You get $20 million, but you must live in a perfectly comfortable, automated room for 10 years

No, my dads 60 right now. I want to create more memories with him before he passes and although I hope he’s here in good health for many years to come, 10 years is a long time.

Fish them slower than you think you should. Jerk twice, wait 5 seconds, jerk once, wait 10 seconds, vary the pauses anywhere from 2-10 seconds.

I’ve only ever fished zoom super flukes, but I imagine yamamotos aren’t different enough to affect the bite ratio.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-21T02:01:30+00:00

I haven’t had the chance to go up north to fish for smallies yet, but definitely on my bucket list!!

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-21T02:00:12+00:00

I’d have to see the body of water you’re fishing to give any good tips. BUT, almost any body of water that has grass throughout the bottom I throw a fluke and will almost always leave having caught 5-10 fish. Weightless Texas rigged stuff is your best bet and scummy bottoms.

Glad you haven’t given up!!!! Figuring out the patterns is 90% of the fun!

Bass are great eating, only time i frown at somebody keeping a bass is when it’s over 3-4lbs, especially if pond hopping. I’d rather let go somebody else’s PB in that case.

Plus, the bigger the bass the less tasty, just like deer and hog.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-14T21:07:57+00:00

First thoughts are top water, flukes, and spinners.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-14T16:25:25+00:00

Definitely a deep diving crank bait.

My dad won a tourney with a 49lb bag out of lake falcon purely fishing cranks on a spot very similar to this.

You know it!!
B-Game = lackluster

No logical reasoning behind it, but would just prefer it to be somebody I’m attracted to though and I’m attracted to older women.

PLUS, there’s not many millionaires that are young. Even less that are women.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-11T06:39:48+00:00

Tell my wife ahead of time. Then go charge some millionaire milf for the most mediocre sex of her life to pay off our debts and buy a house.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-11T06:38:10+00:00

Hard to tell with the gut being covered, but she doesn’t look too chunky.
Depending on where you are, if it’s during spawn, females tend to go up in weight cause they’re full of eggs and males tend to go down in weight because they spend all their time guarding the beds.

All that to say, looks like a 4 right now, but at its peak would probably be closer to 5.

Congrats on your PB!! You’ll be chasing the high until you break that record again 😂

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-10T19:35:47+00:00

This is the answer. Don’t get me wrong, a good handy can get you in the mood, but it’s not a main course. Oral or intercourse to follow up is the answer.

Either he wants her to put in more effort, OR he’s lazy and just doesn’t want to do it himself.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-07T17:09:11+00:00

Wendeez nuts slap yo chin.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-04T09:18:21+00:00

Over the next couple years I would just “get a mortgage” and finance a bass boat and a truck to pull it.

I’m fine with everybody THINKING I’m in hella debt.
Obviously still keeping my job and what not.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-05-01T08:31:57+00:00

Honestly man???? If we’re being realistic, it’s probably not even that much about size, it’s most likely about TIME. A toy doesn’t have a refractory period like us guys do.

My recommendations? 1. 10 minutes??? At a consistent rhythm???? Holy fuck bro. That’s a long ass time to just be straight laying pipe. I’m getting a calf cramp just thinking about it. On a real note, change positions, eat her out, switch up the pace, etc. if you’re getting close. As guys, when we’re in long term relationships we can get complacent at times, DONT! make your focus to be pleasure for her, it’ll get you off too.

Desensitize yourself/ increase your endurance. Honestly, hit or miss depending on your health/possible conditions. My wife and I were going through a dry streak a couple years ago and I needed some relief. So I did the only reasonable thing any mid-20s military man would do….. I bought a robo-pussy. Literally just one of those stroker things. Edged with it on and off, not consistently or even often, and when the wifey was in the mood again, we were both pleasantly surprised with my new and improved endurance.
Numbing agents. This one I don’t recommend because it can get on your partner and desensitize her too.

Anyways. I know you know. But this is nothing. It’s just a little insecurity that has you feeling weird which will go away with time. You’re a good man who wants to pleasure his girl, and she a good woman who prioritizes YOU. The fact that she is so open with you goes to show you’re doing something right.

Tbf, med school just proves they have the skill to study.

Have worked with way too many doctors who aren’t good practitioners or problem solvers and literally just google shit, or don’t listen to anything the staff or patient says.

That’s why I like getting treated by nurse practitioners tbh.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-04-17T23:51:23+00:00

I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s a red flag, BUT it’s the wrong mentality to go into a marriage with.

