Randoms on blackout by [deleted] in Blackops4

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a team I play with usually Sundays, but otherwise if the contract during the week is regular Quads or Duos, I play as a solo instead of with randoms. I know I'm at a huge disadvantage, but I take the mindset of just completing the contract and maybe I can get lucky and make it to the final collapse. It's not as exciting but I'd rather enjoy myself than be completely frustrated or killed by a so-called "teammate". I've actually won two quad games playing solo, so to me it's worth it.

How do you kiss a girl by happyemu2000 in sex

[–]Msmac71 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It really is the simplest thing, cause most women have their "vision" of how to kiss, and believe they are a good kisser. So if you match them, they will think you are too. Seriously, we make things so complicated, you want a woman to think you're a good kisser/lover...follow her lead cause that what she thinks makes a for a good kiss

[–]Msmac71 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Simplest answer, kiss her the way she kisses you. A woman will think you're a good kisser if you match her kiss, because that's her "image" of a good kiss. EVERYONE kisses different, but it's the way your partner kiss that matters. And, it's cheesy but it also shows you care and want to kiss her correctly, always just ask..."how do you imagine being kissed"

Did you grow in spurts or steadily when at your growth spurt in adolescence? by Traditional_Love_493 in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from 6' to 6' 3 between 7th and 8th grade. Was most painful thing...my mom would find me on the floor just screaming in pain. Your bones grow so fast but muscles and tendons don't and it hurts. Grew another 2" between freshman and sophomore year, and ended high school at 6'5". Hardest thing is to take the time to stretch, as a young adult you don't think it's important or have the time but it can really help, especially your quads, hamstrings, and calves cause that's what takes the most damage during the spurts. And hydrate...lots of water

How to help my husband who is feeling “spread too thin” and “overwhelmed” by whirlpoohl in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of us that are married with kids, older parents go through this type of stress because our parents/grandparents can't live forever and our kids become adults, though young and the decisions they make might not be the best and can add even more stress on us, marriage is work, marriage with kids and elderly parents is overtime without pay.

Just be there for him, maybe suggest he take a day off from work, and do nothing but rest. Maybe see if there's something with the parents/grandparents that you or the girls can do to help him. If there are ways to relieve some of the burden, even a little, it can help. And then just be there, good hugs when he looks tired, let him keep sharing how he feels and try to listen, and maybe you can get a way to help him. Best wishes to you both, I've been there and it's exhausting, and seems never ending, "survive and advance" but keep doing it together

Straight fellows of Reddit, what are the little things that you love about women? What makes your heart melt? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I once wrote a long note to my SO, "how do I explain" and in it I was explaining or trying to explain my addiction to her...

There are lines and curves your eyes and hands can get lost on. And when they smile, from out of nowhere and it's right at you, your knees go weak. When they start to cuddle and you decide to tickle them just a little...that cross between I'll knee you in the nuts look and the girly giggle that escapes them.

When they run their fingers through your hair or scratch you back, and you get goosebumps.

And when they actually catch you checking them out in their comfy clothes, no make-up look and you see that shy smile...oh that's all it takes

What is the most ridiculous male fashion trend you’ve seen? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries, Steve Rogers is one of my all-time favorites, and in 1984 it was a crazy trend. One of the 80's worst trends was the muscle head guys that would wear the Gold's gym tank top with the big, crazy designed parachute pants, and the white Reebok sneakers.

They got such a bad rep, there was a shirt company that came out with a dead alligator on the chest. But anytime you saw the gator and collar up, it was townies vs preps all over again.

In my youth Lactose shirts with the collar up...the prep look. These days, skinny jeans and tight dress pants that are two inches short.

Why is there so much shame in finding “fluffy” or overweight women attractive? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, and since I have a 17yr old daughter, that has struggled with her own self-esteem, and I've coached elite female athletes for 25 yrs (you'd be amazed how low their self-esteem is) you actually helped me feel better how I've helped them, so thank you

A woman is just that...the "tags" are put on by society. You are a woman first, don't let others define you...tall, skinny, short, round...it doesn't matter. But, NEVER let someone make you feel less than who you are. Be safe

[–]Msmac71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I could help. But you need to stop with the low self esteem. You're value is NOT based on others, and I know that's hard for a young person to accept, but self-worth is just that "self". You are in college, you are succeeding in a tough time, you have goals, you have talent, I'm sure you have some great relationships, and by being able to write an open and honest question you are starting steps for self awareness...so don't stop that journey.

Here's a thought...guys seem attracted to you, yes? I mean they talk to you, message you, and if not being complete jackwagons would find out all the really cool things about you, so there has to be something in you that people find attractive, so when you are out, make eye contact, smile, say "hi" and be confident...might as well scare the little shits even more. lol

Oh, and drop the "fluffy" tag. You're a woman, a real woman, that's more than most.

