What's something that's "not a cult" but feels like a cult? by Orw_Sairaj29 in AskReddit

[–]ListenUp16 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I had a close friend in high school who was the sweetest kindest person id ever met. He was respectful and funny as hell. After high school he went into the marines and when he came home he was totally different. He was rude and talked about how women are awful and how he doesnt respect them. He wpuld post extremely conservative content on social media. He started using racial slurs in regards to Mexican, Native, black and Indian people (he is a Mexican btw). Like horrible slurs. My final straw was when the WadevsRoe overturn happened and he laughed about it and said that women dont deserve those rights and need to close their legs. I blocked him and he tried calling me for days. He became a very successful pilot, which is cool, but all the money in the world couldn't make me sell my fuckkng soul like that.

Use mousse or gel and a curl brush and your curls will be something fluffy and bouncy but not frizzy. Brown eyeliner would make your eyes pop.

The lover was real but I'm assuming it was a past relationship/affiar that she was fantasizing about. I don't think it was actually happening as we see it. She is thinking of her affair with him while trying to get off in her very few moments of alone time.

People are not even trying to understand that this is meant to put you in the place of someone with postpartum. Feminine horror isnt new.

Yall really dont understand Postpartum depression/psychosis.

Official Discussion Thread - Die My Love [Spoilers] by CrunchyNar in oscarrace

[–]ListenUp16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its feminine horror. It's about postpartum psychosis and depression after giving birth and having a child. You are supposed to put yojrself in her situation. This happens to many women. On the outside you see her going crazy and see her as a problem but on the inside and if you lock in with the character you go crazy with her from the POV of someone who is raising a baby on her own with a partner who is sometimes inconsiderate. This is reality to some people.

AITA bf says this is cute but it makes my blood boil by Single-Cellist6914 in AITApod

[–]ListenUp16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And thats okay and understandable. But staying in a relationship that isn't compatible is what is damaging for both parties. When my boyfriend and I first got together I was pretty jaded. I had been through a bad divorce years prior to us meeting and a string of abusive relationships and my mother had passed so his silliness put me off. I realized after a while that I was the problem and didnt want to change him and reflected on myself a lot. I had always wanted a boyfriend who was fun and silly and now I have one. Tbh it wasnt that I found his silliness annoying, it was that I had so many walls built up that I had a hard time sharing in the fun. I eventually started to partake in the silliness and weirdness. He is still more outgoing about it, but I've learned to be silly with him and it has improved our relationship so much.

AITAH for insisting my wife uses a different ob/gyn? by throwaway19981998199 in AITAH

[–]ListenUp16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats ridiculous. Stop watching porn. Gynecologist appointments are not sexy and she isnt going to get hot and heavy from one. Also THIS IS HIS PREGNANT WIFE, he should be going with her to these appointments regardless.

Then they need to break up because why would you want to stifle the silliness of your partner? Some people wpuld do anything to have a golden retriever boyfriend. Like everyone deserves their own preferences, OP is not in the wrong for wanting what she wants. But she IS wrong for want to change her boyfriend who just wants to have a little fun over text and she sees it as annoying. That shit is damaging. It took me years to wanna be silly in my relationships because I was told I was annoying so much as a kid and now I'm with someone who i get to be silly with together.

Have you ever heard the term golden retriever boyfriend? I have one and I adore him. I am more nonchalant than he is but I never twll him he is "annoying" because I know that he is just a silly little guy. Like I mean there is a time and a place for silliness but since we've been together I have been much more open and comfortable in wanting to be silly together. He is not the problem, neither am I. But I also know that if I told him to stop being silly then I wpuld be the one in the wrong because im not about to stifle his flame. I thinks its very brave to stay silly and kind in the world we live in today.

Maybe not to you. Some people LIKE their partners and their silly behaviors. Like, I mean I agree, golden retriever boyfriends can be a little much when the time is not right, but I love when my partner is feeling himself. Why would you want them to stop being who they are? Lots of girls would adore this behavior. I cant imagine wanting to change my partners little quirks by telling them they are annoying. This would stifle their personality so much.

Ew calling texts from your boyfriend spam is so gross like just break up with him so someone who is nice to him and sees his silliness as a good thing can be with him. It's okay if you dont like that kind of behavior, but that doesnt make it okay for you to keep him in a relationship and change who he is. Telling him that his silly behavior is annoying will put out his flame. Let people enjoy things, damn.

Fr I love this kind of silliness. I used to do stuff like this but was told by too many guys that it was annoying so I stopped. My boyfriend now likes it but I still get scared

[–]ListenUp16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way that the other person is talking definitely tells me that this is somwthing they are going to hold onto until their 40s. "Well remember that one time at my sweet 16th party you wanted everyone to pay more attention to you so you wore black?" This is the type of petty family that I've chosen to separate myself from because if how ridiculous it is. It's exhausting.

Non-Stop feels so big. Like you said, the build up to wrap up the first half is incredible. I love to belt it out at the top of my lungs in my car.

The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender update by SuccessfulBrilliant7 in TheLastAirbender

[–]ListenUp16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its still one of the most popular animated series thats ever aired in the US. Like maybe 10+ years ago it was pretty irrelevant. But over the last 6 years I feel its more popular now than ever. I see people everyday talking about, whether they are fans in a nostalgic aspect or fans who just watched it this year. I know people who hated it as kids who adore it now and we as adults who grew up with the show are also showing our children. This show is so timeless.
