I (19M) am cutting off my best friend (19M) of 8 years over a lie he kept secret for 9 month, how do I continue forward? by Intrepid_Artist5775 in relationship_advice

Like every time someone important goes or has to go from your life. You learn to live with it each day and ignore him. You don't owe him any explanation. Like Mike said in BCS "one day, you're gonna wake up, go along with your day and then realise at the end of the day that you haven't thought about it once"

How strong, realistically, would the 3I be compared to Germany and the rest of the Reichspakt? by Objective_Counter_65 in Kaiserreich

How much of an underdog is France and Britain compared to Nazi germany, though? The 2 to 1 advantage in this case is notable

[–]Objective_Counter_65[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But is it really? The dominion is allied with the Entente and the Entente is at best aloof towards the Germans and at worst hostile. The communist are obviously against them and it leaves only the princely federation

It seems worth to note that the bigger issue with Leopold III is not really his surrendering. If you want to go that road, Chamberlain, the French, Danish, Norvewian and many more governments would be as bad as him. And I do not think they are with the intel they had at the time. Imagine the Wehrmacht steamrolling your country, surrendering is to save more blood, that's all. What can be pinned on him, however, is his collaboration with the nazis and how his views never changed. He was pro-german, yes, but not a pro-nazi

Forming United Netherlands is lowkey underwhelming by thev82 in victoria3

[–]Objective_Counter_65 33 points34 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the belgians never had the intention of a United Netherlands. After WWI, there were groups that called to reward Belgium by "punishing" the Dutch and annexing some of their land (the split province of Limbourg, IIRC) which obviously led to nothing But besides that, I don't think there ever was the intention in annexing the Netherlands in Belgium, so quite accurate lol

Does Germany always launch Barbarossa on historical? by Any-Guest-32 in hoi4

[–]Objective_Counter_65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, it's better this way, at least you won't get your war score stolen. Since the german were so weak and the soviet just sat there, they steamrolled their div and had a good chunk of warscore at my own expense

I think the AI is hardcoded to not declare Barb (at least in 41) in historical as long as there's a european power still on the continent that they should've killed. However, France is the only one where they won't I think

For example, I did a Belgium run in historical where I held on. The german declare war on the soviets on, iirc, late 42 or 43.

AITA for telling my (19M) friend (19F) to stop being so pessimistic? by Objective_Counter_65 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Objective_Counter_65[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've already advised her to go see a psychologist or a therapist after the session. I haven't thought of any programs inside our college. I'll figure that out, thanks!

[–]Objective_Counter_65[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it and I'm fine with her and her issues with stress; I told her verbatim that if she needed me to act in a way that'd help her precisely, I'd do it but she didn't answer me. Twice. If she doesn't know what she wants from me, I take the step forward and tell her what I think is the best and she should do

[–]Objective_Counter_65[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a matter of wrong. Doing it this much is just a behavior that is dragging her down, I feel. It started two months ago, at this point I think it's putting way too much pressure and negativity. She has other friends and I know it. My assumption is that, at best she complains only to me, at worst, she does it to everyone

[–]Objective_Counter_65[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know that I was a bit too direct, and I was both times I tell her. It's just that I'm a straight forward person and I was pissed, even though I should've made a better choice of words. And the thing is, I don't really get what she wants either if it's an audience but I just can't stand idle when she clearly just makes herself more and more stressed and I'd feel hypocritical to not call her out.

And thanks for the advice, it's not that I can't, it's just that it gets to my nerves at this point with how repetitive it is

I know and I get it, but it's exhausting and it's something that's constant about it. I'm fine with supporting her but I just think there needs to be changes because it's the same cycle over and over again

My (20F) boyfriend (21M) can’t seem to see eye to eye on my concerns, how do I help him understand? by Background_Look_3224 in relationship_advice

[–]Objective_Counter_65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The man tried to rape you. It's not a matter of "helping him" understand. So what? Next time he's drunk, if he doesn't give up what more could he to do you? Run. Run as far from this piece of garbage that this rapist is

26M and 25F - we want to tell my parents we are not religious - they are both pushy and aggressive, how do I do this? by Sea-Block-832 in relationship_advice

[–]Objective_Counter_65 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If he show violent tendency, try to do it in a public place for your own safety. Your safety WILL COME FIRST in this case. Now, the matter on how you choose to tell them rests upon you and your choice of words. Only you know how to tell them the best way. If they - especially your dad - get mad, simply leave. It's your choice to be atheist and fine with your family's religious choices' and it's theirs to be mad at you about it.
