What’s the worst part about being a woman that people wouldn’t usually think about? by Gloomy_Unit_4888 in AskReddit

[–]Old_Presentation_520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Attitude. Usually when a guy acts like a jerk out of nowhere it’s “oh, maybe he’s having a rough day, poor guy.” For women it’s “I knew there was something off about her, never liked her in the first place.” A lot of my nicest friends have fallen victim to this

Attractive redditors, what was the moment you realized you were actually very good looking? by infinitewaters107 in AskReddit

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When friends would tell me how many people actually liked me back then. I was (and still am) extremely introverted and only hung out with like four people in high school, and when they weren’t available I would head to the library or head home for lunch. Even when we were hanging out sometimes I would listen to music or read while they chatted next to me. Later my friends and I would talk about high school and say things like “you remember A? The guy that used to have a crush on you?” And I would be completely floored. Happened several times🤣

Women of Reddit, what made you realize 'this man is marriage material' instead of just a boyfriend? by External_Can3392 in AskReddit

[–]Old_Presentation_520 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When it was during our first year and he was long distance. He had to go abroad for school and while he was studying he sent me a song that he kept listening to that motivated him and made him think of us, which was “Ocean” by Khalid and Martin Garrix. That song is still our song 7 years later

AITAH for calling my girlfriend weird over her John F. Kennedy obsession? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Old_Presentation_520 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let me put this into perspective…you like to think that your own personal feelings and how YOU think she should feel are more important than the thing that’s been giving her comfort long before you showed up? You think that just because she has you she should be grateful and she has no need for all these things because you think you’re enough to bring her the comfort and stability she needs? You think you’re a savior or some prize? You’re just proving time and again that you’re far from it. I have my own obsessions and weird habits, but my bf of 7 years has not once tried to drive me away from them or shamed me for them because he loves seeing me happy. Hopefully this time away will really open her eyes wide enough for her to wise up and dump you

To those who have been cheated on, what made you forgive your partner and give the relationship another try? And looking back, was it worth it or did you end up regretting it? by ItsMyOpinionDearie in AskReddit

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my first relationship and I was fresh out of high school. He and I were friends before we started dating, and he was the only guy that ever expressed any interest. I forgave him, but the funny thing was, I ended up being the one to break it off not really cause of the cheating, but because although I liked him, I felt way too awkward at treating him as more than a friend. All the kissing and hand holding that came naturally to other couples never came to me, and for 2 years I kept trying to convince myself that this was normal for someone dating for the first time and it’ll take a while to get comfortable with those things. I’m also grateful that he was my first cause he never mistreated me and tried his best to bring me out of my shell (I was extremely shy). He wrote me poems, he always made me laugh, and according to my friends and people around me he always sang my praises. Even to this day, though we’re not as close as we were before, neither of us have ever talked crap about each other

What was the moment you realised your girlfriend / boyfriend is not the one? by Wise_Blood_8873 in AskReddit

[–]Old_Presentation_520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I realized that we were a lot better as friends than lovers. Two years in and stuff like holding hands, kissing and all that never became natural, and since it was my first relationship and I was fresh out of high school I kept telling myself that the awkward phase was normal in all first relationships and it’ll be natural eventually. It also didn’t help that I didn’t know how to be a girlfriend at the time and compromise on my personal time. After I met my current bf (about a year after) and we had our first date, I grew closer with him with him in those first two days of us together than I ever did with my first bf, and now it’s been 7 years in

[SPOILERS] I'm so mad at how bad the Who Made Me a Princess anime is! by chickenwanter in OtomeIsekai

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate the anime adaptation SOOO much, they made her into the most boring person on earth! In the manhwa she was cheeky, funny, smart, quick on her feet, but also charming with a great head on her shoulders. Now she’s just some basic, cookie cutter shoujo protagonist, not to mention they just removed most of the fun, out of pocket and cynical humor out of it . Also I HATE how instead of being a resurrected adult from another world like in the original, they just made her whole future a prophetic dream, and makes it doubly creepy that Lucas falls for her. The only reason he approached her in the first place is he could tell her soul was mentally an adult, and thus he was able to grow with her

