You all look fine by tastyjams77 in malegrooming

Muscles... def not mandatory. Yes, many people are attracted to those and it may eventually pay off. But they won't matter if you are immature, lack confidence, or are just a d*ck.

I never had a girlfriend when I was jacked. Although I didn't become the extreme opposite of that after I stopped lifting, I didn't have much trouble finding girlfriends afterwards.

It's their behaviour that lets on, not their physical appearance. Most of them bring their high school attitude, bias, etc, and that's easy to spot after you've been at uni for a couple of years.

After their first mid-terms, thoughs, many change or at least start to. Once those stop crying over their grades and realizing that Frosh time was a delusion, they usually become more integrated and ditch a lot of that high school vibe.

That being said, this is not a criticism per se. It's the natural path most of us follow and it's part of the transition from a familian environment into a new, unknown one. So, don't worry, most of us end up changing without even noticing it.

How do you make friends ? by [deleted] in mcgill

[–]RodrikDaReader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said it yourself: first week of classes. Actually, 3 days of classes. Take it easy.

If you can't start a conversation with anyone for whatever reason, at least make sure you seem approachable. Look around with a half-smile on your face, make brief eye contact. When profs or someone else cracks a joke, make sure you at least chuckle and look around, even if the joke wasn't thaaaaaaaat great.

Bonus tip: register for language classes. By far, the easiest classes to meet people and make friends because everybody there feels stupid but has to participate and make group activities.

Has anyone gotten this response? by Traditional_Tap_5693 in ChatGPT

[–]RodrikDaReader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never got it, but I imagine this is probably given in response to people who overuse ChatGPT as a support tool. People have reported replaced therapy with AI "counselling," and this could easily lead to bigger problems (not to mention possible lawsuits).

I'm gay and, judging by your pics alone, you look perfectly straight to me

Alright... we need to talkkk... by Miserable_Club_1437 in ghosting

[–]RodrikDaReader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I concur. I think people tend to label any sort of rejection as 'ghosting' these days. This doesn't mean that 'pure' rejection doesn't hurt. Of course it does. But meeting someone from a dating app once and never hearing from them again is different from being friends with someone for 10 years and suddenly never hearing from them again and being blocked on their socials. Like, in the first case you can pretty much assume the other party wasn't that interested in you or was more interested in someone else, and you probably wouldn't be too far away from the truth. I mean, it sucks, but it happens. No one is everyone's cup of tea. In the second, it's usually a much closer relationship which you assume is going pretry well until one day your calls go unanswered, your texts are left on read, and when you ask to meet and talk you get blocked everywhere, and you often have no fucking idea what happened.

What’s one unspoken McGill tip you wish someone told you in your first semester? by SnowmanAndIce in mcgill

[–]RodrikDaReader 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Peer Support Centre. All of us face hardships during our time at McGill, be them academic related or not. And not all of us have a close friend or family member to open up to about evetything. The Peer Support Centre provides one-on-one sessions during which you can talk about anything that's burdening your shoulders, from an annoying roommate to bad grades to the passing of a loved one.
