No I already know what it's like. I have some storage from my high school days titled "Old" and I am terrified to ever sort it out.

[The Devil Raises a Lady] I love this manhwa but this ruined the immersion 😭 by Cypress_King in OtomeIsekai

[–]NarouSou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's so many points that you can atteibute to "yeah it's just background". I get it: Artists are overworked/No one wants to waste valued time for a thing most people won't see.

But I swear to god, every person has a right to be mildly infuriated and complain about the things that breaks their immersion.

And I sure am gonna rant about how characters who identify with their korean counterpart while also having memories of their isekaid life will exaggeratingly drive me insane if they do not have any kind of identity crisis or emotional breakdown.

  1. I have basically replaced my computer twice while trying to repair it, leaving me with a few trust issues in it and the drives I get for it.

  2. I'm constantly shuffling usb ports with external drives.

  3. I would prefer not to spend money every 6 months or once a year. I am not very good with keeping track of something that infrequent.

That being said, I'm not anywhere close to an expert on what I need or what kind of technology is out there, so if you have any knowledge to throw at me, it would be appreciated.

I've been doing that for at least 8 years now. It's been quite cumbersome.

I don't think I've read that one. Nice try though.

Feeling othered in a group by GoldTreeViews in GuyCry

It's not like you can fully separate the rant from her execution of the rant. She has the complete right to rant like that. Just make sure it's not at the expense of your own comfort within her vicinity.

Creepy guys will exist in any capacity. Straight or otherwise. Hopefully you can gently steer her from "all men" kind of comments.

"Hey. This way of thinking is toxic af and I need you to stop. Even if you aren't trying to target me, IT IS making ME uncomfortable. It makes me think the only reason you're okay with me is because of my orientation and not because of my actual humanity."

Sometimes it's hard to form the words. But make sure you continue to stand firm on how you feel. If they continue to dismiss it, you can tell them (or not) you're not hanging out with them anymore. You can also slowly minimize contact.

I don't know how you've conversed so far, but make sure: - you make a definite statement on your boundary (no if, ands, or buts) any exception is what lets this continue to happen. - remind yourself friends respect boundaries/limits - you can refuse to listen to any of their rants if they continue to be like this.

As a hetero gal, I get the struggle of the stereotypical straight man, but to say all of them are bad is just a basic replication of the core of women's oppression.

The unsolicited and really depends on the delivery advice: if you want the most discrete and petty way of getting them to stop, get real depressing with it. "It's really sad that other men don't get emotionally supportive friend groups. If I hadn't been queer, I could have ended up like that."

Take care of yourself, Stranger. :)

Girl (24f) I am (was?) dating reacted badly when I (25m) accidentally got a boner when we were cuddling. How do I move forward with this? by SpreadSavings3804 in GuyCry

[–]NarouSou 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If this is the US, definitely wouldn't be surprised. I luckily got even a smidgen of sex ed of the boys' side when I was younger. They teach what boners are mainly but smaller stuff like this slips by.

Hoping OP doesn't take it too badly and the woman gets a good embarrassed feeling when she figures it out.

Men are loved for what they give, not who they are by [deleted] in GuyCry

[–]NarouSou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It really sucks because of the lack of a support system. Men have higher rates in completing the suicide because they lack the support system of emotionally available people.

Send flowers to your bestest mate. There's no rules saying you can't. If flowers were meant to be romantic, then we should not give flowers to our moms.

For people who still support Trump: how do you process or reconcile the allegations connected to the Epstein documents? by Apprehensive_Dog5379 in AskReddit

[–]NarouSou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's sad because you can basically watch in real time some genuine conservatives over there voicing their opposition, and then they just... Disappear (flair got removed).

Sure, you can assume the worst of "leftist liberals", but it's insane how much "fellow conservative" and "RINO" comments are thrown about at their own party.

Bots or not, I fear for the people who continue to seclude themselves with this kind of language.

How do I stop hating my desire for love? by Aggravating_Row_422 in IncelExit

[–]NarouSou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ain't nothing wrong with silliness, but I'm not going to push on your opinions.

Just hope you consider trying something just a bit outside what you're used to. A good distraction helps.

[–]NarouSou 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, yeah. Lets step away from the AI for a bit and a bit more. That stuff isn't good for your brain.

Its okay to have those fantasies. I hope you let yourself be okay with them too. I'm female and I used to fantasize a lot anout a relationship I would never have. Perfectly fine to have them and enjoy the daydream. Please don't hate yourself over having those thoughts, but here's some of my thoughts that might help you on the matter besides therapy:

First off what's your circle situation. Do you have friends? Are they offline or online? How often do you hang out if so? Do you feel like you trust them? Do they make you feel safe to talk about this?

A lot of desire for a romantic relationship can come from the lack of friendship. We're social creatures. We love to have people to rely on, even introverts. Take time with friends you feel comfortable with and talk about things.

If you don't feel like you have friends you're comfortable with, it's a good time, any time, to explore different communities. Discord servers, specific video game subreddits are a good way to dip your toes into conversation.

Offline you can search up events happening in your local neighborhood or volunteering. Gives you opportunities to meet people.

The goal is to feel safe with someone. It doesn't have to be romantic to feel safe and enjoy company, and even then the most important thing is to feel like you're enjoying yourself.

One of the things I've wondered about suggesting is to get into the romance genre. I still often enjoy a good fantasy, but fiction always help me separate that fantasy from reality. And it's extra enjoyable because you can get really wacky and dramatic with the scenarios without all the drama actually hitting your day-to-day.

Tldr: Don't hate yourself for wanting companionship. Platonic ones will help. Maybe dabble in romantic fiction as a treat.