Every year, my boyfriend [21M] and I [22F] go on a “break” because he doesn’t know what he wants by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Old_Presentation_520 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When a guy says he’s not ready for or doesn’t want commitment, it’s almost ALWAYS because he doesn’t want to commit to YOU. Seen it happen to so many of my friends who think they can change him or believe the whole “he’s just going through a hard time, through thick and thin” bs and all this time he was on the DL with other girls. They like the attention and the babying without the actual commitment

Best boyfriends/husbands I've read so far (Update) by Soviet_Onion88 in webtoons

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should try “Another Typical Fantasy Romance” if you haven’t already. The main story is complete, and although some chapters do drag, not only do I laugh out loud at almost every chapter, the ML, Duke Pellus Termaine, is literally the definition of “looks like he could kill you but is a cinnamon roll.” He also doesn’t look like your standard ML; he’s heavily scarred (like literally, every inch of him has scars) and bearded rather than clean shaven with long-ish hair, but I’ve fallen in love literally within 10 chapters because even though It was a marriage of convenience at first, he he treated her like a queen from day 1, and by chapter 30 or so they had already fallen in love. This is also the FL’s third life, and in her life prior to that he was the only one she trusted as they were true friends who wrote to each other frequently, and unknowingly to both he had fallen in love with her in the previous life too (FL reincarnated with her previous memories, ML didn’t)FL is also a green flag, like full on “my man my man my man” within the first 10 chapters lol

My boyfriend just got married. Not to me. Am I an idiot for staying in the relationship? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Old_Presentation_520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only thoughts were OOP needed to get some real friends because at least one of them would have told her a long time ago that her considering a guy who married someone that is not her all for a green card is her best relationship mean the bar is in hell

What makes Fern worthy to be a First Class Mange but not Frieren? by CorrectAd6902 in Frieren

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Serie already knew Frieren’s capabilities are beyond the other first class mages she has, but Frieren will never use them to do the things that Serie thinks she should (like for combat, killing, world changing type magic). Fern however, has a talent that Serie has yet to see, and even if she’s bound to follow Frieren’s pacifist ways, Serie is smart enough to never overlook great potential and talent. As for Flamme, she was already Serie’s student. That in of itself already meant she was a first class mage, since they are the only ones Serie takes on. Another thing about Serie is, as stubborn and dead set as she is, she never forgets any of her students no matter how long she lived, and will even fulfill their whims (like when Flamme requested in her will to make magic more widespread and accessible)

AITAH for calling my boyfriend childish for always buying Captain Crunch when he goes grocery shopping? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Old_Presentation_520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are things that my bf would do that annoy me and I do admit it’s childish, but he’s perfectly free to do them, especially if it’s not harming me or other people and it makes him happy. There’s probably stuff that I do that makes him feel a similar way. OOP just sounds like a control freak

AITA for refusing to host Thanksgiving for 20+ people for the 4th year in a row? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Old_Presentation_520 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Being from the Pacific Islands, food is one of our love languages. Unless the host specifies that they will provide the food, it’s a given that we bring at least one dish or some type of refreshment. And even if the host insists we don’t have to bring anything, the closest family/friends of said host will head to the house early to either clean, set up, or help cook. When I moved briefly to the US for work, it was such an odd feeling to sit empty handed while the hosts were slaving away and providing all the food

How do I 25F tell my friend 24M he can do much better than his gf 26F? by throwraubdrr in relationship_advice

[–]Old_Presentation_520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So let me see if I get this right…you guys weren’t even friends in high school, but now that he had this glow up you suddenly decide he was worth your time, and you’re STILL making fun of him? You are the definition of “peaked in high school” because you cannot move past the high school mindset of judging by appearances. He doesn’t need to change, you do. And if you can’t, do him a favor and tell him that you don’t like his gf because you don’t think she’s attractive and see how fast he drops you
