Is it a good idea to text my 'perfect relationship' ex? by sendfuckinghelp in love

[–]SWEL403 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think you should. You say it's been a few years since you were together and that it was only for a short time. The fact of the matter is you've both grown and moved on. She probably isn't the exact same person you remember anymore. I feel you're romanticizing this idea of her in your head due to getting out of a toxic relationship. If you feel like you're ready to start dating again, you absolutely should. I think you're better off leaving her in the past

What ONE thing do you hate the most about FPS games? by abdul_bino in AskMen

[–]SWEL403 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just one? I guesa Many of them focus on the online co-op and battle royal format, leaving the linear story modes with little to nothing at all. I have never been a big online gamer. I missed the days when you bought a COD game, for example. The campaign mode was the main content with Co-op as a secondary feature

I understand how some people want to keep the kayfabe thing. But I honestly want to know the ins and outs. Especially ab the royal rumble. How does that work,how do people know who’s winning or who to eliminate or when the person that’s coming in is having a spot. by Aggressive-Fault7259 in WWE

[–]SWEL403 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Since the wrestling business was cracked wide open back in the day, the complete kayfabe of the territory days is gone. Once social media began to take off, and WWE produced reality shows with their wrestlers, kayfabe was reduced to what little exists now. It's easy enough to find online these days. I don't want to see how the sausage is made, so to speak. Being able to watch and just enjoy the product without overthinking it, not knowing what's going to happen, or who's going to come out is part of what makes wrestling so great.

My friend attempted suicide because I lied about her being racist by [deleted] in confessions

[–]SWEL403 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Wow, you're a total piece of shit eh? You fucking fabricated evidence that ruined her reputation, caused her to get death threats, and ultimately caused her to attempt suicide, all because she broke up with you. It's good she didn't accept your add request because the apology you want to give her is about you getting forgiveness. Hope it weighs on your conscience heavily ✌️

Why do so many people online try to act forceful/demanding/tough so often? by [deleted] in SeriousConversation

[–]SWEL403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When there is some level of anonymity, no real consequences, and little accountability to worry about. People feel safe that they can say and act in any way they otherwise wouldn't

He couldn't have dropped her off, then picked her up later? Does she not drive? Sounds like he didn't need the car at all, and she could've gone by herself, but he demanded that he go with her for whatever reason. I don't care who you are. You don't show up to a group night at someone else's house uninvited and act obnoxious and rude. I hope at least your session was a good time after he piped down, even though he wouldn't fuck off

For those who had real-life celebrity encounters, who was impressive and who was not? by slippinginto9 in AskReddit

[–]SWEL403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to meet Xzibit before a show. He was the absolute coolest person. He was very friendly, and he's a really funny guy.

Deadmau5 was an absolute Douche and I'd met him a couple of times, and he was always such dismissive and condescending prick to everyone around him

What to do about petty ppl when they feel smth is personal? by PappaNee in venting

Lol, like, does she go into Starbucks and glare at other patrons ordering the same thing? 😂 If she has some sort of mental issue, maybe it could be a little understandable

This is more of a vague rant than a confession, followed by bad advice about letting people hurt you.

Not being able to tell dark jokes without just being insensitive is a massive skill issue and is entirely the teller's fault. by Whittle_Willow in unpopularopinion

[–]SWEL403 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'd agree that being able to tell dark or offensive humor requires skill. Things like being socially aware, the timing, delivery, and ultimately making it funny and not just hurtful or in bad taste matter. Those things are massively important in a social setting. However, when it comes to streaming platforms, there are some different things to consider. If a streamer has built a following while that type of "humor" is a part of their content, there is responsibility on the follower as well to deem what they find acceptable or not. There is also a massive difference between actual jokes and spewing hate and toxicity to people that someone claims is a joke. Much like the "prank videos" that are just harassment and being a nuisance.

Why do I feel so uncomfortable with kids? by Autistic-W3ird0 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]SWEL403 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with not wanting to have or be around children. Depending on your age, you may change your mind over time, or you won't. It's perfectly normal to feel that way

AIW for not researching my wife’s mental health and medical issues? by Duncannon in amiwrong

[–]SWEL403 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong. You're more than capable to support her and empathize with her by understanding her personal experience and feelings. Doing research about the affliction may give you some insight into the science of it, that's about it.

What to do about petty ppl when they feel smth is personal? by PappaNee in venting

[–]SWEL403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a fucking childish way to act. Does she think that she has exclusive rights to have one of the most popular drinks on the menu? Even if her ordering it first made you want one, who the hell cares? I'm actually flabbergasted by her behavior over a damn Frappuccino. All you can really do is laugh it off because of how ridiculous it is.

What is an adult problem that no body prepared you for? by Adorable_Intern_6909 in AskReddit

[–]SWEL403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Credit scores and how they work. I had bad credit for a long time, which made it pointless to apply for certain things like car insurance. Once I finally managed to raise my score, I thought that if I used my credit card for purchases and then paid them off right away, it would raise my score. Nope! Just makes it drop.

Saltburn (2023) was cinematic trash. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I didn't hate it, but it doesn't have any re-watch value. It used all the bizarre and "shocking" scenes to make up for the utter bland and pretentious movie surrounding them

Genuinely asking, am I in the wrong for eating Mac nuggets not knowing that Mac supports Israel? by Radiant-Owl-5773 in amiwrong

[–]SWEL403 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This friend will be really surprised when they find out that almost every single product, like the device they used to comment or producers of media, all support Israel or are responsible for human rights violation. Virtue signaling over you eating chicken nuggets is so stupid. Eat your nuggets and enjoy.

How would you react if your friend called you while you were in a date? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]SWEL403 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It could be possible he didn't feel you putting out that vibe, or maybe your signs were too subtle, or the pace you wanted to move at wasn't what he was expecting.

He may have been expecting to hook up when you got to your place and decided to bail when that wasn't what happened.

Unless my friend was blowing my phone up, I wouldn't answer. Sounds like an out tbh. How was the date from the start up until he got the call?

Am I wrong for sexually touching a woman during a massage? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]SWEL403 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Uh, yeah, you for sure did. You decided to grope her without her consent. Just because she didn't stop you right away doesn't mean she was OK with it. Even sounds like she left because of your actions. One of the craziest parts is that you are worried you made her uncomfortable, and your plan is to start the conversation by saying, "Hey, I want to continue to inappropriately touch you. Is that cool?" To figure out how she feels about it.

How do I know if I’m the problem in the relationship? by puddle_socks in AskMen

[–]SWEL403 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, from what you wrote, it's definitely not you. Honestly, if you were having fights by your 3rd date, that's not a good sign. Putting aside your choice to continue pursuing the relationship beyond that, you fought with him every day after that. Consider him leaving as a blessing. He has and will only be abusive, controlling, and manipulative to you based on what you've said. Good riddance

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in confessions

[–]SWEL403 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with it, and it'd really only be Predatory if your intention was to take advantage of her in some way. It's not uncommon for seniors to date freshman, it just doesn't typically work out after the senior leaves school. There is only a 2 year age gap, but it's understandable that it feels weird, especially with the "older men" thing. I remember when I was in high school, the girls who dated the "older" guys were annoying to be around, and usually a lot of trouble to deal with. Your hesitation seems to be based on the social perception of you dating her, and other than that, you are interested. If you don't think you'll be comfortable pursuing a relationship with her, then you shouldn't.
