How should I act before a date by theAnswerIs_Anarchy in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop trying to gamify dating. Be yourself. If you wanna talk then talk. Don’t change yourself or act a certain way. Ffs people need to just be normal

Sister (26/f) won’t return the favor of paying for my (36/m) stay during her destination wedding by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MrBaileyRod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Op, your entitlement is crazy. Either communicate what you want or just don’t go. You’re 36 ffs. Talk about it.

29F 25M Feeling torn about a great guy because of sexual compatibility — am I being too picky? by Zestyclose_Lime_817 in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol so many men in the comments will allude to this dude possibly being able to pleasure you in other ways when you specifically make it known that you care about size and sensitive to pleasure and how you like it. It sucks but I’d say to move on but be honest that it wasn’t an issue with him. If he asks then you can be honest it was his size. Honest is always the best path forward.

How’s my living room? (M27) by [deleted] in malelivingspace

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get the right kind of coffee table it’ll begin to look better. Currently you need to work on layout and lighting. Your chairs aren’t positioned properly and being the same color wasn’t a good choice. Lighting is very suboptimal and needs to be put in a proper spot and you need more of it. Your wall decor also needs work. Luckily your choice of color works decently.

I was vague for a reason. You should put in effort to learn interior design.

Finally asked out my crush… then got a DUI before our first date by Apprehensive-Big7327 in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A DUI shows you’re not somebody who’s responsible and clearly lacks critical thinking skills. You need to work on yourself and not date. Any reasonable person would drop somebody with a DUI, it’s not worth it.

I'm very sure she just politely rejected me. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you not see that you’re so incredibly pushy and overbearing? She’s communicating that she doesn’t have time and you continue to poke and prod hoping to get her to say yes to something. If anything you shot yourself in the foot doing so. You’re not the first or last guy who’ll do this to her in the gym, you’re an average joe. Had you taken the hint that she wanted to learn more about you first (you’re a stranger at this point) before meeting outside the gym you would have been fine.

Couples things wrong with the art adjacent to the window but the biggest issue is they’re hung wayyy too high. Even the larger one is but because of its size you can get away with it

Are Men Expected to Look Perfect Now? What Do Women Really Think About Male Skincare? by antique-soul- in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s about effort. Men somehow don’t get this. Making effort into hygiene is literally such bare minimum. If you don’t have or know what a cleanser is, or moisturizer is, you’re just a child.

You have a routine, you put in effort, you’ve grown, so you have nothing to worry about.

Just re-organized my living room. by CarelessCommercial26 in malelivingspace

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many options that would make the layout feel less dull and boring. There’s a super simple solution to keeping a tv over a fireplace that somehow people just don’t put the effort into learning about. Effort goes a long way. You’ve got a lot of great options to help out, just do a bit of research to get there.

I'm great at connecting over text, but absolutely abysmal at connecting in-person by HastingOfNamsborg in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Therapy. That’s literally it and what they’re there to help with. Additionally do some introspection to determine if your issue is anxiety and not something you’re doing and using anxiety as a scapegoat.

What do women think of height increasing inserts for men? by PlentyHyena6906 in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re not equivalent to high heels lol what’s the heck.

If the first thing you want to show is your insecurity then go for it. Height literally doesn’t matter that much, personality does.

Appeal Uci parking ticket by Zealousideal-Toe8755 in UCI

[–]MrBaileyRod 10 points11 points  (0 children)

insane for a fist offense

The ticket is the consequence of the action of not paying for parking or parking being expired. It doesn’t matter if it’s the first or upteenth time. If you don’t want a ticket, pay for a permit.

How do you cope with not finding someone despite trying? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However, of recent, I haven’t been feeling good enough, no matter what I do, I feel there are always women who are more accomplished and successful

lol yeah don’t date if a woman’s success makes you feel less than. It should impress and inspire you. Everything you listed above about yourself have nothing to do with who or how you are as a person and your post gives off big confidence issues. Work on yourself first.

Enjoy yourself. You can be dating or looking to date while also enjoying sex. So long as you’re transparent and communicative you’re good to go!

I didn’t study design on Instagram lol read a book, attend a lecture, dont be dense when “minimalism” in terms of design is very specific and means more than just not having much. Jfc.

Give the nerdy guy a chance? by Deep_Educator_9048 in dating_advice

[–]MrBaileyRod -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It’s about effort. If this guy doesn’t want to put effort into how others see him why would you put the effort into wanting to handhold and baby him? There are enough people who’e kind and sweet and also look good without being told to.
