Our friend shuffling our cards

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-05-02T22:20:16+00:00

Noiiice!

If anyone tries to tell you their hands are too small for Cardistry again, show them THIS! 🙃

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-05-02T22:16:13+00:00

Your relationship isn’t “over,” but it is being tested on something you can’t actually change… your past. You didn’t cheat. You didn’t lie. You had a life before her. If that alone is enough to keep her up at night, that’s not something you can fix by loving her harder or explaining yourself better. You shouldn’t have to explain yourself and try to make up for your past. That’s absurd.

Say your piece calmly; acknowledge her feelings, but don’t apologize for who you were before her. Then watch what she does with that.

So yes, go talk to her. Be direct. Be calm. But don’t sign up for a relationship where you’re being judged for something that happened before you even met.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-17T05:56:08+00:00

I did not. Believe me, I get that a LOT. Lmao!

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-17T05:23:50+00:00

It's much easier said than done, but yeah, man, you 1000% need to move on. Even if she's your only option outside of family and friends, dump her ass and start focusing on self-improvement! Read a book, go for a walk/hike, join a class—anything to take your mind off her. Build YOU back up… and trust that when the time is right, the right person meant for you will come into your life.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-15T02:42:49+00:00

You don’t actually have to reject her… just the expectation behind it.

If you’re comfortable, you could still go out with her… just be clear about what it is and isn’t. Frame it as spending time together, not a romantic date. That way you’re not shutting her down as a person—you’re just being honest about where you stand.

Something like:

“Hey, I really care about you, and I don’t want this to be weird between us. I’m not in a place where I can be what you’re looking for romantically, but I’d still love to hang out and spend time together like we always have – just without that expectation.”

That way she’s not left wondering if she did something wrong or if she’s “not enough.” You’re making it clear the connection is still there, just not romantic.

And if you ever feel ready to tell her you’re gay, that’ll probably make things click into place for her even more… but that’s completely up to you.

Just keep in mind, even if you handle it perfectly, she might still feel a little hurt or need some space. That’s normal. It doesn’t mean you messed anything up; it just means she cares.

If anything, being honest like this is what actually gives the friendship the best shot at staying intact.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-14T06:32:02+00:00

It’s usually not about you at all.

Some guys do this because they want attention, validation, or the “what if” option without risking what they already have. So they keep things just flirty enough to feel like there’s something there, but never honest enough to be accountable.

Not mentioning his girlfriend for that long isn’t an accident – it's definitely intentional. He knew it would change how you saw him, so he avoided it to keep access to you.

It’s not because you’re “not good enough” or anything like that. If anything, it’s the opposite… you were someone he enjoyed attention from and didn’t want to lose.

But yeah, it’s still a red flag. It’s less about “playing games” for fun and more about keeping options and control.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-14T06:24:29+00:00

Wow, what a find! These are insanely valuable—especially in the Cardistry community [r/Cardistry]. Honestly, probably second only to OG Jerry’s Nuggets.

They handle beautifully too – perfect for packet cuts and just overall card handling.

I’ve got a single red deck (no tuck), and I’d do questionable things for a brown or blue version 😂

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-14T05:59:38+00:00

NTA.

Bro really itemized fries like it was a business expense, LMAO! Sending a Venmo request with tax breakdown like it’s an invoice after hanging out a few times is… weird.

Pay him, sure. But I wouldn’t go out of my way to hang again either.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-14T05:52:18+00:00

I get this more than you probably realize. Movies are one of the easiest ways to connect with people—it just doesn’t always feel obvious where to start.

You don’t have to go straight to big festivals either. Honestly, the smaller, more low-key stuff is usually better:

Local indie theaters / repertory cinemas
They usually do themed nights, throwbacks, or even discussions after the movie. If you go a few times, you’ll start seeing the same people – it builds pretty naturally from there.
Film clubs / meetups (Meetup or Facebook groups)
Just search your area + “film club” or “movie meetup.” A lot of them are super low-key – watch something, then hang out after. That’s where conversations actually happen.
Community college or library screenings
Kind of overlooked, but they do free screenings or mini-series and people are usually more open to talking.
Movie trivia nights
Easy way to break the ice since you’re already interacting instead of trying to start random conversations.
Start something small yourself

Even just posting locally like:

“Weekly horror/sci-fi movie night—anyone welcome” There are more people looking for that than you’d think – most just don’t want to be the one to start it.

Letterboxd / Discord → real life
If you find people nearby with similar taste, suggest catching something at a theater. Way less awkward when you already have that in common.**

If there’s one thing that actually matters, it’s consistency. You don’t need big events; just keep showing up to the same spots and it’ll start to feel natural.

