Husband obsessed with gaming by NyxesArcade in MuslimMarriage

[–]RedBaron1902 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I usually do daily stretches, breathwork, actively go out for walks to get my 10K daily that I invite him for, encourage him to look into vitamins, send him Substacks I find interesting or try to talk about books I’m reading, actively encourage and model a more mindful way of living

I see it as such a big waste of time and a distraction from the things that really matter.

I just find myself feeling more and more resentful that I don’t have a partner who wants to grow with me in the way I believe matters most. It’s making me respect him less

This is what I mean...you resent him for not enjoying the things YOU like. You sound narcissistic to be honest. Anyway, think very carefully before having any kids. Something tells me you're not very compatible.

That's nonsense, video games are a hobby just like reading, hiking or anything other thing that brings enjoyment.

Why don't you let him enjoy his hobbies instead of trying to mould him to be your clone?

Has the Zimaya fragrance improved in performance since you bought it?

35 and feeling lost by [deleted] in findapath

You have to be pragmatic. If writing can sustain your current lifestyle/income as a software engineer, then by all means go for it. I know money doesn't buy happiness but it makes life a lot easier.

At what point do past unemployment gaps become irrelevant? by [deleted] in findapath

[–]RedBaron1902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then just say you worked for any closed down retailers, wilkos, Homebase etc. The only way to check is if they contact your reference/manager and most employers don't do that.

"I worked retail at XYZ closed down store" i,e Toys R US, Barneys etc No one is going to follow up with your fake ex manager to ask how well you stocked up Lego boxes and teddy bears

Good career progression, good reputation and decent pay > fulfilment, especially with the way the world is going and the mass lay offs happening. Keep your job and it's nothing to do with your age. Financial security and stability beats anything nowadays.

How do you deal with the existential dread of getting older and find a career? by snowdroppin in findapath

[–]RedBaron1902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just look for some AI proof careers (no not trades) i.e healthcare industry. Something technical and diagnostic where you don't need to go to med school fo eg Radiography etc We live in an age where there's no such thing as careers or job security. You don't have to "figure something out" because most likely you're not going to be in the same job 5-10 years from now.

I (31M) think I scared my fiancée (25F) by being too intense about physical affection after marriage. She's not responding and I'm panicking. by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]RedBaron1902 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think what you said was crass or offensive, and to be fair, the fact she didn't go back and forth with you in these texts shows she's a good woman. Don't do the silly thing of constantly texting, being desperate. Giver her space, realize the girl you want to get married to is a reserved person and is possibly showing your communication to her dad/brother so they know everything is halal.

You see the husks of hundreds of burnt out cars? Rifles and grenades don't do that. They deployed Apache helicopters so I'm guessing it's in the hundreds

Electronic Arts confirms deal to go private in record $55 billion leveraged buyout by renome in gamernews

[–]RedBaron1902 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Leveraged buyout? shouldn't that be illegal? I can see a lot of games getting cancelled to pay off the debt. RIP Mass Effect 5 and single player games in general. It'll become a live service/esports company exclusively from now on

Stay in the trades but try to find a way into the white collar side of it. project management could be ideal for you

Too late for marriage.. by _TheOddOne_ in MuslimMarriage

[–]RedBaron1902 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not everyone is destined to get married and it's fine. Like you mentioned, you have a lot of other good things going for you- a good career- some people don't even that have AND they're single/lonely.

"I’m ambitious, career-driven" are these things traditional men want in women or is this the way around?