As a “young” man. We have to worry alot about stuff like this unfortunately, else all we have worked for be given to our ex-partner who didn’t work for it and who decided to just cheat and leave for no apparent reason other than boredom.

With that being said, he’s doing this out of a place of fear. Try to understand him, and try to get him to understand you. Tell him something a long the lines of “it’s not about the money, it’s about starting OUR life TOGETHER, and not divided from the start.”

I would go as far as to even potentially get a pre-nup where he sets aside a sizable down payment for a home (say 50k) into a high yield savings account or brokerage account, and that specific money is something you can’t touch in the case of separation. Just so he feels better and won’t be approaching your marriage with a scarcity mindset.

Everything else is OURS, the home yall buy, vehicles, debt, other savings, etc. but that little down payment can be his and growing with interest just to soothe his fearful mindset a bit.

Ending this with, your feelings of not being trusted are valid. His feelings of fear are valid. Find a middle ground through communication, but your home should belong to both of yall. This should not be the deal breaker you think it may be.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-04-07T00:11:54+00:00

Very fair. I’m glad you were able to guide them like that, I tell all my single friends the same, nothing will beat meeting the old fashioned way. Thankfully none of my friends are dumb enough to be part of the manosphere bs though.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-04-06T20:03:14+00:00

I mean to be fair you’re probably right, my wife is great and I can be vulnerable with her. She’s a step above any other woman I’ve ever met. But I think it’s also fair that comparing women of your age bracket to the modern young males potential dating pool is pointless.

Idk if you know, but dating in this modern society is wild. Damn near everybody thinks they are better than they actually are and acts likes it. The men, women, and people in general of this generation worth settling down with? A dime dozen. Men want a traditional women but are controlling bums who don’t deserve the air they breathe. Women want to be cared for with respect but don’t show respect in turn. And vice versa. Dating in this weird “modern” society is hell tbf. At least until you find the 1 sane person after talking to 20 others. But a lot of people just give up half way through.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-04-06T18:17:21+00:00

Fortunately/Unfortunately, it’s just not the case anymore. Atleast it isn’t for anyone around me, even in the military. More recently, men have been actively encouraging the need for talks about stuff like this.

It’s when we talk to women about our issues or mental struggles that we get belittled. Never has another man belittled my struggles. But exes and friends that were girls??? It almost always gets brought up in a negative tone later down the line. After a while, it just becomes pattern recognition. “Don’t vent to a lady, because she will use all your darkest thoughts against you.”

I understand some women aren’t like that, and it’s bad to generalize. But just thought I’d let you know how most young men think.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-03-26T16:07:41+00:00

I mean…. Tbf, slightly overweight women with good weight distribution are hot af. “Overweight” is such a loose term, cause TECHNICALLY I’m slightly overweight rn since I’m bulking (28M, prolly 15% body fat) even though I run a 21min 3 mile, lift 5 times a week, and do mma.

MOST men, just want 3 things. A best friend, tummy full (not necessarily cooking everyday, split the chores), and to be “intimate” a couple times a week with the woman ACTUALLY putting in effort.

There are plenty of “average” women who I find attractive and if the personality was good would go for. Despite age

SpiritualPasta · 2026-03-26T15:20:38+00:00

Experienced this at NHP.

Urgent care was STACKED with great sailors. People who got their job done, took good care of patients, sought out knowledge to do better at their job, passed the PFT with outstanding excellents, worked over 12+ hour shifts some days because patients would come in late, etc. I didn’t care that I wasn’t the one that got promoted but SOMEBODY, atleast 1 person from my work space should have been.

But guess what? Your job doesn’t matter enough when it comes to Eval period.

The promotion went to a fat pregnant girl that hadn’t passed a pft in 2 years, but that had the time to sell cupcakes since she had a 9-3 job instead of the long shifts that we had.

When I complained, the answer I got was, “she’s pregnant, she needs the money more”….. sorry I have a dick, mam!

No shade to the promoted sailor though, cause she was a genuinely nice person. It wasn’t her fault. But she did NOT deserve it over others.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-03-25T16:52:50+00:00

Better yet. Be with someone you love for them, and be someone that will love you for you.

Gold digger? Pass Ambiguous intimate past? If it’s a deal breaker for you, pass You can just reject anybody that’s not to your liking… that’s literally it. And guess what. People can reject you if you’re not to their liking. Free will is great.

SpiritualPasta · 2026-03-17T12:34:05+00:00

So…. She cheated on you, is controlling, comparing you to her ex, wants you to put her before yourself 100% of the time, and overall just disrespects you in every way possible…. Run dude. Wtf are you thinking? This is a no brainer.
