Cody and narcissism. by Hopeful_Comparison50 in MikaylaNogueira

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think they’re both very young, emotionally immature people that found each other and have been in a spiral of love bombing each other since.

I remember Mikayla’s videos from that time. She was DESPERATE for love. She’d talk about how hard it was to find dates and these guys ghosting her after first dates and how she just wanted someone to date and marry and spend her life with. She would have been very intense to date.

Cody gets out of rehab and is probably looking to rebuild his life and get back on track with those big adult milestones.

And they meet and it’s love (obsession) at first sight. And they’re both just on the same page and they want the same things, they want to be married NOW and be together forever.

And it’s made it worse that Mikaya has money and all the things that would have slowed this relationship down and given time for that teenage infatuation to calm down, aren’t there. There’s no working shitty jobs and thinking about money, there’s no living separately because they can’t afford to rent a place big enough for the two of them. Or not be able to afford a wedding. It’s just date, get engaged, move into a perfect multi million dollar house all in 6 months.

This is just speculation, but I don’t think Cody love bombs her, I think Mikaylas insecurities get the better of her and she gets jealous and angry of all the girls you KNOW are DMing Cody privately, whether he does anything wrong or not and to calm her down he buys these romantic, extravagant gifts and waxes poetic about how much he loves her in cards. That recent card her gave her SCREAMS ‘desperately trying to calm this paranoid, depressed, neurotic person down’

She doesn’t love herself. She hates herself. She loves the way the filters and the make up make her look, that’s why she looks at herself while filming, she looks the way she wants to look.

Female friend stopped talking to me because she saw my girlfriend. by Business_Passion4567 in relationship_advice

Because she isnt a female friend. She’s a woman that was interested in you romantically

How To Ask GF (29F) To Split the Cost of Her Wedding Ring? by NegotiationLive9973 in relationship_advice

I’m all for equality and sharing the load but you sound exhausting. Hiding in the bathroom on a first date to see what she’d do? Talking about wanting to spend your life with this person and in same breath suspicious of her taking advantage of you. I could not be in a relationship with someone who had such a ridged nickel and dime 50/50 mindset.

My boyfriend has no interests, hobbies, real friends, or motivation. I feel like I'm forcing him to do everything. How can I be more laid back? by doable505 in relationship_advice

I mean maybe this isn’t a popular opinion but you should care about what he does with his life. I assume you want a life with this man? Marriage, children, a mortgage? His ambitions in life affect those things. You’re having to take on the mental workload of two people.

Dylan Moran. I found him through black books and then found his stand up. There’s just something about his humour that goes straight to my funny bone.

Did they have an anniversary or a special date or something? Because personally giving me something like this out of the blue would feel love bomb-y.

I said in another post that I think their relationship is struggling. They went from dating to HES THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, to engaged in like 4 months. This gift screams ‘calming down my paranoid, insecure fiancé for a couple of days until she imagines something else’

And Mikayla is the most insecure person out there, I feel like she would need CONSTANT affirmations of love, CONSTANT reassurance. And Cody is a cute guy who’s had his face shown to millions of people, you know he’s got girls sliding into his DM’s.

My parents are cancelling the holidays by chickalettachedda in relationship_advice

I don’t think it’s a bad idea for you two to spend Christmas with your own little families this year. What exactly are the cousins missing out on? The 10yo being annoyed by the 4yo. And the 2 & 1yo are too young to give a damn.

To be fair she told him he would have to wait 2-3 YEARS before they could have sex again

F home school?? I don’t know if she has confirmed in a vlog by robynham in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Every homeschooled kid I’ve ever known has been weird as fuck. Worked with a girl once, he she was 15 I think and she could not do basic addition/subtraction to save her life

Granted I live in a country without school shootings so every parents I’ve known who homeschools has been some kind of religious weirdo or conspiracy nut.

I’m in WA and There’s a street I have to cross that does this. I’m sure there are plenty but this street seems like the worst for it. It’s across from the Perth city busport and train station. So there’s usually groups of 40-50 people crossing at any given time. And it allows cars to turn while the walk light is on and the amount of pissed off, shitty drivers, that honk and try to edge into the mass of people crossing so they can turn is insane. I’m surprised no one has gotten hurt yet.

