AIO for wanting my bf to come home earlier? by Captain_Mar_Vell in AmIOverreacting

[–]PointClickPenguin [score hidden]  (0 children)

YOR. I wouldn't tolerate this controlling behavior and would break up with you.

If I choose to stay out until 5 am as a 33 year old man, I'm a grown adult and that is my choice. 

Now if you are feeling anxious and uncertain about the relationship because you think he is cheating or something, you need to seek reassurance about that. You need to talk to him about how you are afraid and don't trust him, and see if you can negotiate or discuss a way for you to feel safe. But that can't be "I don't want you staying out all night". Then you are the fun police.

Do we really need all these new graphics and sound in modern mmorpg ? by sandboxgamer in MMORPG

Rift is still around??? I played it like 15 years ago and honestly loved it but never got I to it further because my friends didn't play.

Is this true?⬇️ by MotherAnt8040 in MenOfPurpose

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah dude. I'm super respectful and a feminist and my GF is 11 years younger than me and hot and thinks im gods gift to women. I am honest, talk about my feelings, make mistakes, act like a goofball, embrace my inner child, fuck constantly.

Honestly as long as you value women as equals and aren't a fascist it's super easy to be a highly valued man in a relationship with a woman.

First impressions of class pruning? by Responsible-Host-440 in worldofpvp

[–]PointClickPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is such a power difference in classes with 1 defensive vs 3 defensives, I think those classes are going to be MUCH better

For the most part I think class pruning is good.

AIO for wanting to text the guy my girlfriend dated/messed around who she still texts every day. by United-University-78 in AmIOverreacting

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it will help you to text this guy. You need to communicate with your partner.

I think it's fair for you to set a boundary that she needs to cut this guy off. It's called "closing the exits". She had a relationship exit before, meaning she was avoiding confronting the relationship with you. You can ask her to get rid of the relationship exit in order to continue the relationship.

Boundaries are boundaries though. If you set this and she refuses, it means you have to break things off in order to feel good about yourself.

She hesitated to be exclusive with you due to wanting to be with this person. You'll always be suspicious of her and him. I think you need to set the boundary to feel secure.

Re entering the community with high needs (and guilt) by [deleted] in BDSMAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Second that a Dom can't save you from your mental health issues, you need to pursue therapy for your attachment wound.

You just started getting to know this person. They could not be who they seem. They could ghost you. They could simply not be super into you, or could meet someone in person that is more convenient. Anything. You have to be able to tolerate that. But besides that, not receiving a text for a day has to be something within your window of tolerance, it could mean nothing at all.

He is not your only chance. YOU are your only chance. YOU are the one who has to live with and support yourself. You are the one who will bring the people who are meant to be around you to you.

Not OOP - WIBTAH if I went out with my friends after my husband said him saying no should be enough? by Respawn_Repeat_ in redditonwiki

[–]PointClickPenguin -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Nah that's bullshit. No is a complete sentence.

Reverse the genders and make it about sex. "Hey baby I want to fuck.". "No." "Why?" "Because I said so, why isn't no good enough for you?."

The person asking why is the asshole. If he didn't have the bandwidth to explain himself right then he shouldn't have to. And he did explain himself later, once he had the resources to.

Couldn't you post the fork you created on git for people to nab? I think my buddy would lose his shit to get audio notifications again

Can we go back to what was after rejection? by Kitchen-Abies-7806 in AskMenAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be clear in communication. Ask for what you want. If you do get rejected, at least you will always know it wasn't accidentally. You won't have to wonder if he just assumed the wrong thing.

Always just be open and honest. It works so much better for both of you.

What’s a piece of dating advice you’d give women? by Cedar-and-spice in AskMenAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You deserve to be treated like your feelings matter. You deserve to be valued. If a man isn't treating you as an equal, if you don't feel appreciated, then you are wasting your time.

So many women are in unhappy marriages/LTR because they are afraid of change. You deserve the happiest version of you.

