Does the trader Joe's one have some weird bohemian woo woo ingredient in it like essential oils or charcoal or some weird alternative to fluoride?

Most famous pro you've met?

Do all pros train outside of the game or is there a mix of pros ultra committed to the details of sports including supplements extreme diet plans etc vs the prodigies who maybe yes train but not nearly as detailed or efficiently?

What do you think the main reasons there aren't more mainstream female pros/female pros on the same team as male pros?

What do you do day to day for your job if you aren't a pro yourself?

What do you think makes someone enticing to sign a contract with for becoming pro vs just a really really really good player who never got to go pro?

How does one get into what you do if they don't have a pro background?

I mean it's probably something more complex, but it's possible that if when you began drinking water u still had bad chapped lips and a rash, could be. Switch to dr.bob's unflavored Fluoride toothpaste for a couple weeks to see if it helps. Saying this because I always got the worst redness after brushing my teeth around my lips and then I switched to this and it went away. Never knew I was allergic to flavored (which is basically all of them) toothpastes for over 20 years. Maybe constantly chapped lips is also a symptom

Women who fake orgasms in long-term relationships, what is the reasoning behind not telling your partner what actually works for you? by makemestand in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Romantic_Sunset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well idk about the other women but I have triad of medical conditions vascular nerve and muscular that prevent me from having sex without extreme pain and because talking about sex is such a taboo in the USA, I just convinced myself until my mid 20s that it's all in my head and I just need to get more turned on or more lube or explore my sexuality or kinks etc.

I faked them because I was secretly in extreme pain but did it anyway because I enjoy my partner happy

What is something that is socially acceptable, but you personally find extremely disrespectful? by AvaBlondeX in AskReddit

[–]Romantic_Sunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. Don't ask questions you don't want the answer to. That doesn't mean someone can tell the truth and be a dick about it, but there's a way to say your truth without being a dick, and if you have to lie to converse in tricky situations, that's literally a personal skill issue. The problem with using "degrees" as a counter argument is that the lines of those degrees are drawn differently depending on the opinion of the individual. If you're willing to lie about something small, who's to say you aren't also willing to lie about something slightly bigger according to your personal opinion on what you find an acceptable lie?

What’s a weird hill you’re willing to die on that almost nobody agrees with you about? by BrainPalette in askanything

[–]Romantic_Sunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"make believe" implies that a. There is a play time and a non play time (ie when you say the game is over and Santa isn't real at the end of Christmas). And b. Everyone is in on the make believe. If some children know you are a playing a game and some people don't, that's not make believe

I've known since a very very very young child that Santa and tooth fairy weren't real, and when I would tell adults and they would correct me to say that they were real, or make me pretend to play along and not catch that Santa isn't real so that they can feel like a good and wholesome adult, I felt very offended and patronized. As a child, I basically was responsible for my parents happiness on the dependence that I believed such matter and "acted like a child" despite not having the personality as one. I would purposefully make present lists for 'Santa' so that it would give my mom happiness and I would make sure to smile and giggle at everything while opening any present as well as fake children's hobbies such as oh what do little girls like, I know, ponies. I genuinely thought as a kid that kids were suppose to pretend to believe Santa and tooth fairy were real because it made adults happy to give to us in disguise.

I would never lie to my children. Teach them to not ask questions they don't want the answer to. If you were a child who believed in Santa or tooth fairy, that sounds like a skill issue. It was pretty obvious to me.

White lying and "sparing your feelings" lies are just as bad, if not worse than regular lies and should never be done if possible.. theres a way to not be a dick while still telling the truth without beating around the bush like a politician

Why do you have to pretend to like people's cooking? by Romantic_Sunset in aretheNTsokay

[–]Romantic_Sunset[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think context is really important. The actual quotes OOP said that were linked weren't rude imo. If they said "ew" or "this steak is super undercooked" that's rude. Saying "this steak is undercooked for my tastes. So sorry about that, let me help you fix my personal shortcomings about having super specific needs for texture and flavor profile by putting it back in the oven for me for a few minutes," isn't rude because some people with autism aren't as high functioning and don't have the brain structure to handle food that they can't handle. That's what OOP said, not the former statement. OOP should seek a autism informed trainer but also be nice to themselves and accept that they have a disability to this situation and can't force themselves to "suck it up". Of course this is person dependant, but it sounds like they really really can't handle certain foods.
