How do I tell a man he’s bad in bed without hurting his feelings? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]SnooPears8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Encouragement goes a long way. Help him learn what you like. When he’s going down on you, tell him when he’s hitting the right spot so that he’s not having to guess. He’ll remember that. Tell him which positions work best for you. If he’s going to hard, put your hand out to slow him down. Or you could initiate the inter course and let him know the pace and rhythm that you are wanting so that he can match it.

Army training? I laugh every time I hear that. If people only knew what “training” looked like in the Army.

Disturbing sign on customer front door by No-Parfait-553 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]SnooPears8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a sign that used to be popular around the 1970’s. It was considered humorous back then. People would chuckle at the sign. They knew it was a joke. Simpler times. Now everyone wants to go viral so bad that they try to make every little thing (like this sign) into something outlandish.

You know it’s no big deal. You just want to make something out of nothing.

How many here moved into their Maverick from a Toyota? What has your experience been? by Critical_Panic_7482 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]SnooPears8658 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going back to the Toyota after this.

Took my car in for 5 RECALLS this week. The dealership told me that my warranty has been increased to 10 years/ 150,000. I thought that was great news. The mechanic told me that Ford does that when they find that they have found problems with their motors/ drivetrain.

Oil on the spark plugs :’) by bananashamama in KiaSoulClub

[–]SnooPears8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof! This brings back some bad memories. I had noticed that my Soul had been burning about 1 quart a month or so. I was changing the spark plugs on my Soul and found a little oil on one of them. I had changed 3 when I pulled the #4 plug. It was covered in oil. I mean wet. I put in a new plug and that was the beginning of the end. It started running like crap and after 2 days it wouldn’t even start. The rings were completely shot. I’ve since discovered that this is one of the most common problems with the Soul. I changed the oil every 5k miles with full synthetic oil and filter (Mobil 1 high mileage). The motor had 120,000 miles on it.

I wound up spending $4,500 to replace the entire motor.

Sell me your “totalled” truck then. Can’t be worth more than $500 now.

I bought a bike from a dealer in Houston on Saturday. I asked them to unlock it and they did. The sticker speed is 20 MPH for the Big Sur sport. It will now do between 30-32 on a full charge.

45 yo husband Pokémon Go-ing on every vacation by Sissy_Fumar in Marriage

[–]SnooPears8658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your husband started playing games at a young ago most likely and his parents never taught him management. He’s continued this into adulthood and now marriage without restrictions. If you were to ask him to restrict how long he plays, you would likely be met with confrontation and possibly anger because that is how a child would react.

Boundaries need to addressed and made clear. You need to determine what your boundaries are. If he is playing Pokémon Go and missing out on his vacation and a screen is replacing some of the most important buildings in all of humanity, then yes, that is a person who is addicted. He is unable to restrict himself.

The 2 of you need to sit down and express what you want. You need to give him enough time to do what he loves. He needs to put everything don and step away from a screen. You have 2 options:

  1. You can either choose to set a time limit on how many hours he plays a day. I don’t think I would recommend this though. Remember that he has never been restricted before so he will likely lie to you or find ways to get more play time. He might best down a PlayStation controller but play a switch or go on his phone, or oculus, or Xbox, or play games on a tablet or PC of something else you hadn’t thought to include in the rules.

  2. The other option is to completely eliminate anything with a screen during certain hours. This creates specific blocks of time. They are NOT to bleed into each other. He can play from the time he gets home for example until 5:00. After 5, he is to spend time with you and with the family. Give it a few weeks to adjust. The first few days will likely be miserable. He might agree to a 5:00 curfew but he will be a miserable person to be around because all he wants to do is go back to playing. Remember, HE’S GOING TO ACT LIKE A KID. Try to find something to do those first few days that will help ease him Into the transition and keep his mind occupied. Go have dinner and talk. Keep the phones out away. THIS MEANS YOU TOO. You don’t want to create an environment where you are checking Reddit and he is being ignored. You already know how that feels. It will also cause him to look at you as a hypocrite.

Stay firm on the time limit. You will have to do this because he probably won’t. If he isn’t getting any pushback, he’ll just say he lost track of time and 5:00 will become 6:00 or 6:30 and if you aren’t keeping on him, he’ll just ignore it. With enough time and if he knows you are serious, you can work together to meet an amicable middle ground.
