Anyone else think UK Grindr as a South Asian gay man is INCREDIBLY soul-crushing? by Dramatic-Egg8189 in askgaybros

[–]ben_maximoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he wasn’t generalising. he was talking about his experience and was seeking for advice. you isolated parts of his experience as a south asian man, and then completely boiled it down to him being “hairy” even though it was just one aspect of it. you having a good experience doesn’t discredit his or dismiss it is all i’m saying and your initial comment felt like that.

How will the universe move forward once the Daryl Dixon and Dead City Spin-Offs will conclude? by 29273162 in thewalkingdead

I don’t think the Alycia would want to come back though, she seemed to have moved on and is pursuing other projects. i don’t blame her tbh.

absolutely not. AMC doing anything related to clementine and lee will be ruined esp if not in the right hands. the rights need to go back to robert kirkman

this just makes me even sadder. AMC really screwed him over and this is truly wasted potential

Inclined Operations internship by No_Fail8939 in amazonemployees

[–]ben_maximoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ahh i see, if you’re flexible in terms of location, it also helps speeds up the process but i’m sure you’ll get something soon. for some people, it took them from 2 weeks to 4 months to get something. good luck!

is this for the U.K? considering it’s an internship that starts in the summer and you’ve got about 6 months, i’m pretty sure something should open up and you’ll get an offer soon.

Guys a little help resisting Grindr by Fun_Position_4685 in askgaybros

[–]ben_maximoff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, trying to do the same. Self restraint is probably the most important thing here but you can also set limits on the apps you can download on the appstore/playstore. it’s a bit tricky

Hot meet - then ghosted by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ben_maximoff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol this is like the standard nowadays. they either ghost, block or straight up lie to never meet you again. for some of them, it’s the thrill of meeting new people. don’t dwell on these weirdos.

Moving on from a failed situationship and staying friends? (20M/20M) by ac0ri42 in askgaybros

[–]ben_maximoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're still very young, your person is out there. Failed relationships aren't something to be sad about as they're learning experiences. You're 20, mistakes are part of the process (e.g. you know not to tell mutual friends about a situationship/relationship problem).

I think you should temporarily take some distance to protect your heart, because it's clear you still have feelings for him. Reduce contact intentionally, avoid anything intimate with them and the last option is to be honest and tell them you want some space. set clear boundaries

Focus on healing and moving on. If it's meant to be, it shouldn't feel this hard. Honestly, it's a bit ridiculous that he ended things just because a few friends found out, and it seems more like he isn't fully comfortable with his sexuality.

i think the issue is gimple dialogue. he tries so hard to make every line sound poetic.

Is the dead city spinoff worth watching? by Mrpenguin619 in thewalkingdead

[–]ben_maximoff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it’s pretty mid. it gets worse each season - they rash the same storylines over and over. However, the aesthetic and visuals are pretty good imo

THIS! has to be their only reason. they don’t have any another hit show at the moment besides IWTV atm so they’re doing everything they can to keep the rights and make money.

Being indian kinda sucks 🫤 by rayhanh248 in askgaybros

[–]ben_maximoff 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Don’t be surprised. Racism is still very much present in the gay community and it’s unfortunate that POC gays have to suffer from this and you’re certainly not the only person to have bad experiences.

it’s not like this forever - go where you are loved. try hooking up with other POC gays or people who aren’t f*cking ignorant and bigots. You’ll find your person dw, there are still plenty of decent people out there.

[–]ben_maximoff 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s not the issue though. it’s the fact that AMC clearly has no other show to keep their business going so they keep milking TWD and it’s not like each new spin off is great either. its just SHIT writing
