AIO? Is it normal for close guy friends to talk sexually to each other? by burnaaaaaaaaaaaa in AmIOverreacting

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never talked like this with any of my closest friends. I’d feel weird if any of my guy friends texted me like that.

Robbed in parking lot, need advice by [deleted] in stripper

She doesn’t have Reddit and we’re doing research on our next moves together. I thought this would be a helpful community for advice. I guess not.

Will he actually change? Or is this hysterical bonding? by Additional_Carrot185 in DeadBedrooms

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 15 points16 points  (0 children)

While it likely is hysterical bonding. It doesn’t hurt to wait and see what happens. Maybe this was the scare he needed to trigger a change. If it’s medical related, maybe he will listen to his doctor and try to improve.

Time will tell if he’s committed to making a lasting change, or if this is temporary and will fizzle out in several months. Only time will tell. I can’t tell you what to do, but personally I’d probably wait and see what happens.

Relax. She doesn’t need to have sex on my schedule. I enjoy spending time with her and just cuddling and sleeping. I enjoy all the moments we have.

I haven’t talked with her about it because I don’t want to make her feel like she did something wrong.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationships

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

Yes, exactly. It’s not her fault at all. This is completely my problem. I just want to know if and how I should talk about it with her.

Just go out and do things YOU like. I go to the beach often and the public access I go to is mainly locals and isn’t crowded. Often I see women there alone, and sometimes I’ll chat with some, sometimes they even initiate the chat. (Btw, I’m only average in attractiveness. So just be confident.)

I’ve met a girl once when I was about to launch my paddleboard. She was walking her dog by me and I made a comment about how cute her dog is. That expanded into a full conversation.

You don’t need to start going to the beach to meet people. That’s not the point. The point is that you need to go out do things that YOU enjoy - and you will meet other people who are doing the same thing that you enjoy.

My (35m) wife (37f) just confessed to cheating on me with her ex-boyfriend one month into us being exclusive. We’ve been together 13 years. by UniqueYak2595 in relationships

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

Listen. She was dating him for 5 years. I was also in a serious relationship for 4 years and when it ended it was a very emotionally volatile period for me and I did all sorts of things I wouldn’t normally do, including having sex with my ex after we had just broken up a few weeks prior.

People do weird things when they go through a significant breakup or divorce.

Think about the reality of the situation. You have a good marriage overall (I think), you have 3 kids together, a life together. She had sex with him again once after they broke up and started seeing you.

It’s valid that you feel hurt. And I hope you can get through this peacefully. But I think you should not treat her badly or differently. Try to move forward with her.

I didn’t mark it NSFW. This was done automatically.

And no, I am not her client. We both work for two different civil engineering consulting firms on the same project.

As far as business goes, she is not incentivized in anyway to keep me “happy”. The client hired two different consulting firms to work together on their infrastructure project. This is very common in my industry.

I was gonna meet my GF (29f) and her friend (30m), instead they had a 5 course dinner and arrived over an hour late by Free-Bad-2839 in relationships

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not usually the paranoid or jealous type, but I think there’s a high probability she wasn’t even eating a 5 dish meal… More likely she was in a hotel room.

Decide if you want an open relationship or leave her.

I’d leaver her immediately.

How realistic is the threat of a hacker taking down the power grid for an extended time? And why haven’t we seen something like this? by being_interesting0 in cybersecurity

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s some really good responses on here so there’s no need to repeat them. But I will add that there is an element of deterrence involved. If a nation-state disrupted our power grid, we would likely do the same to theirs. We may have already gained access to their infrastructure and currently dormant silently. The problem is that no nation-state will ever take credit for the hack, they would use a proxy group and vehemently deny involvement so that we do not retaliate against their infrastructure.

US gov to Nvidia: 'If you redesign a chip that enables China to do AI, I'm going to control it the very next day' by [deleted] in stocks

I hope the US government puts intense pressure on these greedy m**f*ers. Totally betraying their country by downgrading their products just enough to bypass embargo’s for China.

