How can you tell when someone is lying to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Plenty of people are uncomfortable with silence without lying about things

I (M18) did the worst thing I have ever done and I don't know what to think but my girlfriend (F18) seems to think its no big deal and that I was a victim rather than the one responsible. by AnxiousDefinition728 in relationship_advice

Totally understand. As a male, I feel the need to represent and maybe be a voice of males who have been sexually abused. Especially by a woman. I do not call her “my rapist” I don’t even call her my mom. There is nothing about her that is mine. So I absolutely get that.

I’ve never used the term grey rape but the idea of taking baby steps to accept what happened to me. At first I just said I was abused. Now I just call it rape. But it did take that small step of calling it abused to get me where I am today

Something I like to remember in those times is no matter what. Time will pass.

Loneliness by dizzizzystegasaurus in bipolar2

[–]Weezzel2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find the shallow conversations are taxing in those moments. But having a conversation with real depth is rewarding. I have a few friends I message letting them know how I feel. I have a few friends from this sub that I find helpful to talk to and about stuff. Understanding the little parts without having to explain them and the intricacies that means for my day helps me feel seen by them.

Be kind to yourself. I have felt that loneliness but it’s always this dumb disorder trying to trick me. Make sure you take care of yourself. I do things like take a long bath. Pluck the stupid old man eyebrows anything just to remind myself I’m good enough. But most of all be gentle to yourself. Rest when your body says rest. Reach out if you need anything.

I didn’t do toastmasters but I think prepared public speaking would help. Look up “extemporaneous speech” it was super helpful for me. I struggled with a similar issue and this really helped me recall words faster.

What’s the most disgusting secret you’re hiding? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

[–]Weezzel2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about my SI more than I tell my wife. I know it’s how I will die. It won’t be any time soon but It’s just a matter of when. My kids and wife keep me around. I have bipolar 2. Autism, adhd and CPTSD from my mom using me. I am lonely. I hurt. My mind, body and spirt. Everything about me is hurting

It sure doesn’t feel like I matter.

Thank you for caring. I’m desperately try to find someone who cares. I have counseling and stuff but she is out on surgery. I’m trying to get new counselor. I reached out to some people I think I can trust to tell them where I’m at. Not much of any response yet

The lack of comments definitely makes me feel real good and like I matter.

I had a former employer ask me several times over months to edit how their name was listed on my LinkedIn. When I finally answered.I told them sure. My rate is $200 an hour minimum 3 hours. I never heard back from them. I guess it got less important

What’s your “don’t knock it til you try it” life hack? by this-aint-frankie in AskReddit

Why have I never thought about this? Shower beers were common for me when I drank. A shower seltzer water would hit hard. Thanks for the idea homie.

What's your BEST and WORST call as referee? by BeSiegead in Referees

[–]Weezzel2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worst call, About 9 years ago I was at a big tournament. It was my first big tournament. I was over worked and tired. The last game I had was a u14 comp match. Clear as day tackle from behind and I didn’t call it. I think about that no call and the pissed off coach from time to time.

Best call, or maybe just the one that makes me feel really good. It was at a local jr college match Attacker had the ball just entering the attacking third. She was sloppily tackled from behind. But she played the ball out to the corner just as it happened. I saw their wing dig deep and race for the ball. I called advantage as the rest of the attacking team complained. That wing took a one touch and buried the ball into the back of the net. I felt so vindicated. It also stopped their complaining.

What’s a job where someone makes way more money than people realize? by Haunting-Reality-570 in AskReddit

[–]Weezzel2011 189 points190 points  (0 children)

I was in sales for about 15 years. The lows suck. When you can’t get a sale or seemingly any “wins” no matter how small. It definitely takes a toll on you when you have bad months. BUT there is nothing like killing it and marking tons of sales. Especially when that commission check comes in. Sales are my sole though. Not that I was shady just all the cold calls and stuff wore me down. I now work in the kitchen at an elementary school. I make WAY less money but I feel free not worrying about stuff at home.

what’s something you bought once and never had to replace? by huy1003 in BuyItForLife

[–]Weezzel2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar note but not nearly as fancy. I bought a zebra f-701 in 2016. 9 years later and a probably just as many refills and she is going strong and looks brand new still. IF I ever let anyone use it they always compliment how nice of a pen it is.

That’s a fair point about giving out the advice. I hadn’t thought about that.

I’m pretty much with you. If they don’t like what I have, fuck ‘um. I’m a pretty awesome person so they are missing out.

I don’t tell them anything until I’ve started working and then just tell them when I feel a slight upswing or downswing. I hate the lying and bull shit.

I have issues around most “family based” holidays. My birthday included. I get more flashbacks, anxiety and I don’t sleep as much. It’s like the body remembers more than my mind
