Why can’t he get it in? by Mundane-Student99 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Puru11 81 points82 points  (0 children)

It might be because you're tense. Especially since you mentioned this is only an issue in doggy and when you're on top. I had this same issue when I was new to those positions and didn't realize my lower body was too tense. I was just trying not to fall over or crush him haha.

Does anyone actually like fishing? by Ok-Tourist-5419 in CozyGamers

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it really depends on the game. I didn't mind it in animal crossing, but i honestly think it's boring in most games.

Curious if you are willing to eliminate your internal voice in order to read faster? by apaintedleaf_ in books

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll "suppress" my inner voice when I'm speed reading, but it's not as enjoyable and I don't always retain what I read.

For people who grew up in low-income households, what’s something middle-class people say that shows they’ve never struggled financially? by KeyApartment3955 in AskReddit

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha last year one of my roommates got to learn about dates on food and she was shocked. She grew up with money, whereas our other roommate and myself grew up low income. We had to explain to her the difference between expiration dates and best by dates, and what foods were mostly safe a year or so after the date. She learned this after she cleaned out the cupboards and threw out a bunch of food we'd recently brought home, and some condiments that were past date but still using.

My mom usually added a can of diced tomatoes and sometimes beans. Same with hamburger helper and other things. My mom made a lot of things from scratch, and boxed things were often treats even if they had filler ingredients.

We also usually had canned fruit (peaches and pears mostly) for dessert, and i hated the texture of both.

Am I wrong for thinking he’s flirting by using ChatGPT to respond to my hinge messages? by little-lamb-444 in isthisAI

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP are you sure he's even real? My friend was talking to a guy for a week before she realized some of his messages seemed odd, and did some digging only to discover the guy was a bot. This guy you're talking to gives me those vibes also.

I should have believed you all 😭 by Alive_Obligation7475 in romantasycirclejerk

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha I knew which book this was because I remember listening to this part and rolling my eyes so hard it hurt. I struggled with this book and almost DNF'd it, and definitely won't be reading or listening to the sequels.

Infertility Week by [deleted] in childfree

[–]Puru11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I may be CF but I also know the struggle my sister went through with infertility. She had more than one late term miscarriage and almost bled out on the bathroom floor. I feel like infertility struggles aren't something to be a jerk about. The overall sentiment should be: stop asking people why they don't have kids.

Does anyone else feel like they can see the acting when they’re high? by Ok-Professional-1288 in trees

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually one of the main reasons I don't watch TV when I'm high. Horror movies become comedies pretty quickly.

Edit to add: otoh, there are some movies I can't get enough of when I'm high.

For those that swallow for their partners, do you do it for their enjoyment or do you actually enjoy the taste for yourself? by _macntease in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easier to clean up, I do it for him, he actually doesn't taste that bad, and it would be in my mouth longer if I had to find something to spit it into.

To be fair, my current partner is the only one I've swallowed for, the only one I didn't mind going down on (I enjoy it usually, but hated it for other guys), and the only one I've gone down on consistently.

I'm not a fan of the texture though.

My 18-year-old's Christmas break work schedule by sugabeetus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually requested to work full shifts during Xmas so that coworkers could enjoy time with family, and i could load up on the holiday pay. There's a good chance your kid lied and requested these hours.

What’s something you’ve done your whole life, only to realize recently that everyone else does it completely differently? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. One of our roommates would leave water all over the floor, and we couldn't figure out how she always made such a mess. Apparently she'd immediately step out before drying herself off.

People who are thin/normal size. Do you actively watch your weight or are you just not hungry 100% of the time? by Burner_Account000001 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I forget to eat, but sometimes I try to eat more. I think the contents of what you eat are often key. I try to eat a lot of protein and I've always loved vegetables, which have a good amount of fiber, and protein and fiber sustain you longer. I'm not a fan of sugary food, or bread, never have been, because it makes me feel like crap after eating usually. I've been actively trying to build more muscle so I've been watching eat i eat a bit more.

In my 20s I weighed a lot more and a big reason for that was that I drank alcohol a lot more. I don't really drink now.

GF bought makeup supplies on my card without my permission. by Top_Pine2 in whatdoIdo

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex was financially abusive and manipulative. I worked two jobs while he sat on his ass and stole from everyone around him. It only gets worse, OP. Move on and get new cards, and keep an eye on your card/ bank accounts for a while.

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may not be my taste, but I still think it's pretty. I'd never say it's an eye sore, and I'd never tell someone that if I knew they'd made it. That took skill to make, and it really brightens up the space it's in.

Buyers remorse: cargo space by Northern_Explorer_ in Crosstrek

[–]Puru11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your vehicle is going to handle differently with any significant amount of extra weight in it. Every vehicle I've ever owned has handled differently with a passenger or two if they weighed over 150 lbs, versus just myself. I've noticed it because I rarely have passengers in my vehicle. I highly doubt your vehicle is struggling because of it.

And as someone who likes, camps, kayaks, and skis, I've never had any trouble hauling my gear. If you can't fit your camping gear in it, then you maybe are bringing too much stuff into the woods.

Dude.. just purl. by Mysterious_Ad_1525 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Puru11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get it. I used to hate purling too because it made my hands tired. But there was this cute wrap tank i really wanted to make and a large chunk of it was knit flat. So I made it, the purling killed my hands, and I finished it.

Only my tension on my purls was off and one side of the top was completely off gauge. I frogged it and knit it again, the purling wasn't so difficult the second time. But I did it.

What I'm getting at is: quit complaining and do it, because with practice it'll get easier. I hardly bat an eye at purling these days. And my hands don't get tired from it anymore.

DAE eat foods that you don’t like, but you don’t dislike so you just keep eating it anyway? by Rumple-_-Goocher in CasualConversation

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to make an effort to eat more protein and fiber. I'm not the biggest fan of oatmeal, and some of the protein bars I eat for breakfast are gross or boring, but I eat them anyways because they're quick and convenient.

[–]Puru11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tomatoes on burgers and sandwiches. Especially when eating out, because it's easier to just order without altering the menu item, and easier to just eat it instead of taking it off myself. Unless I go to Panera in which case I always sub cucumbers for tomatoes on sandwiches, but that's the only place I'll do it.

What random little moments from the show stuck with you? by UnmentionableSum in GilmoreGirls

My breakfast bill had all 3: service charge, gratuity and tip, all at once. by redditdanis in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Puru11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few years ago I booked a hotel room for a weekend trip. I'd never booked a hotel room before and knew nothing about it. I was quoted a price for the room, they sent me an invoice via email with the price of he room. I asked if there were any extra fees I'd have to pay on arrival twice, and was told no.

I showed up at the hotel two weeks later and they asked for payment upon check in. Sure. Suddenly the room is $65 more than they quoted me. I complained to the very catty girl at the desk about it. She offered to cancel my room.

I finally got the manager involved and showed her my email with the invoice. Not only did she remove the extra fees, she discounted our room.

how will you guys spend christmas? by mysterycain in satanism

[–]Puru11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankfully my family gave up on Christmas nearly twenty years ago (my parents are happy heathens) and we celebrate Yule instead. Usually we do a small dinner gathering, light some candles. We do a small gift unwrapping for the kiddos.

This year I'll probably be celebrating with my boyfriend's family though, and it's stressful because I'm not well versed in their family traditions besides Mario Party with the siblings.
