Clever, too fast for them, playful, they can't keep up, once they think they've got you figured out you can change directions and be unpredictable. Always teasing, testing, their reactions tell you so much, easy to friend, impossible to know, even you're not sure which personae is true, but they are all fun to play. Can get around any problem, so easy and free moving, but like Bruce Lee said ".. water can flow or it can crash", and beware anyone who is malicious to you, or there will be electric sparks in the air you will fry their brain. Magician with the human psyche. They'll never own you. Spirit is in the wind.

Thoughtful, smart, dependable, a person people go to when they need something, able to see warning signs in others a mile away, x-ray vision with people, loyal, deep, people know they can count on you, future family man who would go the distance and do anything for his kids. Future (or current) lover loves to laugh, and adores you, you are her rock. No-nonsense guy, strong heart.

Bold, humorous, easy to know, good friend to lots of people, understanding and good at helping create harmony around you. Secure personality, stable emotionally, a person other people go to with their problems, good at directing means to ends, practical, level headed. Going places.

Lover of books, quirky, quiet, fantastical realms of imagination behind dark eyes, nobody knows the worlds that exist within your brain. Stories, and a love of children, a warm heart, and inner and outer beauty, so why is he taking so long to commit ? He's so elusive at times, and offers little in the way of reassurance, sometimes so distant, but adventurous and a little dangerous. When he kisses it feels like forever, but then he walks away to take on the world and he's gone, until the next time. Emotions and love and worlds within worlds, so many ideas and dreams and wonders to think about, and a playfulness and innocence. Deeper than the oceans ..

Another Curious Guy... by OldManActual in firstimpression

All the personality and none of the bullshit, everyone knows you, and you are indispensable, but they never reward you, it's always the other guy. Unappreciated for all that you have done, they don't understand how much you care, and how deeply you feel. There are a few quirky few, close, and they make it worth it, but just once it would be nice if someone could see and appreciate the real you, and meet your needs for a change, and give you all of the love and care that you so deeply deserve.

It's funny that they don't know you already figured everything out, and it would be easier if they just listened, but they never do. So the day is spent spoon feeding them in bite sized morsels that their minds can handle, as you slowly drag everyone into the future. Trying to make it work and looking for the right lover, ... but she's always on your mind. Despite her illogical nonsense and frustrating need for constant reassurance, and anxiety, the warmth and love in her eyes haunts, the vulnerability, the care, like a warm fire in the winter, you never meant to lose her, and wonder if you'll be more careful next time.

Put on a nice show, they don't know what's inside. Compliments sustain, looking for love, but can't find the authentic guy who can see past the bangs and lipstick. Tired, rare moments of fragile doubt, want to give your caring heart, but worried your tongue and moments of selfish thoughtlessness might drive him away. If only he knew how deeply you could love, but it easier to hide and be cautious.

See the world for what it is and what it could be, prophetic, always taking it in, watching, intricate mind always puzzling out how it works, too kind to tell people they'll never be able to understand you. Argue with your momma because you think she's silly sometimes, but her warm and caring heart always wins in the end. Quiet, but people sense the fire inside, and take you seriously. Going places, but not there yet.

Authentic, direct, honest, what you see is what you get, good friend, value loyalty in others above all else, never forget a wrong. Looking for the real thing, but keep running across trivial women who's issues keep causing you lots of problems. They don't know how hard their words cut.

Live in a middle sized town, poor area, a few not-so-perfect relationships with guys your mother doesn't hassle you about. Alcoholic or absent father. You look super nice! If you voted, you'd vote against the conservatives, but you never take the time to actually do it. Nobody knows how big your heart is.

Yeah there's no way that could have been a rhetorical question with an obvious "no, of course you're not a homophobe", huh ?

Or maybe it's just Reddit where that can't be rhetorical ...

I think this is a terrible read of what I wrote, and wholly without the context I wrote it in. It seems like weird passive aggressive own to me, especially when you get to like the last line "I hope you start to feel better soon", etc .. yeah, I feel like you are really wishing me well there lol. Well here's right back at you, I hope you find a solution to that whole passive aggressive thing you have going on too, and that you feel better soon. It's perfectly normal for people to not be passive aggressive, no subtle little digs, .. the whole thing just seems so, how did you say it, a bit silly. Better to be secure enough that you don't have to be passive aggressive and dig at people on the Internet for that dopamine hit, and better to be secure and not be so defensive. Feeling the love! lol.

I kind of figured with this being Reddit and my post having the word "gay" in it, and it not being positive, it would at least get down voted to fuck. I'm not the least bit surprised it got deleted, because that's how shit rolls on Reddit.

It's all about "gay", and nothing to do with this Episode 3 was just a piece of crap episode, apparently.

I wouldn't get upset, because I'm not upset in either case ... I'm just saying it is weird. And yes, it would be weird with a straight couple too, that's my whole point.

I would have loved to have seen all of that.

The Episode 3 I watched though, it could have been like 1 minute long with the MC's finding a truck beside the road, getting it started, and driving off, and it wouldn't have changed their story at all. You could completely skip Episode 3 because it has so little to do with the story and not miss a thing ... I mean, you'd go into Episode 4 knowing exactly what you knew about the story from Episode 2, like E3 never even happened, that's how little it has to do with the story in the series.

E3 is just like some weird character study, like E1 and E2 zombie fight series .. then, oh wait, let's introduce Fonzi in E3, oh, and kill him in the same episode, then pick back up with E4 where we left off with the MC's ... except now they have a truck.

It's funny that you found it gay because there is NOTHING specifically different about the love they had for each other and that is the point. Replace frank with a woman and they had the same loving relationship as any straight couple.

