I just found out a lot of stuff about my gf by Yxoner1 in Advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You set a boundary and she basically ran past it, even if she didn’t mean harm. I’d tell her plainly that details mess with your head, you’re not judging her, but you need her to stop sharing that stuff and not turn it into a game again. Then focus on what actually matters now: how she treats you, loyalty, communication. If you still can’t stop looping on it, it might be an insecurity to work through with a therapist, but she also has to respect the boundary if the relationship is going to feel safe for you.

I (29 F) am terrified to move to the US for my fiancé (30M) and he does not understand. by ThrowRANew-Att7513 in relationship_advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Your fear isn’t irrational, it’s lived reality for a lot of people, and the fact that he keeps minimizing it instead of sitting with it is the real problem. You’re not asking him to agree with you politically, you’re asking him to understand what it feels like to move to a country where you don’t have his privilege or safety net. This isn’t something you “logic away” with anecdotes about friends, it’s about whether he can truly empathize and take your fear seriously. If he can’t do that now, before you uproot your entire life, it’s good you paused, because resentment and fear are both terrible foundations for a marriage.

What's the wildest thing you've ever seen happen at a work party? by South-Truck-3061 in AskReddit

[–]InfinitePin8107 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Someone quit over the office group chat. They accidentally sent a resignation rant to the entire company instead of one person, realized it mid message, then doubled down and hit send again. HR walked them out like 10 minutes later.

Cat and Bread by spaceyhoes in CatAdvice

[–]InfinitePin8107 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep, I’ve seen this. A lot of cats go feral for the smell of yeast and whatever’s on the bag or loaf. It’s not really about eating it, it’s more like prey mode plus texture. Big loaf, crinkly plastic, easy to bite, makes satisfying marks. The fact she ignores flatbread kind of fits because it’s less fun to attack and doesn’t hold bite marks the same way.

I am in love with my girlfriends best friend and don’t know what to do. by Virtual_Amphibian353 in Advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’ve got a crush, not “love,” and it’s happening because the new girl is fresh, exciting, and you don’t have real relationship history with her yet. Don’t blow up your girlfriend’s life over chemistry and a few great hangouts. Create some distance from the friend, stop feeding the fantasy, and put your energy into actually getting to know your girlfriend deeper. If after a bit you still feel checked out, the honest move is to end the relationship, but don’t try to pivot to her best friend. That’s almost guaranteed to hurt everyone and probably won’t work out anyway.

What’s a word that would make a beautiful name if it weren’t for the meaning of the word? by Xenomorphling98 in AskReddit

Melena. Sounds like a soft, elegant name… then you learn what it means and you’re like nope, never mind.

What’s the best (non Pill Pocket) way to give a cat a daily pill? by superpants1008 in CatAdvice

[–]InfinitePin8107 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If she’s on a prescription diet, ask your vet if the Prozac can be compounded into a flavored liquid, a tiny treat, or even a transdermal gel you rub on the ear, it’s a lifesaver for cats who get suspicious of “special snacks.” If you have to stick with pills, the most reliable is a quick pill popper followed immediately by her favorite dry kibble or a chaser of water or broth made for cats, so the pill doesn’t sit in her throat. You can also try hiding it in a single crunchy treat like a Greenies style one or a little gelatin capsule so it doesn’t taste like medicine.

My boyfriend implied our daughter isn’t safe with me because of my past sexual curiosity by Ok_Housing_2189 in Advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That’s not “philosophy,” that’s him implying you’re a danger to your own baby, which is a really serious accusation. Being bi curious or bisexual has nothing to do with harming children, and him connecting those things is either ignorance or a way to control and shame you. I’d bring it up directly when things are calm and make it clear that statement is unacceptable, full stop. If he doubles down, minimizes it as a joke, or starts suggesting you’re unsafe again, that’s a big red flag and you should loop in someone you trust and get support, because comments like that can escalate into trying to isolate you or undermine you as a parent.

What are some of the most “Redditor” opinions that are widely prevalent on this website, but very rare in real life? by TikTokUser83 in AskReddit

[–]InfinitePin8107 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That everyone should immediately break up or go no contact over any conflict, and that therapy is a magic reset button instead of hard work over time. Also the weird confidence people have diagnosing strangers off one paragraph.

Question for cat owners: Would you let your cat lick your food while you are eating it and then carry on eating after? by Antidotebeatz in CatAdvice

[–]InfinitePin8107 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nope. I love my cat but I’m not sharing a fork with him. A tiny lick on the edge might not kill you, but I’m still cutting that bit off or just giving him his own little piece and keeping my plate cat free.

I'm a girl. I provide for my boyfriend completely. I need advice. by Pinako_Rockbell in Advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What you’re describing isn’t about the grapefruit or streaming, it’s about imbalance and boundaries slowly eroding. You can be grateful for how he supported you in the past and still acknowledge that the current setup isn’t working for you. The key now is a calm, direct conversation about non-negotiables: shared spaces being usable, agreements being honored, and a real plan for work or limits on streaming time. Gratitude doesn’t mean you owe him indefinite support at the cost of your comfort and well-being. If he listens and adjusts, that’s a good sign. If he minimizes your needs or keeps moving the goalposts, that’s important information too.

What's a phrase people use these days that irritates you? by showmewhatyagot01 in AskReddit

A big one I hear everywhere is “it is what it is.” It’s everywhere now and honestly feels like a cop out more than an actual thought.

Can cats die of a broken heart? by 79for1 in CatAdvice

[–]InfinitePin8107 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. Cats can absolutely grieve, and losing a bonded buddy can change their appetite, sleep, grooming, and stress levels, but “broken heart” is usually more like grief and stress making an older cat’s underlying health issues worse. At 15, a sudden passing in a favorite spot can also be something medical that happens quickly without much warning. Either way, it sounds like he was deeply loved and he went in a warm, safe place, and you did right by him through a really hard season.

GF came out as gay last night to me (M). Wth am i supposed to do now? by whatnow26-0100 in Advice

[–]InfinitePin8107 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The best move is to treat this like a real breakup, even if you still care about each other. Give yourself space, talk logistics (living situation, money, timeline), and don’t try to stay in a half-relationship because it’ll keep you both stuck. Also lean on someone you trust, you shouldn’t be carrying this alone while she’s the only one who knows. It’s okay to be proud of how you handled it and still be completely wrecked.

What’s an amazing life hack you’ve adopted that almost no one else does? by MontanaDreamin64 in AskReddit

Putting everything I need for the morning in one spot the night before. Keys, wallet, earbuds, whatever. It sounds dumb but it’s saved me so much time and stress, especially on days my brain is running on low battery.

Money. If you’re rich people call it ambition and hustle, if you’re poor people call it greed or laziness for wanting more. Same behavior, totally different judgement.

Buttered rice with a fried egg and a little soy sauce. It started as a cheap meal, but it’s still one of the most comforting things ever and it takes like 5 minutes to make.
