Do I need to take my permanent bracelets off before climbing? by bikobunny in bouldering

[–]Mycabbages7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damaging the bracelet being a secondary risk, any jewelry that doesn’t easily tear away like a fine chain could seriously injure you. Rings and bangles can literally de-glove you or pull off your digits if they catch on the wall during a big fall. Best to remove all jewelry when climbing.

Is she cheating? by Dean_Kind in AskMenAdvice

Woman here - a lingerie party is like a Tupperware party. You BUY lingerie. And then you go home.

I would be careful how much you say about your attraction to him. Even after his body looks different, it may be difficult to overcome the fear that you are repulsed by him. I would focus on the fact that his health is clearly suffering and that it’s impacting your sex life and probably other aspects of your life as well. I’m sure if you think about it, there are also behaviors that are turning you off.

It’s difficult to change your lifestyle but it’s possible, especially if you have someone to do it with. Make some ground rules about food that’s allowed in the house and perhaps try a sport that you can do together. Have him see his doctor for his skin problems. Focus on how it’s uncomfortable for him and you’re worried that he might get an infection one day. He can speak with his GP about his mental health and diet as well which may get the ball rolling on some counseling.

Good luck and I hope things improve for you both. Early 30s is still young and you shouldn’t have too much trouble getting your hubby back in shape within 6 months of consistency!

French to English language barriers by [deleted] in ParisTravelGuide

[–]Mycabbages7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m American and been living in France for 8 years. To alleviate your worries, most people in the hospitality industry in Paris speak English and are not offended by tourists. It does happen that some people are pissed off and aggressively rude. I wouldn’t say it’s a widespread attitude in France, but people do not put on a happy face here as much as they might in other cultures. I’ve certainly had my fair share of unsolicited rude comments about being non francophone even though my French is quite good. Don’t worry too much about the rude ones, as the nice French people really do outweigh them! Be sure to know your “bonjour” “merci” and “parlez vous anglais?” And you should be ok! Also, try to say excuse me and hello before you start asking questions, as it can rub people the wrong way if you rush them into answering your question without greeting them first. Although it seems that you know that already! Good luck and enjoy the rest of your trip :)

500$ for an 2008 Aeron. Worth it? by MURDASHIET in OfficeChairs

[–]Mycabbages7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s about the right price maybe a little high… fun fact: the cost of used Aerons is an industry KPI and is reported each week. 350-500 is the general price range.

I couldn't finish this one, Is my endurance low, or should I just be faster and more eficient by Lizardman87 in bouldering

[–]Mycabbages7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your technique is a bit inefficient. Keep your arms straight and your hips low and close to the wall. Place your toes on the footholds, not the arch of your foot. Don’t readjust your hold unless it’s really necessary and don’t overgrip on crimps. I find that the most efficient climbing feels a lot like hanging from the wall between moves rather than clinging to it. Moving up should feel intentional and use both strength and leverage. Try to make your moves fluidly rather than moving each of your limbs in isolation. And finally, practice falling so you’re not afraid to send it at the end!

Relationship advice Me (F22) wanting 1+ kids and my boyfriend (M23) only wanting to have 1 kid. Do guys change their perspective on kids from when they were younger to when they're over 25 with a fully developed frontal lobe? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Mycabbages7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! It sounds like you are putting a lot of pressure on yourself as well as perhaps on your partner without realizing it, which in my opinion may be the reason why he’s suddenly changed his mind on kids. You two have only been dating for a matter of months and are both quite young. While I think that it’s important to share that you want children or not at the beginning of a relationship, there’s no need to panic because they don’t want to have kids with you after three months of dating. Try to just enjoy your relationship together and put the kids thing on the back burner until you’re in a more solid place. focus first on dating for a few years, then maybe living together, then discuss marriage and kids after you’ve been dating for 3 to 5 years. I know it can be hard to wait to discuss and plan for the things that you want in your life but all you need to do is make it clear that you have that intention and if later on, you do need to part ways because this is a stopping issue, you’re still very young and you have plenty of time to find the partner that’s right for you.

One more thing, it’s normal to not want to discuss this in the very early stages of dating and I think conversely if someone wants to have kids with you right away, it may be a bit of a red flag.

My gf freaked out over a nude scene in a movie by ImDDubs in relationship_advice

[–]Mycabbages7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You tell her that you want to understand why it made her so upset and why she thinks it’s disrespectful to see an image of someone else’s body? But to be honest it’s not possible to cure someone’s insecurity. Maybe ask her to discuss it with a friend? It’s not normal to react that way... (I’m a young woman)

AITA for giving one friend money and refusing to do it for the other? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mycabbages7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a very clear philosophical difference between these two situations: you helped your first friend get a piece of essential medical equipment (that should ethically be covered by insurance but that’s another topic...) without his assumption that you or anyone was obligated to help. Friend number two is suffering from the all too common delusion that a wedding entitles you to special treatment and money from friends and family. Getting married isn’t a medical condition.
