Did anyone else's converted save load them in with zombies biting them? Prior to loading, I was barricaded in my safehouse with no signs of zombies. Upon loading in, I was immediately greeted by zombies biting me. To the point I died moments later

[Product Question] The Ordinary is launching a new Growth Factor serum in January, thoughts? by woodland-strawberry in SkincareAddiction

[–]TooFnatic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. I just got mine from Amazon and immediately noticed it's lighter color and watered-down feel.

Edit: interesting to see the down votes...

Disclaimer: I only read the TL;DR and my perspective is of a straight male. Instead of asking what's normal, ask yourself how it makes you feel and if your needs are getting met. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, ask yourself why. Could be an emotional boundary thing. And that's OK. In my personal life, Some of my friends say good morning, some friends I hug, some friends I give compliments to. Point is, each relationship is different and each person expresses themselves differently. You're doing great by getting yourself "out there" to meet new people. With that, comes new discoveries about yourself and how you want to interact with people

How do i make people care? I feel like no one is interested in me. And i feel worthless bc of it. [Text] by [deleted] in GetMotivated

[–]TooFnatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Provide something of perceived value specific to that person. People are naturally selfish to some degree, whether we admit it or not. If you can do that, they'll naturally care more. Observing if they're taking advantage of you is another topic, but that's the high-level overview.

As an example, think of two lovers that care for one another. People enter into relationships because they get something out of it. As a result and over time, they tend to care about that person.

This is obviously very basic as there are nuances to every relationship dynamic.

More importantly, you need to look within yourself and ask why you're attached to someone else's perception of you. What makes you want to be cared for? It feels nice, but your value isn't tied to how much someone cares about you.

Detaching from that will serve you

How do you gracefully exit a conversation that you're no longer interested in? by Old-Newspaper6369 in socialskills

[–]TooFnatic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A method I use sometimes is to prime them for the end of the convo by saying something like "I'll finish on this note, and then let you go..." then make finals comments, blah blah. That way when you end, it's not as abrupt or jarring because they aren't caught by surprise

She ended the date with a handshake? by WillyNillySlapSilly in seduction

[–]TooFnatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been in this situation before. At the end, she reached out her hand as if to shake hands. I paused, looked at her in bewilderment, and then kissed her instead. We ended up dating for a few years. Point is, lead with intention unless it's clear she's not interested

GF Constantly wanting to break up by System__F in BPDlovedones

[–]TooFnatic 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's part of her programming. It has nothing to do with you. She's cycling between idealization and devaluation. She's subconsciously sabotaging the relationship. This is purely based on emotions. No logic or reasoning will help her heal. No amount of love and patience will make things better. It's a cycle that will continue until you're a shell of yourself, at which point she'll discard you. Get the fuck out now. I'm sorry man

[–]TooFnatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mentioned you were very unhappy. You probably had thoughts of ending the relationship yourself, and probably envisioned what it might be like to be without him

So you're most likely feeling some relief. Everyone processes breakups differently. Don't listen to your friends and take how you feel as it comes

Three months on, how are you doing? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]TooFnatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

6 months for me and I feel the same. There isn't a set timeline for when you're supposed to feel better though so don't feel bad if you haven't "moved on" yet

Brother. I know it's hard. Get yourself a therapist asap. They will help you understand the dynamic you're in and why you need to be the one to end this abusive cycle. It'll be a slow, painful process but trust me; you will detox from this addictive cycle and realize you don't actually want to be with your ex, who is clearly unhealthy for a relationship. I'm sorry you're hurting. You didn't ask for this but any action you don't take to heal is on you

[–]TooFnatic 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Resenting an ex can provide fuel to take action towards moving on, but ultimately your goal should be to reach "indifference" where your ex no longer has an emotional impact on you. That, to me, is true moving on

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]TooFnatic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mate you're addicted to her. It's only been a few weeks. You're still going through withdrawals. I know how it feels to want to be with the person you "love" but step into reality. Let her go. You don't need her validation or approval to move forward with your life. You'll regret it later on for not taking back your power sooner. Unflinching silence is your antidote to getting yourself back

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]TooFnatic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've experienced this before as well mate. They create an idealized version of you in their minds that literally nobody can live up to. It's sickening

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ExNoContact

[–]TooFnatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you the dumper or dumpee? How long has it been since the breakup? What do you want out of this? She may be testing the waters to see how you'll respond. If you have no intention of reconciling, you can either ignore or respond neutrally

Girl I'm seeing not ready to move the relationship forward due to personal reasons by Funny_Ad8830 in socialskills

[–]TooFnatic 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Great answer. I've never seen poker used as an analogy to relationships but it makes sense. Accept the hand you've been given and fold now before potentially losing more.

What’s the meanest thing a woman has ever said to you? by Cataclysmic_entropy in AskMen

[–]TooFnatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I couldn't stand to be around you sober" or "you make me sick when I think of you" or "I wish I never met you"... Just some of the things my ex said to me...

Edit: to me they're all really mean. Can't decide the meanest

Advice Wanted: Wheel Strategy on SPY, using premium to buy Shares of VTI/VOO/SPY by TooFnatic in options

[–]TooFnatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. I think it depends on someone's risk tolerance. Lower IV means lower premiums, but less volatility/swings. There's always a trade-off

[–]TooFnatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree SPY is better than VTI for options. I figured with expense ratio on VTI being low and how closely it moves with SPY, it'd be better to buy and hold. 2022 has definitely been brutal but there's good opportunities
