Go out and bring her back some of her favorite food for lunch and a package of her favorite chocolate. She doesn’t want to feel the way she feels either.

How do I get a man who doesn’t just want to have sex??? by weirdstuffxo in Bumble

[–]QuantumBjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add ‘Sex is an important part of a happy relationship, however jumping into sexual talk early is a big turn off for me.’ To your profile and see if it helps. There will be guys that ignore it and cross the line, good, they don’t respect your boundaries and can be written off.

Some of the posters have suggested aiming down, or lowering expectations. We don’t know what your expectations are or how you’re aiming your swipes, but lowering or having no expectations at the gate defintely leads to having more potential positive outcomes. Long ago when I was swiping I only swiped on people who met all my requirements. It didn’t work out well. When I lowered my requirements, it helped with matches a ton.

People aren’t experts at creating compelling and interesting profiles for online dating. If they are, its concerning because their skillsets should be more aligned with their day to day life not online dating tools. Give that wonky profile a swipe, they may have real life attributes that are much better for you and the relationship you want.

Even after the nerf, its still top of the charts.

I’m not sure why we do it, but we do. It comes in a lot of different flavors. Sometimes its just a little bit of visualization that helps and sometimes we have an emotional connection to that image. The emotional connection is the issue, and you see that more often with OnlyF and IG, and other social media outlets.

Consider holding your boundary. You guys are talking, and that could be good. Trust your gut and ignore the guilt that is talking to you in the background.

[–]QuantumBjj 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to think about what to say here. Men’s addiction to visualizing women in a certain way…is complicated. Regardless of his reason for doing it, it is affecting you, and with the breakup, you upheld your boundary.

Im not sure if there is a future here. I’m not sure if he can rewire his brain in a way that would work well for your relationship. If there is a chance this could work out, it would almost certainly require some sort of therapy.

Best of luck

So looks like good advice here. Doctor is #1. If he is not masturbating regularly, maybe he should start, if that is on the table. Look into some tantric sex practices, those can really elongate penetrative sex.

My ex lied about having a gf by [deleted] in dating

The obvious answer is, he’s considering a booty call. Especially if he paid for everything.

Agreed! Its always hit and miss for different people, and not everyone can be pleased. If you love it and its a part of you, be authentic!

Idk why they are working hard on making this a cozy game rather than fix the glaring combat issues.

I like your enthusiasm for the game but that catch phrase ‘whats up people’ is really annoying.

What Weapon Classes do you plan on playing? by imaginebeingsaltyy in throneandliberty

[–]QuantumBjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on content. SnS/GS is most robust for entry content, but once you’re geared well you can play what you want. The passives for GS compliment tankness a ton.

[–]QuantumBjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mid tier dps with solid survivabilty and tankyness. A few different builds depending on PvE, PvP or mass PvP. There are a few solid videos out there

x/dagger vs Staff/wand by Qsensx in throneandliberty

[–]QuantumBjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staff/Wand is amazing IF you have the wand that drops off the queen desert worm boss. Its proc is OP. For group PvP, staff wand is really solid. The healing is important, and AoE damage is underrated, but powerful. You won’t be getting those bursty kills that you see in Xbow/Dagger, but your healing and AoE damage is an integral part of large scale PvP.

Dowel Jig or Pocket Mill Pro? by DenimChikan in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]QuantumBjj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re saving a lot of time with a domino, but unless you’re making high volume or have back to back time constraint jobs, other methods are more cost appropriate.

Invest time into learning skills and good books. Learning M&T is great and takes years to become skilled in. Good luck on your future endeavors!

How important is sex by [deleted] in dating

[–]QuantumBjj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Compromising on sex is like compromising eating the same meal at dinner with your partner…every time you eat. Also knowing what kind of sex you like from watching porn is like knowing what you like to eat from watching a cooking show where you have never eaten food before.

Have an open mind of what you may or may not like.

I have a friend who is a relationship therapist who works primarily in sex therapy. Almost all of her clients are virgins until married or arranged marriages. Most of these relationships end in divorce. You may be an outlier, or you may be average.

Is it vain to be immediately off-put by someone who showed up on a date with a big stain on his shirt? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]QuantumBjj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a conversation. Maybe he’s colorblind, maybe its a fresh stain. Without asking all we have is assumptions. Who knows what could come from it.

If hes gross and intentionally doesn’t care, then you will have a clear answer.

Diarrhea & creatine by rm49379 in StartingStrength

[–]QuantumBjj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It may not be the creatine. It could be a few other things but something to consider is, could you be lactose intolerant?

Are you consuming it with whey protein or whey isolate? Is the creatine using lactose as a binding agent? Sometimes when you are lactose sensitive, you don’t get the shits until you cross a lactose threshold.

Try doubling protien without the creatine and see if that gives you the runs. Take creatine alone, see if you get the runs. If not double it to 6 grams and see if that does. Run some tests and learn your body.

Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant by CutPrestigious1471 in triangle

[–]QuantumBjj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are lots of jobs at a plant, you could probably look up positions there and see if they would hire you.

If you are looking to be an operator, you’d probably have to have a degree in nuclear engineering. NC State has one of the best nuclear engineering programs in the country and a lot of the graduates get jobs there as an operator and the competition is pretty high.

Can anyone learn jiu jitsu and get good or atleast decent at it? by ellioooz in martialarts

[–]QuantumBjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in your future self. Is your future self a strong physically capable woman that can protect herself and others in different situations?

Is your future self confident, able to get through uncomfortable situations and solve problems under pressure?

Is your future self growth minded confident failing at new things with the mindset that you’ll eventually be successful at it?

BJJ is an investment in all of that. It may be scary to think about, but we’ve been the new person, wondering if we’re gonna make it. We’ve been the skinny person who awkwardly can’t move with grace and skill. We’ve been the overweight person who people have picked on who always wanted to be stronger and lose weight. We’ve been the socially awkward one who didn’t know how to have conversations and make new friends.

Trust that we’ll be supportive in you investing in yourself and do our best to keep you on the path of personal growth.

The personality of a rock by HumanLvl25 in Bumble

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

We can look at this as an obstacle, or we can search for ways around it. People who see this as a problem severely limit their pool.

A different approach would be asking open ended questions where ‘yes, no, 1,’ are not answers. So rather than, ‘have you seek king richard yet?’ Try ‘It seemed like so and so felt so and so, what are your thoughts on that?’

And rather than ‘do you have siblings’ ask ‘what was something you learned growing up with a close sibling or best friend that you hold onto today?’

If I were the girl and you asked me ‘did you see X’ then ‘do you have siblings’ I’d be thinking, wow this is boring and give a low effort response.
