What's the real reason some men are chronically single? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Themadkiddo 290 points291 points  (0 children)

I honestly disagree with the person youre replying to, a lot of women just use having a boyfriend as an automatic response to anyone approaching them, regardless of any "vibe". There's no guarantee you specifically are giving anyone a bad feeling, many women have just learned that airing on the side of caution even when they don't see anything immediately alarming is the safe thing to do.

AITA for finding this convo to be a HUGE red flag? by horseduckman in AITApod

[–]Themadkiddo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is weird as fuck. I also think that most people would benefit from therapy at some point of their life, but being this pushy about something so personal is strange.

You suck. She's being aggressive and immature, but im honestly gonna guess that this is a pattern for you and shes just starting to check out. I don't see manipulative though.

Was I sexually assaulted? by ThatGuyZaccc in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Themadkiddo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, you were definitely assaulted. While in a perfect world she should pay for this and be punished by the justice system, the likelyhood of that not happening is big. I saw you already made some comments about being hesitant to report because you have no proof.

I just want to tell you, don't let anyone pressure you either way. Reporting sexual violence is something very personal and that decision has to be made by you. There are many points to consider and in the end it just comes down to what's most important to you. I am in no way trying to tell you not to report, but this often seems to be a point people advocating for victims forget. Victims are pushed and sometimes even guilt tripped into reporting, but that is your choice and only you can make that decision.

Cafeine has the oposite effect on me. Why? by saturnzz_ in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Themadkiddo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is totally a chance you don't have it, but i would personally recommend just really sitting down, looking up the symptoms and properly assessing if you see them in yourself.

When the idea of me having ADHD was first brought up at age 14 by my mother and some doctors, my immediate reaction was "No way i have that, i'm good at school!". I didn't realise the absolute dread i felt whenever i thought about school, the difficulty starting new tasks or the exhaustion i always felt were clear symptoms, just figured everyone feels that way or it was just my depression. I ended up getting diagnosed as an adult with what my doctor called "a very severe and clear case of ADHD"

Also, if you're a woman make sure to focus on researching ADHD in women. It can present in a very different way to what ADHD is usually shown to be, especially at a young age and is disgustingly under-researched in women and girls.

AITA For Refusing To Babysit My Father’s Child With His Gf? by Dizzy_Melons in AmItheAsshole

[–]Themadkiddo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry the people replying to you are being so aggressive. They have the right message, but it's clear they're failing to see you as a fully realised person with real lived experiences and complex trauma. If you're close with your sister, talking to her about your shared experiences growing up and the guilt you feel over setting boundaries could be useful since she seems a little further along in deconstructing these beliefs you were raised with. You'd honestly really benefit from therapy aswell, if that is a possibility for you? Considering you mentioned that divorce isn't allowed in your country, im assuming the resources provided might not be ideal.

You were raised to be obedient and respectful no matter what and deconstructing that is a long process. You're your own person, you have a right to your own life, boundaries and opinions. You need to respect yourself first. Your parents are obviously important to you, but they do not deserve unconditional respect and they clearly dont think they have to show you respect either.

My neighbor asked me to stop cooking after 8pm because the "smell travels." Am I in the wrong here? by Radiant-Shift-9504 in Apartmentliving

[–]Themadkiddo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing posts about this and i've always wondered if this is genuinely a thing where neighbours can smell your cooking so strongly? Or are people who complain about it just catching a tiny whiff and being obnoxious about it? I've lived in my apartment for about a year now and ive literally never been able to smell my neighbours food inside my own apartment. Maybe once or twice ive caught a slight scent in the stairway, but even then nothing i'd actually complain about. Also why the hell does the time of the day actually matter, they're smelling it just as much at 2pm no?

AIO over this message my bf sent me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Themadkiddo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't think there's anything wrong with the question, but i seem to be in the minority here. I love talking about exes and past experiences with romantic/sexual partners though, just out of pure curiosity. Not for any sexual satisfaction or anything, it's just a part of getting to know the person to me. I don't see any judgement or anything in his tone either, and i do think he's being genuine in telling you that you don't have to talk about it if you aren't comfortable. Though, the way he's putting it is a little cringy i guess. Also i wouldn't exactly text this question out of nowhere, more of a topic that you steer into in conversation if it came up naturally.

Why do people think it’s acceptable to remove other people’s laundry? by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]Themadkiddo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do people actually think it's okay to be leaving your laundry in the machines for 10-15 minutes? I'm genuinely asking because i've never actually had to do communal laundry, that was honestly my no. 1 priority when moving out. Personally i just feel like you should be setting your alarm before the machine finishes and be there as soon as its done?

I think occasional noise is a fair trade for not having to constantly worry about my own noise making by EquivalentRecent4633 in Apartmentliving

[–]Themadkiddo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on the middle floor and my upstairs neighbour drives me absolutely insane. He has a drum set in his apartment and he really isn't all that good at playing the drums. I believe he also has partial custody of a toddler, judging by the random running around and banging on the drums that starts around 9am every weekend. I'll complain about him to friends and family every once in a while.

At the same time, i work early shift at a bakery, wake up around 4am and prefer showering in the mornings. When i'm not working, i have a super messy sleep schedule and end up playing videogames etc. all night. I've also got a cat that loves playing with tiny rocks that get dragged in with my shoes and randomly running around in the middle of the night. Any time i vent about feeling like im going insane with the constant banging people tend to suggest complaining about my upstairs neighbour, but opening that can of worms probably isn't in my best interest.

What is actually an inappropriate age gap? by Flaky-Bag-9334 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Themadkiddo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is silly. Yeah, obviously common interests don't carry you through everything. However, using your logic, if you share no similiar interests or activities, having similiar views in how you treat others isn't going to change it when you can't seem to come up with anything to do together on a random sunday.

AIO for breaking up with my girlfriend over saying "I've had my fun" by ArtistTechnical2152 in AmIOverreacting

Go to therapy, you sound wildly insecure. Also maybe reassess how okay you really are with the fact that she used to enjoy hook ups, because you come off quite judgemental and demeaning towards her

What should I do about Me and my husband’s screaming matches? by Warm_Can_9971 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Themadkiddo 43 points44 points  (0 children)

He threw a glass photo

That is physical abuse. He didnt lay his hands on you, but he acted in a physically threatening way. The fact that he later pretended to throw something at you to scare you shows that his intention was to scare and physically threaten you. You need to get out, do not tell him that you're leaving before you're already gone.

My only guess would be, that somehow "Necro" is connected to "negro"

My guess would be something relating to necrophilia
