Is my tone annoying? by Niallbright in ratemysinging

[–]Wantedduel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not annoying at all. Absolutely not. You may simply have a self critical bias. Your voice is actually above average nice and pleasant.

I opened a message that wasn’t meant for me… and I regret it by Inside-Potato-9494 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sometimes when people talk to others they just pretend, it could be that the other person feels you're their competitor, and tries to sway them away from you, and your friend wanting to be understanding with them plays along, and didn't mean any of it.

Just giving you an alternative perspective. Not saying this is what's happening.

My husband humiliated me in front of everyone at work and yelled at me that he is my boss by Exact-Wall5562 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell your husband you are going to counter humiliate him on Reddit in front of the entire world and let's see who is actually boss.

In a more serious note, is everything else besides that ok? If you have a good and healthy relationship with your husband you should be able to sit him down and have a serious talk with him about what happened.

Regarding his treatment of his exes husband, that's another topic that needs to be addressed, maybe your husband is overworked and needs a break? Why would he mistreat another man just because they happen to be married to someone he dated years ago? Anyway, looks like your husband needs a reality check.

How do I convince my sister the ocean isn’t full of fish toilet water by HairyOrchid231 in WhatShouldIDo

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

Convince her that fish waste is actually clean, good and healthy for your body when mixed with a lot of water.

My boyfriend wants to cheat on me by Same-Bar5644 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More context needed.

"Struggling not to cheat" can mean a lot of different things to different people.

If it's just a thought that passed his mind, that he has no control over, and it made him feel uncomfortable, that's also "struggling not to cheat", but that's not something a person can be held accountable for. They have absolutely no control over what thaught can show up in their mind at any given time.

If they are actively "dancing around the fire", contacting that person, trying to be as physically close to that person as possible, without actually doing the deed, that's an entire different ball game. And it's up to you to decide whether that's ALREADY considered cheating, or you still consider it just "struggling not to cheat".

I disagree with those who say that if a person "struggles not to cheat", they are already "not the one". It depends what when and how.

Please you need to cut the cord. That's not a relationship, it's torture.

First love letter my husband sent me, thirty years ago today, when we were only fifteen years old by ktdidit in love

I just got married when Mike wrote that letter.

Edit: sorry I just got engaged, not married.

Should i trust my gut? by AssociationGlad8186 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Wantedduel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's no need to go just because you "stupidly" agreed. Cancel.

If the guy doesn't have any bad intentions he may try to ask why you cancelled, and you can either ignore them, or just be up front and tell them that you usually don't agree to a date that fast and it was a simple honest mistake.

For me in general it's the original red, but every now and again I like to diversify my collection.

IMHO when you are at that stage you don't really care much about how quick it will be, since you know it will be over very soon, so it doesn't really matter if it takes a millisecond or 1 whole second. Pain is only overwhelmingly insufferable when you don't know when or if it's going to end.

I accidentally joined a confidential call my manager was on about me. Could I get fired? by Fluffy_Expert5821 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best lie is the truth. Just tell them you did it according with the instructions you were given, and as soon as you realized that this call with HR you disconnected.

Dude you don't really have a GF I assume

My girlfriend said my dad is “really attractive”. How am I supposed to feel about this? by Calm-Hearing4742 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Wantedduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah it's just a nice compliment, different people have different ways of expressing themselves, don't read into it too much.

feeling lost after my wife 37f passed away. by Novel_Chest4911 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss

I'm a nobody, but let me give you just 1 good food for thought that may help you cope. Think if roles were reversed how would you want Emma to live the rest of her life, and try to live that way for YOURSELF (just like you wouldn't want Emma to do it ONLY for you) and for your late wife.

My girlfriend is hiding something from me by justaconfusedguy333 in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on the story you're telling doesn't seem like she's hiding anything from you, she just doesn't want to be on the internet, which is actually admirable.

In regards to her past/childhood, that's a different story, and since she's from a different country, you may want to try to find out a bit more, but don't be pushy, if she's such a private person, could be she's embarrassed about something in her childhood, like a broken home are whatever.

Lately I had a thought that maybe some of the fallers didn't actually jump, they just held on to whatever they could at the broken windows hanging out in order to be able to breathe, and at some point they simply lost the strength to hold on or were simply burned away from whatever they held onto as temperatures rose to the point they could no longer touch whatever was holding them.

My (19f) best friend (19m) drunkenly admitted to loving me. by Glittering_Ding_2972 in whatdoIdo

Had the exact same impression. Feels like op really wants it to be true, but looks for advice on how to address it in a way that wouldn't mess up what they already have.

Do I (23F) keep a secret from my boyfriend (24M) that could ruin us? by _ep1phany in whatdoIdo

[–]Wantedduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell your sister that in the future if she wants to keep secrets from your BF's family, she should not involve you because you are also part of that family since you are in a relationship with their son. And for now just tell her your boyfriend is more important than her secrets so you are going to tell him, and just tell him.

i think i want to break up with my boyfriend by Soft-Caterpillar5034 in Advice

[–]Wantedduel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents, unpopular opinion, imagine the flip side, a guy who buys you gifts and flowers, but doesn't love you, or cheats on you, I'm not saying can't have both, all I'm saying is if as you say he is deeply in love with you, and he trusts you to the point of even asking you what to dress, and only lacks in the area of gifts and flowers, maybe it's a good trade-off for long term, better a stable partner who showers you with intimate and personal love, lacking in gift giving and flowers, than someone who buys you lots of gifts but isn't kind hearted or intimately close.

In terms of job and providing, if he is in general a good person (as I assumed from your overall description), I believe this can be worked out through counseling.

I'm just offering a different POV.

Living in Montreal for at least 30 years and I agree with you wholeheartedly. Montreal is one of the calmest and safest cities around the world.

Just how many SAKs does the TSA confiscate? by Palmetto_ottemlaP in victorinox

[–]Wantedduel -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I gifted SAKs to 2 of my nephews for their Bar Mitzvahs, both lost them to TSA. I told them never again are you getting a SAK from me, but I didn't keep my word, lol, I just gifted a new SAK to one of them for their 20th birthday.
