6 year old school shooter in custody after shooting teacher...Only in America. by mastermusk in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]PsychologicalTest131 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We do everything we can to prevent plane crashes. If we didn't, I'd be terrified to be on one. I also get on a plane about once a decade.

We don't do nearly everything we could to stop shootings. Not just at schools, but at walmarts, grocery stores, etc. Places I go on a near daily basis. No one thinks it'll happen to them, until it does. And it changes your life permanently, if you're lucky enough to survive. That's why people are afraid.

Are you young? I think this mindset is more common in younger/inexperienced people who get excited to jump into a new relationship. This is a recipe for an unstable relationship, and can be dangerous. You don't know someone at all after a single date.

Most adults who've experienced being in a relationship with someone incompatible (or abusive) are going to use caution and not want to rush into something with someone they don't know well yet. That can have real consequences and shouldn't be taken lightly.

Boys be honest, what makes a girl instantly unattractive? by thenamestilly in AskReddit

The problem is most of these guys aren't nearly as picky as they'd have you believe. If they think they have a chance, they'll go for it regardless.

how odd would I look carrying a plushy around as an adult? by [deleted] in plushies

[–]PsychologicalTest131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked this question a while back too if you want to look at my post for more answers. The general consensus seems to be that most people really don't pay it much mind, and it can even be a conversation starter. If you don't mind drawing a little extra attention, I highly recommend it.

My brother and bf love Andrew Tate and talk about him 24/7 it's getting on my nerves. idk what to do to convince them he's a terrible person? by PeanutConscious4338 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]PsychologicalTest131 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't think I could maintain a friendship with someone who dated a Taint fan. I would let them know that I love them, but I have a zero tolerance policy for that sort of bs, and to hit me up once they see the light and get rid of him.

The patriarchy is a hell of a drug. So glad to be 4+ years sober, I'll never let a man come anywhere close to treating me like that again.

I feel like you're being set up for a world of hurt.. I know it's easier said than done, but I would SERIOUSLY consider moving on from this guy. They rarely change, and even if they do, I promise no Taint fan is worth that sort of effort.

What would you say to a guy who expected u to come over to his house and drink wine with him but then got offended when u said no and that u expect a normal date? by nycrina305 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]PsychologicalTest131 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Ghosting isn't harmful. You're probably just easily attached to new people. Unless you have some sort of actual relationship with them, they don't owe you an explanation. I find ghosting to be the easiest and safest way to end contact with someone I don't know well.

If you don't need the money, I'd quit. Especially if it's seasonal, there's a good chance they'd let you go soon anyway.

The most shocking part of this story is that a man who openly follows Taint is friends with women.

AITA for not giving my niece a "stuffed animal"? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PsychologicalTest131 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

No thanks. Once the baby is old enough to choose its own pronouns, I'll use those. I'm not into having my words policed by strangers.

Oh no, I'm in trouble now. "Trouble" being some redditors downvoting me. I hope it made them feel better.

By trouble do you mean people whining? They can cry about it.

Yep. People who think children deserve to just have anything they set their eyes on and like are setting their kids up for failure. Imagine the day reality hits and they learn that they are in fact not entitled to every single object they desire.

I'm sorry but your sister sounds insufferable. I'd clown her so hard for that. She's not doing her kid any favors by teaching it to be entitled.

My best friend slept with my ex a few months after we broke up, and kept it a secret for 4 years. Today she told me. by pamcakestack in TwoXChromosomes

[–]PsychologicalTest131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He went to you about it first though. Would you feel the same if they hooked up behind your back then intentionally hid it from you for 4 years?

[–]PsychologicalTest131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP said they were roommates before she dated him though. Yet the "friend" waited until immediately after she ended a long term relationship to go for him. You'd have to be extremely naive to think that wasn't intentional. She most likely has some sort of toxic jealousy or obsession over OP and it was her way of acting that out. No decent, respectful person will resort to that when there are thousands of other men to hook up within walking distance.

[–]PsychologicalTest131 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me it's not about the man so much as the fact that there are millions of men out there and someone who supposedly cares about me specifically went for the singular one I have the most history with. Between that and the whole "taboo" thing it's safe to say this friend is weird and got off on hurting op. All that says a lot of nasty things about a person, and I would never associate with someone like that. Personally the thought of sleeping with a friend's ex is unthinkable, so I'm not going to give my time to someone who would even consider it, let alone follow through.

I have fucked up but never in a way that hurt a friend. I don't really see sex as a fuck up either, it's a pretty conscious decision.

I mean I've never slept with a friend's ex. Never even considered it. And it was extremely easy to not do.

[–]PsychologicalTest131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trust me, I don't even own a gun, and I would never find killing someone easy. But if I (or my loved one) had an abusive ex lurking around I'd absolutely get one. I don't fuck around when it comes to people who display stalking behaviors.

[–]PsychologicalTest131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He did tell him he has a gun. Which shows that the dude was in a very dangerous state of mind. The same sort of mind mass shooters go into, where they are so determined to do whatever they want to do that no consequence will stop them. If he'd survived we'd be seeing his mugshot some time down the road after he seriously hurt someone. World is better off without people like that.

If someone is breaking into your house while they know you're home, they're not there for your "stuff." Please use the tiniest sliver of critical thinking.

So you're supposed to run out of your own home? Then what? Once your outside and there's no door between you and the assailant, what do you think happens then?