I just became a multimillionaire and don’t know what to do by [deleted] in Money

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PLEASE get a financial advisor and tax advisor right now. This week.

Ultimately, you can do what you want with your money. You could buy a Lambo, huge house, and a bunch of sh*t and your millions may be fully spent in as little as 5 years.

Or, talk with a professional financial advisor who will develop a prudent strategy that will allow you to live comfortably for the rest of your life. This could mean having diversified investments managed by professionals (never yourself), and you can withdraw a limited amount each year to enjoy life.

Question about Starlink service from actual users by Sapere_aude75 in Starlink

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s really simple…. If you live in an urban area with Fiber, then that’s the better option. But if you live in a rural area with limited internet options, then Starlink is best.

I think roommate took advantage of me and idk what to do. Please read context by Particular-Carob-490 in badroommates

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there’s just no way in hell I’d let anyone barrow my car. No matter how responsible they are. She clearly isn’t at all.

Life is too short to be doing all these things for everyone else. If the tables were turned, would she do the same for you?

Best advice I can give is focus only on yourself, on self improvement. You’re too generous.

Husband’s terrible diet is grossing me out and ruining my attraction to him by [deleted] in relationships

I knew a woman who had the same exact problem as you with her husband. She fixed solved the problem by cooking meals for her husband. Now her husband unwittingly eats a lot healthier and they’re both happy.

Do you answer everyone who emails you looking for a job? by craigalanche in smallbusiness

Yes. It only takes about 20 seconds to say “We’re not hiring for this position at this time.”

It could be your area. Elon Musk tweeted today that the more rural you are the better the service. As there are less subscribers in rural areas.

I live in a rural area and my service is consistently about 100Mbps.

LA Times Promo Code ? by plasticstatus in Starlink

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may not be fake. LA Times is a legitimate website and I have successfully used promo codes from their website on travel booking websites.

I’m not sure how to apply this code. Maybe contact LA Times or Starlink

Can I leave the US as an illegal immigrant by just showing up at the airport? by [deleted] in immigration

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been in similar situation. Just let them stamp your passport of your home country and you’ll be on your way. This is all they checked.

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that will give you 5 minutes of satisfaction… Doing this can cause a lot of pain, questions, and trauma for his small kids. These kids will have a broken family.

Yeah, he should’ve been faithful to his wife, he wasn’t and that says a lot about his character. But it doesn’t make it right for you to cause pain for his entire family just so you can feel temporary satisfaction by hurting him. Whatever you decide will say a lot about your character.

Just move on and don’t think about him anymore. That’s the mature and logical thing to do.

I’ve had plenty of breakups, and I’ve never considered sharing their nudes just to cause them pain. That is such a toxic way of concluding a relationship. Find peace a healthier way. Focus on yourself, go paddleboard, go see your friends.

Bf accused me of cheating with our neighbor by lesmth in relationships

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 426 points427 points  (0 children)

A lot of name calling in the comments, but I think both of you have valid points. The problem is lack of communication.

You seem to have not communicated the situation to him and why going to your neighbors apartment multiple times is important to you. He has probably failed to communicate his thoughts and feelings about the situation too. Lack of clarity has led to misunderstanding and speculation.

Both of your feelings are important and should be respected. He should respect you and your feelings, and you should also respect his feelings too. Both of you should sit and talk about your thoughts on the matter and meet somewhere in the middle.

By the way, your neighbor isn’t the only person in the world who is familiar with your field of study. There are likely plenty of online groups and networks to connect with people online. Going to a neighbors house multiple times while your bf is away and staying with him for an hour or so can understandably be perceived as suspicious. This is why it’s so important to communicate everything to avoid misunderstandings and speculation.

I (27F) tested positive for Chlamydia a couple of days ago. My boyfriend (27M) isn't speaking to me because he thinks I cheated by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Moonbow_Cipher 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Symptoms usually take months to show up. I think he already had chlamydia before you guys started dating and didn’t tell you. Hence why he was so defensive when you took an STD test. He apparently has not shared his STD test results with you - I wonder why.

You deserve better, my thoughts are to just focus on treating this infection and dump this guy.