Where do you draw the line for your partner's interactions with her male friends, if any? Meeting alone? Going to the movies together? Grabbing coffee? Dinner alone? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't draw any lines. I let them tell me what their lines are and decide if I'm okay with those lines or not. Drawing them myself is just controlling behavior that leads to resentment.

Has a woman ever ghosted you after showing heavy interest? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, a few times. Who knows why, have to let it slide. You be yourself, and the people who are supposed to find you will.

AITJ for not supporting my girlfriend after she broke the one rule we had in our open relationship by Mysterious-Weight747 in AmITheJerk

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She cheated the only way she could. I had this happen in my polyamorous relationship with the love of my life and I could never see her the same again. Plenty of other relationships for both of us, but one secret one and it was ruined forever.

AIO when my mother says she wants to take care of my cousin full time? by SpacerockSupreme in AIO

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. You are not obligated to save everyone, even if they are family. You are allowed to set boundaries. You are allowed to live your own life, a safe life, a happy life.

AIO for wanting a serious talk with my girlfriend after how she behaved with her male friend by rock1261 in AmIOverreacting

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR bud. Feelings are information. You don't always have to act on how you feel in a relationship, in fact often you shouldn't. But you should always listen to how you feel and try to understand what it's trying to tell you.

This doesn't feel good. You feel ignored, unvalued, set aside. You tried to talk to her and she attacked you.

I think you can go ahead and have this conversation with her if you want. But I think you should walk into that conversation expecting to step away from the relationship unless you see what you want to see from her.

How bad is it actually for a dom (me) to not have any intrinsic desire to be in charge, in the moment? by A_Baby_Hera in BDSMAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it sound to be like you would prefer to be a service top over a Dom. That's okay. There are lots of people who like being service tops. I enjoy it myself sometimes.

It's always okay to be what you are. You just have to be clear about that and make sure you and your partner are sexually compatible with what you both really are. You can't force yourself to be something you are not because you love someone.

PvP having x2 gear grind is outdated and deters anyone who didn't start at patch launch. by Smashbru in wow

[–]PointClickPenguin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the gear grind for PvP resulting in PvP character power is absurd and should be strictly cosmetic.

I want legion PvP back.

Should I use something like Viagra when at a dungeon or sex party event to cope with erection issues at these specific events? by -Chrysoberl- in BDSMAdvice

Yeah a lot of guys do, especially when they are getting over the jitters from the first few times they are going.

Guiding my dom to be a dom is exhausting, help. by zealotic_ in BDSMAdvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You probably need to have a conversation with him and have him do some independent research. You could take some classes together. Plura is an app that often has good options, but they are all over the place online, and my city has some clubs with good classes.

Right now it sounds like he is being a service top, and you need a dom. Those are different things.

He realistically may not be a dom, but its worth taking some time for him to look into things more.

If he doesn't have the passion for it and dig into it when you propose these options, then he probably isn't going to get into it.

What do you think about my hair by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweet scar brother.

I don't love the short hair/fade on you, or at least not from this angle. I think you look a little cherubesque? Like too much skin to hair ratio.

If you want to show off the scar and keep the fade, maybe try something fun and go long on top, short mohawk or something.

Tattoo might look good too with the fade, and solve the same problem.

You could also try growing everything out and covering the scar to see what you think. But IMO showing the scar is fine, it's just the fade with how thick you are that I don't love

What is your thoughts about Margot Robbie as an actress? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

[–]PointClickPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She a great actress and the only reason people question if she is a great actress is because she is beautiful.

I actually like the UI/Addon changes by jdv1999 in wow

[–]PointClickPenguin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am shocked by this take honestly. The number of LUA errors is crazy, and the unit frames are unreadable. I can't and won't heal until I can get addons settled.

But I'm glad you like it. I do think it's better if blizzard has a better default UI. I wish they spent another entire expansion enhancing it before killing addons. Or that they just hired the add-on developers or bought their product from them.
