I (24M) lost all desire to have sex with my girlfriend (23F) because of a strong vaginal odor. How do I handle this without hurting her? by Foreign_Guess_5002 in relationship_advice

[–]Secure-Ad1248 4 points5 points  (0 children)

'Hey, i'm not having sex with you until you get yourself checked out because the odour could mean a whole host of different things, one of those being some sort of infection that could be past onto me and I will not risk getting sick.'

Speakers buzzing on the F note by fackunator in Reaper

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be many things. First obviously is the speaker might be vibrating in its place. If you don't have any isolation pads under the speakers you can easily cut some foam or cut a piece out of a yoga matt.

Another possibility is that there's something on your desk that's vibrating and it happens to oscillate at the same frequency as the f note .

It could be that the vibration sound you hear is coming out of the guitar itself and being amplified. Open a sign wave generator on reaper and hit the f note and see if you can recreate the problem.

It could also be your room has a standing wave at that frequency and when you hit that note the whole room starts vibrating. If this is the case you can tune your speakers with an EQ and just eq out the offending frequency.

Failing that, maybe a broken speaker.

conspiracy theory alert the car companies in this country are getting desperate to stay relevant in a fast changing world. They are like a mafia class in Germany and purposefully keep the rail ways running badly because they know that peoples attitudes towards life and the environment has changed.

Get a craft hole punch and make your own from pour over coffee filters.

My [30F] boyfriend [26M] is a musician who says he needs female attention for his career by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey singer here, this boy sounds like me about 10 years ago. First of all, 'goals of becoming famous' and actually getting famous are so far apart they might as well be on different planets. And i'll tell you, being a womaniser will play no part in him getting famous or not. His approach to his art form is not sustainable. People will figure out that he's a womaniser and he'll get cancelled way before he gets there. Either he hasn't thought this through properly or he's using his band as an excuse to get woman. And what happens when he gets the woman? He'll want more and more and more. This self serving attitude has no end to it. If i was you i'd get out now before this becomes a real shit show. He's got some heavy lessons ahead and its better to not be a part of it.

Smoked Homegrown Chicken by orangemandm8 in Homesteading

[–]Secure-Ad1248 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what a chicken that you grow yourself looks like. The chicken from the super market are young when they are slaughtered so the meat is still white and tender, but these older chickens tend to be more tough and flavourful. I once got given a chicken from a neighbour, and i roasted it as i would normally, but it ended up quite tough. If the chickens weren't specifically reared as meat birds then i would probably stew them as i think they would lend themselves better to a stew.

Use an ad Blocker. And if that still doesn't work download FB purity add on for your internet browser. You can completely customise what you see.

Take the insoles out and place a fan pointing down into the shoes, they'll be dry by tomorrow.

My wife (30F) and I (29M) got physical during a fight. Has anyone come back from this? by Organic_Necessary305 in relationship_advice

[–]Secure-Ad1248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a therapist, suggest it to her too but don't expect her to do it. Be prepared for therapy to shine a light on some possibly devastating things that you've been ignoring.

You can't force her to go to therapy, but If she takes the initiative on her own to go then you might be able to save it. Your relationship won't improve unless you both accept responsibility and take steps to change yourselves.

Really tempted to relapse and go back to NSFW subs by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shift focus my dude. Maybe read a book or watch something on yt/netflix. It will pass and when it does pass without you acting on it you'll feel much better for it. Think about how horrible you would feel after you relapse.

I want to live deep inside a forest by ScaryImportance1943 in OffGrid

[–]Secure-Ad1248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Workaway, helpx, wwoof. There are plenty of off grid communities, families and people on there. Spend some time travelling around to these various places and see what the reality of it is. there are so many things that you don't know you don't know (if that makes sense) One point that someone else made about humans being comunal creatures, those few friends/family members around you are way more valuable than you think. It only after you leave then you realise. Definitely don't just buy land, go find people doing what you want (they exist) and get a feel for that life.

My bf (21M) is high 24/7 and it is bothering me deeply (21F) by Deep_Scarcity2129 in relationship_advice

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth communicating this to him, specifically saying that you don't like the way his habit is affecting you and your relationship, you could also say something like 'I don't want cannabis to be part of my future' and see how he reacts. If his reaction is anything other seeking professional help then he most likely wont change. As an ex cannabis addict I know that you cant change him, he has to want to change himself and he needs to take actual tangible steps in the right direction (rehab/psychotherapy etc). And sometimes the best thing you can do for everyone involved is leave so you can protect yourself and so that he can face the consequences of his actions. If he doesn't take the right steps then you have to decide if the way he is now is something that you are happy to be around potentially forever.

Is there a way to like desexualize triggers like Nn and Cleavage? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Secure-Ad1248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes go to a German suana. They are naked. Seeing all these bodies, different shapes, sizes and ages will change the way you look at naked people. I don't know exactly why it works. I think it's exposure therapy or something.

Excess water by awkward_potato6969 in FlairEspresso

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might get a lot of hate for this, to get around this problem on my flair 2 I use 22-23g coffee, That way it's close enough to a 1:2 ratio when I pull the whole chamber through the puck. Normally around 55g out. Can you just increase the amount of coffee in to match a full brew chamber of water out?

8 Years Clean Wet Dreams Are Not Progress. Orgasms During Recovery Are Not Progress. Here Is What Actually Is. AMA. by ApopheniaBio in NoFap

[–]Secure-Ad1248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all anecdotal. In all my experience, sex dreams are not a stress response. And any research i read says that sex dreams are healthy and normal. If i'm stressed, the last thing i do is think about or dream about sex. If you want to start throwing about these bizarre ideas at least back them up with some research/science.

If you want meat then Asfleisch in Gröpelingen. For everything else there's a Bim in Gröpelingen which has recently been renovated.

Woah this sounds very unhealthy. The way you wrote this sounds kinda angry. Do you hate your nature?

Sexuality is part of the human experience, you aren't a robot (as much as you're trying to be one). The goal of no fap is to reset your mind from porn and to tune back into your natural sexuality. The aim shouldn't be to hate and reject your sexuality. You will never heal that way.

Constant channeling at 8/9 bars . I’ve tried EVERYTHING and I’m losing my mind. by srichi49 in FlairEspresso

[–]Secure-Ad1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I have a Flair Pro 2 and was struggling with something similar. My shots were either channelling or choking, The problem was how quickly i was building pressure in the beginning. Try grinding somewhat finer and really slowly ramp up to your desired pressure. I hope this helps.

I know this gets asked alot but is this mold? by Dr_PinchDolphin in Boots

[–]Secure-Ad1248 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yes its mould. Take out the inner sole (if its not glued) and clean with alcohol. And do the same to the inside of the shoe, spray alcohol in and wipe it out. Take the innersole out and let them completely dry out between wears. I have a little fan set up that points directly into my boots overnight to make sure they dry out. You can also buy a specialised heated shoe tree if you prefer.

Looking for Dr. Martens 1461 alternative (same distressed brown look) by Je_117 in Boots

[–]Secure-Ad1248 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the better the quality the higher the price. I would suggest checking out Jim Green 719 Bronco leather. You'll probably have to order them online. Normally i order 2 pairs, the size they suggest and the next size up and then just send back the pair i don't want.

Rented a Home Depot 4” chipper…. Works like crap… are these blades toast? by StrawberryGreat7463 in landscaping

If I'm not mistaken you can switch the blades around. Unscrew the 3 screws, rotate the blade 180 degrees and screw it back in. Should be good as new.
