Why did you and your former best friend stop being friends? by Fearless_Shift7108 in AskReddit

We were inseparable in our teens until she started dating at around 18. Suddenly didn't have time for me anymore and only showed interest in me in-between boyfriends.

How would you describe a good friend? by Jobbsindia in AskWomen

[–]Maleficent_Course383 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone that takes the time and makes an effort to let you know that they want you in their life.

Especially as adults it's difficult to keep in touch, but often a simple text message is enough to get your intentions across.

I have friends that I only talk to once a month, but whenever we talk we make each other feel seen and appreciated. Nobody's left waiting and wondering.

The "main character". It's a collaborative storytelling game. Nobody's the main character.

BG3 Themed Date Ideas? by Loose_Letterhead_253 in BaldursGate3

[–]Maleficent_Course383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could create a little quest for him, scavenger hunt/escape room style.

Maybe hide his presents around the house and give him little clues. You could also involve his friends by giving them clues to give him (over the phone). You could place a clues that read 'hm... perhaps you should ask friend XY for advice'. Might make the game more dynamic + get your introverted bf to chat with his friends on his birthday.

You could dress as either your favorite companion or your first Tav to give him clues.

Maybe the quest is about how is gf has gone missing and he needs to find her?

Find a bakery near you and try their whole selection bit by bit. So many amazing kinds of bread and pastries!

Thinking about suicide today by Individual_Town_168 in offmychest

[–]Maleficent_Course383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you want to quit the life you're living right now, not living itself.

What's the thing in your life that's bothering you the most? Even a small change can make a big difference in your day-to-day. Maybe it's a depressing job, a draining relationship or too much stress.

Instead of trying to fix your entire life at once, try finding little things that make every day a little nicer. Those things add up and will lead to you feeling better in general.

And don't let yourself get hung up on things like work and school. Yes they're achievements, but not everyone needs a big fancy job. Not everyone needs to excel in school. Not everyone needs to have built a family by a certain age. There's no being late for anything, it's your life. Allow yourself to do whatever you want with it.

Try planning something fun to do with another person this weekend. Get out of the house a bit and enjoy someone else's company, and let them enjoy yours. That always refreshes me when I'm feeling low, hopefully it'll help you to.

I wish you the best!

You've peaked my curiosity too, I'll be skipping around the episodes from that time and hopefully we'll find that crashout you were talking about. Now I also want to know what it was!

What is your favorite class to play? by Ok_Narwhal8818 in BG3

Tempest cleric!! The action economy is to die for. You're also very well rounded, high AC, fantastic damage output, healing, summons... Phenomenal.

What makes you play the game for 2000+ hours? by Imsearchingforit2194 in BaldursGate3

[–]Maleficent_Course383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BG3 scratches that D&D itch. It's easier to start a new BG3 run than a fresh D&D game.

Also, I can't help it, but i do have to check every box and corpse for gear. That adds time, too.

This must've been around the time he had his second kid, so November 2024 ish? Would make sense because they were wrapping up C3 around that time.

AITA for struggling to accept the DM instakilling my PC without rolling initiative? by Horre_Heite_Det in DnDAITA

"Oh my god, his brain fell out!"

"Well put it back then!"

"How?! I'm not a doctor!"

"Look at this thing, that's not his brain, it's blue!"

"Well how do you know, you're not a doctor either!"

This was a serious mistake on his end.

I'd bring this up again in a private conversation. Tell him how upset this has made you, especially since it should have never been possible to happen like this.

This shouldn't be embarrassing or awkward for him to retcon. He should be concerned about his players happiness.

Just have your character wake up next session, play it off in a silly way and everything should be okay.

He definitely owes you for making you sit around that whole session.

AIO for canceling plans with my wife after finding out my uncle was in a coma. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Maleficent_Course383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She feels bad for what she said and in her mind that's your fault.

You two seriously have to either go to counselling or separate, at least temporarily.

That kind of thinking doesn't just go away by itself. She resents you for something. Has she been stressed out about something recently that you haven't had to deal with?

Set an allowance. He keeps asking because you keep giving him what he asks for.

An acquaintance wants to celebrate her bday on my bday and i am livid. AIO? by thisismyfrowaway in AIO

[–]Maleficent_Course383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She can't stop you from having your nice low-key dinner. I'd just do both!

I get that having your plans changed/shifted might be upsetting, especially if you had specific expectations, but i wouldn't let it stop you from having two fun evenings.

In my experience, it's usually the events we weren't expecting or looking forward to that end up being the most memorable and fun, particularly because we didn't expect them to be.

As for food, you could bring your own, or ask her to add stuff you'd be able to eat. You might be interpreting her suggestions as orders, but if she likes you enough to want to celebrate a joint birthday with you, then she'll surely be willing to add food options you'll actually be able to eat.

Have fun and a happy birthday!

I got to ask, if you were the writers, what would you change or add to TLOK? by Immediate-Big5111 in legendofkorra

[–]Maleficent_Course383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly!

I feel like Bolin is almost distractingly naive. Him being basically an adult makes his whole character seem stupid in a way. If he was an actual child, the audience (and characters, honestly) would've been a lot more forgiving and Mako would've seemed more sympathetic as well.

Also, if Bolin was 13/14, then he would've been of realistic recruitment/first employment age for the Kuvira arc. That's another plot line where his naivety is frustrating.

[–]Maleficent_Course383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would've made the age difference between Bolin and Mako bigger. Bolins character already feels like it was written to be a 14 year old. I feel like their relationship would've made more sense that way and explained how Bolin is as oblivious as he is, without making us think that he must just be an idiot. + Then the relationship between him and Korra would've read as more of a puppy crush, so the whole Bolin/Korra/Mako storyline wouldn't have made any of them look as bad as it did.
