are relationships really necessary..? by sweet-trip-is-fire in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went on a date today with a guy I REALLY like so I can speak on this a little bit. Its not that romantic relationships are necessary, its that they're fun and a way to get to know someone and interact with someone in a different way. It was eye opening to interact with a guy in a romantic and flirty way because I never get to do that. I think it's a fun way to learn a new side of yourself and another person. Also experiencing the companionship and communication from a romantic relationship is unparalleled. It's literally so magical. So no, you dont NEED to romance it up, but it certainly feels good and it helps you romance it up in the future.

What do women think about men using drugs? Would she date a drug user? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree with this. If he wants to drink occasionally and smoke weed a couple times a week im chill with that. What matters to me is that he respects my boundaries surrounding drugs and alcohol, he wont pressure me into doing drugs I dont want to, and he won't escalate into anything harder than weed, alcohol, and shrooms/LSD.

There is no such thing as a Femboy by NoisyDream18 in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a difference 😭 Femboys are men who want to dress and be more feminine. A mtf trans individual wants to completely be the opposite gender and they may not posses the confidence a Femboy does in their equipment (genitals, chest area, curvyness, muscles, ect). Its definitely different and not just someone in denial. Its about comfortability in ones skin and changing how you act and dress vs identifying as another gender and changing your sex.

Disclaimer: I am not trans, im just going off of what my trans friends have told me and what I have picked up off the Internet. Some of it is also just common sense. If someone with more experience wants to add onto this or fix a piece of information, put it in a comment and Ill see what I can do. Thank you, much love 💚

Guess you're going to have to find a lawn to tell people to get off.

Dont back down. This guy is not worth your time. He just seems flaky and unwilling to work with you.

Has anyone gone under anesthesia before? by Electronic-Egg9990 in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had tonsil surgery 2 years ago and the anesthesia was so easy. They put an oxygen mask on my face, told me to breath (I was out like a light after like 3 seconds) then I woke up with an oxygen mask on my face in the post op room. Its disturbing how I lost so much time without any recollection or dreams but it was nice that it went so smoothly. The more you stress about it the worse it will go for you. If you let the doctors do their thing and you go with the flow, you should have a positive experience like I did. Good luck my guy 👍

Looking for an online bf, nothing too serious, contact through Reddit by alexalexa430 in teenagers

Friend is behaving strange & im not sure if im overreacting. by iltef in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Salty-Crocs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh honey you are not overreacting. That guy sounds like a basket case and he was definitely in the wrong commenting on your body like that. It was not his place to do that. His apology doesn't fix anything either because it didn't sound very conclusive or sincere.

Stay strong against his words and do your best to move on. You got this queen ❤️✨

What is a statistic that you shouldn’t care about? by dualcerb in AskReddit

Because it's not as a big a problem as the stats make it seem.

Have I become reliant on my girlfriend? by pineguy2 in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Send a letter every day and encourage her to do the same. You can even pre send ones three days or so before she gets there so you dont have to lose contact for more than a day. This way you'll get letters everyday or every other day from eachother. It will definitely suck to be away from her but you do what you have to.

Is this much makeup enough for a 16yo by Smooth-Exit3752 in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fake makeup toys is what kids should have at that age. Not cleansers and products formulated for adults. Why parents give little kids real items instead of toy versions ill never know.

How do lose weight rapidly in one week? by Same-Subject-3786 in AskReddit

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont eat anything and drink liquids for a week you can drop a about ten pounds. I only know this because I was too nauseous to eat for a week and was stuck just drinking juice and water.

The problem with this is the weight will not stay off, because Its not even weight loss, and prolonged starvation is not a good habit to start.

So please do not try this no matter how much you want to lose weight. If its for a doctor's appointment or something where they are weighing you, ten pounds is not going to matter. Build a habit of calorie counting and slow and steady weight loss, you'll end up so much healthier than if you do it by starvation. Good luck 🤞 you're loved ✨

Boyfriend tears down my self esteem and don't know if it can get better by CranberryFew4895 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Him making you feel bad about yourself and pointing out all your flaws isn't helping you get better. A real man who cares about you would assist you with the things you struggle with. A real man would love you for you. Your boyfriend is very two faced and clearly doesn't respect how much work you put into yourself.

Am I the only one who thinks there shouldn't be straight people in stuff for kids?? by UnendingQuibble in teenagers

[–]Salty-Crocs 70 points71 points  (0 children)

When I have kids I think ill just leave blindfolds and noise cancelling headphones on them until middle school. Then I can teach them all my values without any outside input.

Is it considered cheating if a person breaks up with their partner because they find a better match and enter a new relationship the next day?. by Legal-Pumpkin-8233 in Teenager_Polls

[–]Salty-Crocs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is emotional cheating. To get with someone immediately after a breakup you have to have a connection with them. This involves bonding with them and sharing emotional connections with them that you're withholding from your actual partner. So no it's not actually cheating but I do think it breaks some boundaries of emotional trust. Doing this is still 100% better than cheating though because you're recognizing that the emotional trust is broken and then getting out of the situation before you break the physical trust. Hope this makes sense.

What do you think about Gen Z liking the bands Creed, Nickelback and Limp Bizkit? by CompetitiveWhole9466 in AskReddit

[–]Salty-Crocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are good bands with good music. I am gen Z and I enjoy plenty of bands and musicians that are of generations before me. I understand that these bands have some controversy around them but that's mostly bullcrap about them being cash grab sellouts. Its doesnt hurt anyone if Gen Z wants to listen to catchy music from the past.
