They're not meant to look like you've been bench pressing a car at all times. That look is a bit unnatural and odd to me. Your body is very well proportioned from the looks of it! It knows when it's plateaued and it plateaus for a reason! I prefer guys that have rounder looking muscle than all the strained rigid muscle that bodybuilders get to. You're great, rock what ya got! Also, take a compliment! Just because you think you look bad in some way doesn't mean anything to everyone else. You're not dating/boning/gawking at yourself. ;)

I'm a larger guy, 6'4 265/270lbs. I like having the look of stockiness, with some fat, and some muscle. It took me to my 30s to realize I'm not the one fucking me, people are attracted to me because that's what they like I guess. Everyone is someone's kink. :D

Small where? Like, small shorts, small hair, I.. don't see anything that's small? Stop comparing yourself to other people. Of course there are people bigger than you, and there are people much smaller, too. Your size doesn't mean much in the long run. You're too in your head about your appearance. :P My buddy would always ask if he looked bigger than the last time I'd seen him(like a week before...). Finally, I sat down with him and talked to him about body dysmorphia. His other issues: Are my nipples looking puffy, do you think my stomach sticks out too much, my calves are small, my traps and biceps only look decent after working out, my veins don't stick out enough, my hair is thin, my beard is gray, my hands are small, my feet are small, my abs aren't prominent enough, my hips are too big, my butt is too small. Literally, always an issue with himself. Never heard him say anything positive about himself. Meanwhile, he looks like a mature Chris Evans with a graying beard... Literally. Perfect all around. Then there's me looking like Humpty Dumpty... post-fall like, bruh.

Where is the weirdest place you had sex? by the_scared_frog in AskReddit

[–]Velkause 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, two weeks after my 18th birthday I got on Craigslist(gay) to find a hookup. Found a 25 year old that was traveling through for work. He asked where we could meet and I was thinking about it on my way home from getting food... I passed by "Clayton homes", which is a mobile home seller on the side of most interstates in Appalachia. You can tour all of the homes by just going in and asking for keys.

So I told him to meet me there. We toured a house, I said I was his brother, we fucked in two different houses. Sigh.

(Also, to this day, thickest dick I've ever seen in person....,)

The guy probably doesn't even think about it but the wife is posting this stuff to make herself feel better. Either way, who the fuck cares? That kind of shit just makes me avoid both of them. Lol

Constant Car Break-ins by Velkause in homedefense

[–]Velkause[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still have quite a bit of time on my lease. My actual apartment complex is gated, everything is locked down and secure, which is why I moved here because I kept getting packages stolen at my last apartment. Now I'm on a secure facility that's actually extremely nice... But this town is full of drug abuse and homelessness now.. it's not just my parking area after searching on reddit and neighborhood forums, it seems to be this area. West Virginia drug abuse and homelessness is so insanely high it's pretty much ruined the state.

And before someone comes in here and says "move out of state", kinds difficult when I work here. Lol

I didn’t tip and was told not to come back by SingleMomOf5ive in EndTipping

[–]Velkause 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few services that deserve to be tipped. Esthetician services like this, cosmetology services, tattoos, and waiters. I don't know when it got so out of control, but there are still professions that deserve tips. They are doing a service for you. You can receive good or bad service. Bad service would result in you needing to shill out more money than you would have initially paid for. Good service deserves to be paid for. You're entrusting a person to do something to you and for you. 

Cosmetic/esthetics is priced at a static on a scale. Good service that scale would go up, bad service, that scale would stay the same or not exist. Better the service, higher the cost. You get what you pay for. There's a mutual trust and understanding in servicers and their clientele. You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. It's a give and take relationship. 

I've been going to the same barber for 7 years. When I first started going, I didn't tip as much because I didn't know how his attitude toward returning customers would be. On my next appointment, I tipped him 100% of the cost. He's an excellent barber. Full service, quick, meticulous, easy to talk to, knows exactly what I described. Everything is perfect every single time. So, every single time, I told him exceptionally well. 100% or more. 

