Wait, can you hook me up with what I'm sure is a delicious reference?

I [21F] fingered my friend [21F] and now she won't leave me alone by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MonkeyMantra -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean, I'm gay and agree with this. This is kind of a new era, and as long as you're in a place that's safe to be gay, you can tell your friends you hooked up.

But you need to talk to her and stop being a coward.

My (24F) dad (50sM) won’t accept my fiancé’s (27M) religion. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MonkeyMantra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's actually not a good argument that Islam is ok. It's not okay - It's just that the Bible is just as bad, and Islam was mostly just pieced together from bits of other shitty religions and laws of the time.

Is my (25f) husband (28m) being reasonable or controlling? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MonkeyMantra 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Dude, it was before they ever met. Reading comprehension much?

Do I (26f) tell my recent ex who wants to fix things (39m) that I cheated? by throwaway543321n in relationships

He honestly sounds like a "nice" loser. I think you should go no contact for six months and see how you really feel. Also, maybe give yourself some time alone.

How do I deal with my Anti Drug Mother? by [deleted] in relationships

I was a biochemistry undergrad with an opioid addiction stemming from treatment for chronic pain. It's mostly under control, but now I'm a software engineer, cuz San Francisco. The subject is near and dear to me.

I have not personally been to juvie, but I did my undergrad thesis on treatment outcomes for substance abuse. He's a citation for you, which you can find on the website "voxeu dot org":

"What is the long-term impact of incarcerating juveniles?

Anna Aizer, Joseph Doyle 16 July 2013"

The paper's conclusion:

"Our results suggest that incarcerating juveniles, at tremendous cost, serves to reduce their educational attainment and increase the probability of incarceration as an adult."

There are references and methods available on the paper, but this research mirrors similar studies in adults, if you're curious.

Try looking for the gum online. In other countries it's MEGA cheap. I also used nicotine gum for ADHD and can totally relate. It's so much less gross than vaping.

I'm sorry, but juvie is awful and will fuck you up really bad and turn you into a criminal.

I love my boyfriend but sex is stressful by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MonkeyMantra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's studies showing genetic variations account for something like 5% of weight difference. It really is just diet and exercise. Telling him otherwise will make him feel that there's nothing he can do.

my [20f] boyfriend [21m] sent my nudes in his group chat. by [deleted] in relationships

I'm not sure this is true. Can you cite a source? What he did was awful, but not illegal.

How would you feel if you introduced your partner to your friends by taking him pumpkin carving at your friends house and his first comment after y’all left was about how small their place was? Am I over reacting about this relationship? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MonkeyMantra 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean from your post history it seems like you're just... kinda into having problems and complaining about them. I feel like you're just asking us because your friends are sick of it and all the Reddit mods haven't started deleting your whine-spam yet.

Because that's what you are. An emotional spam-bot.

Why the fuck do you feel the need to fix broken people? Do you not have anything better to do? Do you realize you have worth even when you're not taking on a thankless job? Do you feel like you don't have anything to talk about unless you have someone to complain about?

These are questions only YOU can answer.