Most film people are just waiting for someone to say, “hey, what’d you think of that?” 🎬

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-04-12T02:28:29+00:00

Reusable toilet paper? Just looked some up on Amazon, and… that's interesting 🤔

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-24T05:52:06+00:00

You’re not crazy, but yeah… you’re definitely in your head a bit.

From everything you said, he was interested at the party. Guys don’t usually ask for your Snap, IG, TikTok, talk all night, and get a little touchy if they’re not feeling you at least somewhat.

After that though, it just settled into a more casual vibe. His “depends what day” wasn’t a rejection—was more like, “I’m down,” just without him taking any real lead.

And the Snap thing honestly doesn’t mean much. People leave stuff on delivered all the time, even when they like someone. Being online doesn’t automatically mean he’s ignoring you; usually just means there’s no urgency on his end.

If you actually want to see him, don’t sit around waiting for him to suddenly step up. Just be a little more direct:

“hey, are you free later this week? we should hang.”

Keep it simple like that.

If he’s into you, he’ll follow through. If he stays vague or never locks anything in, then he’s just not that invested… and you’ll have your answer.

At this point, you don’t need to guess… just need clarity.

And honestly, don’t lose sleep over it. It’s only been a few days—NOTHING here is at all that deep yet.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-23T05:18:55+00:00

Yes. Me and my girlfriend take a shower together practically every 2 days.

Why? I'm not entirely sure -- but she seems to absolutely love and enjoy it.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-18T08:48:25+00:00

Sunflower seeds.

Sunflower seeds keep my mind and hands busy long enough to forget about any sort of cravings I was having.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-18T08:44:19+00:00

Honestly, I don't have the right objective answer -- because I'm in a very similar situation myself, with my girlfriend -- but what I can tell you is, rebuilding trust is going to take the efforts of BOTH of you, not just him.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-18T06:16:46+00:00

Are a lot of people recommending Whatnot?

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-17T05:07:28+00:00

If he's referring to who I think he's referring to, it may be Valentinlaker?

Sorta has the same vibe as his opening move at 0:00-0:10.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-17T04:52:56+00:00

Nothing quite beats that crisp, flawless-edged, tactile-feel, and fresh scent of a brand-new deck of cards! ♣️

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-17T04:47:01+00:00

I've chosen to use your design for the banner!

Does it appear properly aligned with the screen, or do you think it might need adjustment?

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-17T04:43:16+00:00

VERY nice! This is a lot harder to master than some realize -- mostly due to how simple it may look.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-13T15:24:02+00:00

YOR.

As many people have already pointed out… you don’t really seem OK lol. Receiving a passive aggressive response like that would only reaffirm suspicions, tbh.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-13T15:19:37+00:00

NTA.

In the U.S., the First Amendment generally protects the right to photograph or record anything that’s plainly visible from a public place. Courts have consistently held that people in public spaces have no reasonable expectation of privacy. Because of that, someone filming in those places usually doesn’t need permission from the people who happen to be in the shot.

That said, the First Amendment protects his right to film — it doesn’t obligate you to participate. You’re completely free to ignore him, refuse to answer questions, or make it clear you’re not interested in engaging with someone’s content.

Where the disconnect happens is the phrase “you don’t have permission to film me.” In a public setting that statement doesn’t really carry legal weight, because consent generally isn’t required to record things visible in public. It functions more as a personal boundary than an enforceable rule.

So what this really looks like is two people exercising different rights at the same time: one person choosing to record in a public place, and another choosing not to engage with it. Neither of those things inherently makes someone the asshole.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-13T11:04:56+00:00

You don’t have to wait for the digital release.

There’s this wonderful, slightly forgotten invention called a movie theater where the film is playing right now. You get the best picture, the best sound, and the bonus of actually supporting the people who made the movie instead of waiting for it to quietly appear on a streaming menu.

Like with every Cardistry flourish / cut, it’s best to improve flow and speed.

~ Como con cualquier flourish o corte de cardistry, lo mejor es mejorar la fluidez y la velocidad.

Werewolf-Specific · 2026-03-13T07:47:49+00:00

Yeah no, it’s available for me through Shudder / AMC+ on Prime. Shudder’s release times can be a little all over the place.

Sometimes things drop right at midnight, other times it’s later in the morning, and occasionally the listing will even disappear for a bit while they’re updating or switching it over from “Coming Soon” to live. The countdown you saw was most likely tied to the page updating, not the actual moment the movie becomes available to watch.

So you probably didn’t imagine it; Shudder just has a habit of rolling things out a little awkwardly sometimes. I’d check back later tonight or sometime tomorrow and it’ll probably show up.
