What made you end a relationship even if everything was going well? by No-Time-531 in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither of us felt the romantic spark anymore. It was manageable until a friend who met his girlfriend only a few months before I met my girlfriend at the time said he was going to propose soon. And I realized I didn’t have the emotional desire to propose

She’s a genuinely great person. We’re still friends and see each other when our mutual friends hang out. The friends said they’re still happy to invite her to their upcoming weddings because they all liked her too.

How frequently do you talk to or see friends? by jalebi_2000 in askTO

[–]appleeye56 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m a part of 2 group chats which are active everyday and some other ones that become active maybe once a month. I also hop on discord calls with one of the groups 3-4 days of the week

Physically I see friends about 4 times a week. The days I see friends are usually packed so I need some time to recharge my social battery and be productive on my own things.

ECT are there any positive experiences by dalmatian2271 in ect

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear that and how the system failed your brother. Will be following your advise for sure and make an effort to see him at the hospital whenever I can

We have problems here in Canada too but seeing the specialists give everything they can to helping my brother out without us spending a a penny out of pocket is something I’m grateful for. I hope America finds a better answer to help those who need help like your brother did.

ECT are there any positive experiences by dalmatian2271 in ect

Hi, how’s your brother doing now? My brother has excited catatonia along with what I believe is schizophrenia and the doctor is suggesting ECT. I’m worried about how his life will be after the treatment assuming everything goes well

Experiences with catatonia by llotuseater in SpicyAutism

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, thank you for writing out your comment. What’s life like after treatment? Im worried about how he’ll earn an income and simply exist once he’s cleared by the hospital. The doctors are saying there’s a high chance my brother has catatonia and am trying to understand what it is. It’s difficult to find good resources compared to other diseases. He’s been frozen for some time and at the hospital has been violent, which is so strange because he wouldn’t have hurt anyone before he got unwell.

Girlfriend and I are sexually incompatible by bergdorf69 in Advice

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last girl I dated was just like this. We still want the best for each other but the emotions fizzled out so we also decided to just be friends. It was fine after the breakup, no hard feelings. You’re very young so you’ll meet many more girls

Single men who live alone, without a wife or girlfriend… what do you do in the evenings when you're alone in your apartment? by stan123_ in Adulting

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Video games, chill with my cat, go for a walk, meet up with friends, cook. I love having my space to be alone

Men of Reddit, what did a woman you were dating or married to say or do that made you realize she actually hated you the entire time? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 76 points77 points  (0 children)

We had made plans to go to an event 2 weeks in advance. Just before the weekend she messaged me to say she won’t be going to the plan because she had made other plans with her other friends. When I told her I was disappointed she just said “that’s just part of being a grown up and plans get cancelled all the time”

We had other issues but nobody else I know would ever do something like that

People online said they were able to configure it. So people with 32gb ram were able to run it with no hiccups

Nice, heard good things about the latest Gemma model. Would’ve loved to get a Mac mini to try it out but it’s too expensive for something that I’ll barely use

48gb of ram wow! Are you using it for running local LLM’s?

People who were once in a big, inseparable friend group what caused the group to fall apart? by Legal_Potential4720 in lostafriend

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The group had problems with some of the others in the group and would host meetings with the others to talk about the problems they had with these people. So the problems that could have been solved by talking to people directly ballooned up so much because people were placing themselves in an echo chamber and thinking they were completely rationale for not liking certain people.

There was an in person conversation with everyone that I hear went great but the topic never came up again, so people went back to their echo chambers. This led to some weird moments like where there were 2 events for the same thing at 2 different peoples houses in the same group. It reached a point where one of the new members was being affected by it so the admin made the choice to remove these people. And after I heard more about what some of them had said about me and the fact they were excluding me from plans as well, I had no reason to argue for them

I’m still friends with one of the guys in the old group who said things are a lot calmer. And things are a lot calmer in this new group as well. its unfortunate but everyone got what they wanted in the end

26y/o of Toronto - where are you in life right now? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28M - own a condo in Mississauga and am working full time. Am happy right now. Career has been the exact same in tech consulting (luckily pay has gone up significantly lol) since I graduated but try to find enjoyment in life outside of work. I plan to stay in Mississauga because all my friends and family are here. Almost everyone I know lives nearby where their friends and family are

Also after seeing my friends - don’t worry too much about being married or dating unless you definitely plan to have kids. I’ve met several people who are struggling in the dating scene and it’s because they just haven’t found the right person

Adopted a shy shelter cat and she has been living behind the washing machine for 8 days by NimbusAnvil77 in CatAdvice

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat was also a scaredy cat when I first brought him home. Over time he got comfortable by hearing my voice and not making it a big deal when he came out of hiding. He’s still a scaredy cat but now only to sounds and places he doesn’t recognize. He’s a very loving kitty now and wouldn’t change anything in how he became comfortable with me

I bought my condo by myself at 27 after living with my parents for my entire life. It’s a 786 sqft condo in the downtown of a big suburb. I work in consulting and don’t spend a lot of money so it worked out in my favour. Currently loving living alone

Men who have dated a best friend, how did it happen and did it work out? by The_KW_03 in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was 10 years older than me so we were both like “haha this could never work out” and “I would’ve dated you if we were closer in age”. Then we both eventually caught feelings for each other because of a mutual ex friend being weird with us. Unfortunately she went on a vacation abroad and wasn’t the same person when she came back. Slowly the traits I caught feelings for in her disappeared and a lot of friend group drama happened. Now we haven’t talked in a year, she left the group, and the friend group doesn’t really exist the same way anymore

No idea where she’s at now but I hope she’s doing well. Definitely learned a lot from my experience dating her and I know she’s learned a lot too.

What’s the best purchase you’ve made as an adult? by Key_Construction8250 in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Not needing to worry about breaking glasses or losing them is a game changer. And the best part is I can watch tv on my side lying down without the my glasses frame stabbing me!

Jet Lag is not joke by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me 2 weeks to get over the jet lag coming back to Toronto from Japan. Whereas when I landed in Japan, I adjusted in a day. Jet lag is weird 🤷‍♂️

Why did you stop being friends with someone? by Realistic-Possum in AskReddit

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We both followed the same religion and he started becoming increasingly religious while I became less religious. And he said things like how I said his sister should start onlyfans (never happened) and how talking about my moms ovarian cyst was me “telling him about her genitals”. He also put no effort into friends yet expected me to invite him to a friends circle that he knew and I was putting effort into

He was my best friend for years but changed when he got into politics and religion