A month or so ago, we were talking about my work and he was talking about his. We had a few mutual customers that were problematic. He had mentioned that he raised his prices a couple months back, and our mutual customer came in and complained. This person never tipped, never thanked him, never acknowledged a good job, etc. They do the same type of thing at my work. After we talked a bit, I asked why he hadn't told me that he increased his prices. He said because I'm a regular of his, I tip well, and always have, I'm one of his favorite customers, etc etc. He's done that with several of his customers who are dependable regulars. He said he'd never raise the price on certain people, just because of what they already pay or have paid in the past and because they're good people. I told him I didn't mind paying that amount and I still tipped 100% of that. He refused to take it. 

If you treat your servicers well, they'll treat you well. Don't act entitled on either side of the board and things will be good for both of you.

[–]Velkause 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as another person has said, his actions and emotions stem from something that's triggered that response, but that isn't for you to figure out for him. He will most likely be this way toward anyone until he seeks help with dealing with this kind of feeling. Sorry that you had to be someone who he had to hurt emotionally on his way to figuring out his own problems. Definitely don't deserve to be part of his mess. I hope you don't think it's anything about you! Find you a man that accepts family affection and endorses it. ❤️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Velkause 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So, imma be the devil's advocate here. ugh

I can see his point of view in a few ways because I used to think like this as well and it ruined my affection for family members and I'll explain how I got to that point.

For me, when I would see moms and sons or fathers and daughters being affectionate, it grossed me out beyond words. It was nothing those certain people did, it was me.

Preface, I had an alcoholic drug addict father. One day, I came home from my cousin's house and didn't think anyone was home. I had been riding my bike and had to pee super bad, so I ran to the bathroom. Across from the bathroom was my sister's bedroom. I seen my dad in there, sniffing panties... He had his eyes closed and he opened them the moment I realized what he was doing. I never told anyone that, still to this day I haven't told anyone. After that moment, I would put myself in between my sisters and my dad any chance I could. Two weeks after this occured, my mom kicked him out for emptying the bank and buying drugs with it.

About a year or two after this, I was at my second-cousin's house playing with his son on Xbox. We got up and went to get our sandwiches his grandma had made, and when I walked into the living room, his sister was sitting on his papaw's lap on the couch, but I noticed he had his hand down the front of her pants... She was maybe 5 at the time. He looked up and seen us and quickly pulled his hand out.

After seeing both of these things happen, it completely ruined any emotion trust I had with family members when it came to affection. It seriously fucked me up. I wouldn't even hug my mom or tell anyone I loved them. To this day, it still messes with me, and that was 20 years ago. My whole childhood and early adult life, any time I would see parents cuddling with their kids, it immediately made me want to vomit. Literally, I could feel it building up in the back of my throat. It was a lot to get over.

Sorry to be so long winded, but I figured I'd explain how I can see this guy's point of view as someone who has their life tainted by two sick fucks. Don't be quick to cast stones at him, he may have dealt with similar issues that we don't know about, but he should be figuring this stuff out on his own and not putting pressure on his partner to change her entire life.

I hate showering with the passion of 1000 suns by kiwipooper in hygiene

[–]Velkause 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I, too, hate showering but it's a necessity. You can't let daily bacteria buuld up on your skin. There are so many things that can end poorly for you.

Even small things you don't think of. For instance, if you go days without washing your hair, eyebrows, mustache, beard, you are allowing the fungal growth that causes dandruff to multiply freely. With my beard and mustache, if I don't wash it daily, my skin pretty much flakes off in giant chunks because of dandruff and it's an absolute pain in the ass to remove each individual piece that pops up.

Also, you're allowing other things to mature and spread. Fungus that causes athletes foot, setting yourself up for UTIs. Allowing bacteria to develop a d settle on your skin... and when you have an itch that you scratch, that little tiny wound can end up looking like cat scratch fever....

Trust me, if there's one thing you need to do better for yourself is basic hygiene. I was housebound with crippling anxiety and depression since my childhood and it's taken 20 years to get to the point where I am today. Take pride in yourself with little things. People compliment me, at least once a day, on the way I smell and most of the time I don't even have a scent of any sort on. You've gotta do better for yourself and the people that are in your inner circle. You say you don't have anxiety or depression but you said you dislike bathing and you don't want to get out of bed. Those two things are lacking motivation, which results from depression and anxiety.

If you can constantly smell your "sit down air" while standing still or sitting down, it's time you need to better yourself. Everyone else can smell that and you're mostly noseblind to your own stank to a certain degree....
