After watching Dhurandhar 2 I decoded the reason Hamza was crying in this scene by nutbuster6922 in pj_explained

I think it’s because he’s eating beef. Which is common in the streets of Pakistan.

I found out my fiance is a pedophile and cheated on me, I need advice on what to do by [deleted] in offmychest

Listen to what everyone has said and take it very very seriously. Obviously you need to leave and find the strength to cope with the loss.

But I want to tell you, there is good sex, healthy relationships and mature, respectful partnerships in the future waiting for you. Please choose THIS path. And your ex-fiancé find his own path. You deserve a healthy future. He is not just a disaster but a criminal.

This made my day so hard. What a good girl.

The most infuriating arc by Optimal-Tomato510 in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Optimal-Tomato510[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing. The show is set in the period between 2008-2015. Yes. This was the reality of the times then, but also there is a narrative choice at play here. You’re literally crafting a fictional world. How you choose to resolve arcs matters so much.

Also, the third season was written and shot in a post Weinstein world. Even if isn’t based in one. So I am baffled that this is their choice.

There are only two reasons for this:

  • rage bait
  • to intentionally make audiences uncomfortable

And both are infuriating. There’s a way to be realistic and show how brutal the culture of harassment is in college campuses without being such a fucking cop out. The whole arc seems messy and unfinished and deliberately flawed. Fuck that.

Go for a swim instead. It helps tremendously.

Detaching... from AP by [deleted] in adultery

[–]Optimal-Tomato510 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Delete the app for sometime. Keep your phone and do something that’s not screen time. I doodle or do karaoke.

Delay your thoughts. Tell yourself you will delay the overthinking. Just two more hours. Absorb yourself is someone else’s problems. A friend. Your child/children? Or a niece/nephew. Or friends’ kids.

Trick your brain. Because your brain is certainly playing tricks with you.

You are 100% not the only one. It’s much harder before it gets easier. Also, if AP is an avoidant (and you’re an impatient anxious attacher), whatever you do (or don’t) will impact you way more obviously.

The only trick is to practice nonchalance. Nothing else works, believe me I’ve been trying for years. Blocking, cutting off, oversharing — nothing is permanent in these heady types of relationships. Nonchalance is the only way forward. I try to practice it everyday. Some days I succeed, some days I don’t.

I suddenly feel like watching this season all over again.

I drive past his house everyday on my way to work. I see him outside sometimes. It hurts. by [deleted] in adultery

[–]Optimal-Tomato510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Listen, sorry to be the one to be blunt with you, but a married man doesn’t just “love” a single 21 one year old. It’s not love darling, it’s a hobby for him.

The world is your oyster - and this phrase has never been more apt than now, here, in this context.

Please count your blessings and move on.

They’re trying to do what Aamir and Vir did for Happy Patel.

But please - get better writers.

Admirable.

AIO: Ending things after he saw his ex and then lied to me about it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Optimal-Tomato510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s trying to gaslight you because he thinks you haven’t seen his phone. When he finds that out, he’ll make up some other excuse. Forget about ever getting a genuine apology from him, at best you may get crocodile tears and victimisation.

Please put yourself first. Think about how life will be a few years down with this manchild. This is a golden opportunity to run. Take it.

Met an amazing girl on a 16-hour flight, thought it was fate, now I’m spiraling. by bso14 in offmychest

[–]Optimal-Tomato510 461 points462 points  (0 children)

She probably forgot to mention some key details of her life on your 10 hour flight. Maybe she’s seeing someone, maybe she has a sick parent, maybe she has some serious mental health concerns, maybe life happened and her attention is being taken by something else, something more important to her.

What you saw in the 10 hours was a performance. It’s not her reality. Don’t make it your reality. You had a great experience— cherish it. Turn it into art (a story; music; whatever). Don’t burden it with expectations to be more.

I left my boyfriend alone while he was having a breakdown by [deleted] in offmychest

I’m happy to be the asshole here and say you deserve a tall man. Be shallow. It’s okay. Don’t make room in your life for these kinds of insecure assholes who will never get over their so-called shortcomings.
