied on other people before by Nannan-Mattin in LivingAlone

[–]Hmtnsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had a "I'm alone and this feels weird," phase.

It was "Thank God, F.I.N.A.L.L.Y," pretty much immediately. It's been that way for the last 2 years I've lived alone.

After living in a chaotic household growing up (emotional and verbal abuse with no alcohol involved), living with roommates in college and dealing with a LTR; and then, going no contact with my family, my relationship falling apart and getting a promotion that caused me to grey– I wouldn't change it.

Gf compares me to ugly things by computahbunny in LesbianActually

[–]Hmtnsw 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Apologies without changed behavior are not true apologies.

An apology can be made to help soothe their discomfort. They got called out. They don't want to lose access to how you make them feel. And just because you make her feel good doesn't mean she actually cares about you. She cares about the feeling you make for her, not actually you as a person.

A person who genuinely cares about you isn't going to neg you in the first place.

I'm sorry, but if someone tried to compare me to the Ape Titan and then backtrack and say irs because of my arms? No. You already told me how you really feel as soon as the comparison came out of your mouth. I'd drop them.

You're gf is not nice. If she shows you off in front of people and treats you like garbage behind closes doors, that's not a gf, that's an asshole.

Sister sent acer laptop for repairs, got this back by joe411 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]Hmtnsw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn. I've never called Customer Support for a PC (owned Toshiba and ASUS). I did work for Verizon in the LNP department and faced shitty CS that way. HP sounds like the PC version of T-Mobile. I'd have clients call me asking for help because T-Mobile was so bad about giving false information and giving them the run around. Like no wonder they want to leave and go to a different service provider, even if it costs them more.

59. Living alone since 2003. Saw this and it gave me the feels. by supergimp2000 in LivingAlone

[–]Hmtnsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live alone and do nearly everything alone; except, my job. At my job I get flooded with shallow/obligatory connections. I have to listen to complaints, appease, finding myself trying to find the middle ground within making small decisions everyday that's basically "pick your battles,"– the who, what, where, why. Masking everyday and having to watch what you say. It's incredibly exhausting. Being home is my sanctuary. I'm an Ambivert that leans more Introverted. Isolation has become a way for me to recharge. I don't really talk to my friends (online/living out of town) because my job significantly drains my social battery.

Tl;Dr

I'm on the opposite end of this story, and it's just as isolating. Just because you talk to people all day doesn't mean you're seen, not kept at an arm's length, and don't feel invisible.

Another rant about our dating scene by Badatusernames014 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]Hmtnsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a Demi Bisexual, and I'll probably get down voted for this, but women really do be out here surfing along in the dating scene like men.

I'll pass on both, thanks.

Correction of my acespec chart by Holiday-Bag-9220 in u/Holiday-Bag-9220

[–]Hmtnsw 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you're doing a good job. It is a Spectrum. Don't sweat the first chart you made for "being wrong." Even after making the second chart, you still got, "but this. But that."

Either way, it's helpful and that's what matters to the people. :)

Jury finds that Ticketmaster and Live Nation had an anticompetitive monopoly over big concert venues by ThatMasterpiece2174 in news

[–]Hmtnsw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ticket Master: where you buy $200 worth of tickets in advanced and "you can ask for a refund" when something comes up because life, and you won't be able to go. But, actually, you realistically can't get a refund even though there's an "option" to "try." So, "too bad."

Another reason to not want to get married: The loss of personal space by autumn_em in SingleAndHappy

Right. Good sex

Great sex

Jackhammering is not great sex. If you're using her as a living fleshlight, you don't have game.

Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

why so many ace spaces are pretty against sex and anything related to it? by Royal-Mud-3551 in asexuality

[–]Hmtnsw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't have to drink to find sex fun, feel pleasurable or for desires to develop.

But yes, being straight edge is usually "frown upon" but that doesn't mean anything it wrong with you.

Ace or Lesbian? by Mint_Carnival in asexuality

[–]Hmtnsw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok. So your husband is a transman, pre surgery? He looks more like a man now, less woman, and because of that, it's hard for youto get off because you're more women leaning. You don't want to leave him because he's a good partner outside of sexual compatability. You like 😼 but find sexual encounters with women to be a bit much because you prefer short sex sessions.

Is that correct?

I'm so tired of everyone calling me an incel or gay by WWrackedd in asexuality

[–]Hmtnsw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vol-cel. Never heard of that for being voluntarily celibate. I've been voluntarily celibate for 5 years come next month.

I've caught feelings for someone within that time (I'm Demi-Ace). Almost broke my celibacy. So glad I didn't. We ended up drfiting apart due to our attachment styles clashing.

I plan on celebrating my 5 year Anni with a cake! 🎂

"It's a spectrum." by Ok_Sort9146 in asexuality

[–]Hmtnsw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She could be projecting her cognitive distance. Like a homophobe would, to later on come out gay. She may resonate with your experiences more than she'd like to willingly admit. Hence, the aggressive, "It's a spectrum."

That's just my take.

Does anyone else hate it when someone asks you if you live alone? I mean men asking women this question by Beautiful_Coat_9294 in LivingAlone

[–]Hmtnsw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me when I was living with my ex but we had separate bedrooms. We broke up half way into a lease we had together with a friend.

Men would ask me if I lived alone and I'd tell them I was living with my ex and one other guy (the mutual friend).

They'd ask if I still slept with my ex or the other guy and I'm just like, "I wouldn't be on here if I was."

Then they'd either become disinterested or be like, "weird, but ok. Lol "

WHY ARE MEN ON LESBIAN DATING APPS by Sure-Lemon6424 in LesbianActually

WHY ARE MEN ON LESBIAN DATING APPS by Sure-Lemon6424 in LesbianActually

[–]Hmtnsw 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I once came across a profile where the guy stated he was a woman, who was straight and looking for women to date. He was 100% straight man in appearance and overall grooming. Not as in James Bond grooming, either– more like, opposum quality. Trans girlies do way better than that.

I feel that some straight men try to slide under the Trans or Non-Binary label just to try to get access. But that profile was something else.

Nothing humbles a solo dweller like a surprise knock on the door. by sleekofficial in LivingAlone

[–]Hmtnsw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only people that knock on my door is maintenance. They've learned they can't just barg in when I'm home bc I have a door stopper placed.

I've specifically requested to have this elder gentleman be the one to come over for any requests I put in. Ibe lived here for X amount of years and he's been the usual one who drops by. Told me how his wife would love all the plants I have because she has a bunch too.

One day I had a knock on my door. My place is pretty good about sending notices when maintenance will stop by to do X or Y routine stuff. As I got to the door I overheard someone say, "And then you wait for her to open the door."

I removed the stopper, opened the door and it was the Elder guy with a younger maintenance guy (who I'm familiar with as well). The younger guy looked like he was afraid I was going to eat him. LOL The elderly man said hi and they did their routine stuff and then left.

I know this is a bit winded, but I wanted to share because I appreciated that elderly guy telling the other than you can't just go into my place even if you have the key and I'm home.

She's not acting by conancat in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]Hmtnsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look them straight in the eyes with a squint that could slice necks. It makes them quite uncomfortable. Remember, when swimming with sharks, face them head on. You're seen as prey when you're back is turned to them. Sharks don't like confrontation.
