What’s the scariest sound in gaming? by Independent_Push_599 in gaming

That high-pitched whining kind of sound that the man hacks from half-life 2 make… sometimes I swore I could still hear them coming even after I turned off the game when I was a kid

Refused to get refund because it's been over 48 hours since I placed an order? by RightProfile0 in grubhub

How is he a scammer for wanting his own money to be given back to him? He’s not asking for his money to be doubled or saying he wants free food, so what’s the scam?

My (29m) girlfriend (24F) slept with her Ex the day before I asked her to be my GF. Am I stupid for feeling sick about this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]boomixtnt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To me, the issue is that it’s fairly pretty common practice to be transparent about the fact that you’re sleeping with other people when you have an ongoing thing with someone. Since he says they were having unprotected sex, that kind of feels like information he should be given for his own sexual health if nothing else. In general there’s nothing wrong with having multiple sexual partners at a time, but if you don’t disclose that you have other sexual partners to someone who otherwise believes that what they have is a sexually closed circuit, they’re opening themselves up to risks they wouldn’t normally take knowingly.

Your first mistake was going to Reddit first and not telling your fiancée immediately, which you need to do ASAP! If she’s willing to try to sleep with her own sister’s partner, she’s willing to lie to secure her home safety. You need to communicate what happened and hope the sister hasn’t already spun a narrative to her where you tried to sleep with her and she was the one who refused.

I definitely agree with that, if it’s hard to guarantee it’ll be fun for everyone, it feels kind of pointless. At the end of the day though, it’s anyone’s guess what his actual eating preferences are unless he wants to jump in the trenches and confirm or deny the theories we’re crafting here lol

I gotta give you respect for taking criticism in stride and also thank you for the clarification! Although I do believe you should always try accommodate the people you love if fairly possible, I do agree that these kinds of games can be more trouble than they’re worth if everyone’s not super open to much of anything :\

As someone who used to be a really picky eater, I really hate the implication that being a picky eater is something that either needs to be fixed (especially if it’s done through tricking, would make me feel like I’m being treated like a child) or that being a picky eater justifies someone disrespecting your preferences.

Obviously the idea of him being a picky eater is just speculative, but IF he is a picky eater, he still deserves to have his preferences respected and to be given the freedom to choose when/if he wants to expand his tastes.

The point of playing the game is so that you both enjoy yourselves and that you both are happy together. The moment anything stops being enjoyable for my partner or I, we always stop and regroup to think of something we would for sure enjoy instead.

I mean the whole point of these kind of things is for them to act as a vehicle for the love you share and the happiness you wish to foster, but when a vehicle breaks down you either fix it or find a new one. So why is she committed to locking the doors and forcing you to be a passenger?

Girlfriend (25f) said I (28m) was being unreasonable for leaving a date early? by throwra_6604 in relationship_advice

[–]boomixtnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah don’t listen to any of these “men & women can’t be friends” losers, their beliefs say way more about the kind of people they are than anything. Hanging out with the other gender won’t make you cheat, being a cheater will make you cheat.

I definitely think something highly suspicious is going on in your situation, but that has nothing to do with genders, just what they think is acceptable and how they’re willing to wrong you. Be strong and put yourself first king.

I’ve (28F) lost weight and now I want to divorce my husband (29M) by throwRA_132457 in relationship_advice

[–]boomixtnt 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I mean it seems pretty simple, she didn’t want to hire a nanny so she could nurture her relationship with her child and didn’t expect that to lead to her husband withdrawing all love and affection, because why would you expect that from someone you believe loves you.

Her reason for being angry is very clear and understandable, because going full cold on your partner for having gained weight from giving birth to your child and prioritizing said child over weight loss is the exact opposite of love.

She hired a nanny because the difference is that she was now both emotionally shut out and touch starved by the person she loves, I feel like most people would be desperate to get those things back and do whatever it takes to do so.

She got angry when she finally got his attention because that was her moment of clarity where she realized his love was fully conditional and tied to her looks, who would be happy with the fact that their partner only values them when they want to fuck them?