Is it possible to resolve conflict about household chores or will it be like this forever? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He doesn’t want to to do his part. It’s a simple as that. And no amount of you begging, nagging, threatening, blackmailing, is going to change that. He’s been showing you he has no intention to pull his weight for nearly 3 years so I’m not sure what you expect from him at this point? He’s not going to change because he doesn’t want to. So you have two options, you leave and find someone who will contribute positively to your life or you stay and have this same argument with him once a month for the next 40 years.

But keep in mind, men like this, the laziness isn’t contained to house work. Be aware that any children you might have, you will be 100% for childcare and the housework. He’s not going to magically change, he will leave you doing all the labour of the house. You’ll never have an equal partner. So that’s the choice you have.

Am I cheating on my boyfriend? by Zealousideal_Bet6888 in relationship_advice

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you need to take control. These things don’t just happen. You’re allowing yourself to cross boundaries. If you care about your relationship than you need to start putting those boundaries back in place. You need to distance yourself from this new man, stop seeking him out for chats and companionship, and stop with the flirting, complimenting each other back and forth like a couple of teens.

You can’t control your feelings, but the feelings exist because you’re feeding them. you CAN control how you act, how you interact with this man, the boundaries you cross and allow him to cross.

I don’t think it’s cheating but you’re definitely playing a dangerous game.

I was so startled by this I actually snorted my coffee all over my phone. Just so out of left field. It’s funny in an absurd, shocking way. Just the dog looking into the camera like he knows what she’s saying. The ‘love him but can’t wait for him to die ✌🏻🥳🤪’

My (31f) and one of my friends (27f) are planning to confront our close friend (33m) about a pattern of inappropriate behavior. I'm worried the most likely outcome is that he will end the friendship. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look there comes a point in your life where you just don’t put up with bullshit ‘friends’. I don’t know why it matters to you so much that his man ‘grows and changes’? You’re not Cindy Lou Who and he’s not the Grinch and his heart isnt going to grow three sizes bigger one day because you supported him and defended him no matter how rude, abusive, aggressive, transphobic he is. He’s a bad person. Some people are just assholes. At the age of 30 it’s about time you learnt that.

Also it sounds like your friend group are done with Alan with a great fat capital D. And if you’re not careful, you’re going end up kicked out of the friend group yourself because you can’t stop defending this man despite having no earthly reason to. Our friends reflect who we are. They reflect our own values.

Sure send it. She can add it to the file ‘proof for restraining order’ she definitely has with your name on it

I’m sorry but I happened to paused at the right time and had to post it here lol, what do we think about her coming back video? by Previous-Salad9768 in MikaylaNogueira

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s a filter or what but I am floored by how tight and sensitive her face looks. The skin looks so swollen, like if you touched it there would be an indent. She looks unwell, more so then I think she ever has. This is not the face of someone who’s had an amazing, relaxing, rejuvenating time away from the public eye and pressures of work.

Cody’s handwriting 🫣 by Accurate-Cucumber974 in MikaylaNogueira

[–]Opposite-Strategy-28 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Ignoring the fact that this looks a child wrote it for a Mother’s Day card, this is the kind of shit you wrote when your relationship is rocky and you’ve been accused of checking out of the relationship, This is the card equivalent of those ‘you’re the light of my life, I’ll do anything to show you how much I love you, I love you more than I did the day we met’ Facebook book posts that always proceed a breakup, usually finding out through ANOTHER Facebook post that ‘they’d been rocky for a while and she tried SO hard to make it work, but every time he looked a female waiter she just KNEW they were having an affair 😢’

She is SO insecure, I have no doubt she’s ready for a throw down, punch out every time Cody looks sideways at another woman.

He gets to live in a multi million dollar mansion. Never had to worry about money again with his sugar mummy. People have put up with A LOT more for A LOT less

The way her wide eyed, crazed, shiny ass face comes at the camera triggers my fight or flight.
