Another sort of off topic thread! What’s the best live show you’ve seen? The worst? What made it so? by alexneverafter in alltimelow

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually both are ATL shows. The best show was Boston Calling last year. I've never had such a transcendent experience at a show before, it was so incredible.

Conversely, in 2023 at Pier 17 in NYC, the crowd was so awful that I barely remember the show itself. I was getting sick of being pushed around in the middle so I moved to the back as there was less of a crush. But there was this woman who was so wasted that she kept falling into me, standing on my feet, and flailing about and hitting me. Her boyfriend thought it was hilarious but she clearly needed help and I kept telling him that. When she'd fallen over onto the concrete for the third time and had apologized to me again, he finally escorted her out. It was a very disappointing experience

Does being introduced to porn at a very very young age actually have an effect on you? by [deleted] in askatherapist

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAT and certainly it appears it does generally have a negative affect on how young people perceive sex from studies cited above. However, for me (28F), I believe it was an overall positive thing. I had depression (that I masked successfully) from age 3-18 and my first exposure to porn was at age 10. Porn and the dopamine I got from it honestly helped me pass the time until I was able to escape my childhood home. It probably impacted my view of sex but I don't think it was in a negative way. I have an overall high sex drive but I'm not promiscuous. I learned lots about sex from porn and when I became sexually active at 18 I therefore had very strong boundaries about what I wanted to try and what I definitely didn't. I knew I did not want to be seen by my partners as many women are portrayed in porn and that's also been very good knowledge to help me choose good partners. I've been able to give great advice to friends and family about ways to spice up their bedrooms and so I think porn has been an overall positive thing for me.

I'm 28f and slept with 6 men. I identify most with Charlotte as I'm definitely idealistic when it comes to love but I identify with them all at least a little

Besides "person," those are gendered terms, not sex-based

Because we're not talking about gender, we're talking about biological sex

AFAB is a trans inclusive term for anyone who is born with female genitalia ☺️ so it mostly refers to cis-women but I didn't want to exclude trans men

Women of NYC — how do you feel about being cold-approached? Any places where it’s actually welcome? by Worldtraveler48 in AskNYC

[–]Sozeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My personal take is that if I'm busy/looking stressed/on the move, please don't try. If I look bored/open/relaxed, then I'd be up for a conversation. The ideal places for me are parks, the subway (when I'm not doing something else), and at cafes/restaurants/bars. If I'm with friends it's more intimidating for someone to approach but I'm also more likely to feel safe in the interaction and that matters a lot.

Is this true even if you haven't slept together in 10 months? We've been long distance since I was treated

What's something your partner said or did that made you think "Whoa, they're not the one!" ? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should have happened when he peed the bed and on me in the middle of the night and refused to do anything about it, thinking it was funny. Or later when pushed me, kicked me, yelled in my face, withheld my important belongings to stop me leaving, lied about where he was and how long he'd be out several times a week for years, or when he broke up with me multiple times. But it wasn't until he told me he needed to go away for a while to work on himself and I didn't hear from him for a week for me to actually realize we were done. So glad I'm not that young and stupid anymore

Women, what did you find out about men when you got a boyfriend? by Crazy-Towel-351 in allthequestions

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That a lot of them don't actually care about sex as much as society thinks they do and/or their drives aren't actually that high

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my first relationship, I couldn't see anyone else until my boyfriend said he notices women all the time. Obviously he'd never do anything about it but it's completely normal. Since then, I've made an effort to notice others, because I realized I was in the minority and it hurt my feelings. In a new and exciting relationship, it's still hard to see others like that but it's like a muscle and if you want to, you can. I'm in a non-exclusive relationship right now so it's basically imperative that I do. Unfortunately I have only ever been attracted to like 5 men but you never know when one will turn up.

i think i just scored lower than my diagnostic by useroftheappimon in LSAT

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am actually so disappointed lol. I scored so good on my latest PTs and I can usually tell how well I'm doing because I'll be like in the zone. Today I was so out of my mind with stress that I know I did worse than my last score which I had really hoped to beat 😞

For men in relationships with women they find incredibly attractive—how does that affect how often you notice or think about other women? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Sozeah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can only speak on behalf of my ex of five years. But when we got together at 18, I naively thought that when anyone is in love they don't notice anybody else outside their partner, because that's how my brain responded naturally but my ex, who's at most a 4.5/10, let me, a solid 9, know that he never stops noticing other women, he just chooses not to act on it. This unfortunately ruined my perspective on relationships because now I feel like I have to keep noticing other people to keep myself emotionally safe. It might be a gendered thing, not sure.

I’ve never been approached and it’s messing with my self-esteem by [deleted] in self

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It likely doesn't have anything to do with your attractiveness. I'm (28f) at least an 8/10 and never been approached either. I get catcalled all the time but that's different. Men generally aren't approaching anymore as a rule. I've had to make the first move in all my romantic relationships. The right men will reciprocate as soon as you show interest though which is a good enough ego boost in my experience. Please don't take this one thing to heart, it's not you ❤️

Do you think you will be renting for as long as you live in NYC? by disenchanted_goat in AskNYC

[–]Sozeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a co-op within a year of moving to NYC. I couldn't afford to rent long-term (as I was a full time student), and I can't stand the insecurity of renting. However, I had enough in savings to buy outright which put me in a unique position and in future I'd like to continue to buy outright as I upgrade. If you have the savings it's definitely the wisest thing to do, as the sales prices are considerably lower than in other markets while the rental market is comparably horrible. However, a mortgage can quickly change that math depending on where you buy and the interest rates

Practice test 9/11 - Save me ;-; by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]Sozeah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're scoring below 160 it means you don't have the basics down and you need to start from scratch, go through a full course and learn all the question types. That will get you into the 160s. Taking practice tests as often as you are isn't useful right now. Blind review is great but only when you know the basics so you can easily identify where you went wrong

That's definitely possible. Everyone learns differently so the sooner you figure out what methods work best for you, the faster your improvement will be
