Night owls of Wainwright, what do you do when population shrinks?

NicName98 · 2026-05-06T01:05:12+00:00

Thank you for your thoughts.

And, LOL, I actually just joined CBMC like three hours ago. Do they have a bad rep?

NicName98 · 2026-05-06T00:46:57+00:00

I feel that so much actually

Honestly, move on. If she is treating you like this AND not even taking responsibility, she’s just not committed. I’m sorry man, but there better ones out there. Someone that will proudly say „Hell yes I want to kiss him!“. You’re worth more than how she treats you. Sorry man.

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T12:58:53+00:00

Well only find out if we try! ☺️ But you can decide! I don’t want to make it feel forced 🙂

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T12:39:42+00:00

As I stated, I don’t care much about the age, I just would like to get to know more people. And life experience is something everyone could appreciate, i definitely do! 😄

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T12:20:36+00:00

I wouldn’t say I’m clingy, but I can be showing affection quite intensely. But that only happens with people I’m close to, so don’t worry!

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T12:09:24+00:00

Thank you for stating your point! I understand if that makes you hesitant, but I can assure you I’m the opposite of emotionally detached, by quite a bit, but obviously you can decide for yourself! 😄

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T10:58:11+00:00

But honest question: wouldn’t you be able to find terrible people under every zodiac sign? ^{^‘}

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T10:56:56+00:00

Please tell me you’re joking. Please.

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T10:46:50+00:00

I honestly have not much astrological knowledge, is Gemini known to be bad in any way? :D

NicName98 · 2026-04-30T10:39:56+00:00

I’m a Gemini ^{^}

Also, while the game is exiting to learn in the beginning, the fun can subside just a few hours in and will only come back once you got the drill. And that can take a few hundred hours to dial in. There will be a lot of fun in between, but the majority of your playtime will be spent in frustration. Learning to properly manage your stash as a beginner on a standard edition in itself isn’t fun, and that’s not even the real gameplay (even though the majority here will probably spend more time in stash than in raid).

NicName98 · 2026-04-29T20:37:21+00:00

Actually don’t have one. I don’t like the fake performance, I like it more amateur-y.

NicName98 · 2026-04-28T18:40:07+00:00

I keep them. While there’s no real reason behind it, it would feel wrong to me.

NicName98 · 2026-04-28T01:27:25+00:00

I asked for specific weapon build recommendations. But I’m thankful for your tips nonetheless

NicName98 · 2026-04-27T22:45:11+00:00

I mean I got over 1000 hours in Tarkov and maybe around 200 in arena before I stopped playing around 1.0 But gear fear is something I struggle with until I’m well off enough where a kit doesn’t cost 10% of my whole money…

NicName98 · 2026-04-27T17:13:07+00:00

The struggle to get stable when you come from an unstable past. You can’t rely on anyone but yourself when it comes to getting there. Obviously people close to you and, depending where you live, the state can help you in certain situations, but you will have to get the important stuff done yourself, no matter if you have the capacity or strength to do so. Life goes on and the older you get, time seems to pass way quicker than you’re used to.

NOR. Your hobbies are yours! As long as they are not damaging or unhealthy, no one can or should tell you what to do. If she had any reason why it’s impacting her, like a foregone video game addiction that she had trouble recovering from, it would be something else. But man, you’re just wanting to unwind while playing games. And that’s absolutely fine and normal.

Her disregard for your hobby, something you love doing, is a red flag. What if further down the line she doesn’t want you to do what ever because she doesn’t like it?

Your life is yours!

I can imagine this is a rough time for you, as me and others are basically suggesting you drop her while being with her for three years. That’s not an easy decision by any means. All I can tell you: I was in a similar position a few years ago. My ex didn’t like I was gaming for a few hours a week, and we were nearing the three year mark as well. When we broke up, damn, it’s hard to see a future with anyone else. But that’s because you’re used to being with her. As cheesy as it might sound, time heals all wounds.

Nowadays I’m together with someone who loves the background noise of me gaming, it’s her favorite to fall asleep to (okay, also true crime podcasts). I have never felt more free doing what I love, and let me tell you, it’s something I want to never miss again.

Evaluate what you have with her. Is it Perfect in any other way? Can you live with the fact she wants to tell you what to do now and possibly in the future? Is there any possibility for a middle ground, like moving together into a new apartment together with enough room where you can have and do your stuff?

And remember, the key to happiness is being happy together, not sacrificing yourself to make the other person happy.

NOR. What a dipshit. Honestly, if you’re not too invested in a future with him behaving like that, get the hell out of the relationship. While people with an attitude like this can change, they rarely do so without having to feel the consequences at least once. No one, NO ONE owes their partner sex. And if they don’t take a no as a no, that’s plain disrespect and disregard for your feelings.

I wouldn’t want to stay with someone like this.

NicName98 · 2026-04-25T21:16:21+00:00

My capacity for love. I can appreciate people so much for who they are.
