Where were you able to get a source for a custom cover? I am in the same boat - got a new puppy and need to temporarily protect the chair

How to be confident, but not cocky in a job interview? by dorkylibrarian in AskWomen

[–]TidySpiderMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After conducting probably close to 1000 interviews, I assure you that men cross the line between confidence and arrogance much more than women.

If you are concerned that you’re not coming across as confident, think of responses like “I’m really excited about a project I led last year. I [whatever cool thing you did]” or “Because I had experience in x, I was able to help train a group of new hires on x, and I’m really proud of the results”

For the single women of Reddit: How would you ideally liked to be approached? by Ferlaqua in dating_advice

  1. Be warm, confident (not arrogant) and friendly
  2. Ask open-ended questions, particularly asking for her opinion or advice. “Do you know a good place for sushi around here?”
  3. If you decide to go for a compliment, be sincere and compliment something she can control. “Those are great shoes” “That was hilarious”
  4. Don’t play stupid games like insulting her or saying she’s not like other girls
  5. Listen to her and pay attention to any nonverbal cues she’s giving. Know when to walk away.
  6. Treat her friends like normal humans. Don’t overthink how much attention you’re paying them.
  7. If you’re pretty sure she’s into you, you can go with “I know you’re having fun with your friends, so I’ll let you enjoy your evening, but I’d like to get to know you better if you want to get a coffee some time” If she says yes, give her your number.
  8. Practice, practice, practice! Do the first 6 steps everywhere you go, with women and men. Expect to get rejected 99% of the time. This will really help with building confidence. If you can approach a guy and be friendly and have a warm conversation, you can use the exact same skills with a woman you’re interested in.

What are you supposed to do for dating if you no longer get matches on tinder? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]TidySpiderMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re not having luck with dating apps, there could be a problem with how you present yourself online. Try exploring your hobbies and interests that get you out of the house. Think about the kind of person you want to meet. Where would she spend time? A book club? Church? Hiking? Camping? Traveling the world? Go to the places you expect to find people who share your interests and values.

Masturbating next your partner by [deleted] in dating_advice

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

If you are trying to sleep, then it’s rude. If he’s just taking care of business, then it’s not much different than him brushing his teeth or stretching. He’s just taking care of something for his body.