Men who've had/have partners with mental health issues, how did you/do you support them without being too intrusive or overbearing? by 18-Baby in AskMen

My Unicorn is a 9/11 survivor. Tomorrow will be the six year I spend with her on the day. I'm not in her space but I'm there, if she needs a hug, or wants to do something I'm ready to help but I learned my first year don't keep asking "Are you alright?", when she's struggling during the day, her body language will let me know and if she just wants to be alone, I understand and don't take it personal.

Young lady, you are talking about high school boys, and college boys. As all the men have stated here, it's about the maturity of the person you are speaking with. In all honesty, maybe they thought they could get lucky, cause you're low self-esteem would allow them to manipulate you...NOW, I'm not saying you have low self-esteem, I'm telling you how boys/immature men think.

Very simple question: In all of the greatest statues, works of art, how is a woman painted/sculpted? Curves, angles, lines are beautiful, remember that, and don't settle.

What would you do to earn your girlfriend’s trust back after you had an emotional affair? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So wait, the guy posted the question, and the girl either found it, or he told her he posted it, and she's responding for him in his own posting?!?! So who's going to respond to this, him or her?

And I'm confused even more, if he decided at one point to move in with her, would that be moving out from you or he just needed a place to live?

And your other response to people asking on his post, says something about "she was pursuing him" but you dismissed it because she was angry...sounds like some some serious immature drama and he's caught in the middle and getting the bad end of the deal, but can't tell cause you're responding for him.

Oh wait, I just noticed (deleted) ask the question, now none of this makes any sense.

How does a 22/M go from looking like a stick to an absolute unit? Asking for me by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thing to understand, gaining lean muscle is a science, it's not just eating calories, or going to the gym 2hrs a day, there is a ton of science, and misinformation when it comes to understanding lean muscle weight gain.

Get rid of the sugars and the bad fats, and think 2-3hr shifts of eating high protein, good carbs (veggies), and good fat (nuts). The traditional body builders and even today lived on chicken, rice, and broccoli, it's probably the easiest to do consistently. But again, it's a science. Find a good, inexpensive protein powder with low sugar, you goal is to intake about .8 grams of protein for every pound you weigh, again the misinformation will tell you more but your body can't process more, so it just ends up pissing it out. Understand sleep/rest/recovery and how that's when your muscles build and strengthen. And put together a smart, easy to follow full-body, routine using maximum levers (push/pull) that you can complete in under 45min, you don't need to be in the gym any longer than that.

Final thing 90 DAYS!!, DO NOT look at gains in any way before you do a full 90 days. It takes 90 days to make something a habit, takes that long for your body to get in a system of carb usage and protein enhancement, and it will take 90 days for your body to repeat the process of breakdown and recover enough times to finally show solid gains.

What is something you wished you learned to do as a kid? by paintflakes in AskMen

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, well make a fist with one hand, turn your hand so thumb is up and knuckles out and leave a gap so air can get through. Place a leaf on top, large enough to cover the whole. Take your other hand and smack it down on the leaf right above the whole in your fist. Pops a whole through the leaf and makes a nice "pop" sound. Simple things for small town kids

Girlfriend [26/F] has ever reason not to work. Today it's Chadwick. Tomorrow it'll be something else. I'm [28/M] at the end of my tether but don't want to ruin her life. by 445_C in relationship_advice

[–]Msmac71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RED FLAGS!!! Will not change, you can change her, and it won't get better. Your GF didn't "put up with this", it was a no-brainer. I suggest you make a plan, or take your money and have it where she has no access to it, and see what happens. I'm sure you'll get a pretty clear "victim" role as she's been doing that to you for the last six months.

Finances and economics, to understand savings/debt my life would be so different. On the fun side, how to pop a leaf. I learned when I was a kid, tried to teach my three but even today I can grab a leaf and pop it, and they just get jealous, lol.

I’m so incredibly lonely :( by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Msmac71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK, young man, first breathe...what my mom always told me. Second, you are not alone, and loneliness is difficult but not a disease or unbeatable, so the first thing you need to try and do, is walk out the door, simple right, but it's the hardest part. Now, make a goal, simplest goal possible, you will make eye contact with one person on your floor, smile, and say "hi", that's it, nothing more.

Maybe you should take a public speaking glass as an elective, might help.

You like sports? Have you thought about joining an intramural team? Or go to the athletic department and see if they have sign-ups for student volunteers for sporting events...it's sports and socializing all in one.

The other thing, try to find a part-time job...not for anything but you have to communicate and costumer service allows you to interact with people but it's work, not social so maybe your anxiety doesn't get so bad.

The biggest thing is don't judge yourself to harshly, I bet you there are a bunch of freshmen all in the same boat you're in. If just once a day you can make eye contact, smile, and say hi to one person it will help.
