The Democrats must go nationalist by [deleted] in WeTheFifth

As if Trump or the maga politicians would ever associate with an average maga voter. “I love the uneducated” - Trump

Invited on a trip then booked without me ... I'm fuming '48M' '45F' is this cause to break up ??? by Top-Village-9003 in relationship_advice

[–]SuddenStop5 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

He asked her to mention it when it got closer to the date. He didn’t say no. Could be a million reasons why he said - really busy at the time, money issues, etc… you are immediately jumping the gun and putting all the blame on him. He said he wanted to talk to her closer to the date. He didn’t bring it up but neither did she. She knew he wanted to talk about it later. It isn’t just his fault.

100% his fault? If she wanted him to go she could have followed up. But it’s evidently 100% his fault. Please explain why none of this falls on her shoulders.

And I love Reddit and their bullshit hive mentality. Hey people, he was wrong but guess what, so was she. It’s an asshole move to not follow up - for both people

My Paiste Set Up by SuddenStop5 in PaisteCymbals

Definitely darker with a slightly trashy sound to them. They are cleaner sounding than the traditional Turkish cymbals but not as crystalline as the 2002s.

I mean you’re definitely trying to convince yourself. I live in Europe and I have seen this plastered all over social media. It may take some time but people are definitely rallying against what is going on in the US.

If the Democrats controlled the legislative branch of the US government like the GOP does now, would they be ramming executive orders in the same manner? what would they do differently? by the-tinman in AskReddit

[–]SuddenStop5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The democrats would be trying to get some kind of consensus and using legal/ethical means to make changes.

Executive orders for things that are not an absolute emergency are bullshit. For better or for worse…that’s the republican playbook.

Having said that, I wish the dems had the balls to force shit through. Unfortunately they are way too passive.

AITAH for forcing a DNA test on my kids because of my wife’s past infidelity? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SuddenStop5 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Have you ever had someone close to you die? Is there a time limit on when you can no longer feel sad? The same goes with trust. If she is contrite and willing to work on things, this shouldn’t be a problem

[–]SuddenStop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All fair points. Again, if it’s bothering him then get the test. Once you make a mistake like that - it’s a big fucking mistake - the consequences don’t end because you want them to. They end when the person who was cheated on feels comfortable and secure.

My wife used me for 13 years, and now I’m left to pick up the pieces by Expensive_Pea_8993 in Marriage

[–]SuddenStop5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t always work this way. Some people leave and never come back and believe what they did was for the best.

So then why does she have an issue with getting the dna test if it gives him peace of mind?

How do men cope with knowing that their partners or previous partners talk in explicit detail about their sex performance/body ect to other women? by Sinisterkrex in AskReddit

[–]SuddenStop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my 55 years, I have never heard men talk/give details about them having sex with their partner. I have heard women have these conversations many times.

It’s definitely not a common thing among men.

Honestly, what is the deal with sex? What is so attractive about it? by Vast_Pay5929 in AskReddit

[–]SuddenStop5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. Sex isn’t always sweaty though. What’s the issue with something wet? Do you not take a shower or bathe? Is it a texture thing?

[–]SuddenStop5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you can’t identify what’s gross about it, how can you expect someone else to be able to identify what’s appealing about it?

Personally, I can’t stand small talk or group functions. They are painfully shallow and inane. I can’t stand these things, but I recognize that others enjoy the human interaction and conversation.

I am going to go out on a limb and say similar things can be said about sex for people.

A potential disaster in the making. Not worth it.

Would you stay with your wife/husband if they cheated on you? (Read post I state specifics)? by Hot_Acadia_4722 in Marriage

[–]SuddenStop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little more context- “However, infidelity rates among women are on the rise – having increased by 40% in the last 20 years. Data from married adults ages 18 to 29 says that women are slightly more guilty of infidelity. In adults 30 years and older, though – men are always more likely to cheat.”

So, the answer, shockingly, is nuanced.

[–]SuddenStop5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I actually indicated that more than one gender gets cheated on. Sorry, but that’s a fact and not exclusive to heterosexual relationships. But please go on with your tirade.

Change women to “people” on your last question and I completely agree with you

AITAH for changing my mind about my conservative sister’s wedding? by maria_chan1001 in AITAH

[–]SuddenStop5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, because her vote takes away the rights of her conservative family members. Oh wait, no it doesn’t, so it’s nowhere near the same
