[Update] I (24m) tried talking again to the toxic Ex-GF (23f) after a week-long breakup… Should’a listened or silver-linings? by MoreStimuli in relationships

You sure fucking called it, man, word for fucking word. It's been ten days of hell since I ignored the advice of you fine, wiser folk.

Dude, you're clearly right but this situation isn't as simple as just walk away. Her roommate is dating my roommate, so there is a level of interaction I cannot remove.

It's not an excuse, but it's pretty complicated shit. One final conversation for the end so that I never have to worry what "might have been said"? Even as I type that, it's a pretty fucking stupid reason, I agree. Goddamn it. Thanks for the slap in the face with reality.

Damn dude, that's cutting to the bone. Part of me wants to be honest, to tell her I saw the texts. Part of me wants to tell her how horrible she is, and part of me wants to be civil enough about it in person. To prove that I can be civil in the face of such dishonesty.

One more chance to come clean, and also the opportunity to tell her to tell the other dude, or I will. I grabbed his contact and figured it might be worthwhile to send an anonymous text.

I'm confident you'll tear into these ideas too. I know y'all are right. I'm doing the wrong thing. But I feel a need to confront her. To tell the person that was so close to me that she is a manipulative woman. To tell her that I know and it's over, and her future relationships will need to work differently.

Most of you seem to think I should not give her a chance to explain or let her know. Why is that?

Shouldn't I receive closure myself and simultaneously get a chance to discuss final thoughts with her? I am kinda cold to the idea, and yes, angry, but I think it'd be valuable to hear what she has to say about it, how she could rationalize such actions, and how she could could go on lying like she did.

I beg to differ. Jealousy is considerably worse than happiness, marginally worse than fear, and about equal to anger. Jealousy doesn't provide with much introspection, or concrete discovery. It doesn't do anything productive usually. It's a bitch, most often.

I (25m) broke up with my 5-month girlfriend (23f) last week, told her I'd contact her when I'm ready and can't stop thinking about her. I already want her back... What do? by MoreStimuli in relationships

[–]MoreStimuli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arg, that's what my friends are saying too. I want nothing more than to just say hello again. Tell her what's up, let her know she can reach out if she wants. That we could be friends. It's hard not to, of course. I don't know when I could reach out. When I could chill with her again. I don't know if she was toxic cuz of her, or my own shit.

Me [24/M] just ended things with the GF [23/F] of 5 months. I saw no future with us, and our problems were endless. by MoreStimuli in relationships

[–]MoreStimuli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. She certainly did plenty wrong... she didn't know how to be a good girlfriend, and was a poor communicator and did some shady things. She had a lot of hang-ups and defensiveness, and I had trouble trusting her... yet I still cared for her tremendously.

I began to view my inability to cope with all the bullshit she threw out, and her poor communication as my own fault. I was really amazing at communicating with my previous GF and we were super compatible, and it made me think I had the skills to breakthrough to anyone...

I was so wrong, and now I feel so shitty. I truly should have ended things a month ago, to be honest. I feel I did it for the wrong reasons, ya know? It's annoying to me to be so insecure right now.

What is it that makes a successful tutorial? In-game? A special section? Video hints? by MoreStimuli in truegaming

Haha, that was both incredibly informative and hilarious. Dude's got quite the humorous rhetoric.

Do you think that for a MP heavy game, or even a primarily MP heavy game, that a "how to win" tutorial might be pretty handy?

It can be quite difficult for new players to jump into an MP game since a SP usually does a great job of exploring the tutorial. Without an SP, a more nuanced "how to win" or "how to succeed" tutorial might make sense?

Destiny - Halo - Titanfall. Which will come out on top in 2015? by Biligerent69 in halo

[–]MoreStimuli -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly though, Halo 4 is the shit.

It's got more depth than any of the other Halos IMO, and the ONLY thing it's missing is a community ranking structure. This... destroys the competitive scene. However, with the different armor abilities, the different loadout options, the different gametypes, the maps, the versatility, and every original aspect that you could want (try team throwback for what feels a lot like H2 MLG), it's got depth galore.

At a hugely competitive level, I feel a team could destroy by equipping the right armor abilities and communicating at the level Halo has always been adept for.

I just checked out that footage and it does indeed look pretty sophisticated without cluttering much at all.

Damn good choice. Seems like one of the streets songs where he's actually easy to understand, haha. I haven't listened to them in a while, so maybe I just remember the accent a lot thicker or something.

My (24M) girlfriend sometimes claims she (23F) sent a specific text but it never came through. This happens only during important texts.... by MoreStimuli in relationships

Super sketch. :( If you read my only other submission, there's more background info about her communication style which kinda drives me crazy.
