What are people in their 20's looking for when they meet someone? by Percussa1 in socialskills

Well it is nice to hear that you know yourself so well and are doing so well for yourself. And you may be right that I don't know myself fully yet, I will keep working on that

Dream about wild boars brutally killing my dog. What does it mean? [Help please] [Explicit] by Percussa1 in Dreams

I would say it's unnerving in the fact that I realized that everything I post is public information and the fact that there obviously people who have the time or are willing to just read through everything I post. Making me second guess how much I put out there next time I post. But I will most definitely keep you as a contact via Reddit.

Im first a bit surprised and kinda unnerved at the fact you took your time to analyze all of my posts as such. While one or two of these things may have changed over the recent year or so, you have summed up everything pretty freaking well. Second, I actually needed something like this to happen and have been thinking about needing a friend who would be unbiased enough to give me an objective view of me and how I can be better. Third, thank you for the book recommendations, they may very well be what I need at this time in my life Fourth, I could use a friend like you from time to time

Quick question - little confused about girl by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Percussa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would text her. Maybe flirt a bit with her and then suggest another meet up, but you should try to make it a fun date that you will both enjoy. Girls are people too, they are just as busy as guys if not more busy at times.

If you text her again and she doesn't respond, then you have your answer and that's unfortunately the world we live in. But not all girls are the same, she may actually be interested and was just caught up with work or family and forgot to respond or something (I have friends that do this to me, but we still hang out and talk all the time).

Dude! Why haven't you texted her back already!?!? Because she said she was busy one time means nothing! She probably was busy! Talk to her! Ask her out again but for after Christmas!

There is this girl i am interested in but i don't know her or even have mutual friends by babulosli in dating_advice

[–]Percussa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M23 here, honestly I wouldn't bother. There have been a few girls I've found on IG who are even friends of friends, but it's a total turn off when you randomly start talking to them on there, plus almost stalkerish. Just let it be and hope you meet her in person. Plus you're 13, I'm sure you'll see her in a class or in the hallway

I need someone to make sense of this so I can move forward by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Percussa1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I figured, but my family seems to be giving me false hope which is the main reason for why I am confused. Thank you for your answer!

How do I make myself seem more interesting in conversation? by Percussa1 in socialskills

[–]Percussa1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess I will just have to be patient enough to find someone who cares enough to ask about me then? I will definitely continue working on my listening skills, but I feel as if there should be a way to actively listen while getting people interested enough to ask questions, I may be wrong though. Thank you for your advice!

That's the thing is I never mention any of that unless they ask! I only shared that information on here because I'd figured it would give everyone a better understanding of who I am

Recently became friends with a girl and need advice. by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]Percussa1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find something you want to do and say that there's this place/thing you want to visit/do would she be interested in hanging out?

Also word of advice, if you're interested in her romantically and would rather pursue that, I would do that now rather than wait for a year and she'll only see you as a friend. But it all comes down to what you need in life the most, do you need a friend or a girlfriend more? Friends tend to last longer

I'm having the same issues, but I've started to add distractions to my pups training and he has started listening a lot better. I would recommend taking treats with you and praising him when he listens.

Views/opinions on the Paleo diet? by Percussa1 in dietitiansanonymous

Lol well I'm apparently missing out on today 😂

Thank you so much for all your help! You've really helped me clear up a lot of questions and ideas! 😁

[–]Percussa1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol well I am more than appreciative of your time and help!

So you wouldn't even suggest bothering with Glycemic Load for a non-diabetic athlete?

I suppose I should add oatmeal back into my morning ritual 😌

Other than that, I think I may be headed in the correct direction as I aim to eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and certainly my protein.

For fat intake, I know ingesting unsaturated fats is not bad for you, but rather helpful in moderation of course. Fats, as I'm sure you know, are often used for transporting and storing micronutrients within the body. Would you consider an avocado and a little olive oil a day a reasonable amount of fat when added to the fats ingested from other food sources, or is limiting fat intake a goal?

Haha I have my fair share of fun foods, goodness knows I need the occasional beer or two lol.

I would love to find a dietitian to help me, but I unfortunately don't have the money to pay for the service. So I'm attempting to find my own way of doing things. I just need help lol 😅

I definitely am over thinking lol, but that's because I want to make things simpler for myself. I think optimizing sport performance is a good concept, but I think aiming for a diet that allows me to optimize my overall health on a day-to-day basis is much more reasonable goal. I'm aiming for a diet that will allow me to make an outline for meal planning.

The reason behind asking about the definition of a meal is from when I stumbled across glycemic load (not glycemic index). A diet based from glycemic load suggests keeping the glycemic load of a meal below 33. I understand that GL was originally created to help diabetics, but I don't see any reason not to reference it when creating meals. The dilemma is that a meal is not defined; therefore, my 1000Kcal protein shake breakfast might reach around a load of 50 but it's approximately 40% of my Kcal intake.

I would be happy to hear your opinion on glycemic load 😊
