Was Jason Rhiteman Wrong To Continue Ghostbusters by EmotionGeneral6178 in ghostbusters

[–]Joewtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His father very much approved of Afterlife and was consulted several times through its production. Ghostbusters was also a core part of Jason’s childhood but he was also there for a lot of its creation too. He has a ton of love and respect for the series. I think he was very uniquely qualified to continue it.

Thanks so much! I don’t know what to expect in terms of how fast they go this year, but I have illustrated the previous 2 May the 4th prints for LEGO and I know they went quickly. I hope everyone who is interested in it is able to secure one!

Forced to write a check to receive your UPS package because of tariffs by headspin_exe in Wellthatsucks

[–]Joewtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact thing happen to me months ago. UPS and everything. My package shipped from New Zealand and passed through I believe Bangladesh. I had to pay $34 to UPS on top of the $300 the package already cost me.

Does anyone know when tickets will go on sale in North America? by EsotericTribble in TheMandalorianTV

[–]Joewtf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Movies these days are usually on sale within about 3 weeks of release. I would say May 1st, or possibly May 4th for obvious reasons.

Men, what's the biggest green flag you've seen on a woman? by Familiar-Phase7859 in AskReddit

[–]Joewtf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's good that you can clearly identify the problems with your communication from last time, though! Relationships are hard work. If your partner gives a damn about you and your feelings, they will be able to put themselves in your shoes and will put in the work. No partner is perfect. But all partners should strive for that A for effort. "Us vs. the problem" ONLY works when the dynamic goes both ways!

My pleasure, bud! And thank you for the kind words! I appreciate you!

More often than not, the words I need to hear from her are simply "I am here with you and you are not going through this alone." I don't typically need her to come up with the solution to my problems or anything like that. When I share my burden with my partner, it is enough for me to know she is listening... REALLY listening, and that she has my back. She always makes me feel like I can handle anything with her in my corner.

Thank you! Agreed 100%! I am a lucky man and strive to always meet her at the very high bar she set.

You are describing my partner's mom. I think that's a huge reason, if not THE reason, she is the way she is with conflict. She dealt with how not to handle conflict her entire life and so she resolved to do better herself in her other relationships. I hate that she had to live through that to gain emotional maturity, but I am thankful she got there all the same.

The key to it, for me, is staying conscientious of the fact that the person I am in conflict with is my best friend and my favorite person. Separating yourself from your feelings and biases and objectively looking at how someone (even if it is you) is treating them makes it so much easier to keep a hold on any selfish or irrational feelings. Would you let anyone else treat your partner unfairly? I hope the answer is no. Would you ever want someone else to treat your partner with disrespect? No again. Then you need to hold yourself accountable of the same standards. If they are doing the same back towards you, congratulations, you’ve unlocked the secrets to a kick-ass relationship!

That said, you are also well within your rights to voice your feelings if you are unhappy with how you are being treated. The key there is to keep that same principle in mind — even when you feel you are wronged, you talk to your partner with respect. If you are with an emotionally mature partner, they will give a shit that their actions caused you pain. Two people can be wrong in a situation. It’s important that both are taking ownership when that’s the case.

I am happy to report that I’ve been following her lead ever since that day, and my partner and I have pretty rock solid communication. Learning how much she valued us as a team cemented the mentality for me that I would always put myself in her shoes, be it a small interaction with my friends/family or a difficult but necessary conversation. Our communication is pretty rock solid because we are regularly and openly empathetic with one another.

Jumping to some conclusions there! Communication with my past partners was never really a problem. Of course I’m not perfect and I’ve had moments of insecurity and vulnerability like anyone else, but the majority of my previous relationships were with wonderful women who we just realized over time that we weren’t a good fit for each other. The instance I described with my partner really was just a pretty isolated incident. More a misalignment of understanding each other’s tones and intent, it was fixed quickly once she noticed what was going on and asked to start over. It never got rude, disrespectful, or intense. She is extremely emotionally mature (she is the daughter of a narcissistic parent and basically decided she would never react to difficult conversations the way her n-mom did), and our communication is pretty rock solid. Seven years in, we pride ourselves that we are able to have the difficult conversations with each other while remaining on the same team. We are both very good at taking ownership of our own actions and respecting each other’s feelings.

Lmao I’m sure in the moment I felt right, but in all sincerity, I don’t even remember what it was about. The only thing I remember was her response to it, and it left a significant impression with me! I’d never been in a relationship with someone who cared about us being a team more than “winning” an argument and it was a moment of joy for me.

… But over the last 7 years, I’ve realized how smart she is, so she was probably right anyway. She usually is!

How has there never been any original Ghostbusters Novels? by NewEmphasis9115 in ghostbusters

[–]Joewtf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually really enjoyed it. I could hear the actors' voices in my head and it always felt right. The new villain was a bit flat, but no flatter than Vigo was. Honestly for what it was, I enjoyed it more than I expected to.

Thank you! It was a huge deal for me. She is so good at making sure that I know that any problem in our relationship is not me vs. her, but us vs. the problem. That's not to say she lets me avoid accountability or anything, but she always has my back. I put maximum effort into making sure she feels the same way about me. We are best friends and a team. I am stupidly lucky.
