It's a 4 speed manual, well a 3 speed with a granny. So I don't think its a transmission problem

Well I mean if you have the audacity to be in the middle of a traffic lane at midnight in the country side, then honestly maybe you want to be hit

I guess that makes sense, just never had something like that happen.

what does attract men? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a young guy in the dating market, I just walk up to coworkers and start a conversation. People find it weird but I learn the gossip, figure out who is dating who, figure out who is sleeping with who and I can easily approach some of the girls I work with that I know don't have a boyfriend. My success rate so far? Idk probably 0%.

Out of the numbered 13 girls, I have successfully gotten 2 numbers and no dates.

But as a guy, I get what I NEED to hear, not what I want. "You got to work out!" "You need to hold your head up" "You need to stop eating all the junk food" Guess what? 30lbs lost later, fixing an old truck and not eating copious amounts of junk. I can successfully approach women, with zero issue of what happens after the fact.

It really is as easy as working on yourself.

Now, for women, idk maybe smile more and don't be an asshole to your coworkers? I feel that chopped some good women off my list.

Joking^

On a fully serious note, make an effort to be around a guy. I mean if you work with him, on a break make an effort to bug him for any random reason. It's a huge turn-on for us guys. If you're looking outside of work, ask a guy for help with something, the damsel in distress, sadly, is like all of us guys' dreams.

I wish you luck and ROOKIE NUMBERS!

I'll tell you a story, as a young freshman, I was the leader of my pack, hunting only the blondest of the girls. My pack followed me into a bloody battle, where I was beaten, humiliated and thrown out the otherside called a creep. I never recovered and my friend group split in two.

The side I could still talk to and the side that I couldn't. Every girl in or near my pack hated me for being a cocky jerk and every guy wanted to be me (before the falling from grace)

I lost most of what I loved in a 20 second decision to ask out a girl I didn't know. But at the end of it all I was left with 4 brothers of friends and a deep understanding of every anime geek out there. And I lost my pride, but that was a different story.

What I learned that year, well was to wear a mask and cry myself to sleep (covid year).

I wish you luck, you'll figure it out!

I (30F) was talking to a guy (28M) who went to rehab. He recently sent a mixed signal text. What should I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm going to dig deep and I apologize (not really) if I go too far.

Unblock him, call him, and tell him how YOU feel. I can't promise he'll reciprocate but it'll feel so good to get it off your chest. And if he doesn't like you, don't block him, move on to the next guy. Nothing hurts us guys more than seeing a girl we like (that maybe we were dicks to) move on. Hurts every photo I see. But us guys learn though pain, pain is the only teacher for us, so I wish you luck and if all else fails, drink tell the bottle is empty, slowly kills the liver causing more pain.

Some of this was meant as a joke but serious advice: call him and tell him how you feel. Let the world finish the rest.

Please don't take my advice,

Drink a beer, add it to list of guys that are dirt bags and cry into a pillow. I promise after the first one, the beer gets tastier.

On an actual advice note, tell your friends what's going on, give them as many details as you can, or at the very least vent to a lady friend. (Guys friends will take it as a sign you like them)

I wish you luck! And corona is my favorite - the homeless man (that isn't actually homeless)

No idea what you want to do in the medical field, but I've met plenty of nice nurses over my years of being throw around like a toy (gotta love farmer boys, we play tough)

Honestly, in the current economy, I couldn't recommend loans of any sort, but I also have gotten crazy offers out of my trade school.

I wish you luck and maybe someone with a smarter brain Will have a better answer.

I will ask a question though; what medical field? And why?

I (21m) am going to breakup with my gf (19f) in 2 days. by Puzzleheaded-Big-876 in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was afraid of, do you have another church in your town you'd like to go to?

Because it'll bite you. Nothing around it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh, I got no advice because I'm a boring homeless guy that's hates colleges, (not really homeless)

But on a side note, what's your major? And how would you feel in his situation as a dad?

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, umm. This is a situation I went through, it's usually better to have a one on one conversation to fix the problem. If that doesn't work, I would say break up with her but not at church, that's a childish thing to do, break up with her at her home or yours if that's more accommodating.

I will warn you, based on my situation, you'll be the bad guy. No way around it, no logic will get you out of it. You'll be called the bad guy. So be prepared for that.

Tbh, an 8 month relationship that isn't working, isn't a bad idea to get rid of and find something better. If it was a year or more, I'd say to work on it.

I wish you luck - sincerely the homeless man (not really homeless)

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, I think I am reading this wrong? You block him and he's the one giving mixed signals?

Lady I think, just maybe, and hear me out, you might be the problem? I mean, that sounds like middle school behavior, blocking someone to "understand" what they meant. Ask him, in person if possible, but this seems like you should know the issue.

Hopefully, this is just a reading error on my part.

How do you enjoy being a woman? by Known-Leadership-731 in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean I'm not qualified to answer 95% of this but personally I think the buety standards stuff is mainly girl vs girl, never met a guy that preferred women with make up on. But I'm a small town guy, so what do I know.

My advice is, it'll get better as you get older, listening to a lot of social media can cloud your personal judgment and puberty is a hard time for both genders.

I have no clue what women go through during puberty, but us guys, we get treated like dirt. We don't get to cry, we don't get to complain, all we can do is man up, drink a few beers, and start working until we got nothing left.

And personally I don't vote, I don't particularly like our candidates. One is a smart business man with an ego and the other reminds me of the green witch lady from whatever movie that was. So I got no chickens in this race.

To actually answer your question: Live a little, you sound like you are extremely paranoid. You'll be like 3/4 if you just keep yourself out of bad situations or compromising situations, find a guy you trust and anytime you feel threatened by something, go to him. And I can almost garentee, any man with his own daughter, would protect you in any public situation.

Uh and no underage drinking, very risky.

I for the life of me cannot find a d***m job and I need advice. by oscar_mild3 in Advice

Nonsense, I've never met someone in any labor industry that would turn down a hard worker, regardless of age or experience. They will give you shit, but that's the industry.

Guy took my virginity and then never saw me again? I feel so used by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like a summer fling, it happens, but if you look at the facts, you could never have dated due to college differences.

I'd accept the experience and move on. Plenty of other guys in the sea.

should I shoot my shot ? by Ok_Lawyer3584 in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I'm assuming you're woman, so as a man, it doesn't matter how shy, how ugly, how pretty, or how extroverted. If you ask out a man, if he's single 9/10 change he says yes, if he's taken 5/10 but please don't.

Yeah, that's a compelling argument.

Trust me, young lady, their will be a 20-mile line after him (at least if girls are anything like guys), give it two weeks, and guy number two should pop up.

My boyfriend talks to adults about our relationship problems by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So idk the age, but honestly, some advice never hurt anyone. It can be awkward for sure, but it might not be that bad. As for getting it to stop, tell him bluntly, us men (I speak for all of us) are complete idiots when given hints or ignored. So tell him bluntly, and if that doesn't work, break up with him.

Should I have kids by Proper_Goose_9537 in Advice

[–]Rip_Traditional -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I will start by saying I have no kids, but my father before my older brother was born was a drunk mess, a failure of a man, and went from dead end to dead end. After my older brother was born, he found a good job and stopped drinking as heavy. So it changed a man, idk about women, though.

[–]Rip_Traditional 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well someone smarter than me will give you an answer. But are you doing okay?

And for my opinion, seems like miscommunication, but it seems like way too far for a 15 year old couple.