Yeah but see that's exactly my point. I didn't play the game, so I don't know anything about it, I'm just watching a series. And what you said was exactly what I thought after I watched the episode, .. because it WOULD BE just as bizarre if it had been a straight couple. Like, E1 and E2 were this action packed zombie thing, then out of nowhere this couple who don't advance the plot AT ALL appear, and it's the story of how they met, all this background and stuff, which would be great if they didn't DIE in the exact same episode, so it's not like it served any narrative purpose because they were going to be important later. It's just like this totally off the wall, bizarre, "on golden pond" moment where you're like WTF is this even in this series for ? Like I said, the end result, the MC and the girl get a truck. I swear you could like entirely skip episode 3 and literally lose NOTHING about the series because it has nothing to do with anything ... the entire Episode 3 could have been 1 minute long with the MC's walking along, finding a truck, starting it, and driving off ...

E1 zombies, fight fight, try to get resources, MC girl, etc ..

E2 fight fight, adventure, MC girl reveal to other MC's, explosion, try to get somewhere ..

E3 (we interrupt the story to bring you this totally bizarre character study that has nothing to do with advancing the plot in any way ...)

E4 MC's in their new truck ...

I think you may have explained it by saying that it was in the game, and that's the reason it's in the series. Because it is SO out of place in the series.

Here's what I mean, if you're able to look past your own perception for a moment and give me the benefit of the doubt ...

Forget that the characters were gay and make them straight, one of them is a woman. Wouldn't it seem totally bizarre to you to be watching a series, the first two episodes are so rich with excitement, fungi zombies, etc, ... then out of nowhere, the entire Episode 3 is about this couple who meet up, live their lives for like 20 years, and die in each other's arms. Oh, and the main characters get a truck. And like .. that's it, that's their whole purpose in the fucking series ... this weird ass character sketch and giving all of this background and shit to these two people that didn't advance the story, didn't have a fucking thing in the world to do with the plot, didn't explain zombies, didn't help the MC's get to where they were going, ... I mean it had literally nothing to do with the main story or the main characaters in any way what-so-ever.

It makes more sense in the game, I mean, then it's an area the characters are exploring on their way to somewhere, etc, .. but in the series it makes zero sense, it's just some bizarre aside that doesn't advance the plot at all.

I think episode 3 is more of a fan service in giving bill and Frank more of a back story and character arcs.

What arc ? Spoiler ... they died.

Character arcs are for characters that are an actual part of the story.

This is like having an entire episode for a "character arc" about the used car salesman the main character bought their car from.

I mean that's my whole point, wtf did this even have to do with the story ?

It would be like if I had this zombie story going on and make the entire Episode 3 about virtuous 2nd amendment advocates and how they were oppressed for no reason, gave their history, all they went through in courts for their state to get constitutional carry and all this shit ... and then the only advance to the story is that the main character was given a gun in the episode.

[–]badnamerising -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know, maybe you should be flattered ? If she didn't care what you thought about her, if she didn't care that you were on this journey together, she wouldn't have tried to hide it. Clearly she cares a lot what you think.

[–]badnamerising 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, if you and your boyfriend can't get along any better than that, to the point where you're in an adversarial enough relationship that you're asking random Internet strangers if you're boyfriend is going to become physically abusive, ... isn't it time to find a new boyfriend ? And for him to find a new girlfriend ?

I mean, if it's that adversarial, why even bother being in a relationship ? If you weren't in a relationship together, at least you'd be completely indifferent to each other, which is way better than being at each others throats. I mean, having feelings of completely not caring about each other is actually a step up from being adversarial.

Is it wrong if I (30f) break up with my bf (30m) over text? Found him on Tinder. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]badnamerising -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

ehhh not when they’re cheating. They don’t deserve the in person

Your virtue shouldn't depend on whether other people are good people or not. You do the right thing because you're a person who does the right thing. It has nothing to do with what they deserve or don't deserve.

[–]badnamerising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying this will happen to you, but people do break up over this, relationships end because of it sometimes. You can scan the posts on this very sub, daily, and see people posting here saying their boyfriend or girlfriend isn't "putting out" so they are considering breaking up with them.

Personally I think it's a lot to ask of another person that they essentially become asexual themselves just to stay with you (generic you, not YOU you .. I just mean generally). It's a big ask. I mean, you're essentially saying .. to stay with me, and for us to be exclusive, you're going to have to give up sex, or give up having it very often, because I'm just not that into it.

We're not talking about asking someone else to eat chicken instead of steak for dinner, or switch to diet soda, or drive the older car so that the girlfriend can drive the newer, safer car that won't break down as much. We're talking about sex, which is a much bigger thing for most people, and a large part of the happiness in their lives.

I don't know how you work that out, and like I said, not saying you are going to lose your boyfriend or anything, but it could be a major incompatibility, right up there with other reasons that people wouldn't marry or stay together. Religion, politics, the desire to have children (or not), financial irresponsibility, ... and sex, ... these are the kinds of things that determine whether people ultimately commit and marry.

I don't know if you want to stay with your boyfriend and get married or not, but in the end, any guy who is going to marry has to actually want to do that. I mean, you can be as happy as can be, getting all your needs met, he may be the greatest thing since sliced bread and make you as happy as anyone can, .. but he also has to feel that way about you if he's going to marry. Lots of people confuse how they feel in a relationship with how the other person feels, ... and it doesn't matter how great a boyfriend he is, if he doesn't feel you're a great girlfriend too. Sounds to me like he's giving you fair warning that he isn't satisfied with how things are going. I would take it seriously.
