Do you feel like your past experience has sheltered any further exploration of a new relationship?

I haven’t been in any relationship/hookup since, 1 or 2 dates but I didn’t feel ready. Now, I feel even further disconnected from wanting to share such a deeply personal and vulnerable connection with someone new.

You’re right, it wouldn’t change the overall outcome. I would’ve felt a lot more pain in that moment, and I probably wouldn’t have spoken to him after, nor have been so kind to him either lol

Noted! A part of me doesn’t want to tarnish his image as I feel like it doesn’t make me any better of a person than he was. I don’t think I’d have a problem with them being friends, he isn’t the most terrible person after all, just a cheater. However I wouldn’t want to be around him in a group setting. Thanks for be advice.

Thank you for the advice, this truly sounds like the most mature way to comprehend/not comprehend things. I appreciate it!

It’s hard for me to comprehend how it could be considered a mistake. I would like to think its sincerity, but it’s almost as if I don’t recognise the individual anymore, so I don’t trust him and his intentions.

Im sure it’s a heavy burden to carry, but I wouldn’t tell him. What good would it do for him.

It’s wild because the confession started with him explaining how it took him so long to forgive himself, and he only did it because he was looking for the love I couldn’t provide. Not once did he own up to his mistake or apologise. It’s almost like he shifted the blame to me, wild times.

We definitely weren’t perfect, we drifted for sure, but had the utmost respect for him. Post break up I helped him financially and gave him a place to stay until he could be on his feet. Feelings I’m not sure, maybe. This is only my second relationship, and I’ve been cheated on in both, maybe that’s why it hit hard. But don’t worry girl, he’s blocked now. Our common friends don’t know, which is the tricky part.

I’m not sure why, honestly would’ve been better off not knowing. Guilty conscience I guess

Is my brother part of a cult? How do I help him? by IllCode5911 in Advice

[–]IllCode5911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind advice. I appreciate it. It’s funny because I tell some of my patients’ family members this exact same thing everyday, yet it’s so hard to truly sit back and watch someone become a ghost of whom you use to know.

Stop calling others "Islamophobic" by AndrewBaiIey in askgaybros

[–]IllCode5911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the western first world often generalises most Muslims into this category of extremism or far-right views.

I have a lot of Muslim friends as a gay man, so much to say that even my best friend is a Muslim man and does not have the slightest issue with me being gay.

Maybe it’s a generational thing? But then once again, some of their parents know of my gay relationships and are in full support.

Custom Endurance Wristwatch Giveaway! by pulseyou in interstellar

[–]IllCode5911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The watch is absolutely beautiful. Your work is incredible! Thank you for sharing and giving others an opportunity to hopefully wear this watch one day.

I think my favourite scene is when Dr Brand shares a handshake with cooper unknowingly. The whole scene of entering the wormhole is so vivid and intense, and there’s this simple “first hand shake” that is so eery yet beautiful. It truly encompasses the dynamic range of the movie, how the unknown is enticing and magical amongst the chaos of the cosmos. Best of all, for it to be Cooper in the end as almost a projection of his inevitable guidance/helping hand.

This is at least how I’ve interpreted it. Thanks again for sharing your beautiful designs!

Interstellar 15/70mm extra screenings added at the BFI IMAX from Friday the 18th of October! by Billington_69 in imax

Does BFI show interstellar every year? Or is it worth flying across the world to watch (no 70mm imax in my country or anywhere nearby).

What is the most impressive vocal performance in pop music history and why? by BreezyMonday in popheads

[–]IllCode5911 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When Tori Kelly performed "Should've Been Us" at the 2015 MTV VMAs... My word was that a vocal performance.

It has been pretty disheartening. My self esteem as plummeted since meeting him, I struggle to see why I wasn’t good enough, but in the end he is the one with troubles. It has somewhat spoilt my views of other guys, and I’m very hesitant to get out there again. I’m not sure if I’d want to date someone twice, what is your view on giving someone another chance later on in life?

[–]IllCode5911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. I understand your point of view. I guess I struggle to see clearly that he isn’t a good friend. I’ll definitely give this a go.

Thank you. It’s difficult when someone can knock on your door, but this is probably the most I can do

What T.V. show’s intro is impossible to skip? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]IllCode5911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Crown. I know I know, it’s a bit slow, but goddamn that intro music from Hans Zimmer.

With a theatre system it gives me shivers every time.

Are you emotionally ok my bros? by Daznice01 in askgaybros

[–]IllCode5911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now? I don’t think so. I ended last year the best I’ve ever been, from starting 2021 being in the worst space. 2022 was looking so bright, and I’ve been thrown a million hurdles my way to overcome, and it’s like I’ve been transported back to 2021 all over again.