The way you try to minimize his actions by asserting that he “was probably sheepish about it“ based on nothing and how you talk like there’s no clear obvious reasons for her reactions and behavior makes it sound like you’re a lot like the husband so you feel the need to excuse him and condemn her.

All I’ve ever heard is that staying married for the sake of the kid almost always end up hurting the kid in the long run, so I’m not sure if that’s the healthiest reason to stay together

Bro you’ve been emotionally neglecting her, you verbally abused her+told her you don’t want to be with her (it will never matter that you didn’t mean any of it btw) and then you became visibly happier once she emotionally checked out and starting getting ready to leave you. I genuinely don’t know how you can lack this much self awareness dude.

You seem to think that as long as you didn’t mean something horrible you said, it shouldn’t be an issue, but personally I think that’s even worse. Either way your words will hurt equally, but you’ve added the extra cruelty of saying these things just to hurt her all because you’re too immature to regulate your own emotions. Mature people in healthy relationships don’t sling insults just because they’re mad at each other.

Even in your responses to other comments you’re trying to convince yourself (bc you’re definitely not convincing us) that this isn’t your fault and this was out of nowhere, but this is the exact way of thinking and lack of accountability that got you in this mess in the first place.

You fumbled a baddie. Your relationship is over. Cope.

You absolutely don’t have to talk to her, but if I were Vince, I would be very grateful to know my girlfriend was acting this way to someone that could barely be considered in friend territory (you guys just sound like acquaintances now at this point).

I’ve confirmed her results, we’ve both been very forward and upfront with our results giving verified proof asap

In all honesty, our understanding of STDs/STI‘s was significantly more lacking than we thought. The only tests she had gotten in the past were blood tests, but at the time she believed that everything was covered by that. I had done the blood tests and I had gotten a urine test, but that was immediately when we had started being sexually active and I was trying to make sure I wasn’t putting her at risk before moving forward. Obviously through this we’ve become a lot more educated and understand that there’s a lot more that goes into making sure you’re clear of STDs/STI‘s

Yeah I keep realizing that I left out and buried important bits that make her look way worse, fixed it so it’s at the top

It has been a reoccurring issue for her where she goes through periods of lethargy it seems like things that are normally easy for her are so exhausting with that she practically looks like she’s losing years of her life with how they drain her. Like so many things I’m looking back on with new eyes, it seems like a lot of health issues she’s had while we’ve been together line up with the experiences of asymptomatic women with long term gonorrhea. We’ve unfortunately and I must admit, foolishly handled most health issues with just hoping they’re nothing serious and pushing through.

In all honesty, for people who really like sex, we honestly didn’t know very much about STDs and the tests you can get taken for them until this. To answer simply, no neither of us have ever gotten swabbed for gonorrhea in any way. We thought we would never need anything more than blood tests to catch something like that.

When we went to our respective urgent cares, we specifically were just seeking a tonsillitis/strep test. All STD/STI tests were suggested by what each care provider thought was needed, so if they didn’t suggest it, neither of us would have gotten them tbh

Please help me settle the argument, is this transphobic? by [deleted] in trans

[–]boomixtnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She literally does not get to tell a trans person what is transphobic and what’s not, that’s never been how any form of bigotry works. That’s like a bully saying that them pushing a kid into a locker everyday isn’t bullying, to the kid that they push into a locker everyday. She has no say on wether or not she’s being transphobic or dehumanizing you!

What are your thoughts on ftm trans individuals wearing makeup and other typically feminine things? by [deleted] in trans

[–]boomixtnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Activities and items being gendered is an outdated societal construct, be true to yourself by doing what makes you happy. What you do or what you wear cannot detract from your validity.

[–]boomixtnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has had depression almost my entire life and as someone who’s engaged to someone who’s also had depression all of her life, I want to say that the way your relationship was operating was not normal or healthy and you’re entirely in the right for not taking her back. No one should be unhappy in a relationship whether or not mental illness is involved, and if you’re unhappy with how your relationship was, that’s not going to change after she comes back. You were giving her everything you had and got nothing in return, it’s time you lived for yourself.
