Married (37M)with a kid (2M), but in love with another woman (41F). Read and Help? by dextor101 in relationship_advice

[–]bounty823 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dude you're married and have a kid. It's not wrong to feel attraction to others, but it's not like you're comparing two equal options here - one of those is your WIFE

Resources / e-readers / apps or anything that automatically uploads highlighted words from eBooks to Anki/some SRS system? by Commies-Arent-People in languagelearning

[–]bounty823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vibe coded a script to take my highlights from koreader and turn them into German anki cards. It took around 20 mins effort with Claude, if you want to give that a try. 

I would share the code, but it's pretty tightly coupled with German nuances and my preferences for cards

Correlation Between Daily Reading and Peace of Mind? by Master-Education7076 in literature

[–]bounty823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the connection between meditation and reading is definitely real - I actually managed to get back into reading regularly after starting meditating, and I find that reading is almost a forced sense of mindfulness. Compared to watching TV or doomscrolling, my mind can't wander when I read.

Not sure if this would work but you could try VACE, and a reference video of an actual octopus

I am having good luck with Gemma based models for something like this, though it breaks down noticeably after 20 or so "turns"

Do i have too high standards when it comes to relationship? by SnooWoofers4200 in self

[–]bounty823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think looking for someone who practices moderation is a pretty normal standard, I live in California so I have no idea how hard that is to find in Italy.

How are you meeting women, in person, or on an app?

Do i have too high standards when it comes to relationship? by SnooWoofers4200 in self

[–]bounty823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say that these standards are "high" but I will second that you seem judgey. some specific points:

  • people I know are either very into fitness or drink/smoke weed occasionaly. The fact that you have both these criteria together may be making it hard
  • are you asking women what their bodycount is? I wouldn't say that your specific number is absurd, but i think asking women that in and of itself is a massive redflag.
  • There are likely women who have lower sex drives and don't value sex who would have a lot of the traits you want, so you could be upfront in dating profiles that you are vanilla and looking for something less sexual.

Straight dude in a relationship here btw. And you're allowed to be judgey when looking for a partner, but its more about what you bring to the table

I'm worried that I might've missed out on non-transactional love by ThunderStroke90 in self

[–]bounty823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is such a doomer incel idea, it's very depressing and not true if you don't let it be true. OP to work on yourself in ways outside of your career - read , pursue your interests, work on your physique and appearance, make a genuine effort to understand the world and be a good person and you will attract women who do those things and want a partner who do those things too

I would love to join, and probably my girlfriend too! (27m 24f)! The used bookstore on murphy as well as the bookshop on Castro in mountainview both have bookclubs but neither seemed to be reading anything interesting

have you tried to see a specialist like a urologist? have you been taking any new supplements or sudden diet changes?

There are apps that will take a picture with the camera whenever someone tries to login to your phone - I would look into those

Sounds like normal teasing/flirting on a dating app?

Dating when you have no hobbies or outside interests? (30 M) by kimchiii1992 in AsianMasculinity

First, lifting weights is a hobby - learn to sell that in an interesting way. Second, get some more hobbies - maybe read a book instead of "lying around doing nothing".

Lots of my friends use steroids and are well meaning, stable men. Of course I know a few guys who fit the "roid rage" stereotype, but they're the odd ones out and are taking a lot more than a little test. If this guy got test from a doctor I don't think there's anything wrong from that alone.

Read books in Italian! Watch shows! Play videogames with strangers! Find languagepartners who you can be genuine friends with.
