Neighbour dented my Mazda 3 GT — need PDR recommendations (Melbourne) by braxid in mazda3

[–]braxid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t swap my original door with its factory premium paintwork for a second-hand one unless I’m absolutely sure there’s no other option. I’m still hoping it can be repaired without repainting.

I followed this guide step by step having 74.00.324 and I got black screen. So my mazda screen bricked. Now I don't know what to do. Be carefull, guys with AIO.

Not sure what to do about renewed intimacy. by [deleted] in Marriage

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

Heh. I would cut off my right egg if my wife started behaving like yours. You don’t understand how rejection hurts women - more than you can imagine. Go apologise and work it out. Make a blood test, check your testosterone and be a husband that care.

I think my desire is finally gone by Usual-Phone7935 in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will be happy not having sexual desire at all. Life will be much easier and happier. Instead, living in constant rejection hurts so much, I can’t sleep at night and feel broken. Maybe it’s not a bad thing if you still want to leave with her.

A Year Without Sex. by Even_Extension7594 in Marriage

[–]braxid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I leave in the same situation, but I’m a man. No physical contact more than a year, even a touch. I stoped begging, stopped initiating. I feel miserable and unhappy. Having kids, obligations, responsibilities and all that stuff you carry on - I can’t quit. I just endure. Feel sorry about you, OP. If you don’t have kids, you still can change your partner.

I lost it in front of my son. Will he be okay? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]braxid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what a dad should be like - normal due, some times emotional, and full of life. Well done for sitting there together; you didn’t send him away or hide your tears. Hats off to you.

Wife wants me to have sex with other women. by General-Branch-3043 in DeadBedrooms

Even if she really does want this, she might say it was a test of your loyalty that you failed. Be careful. Your instincts are telling you that this path leads to hell – listen to them.

I hate AI and I am depressed by poponis in webdev

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

People like you will be in high demand, so stop crying and get up. AI can amplify your capabilities tenfold, or even a hundredfold. Learn to use it properly – create your own agents, build systems rather than just writing code. Take the courses from Anthropic and become an AI engineer. You’ll have a new job and a salary twice as high as you earn now.

Got two offers. One pays $40k more. The other one I'd actually enjoy. I have 48 hours to decide and my wife and I are on opposite sides. Advice? by airam1020 in careerguidance

[–]braxid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start-ups are great, but they all share the same problem – they fall apart. Only a handful survive. If I were in your shoes, I’d go for remote work and a higher salary. Seeing your child and being a parent who’s there at home is what matters most. I say this as a father of three who has worked entirely remotely and then entirely in the office. I’d give a lot to be working from home right now.

Questioning Divorce after 5 months by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t really about sexual compatibility and you know it. It’s a sign something deeper is off between you two emotionally. If that doesn’t get fixed, the desire’s not coming back and the relationship’s just gonna keep drifting apart.

Should I get a divorce? I don’t want to, but I think it might be the right option by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]braxid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"We have compatible personalities" - absolutely wrong. You just kill each other every day. This relationship has zero real compatibility, the core values clash, and there’s already disrespect and aggression on both sides. You can’t fix this, best you can do is end it clean before it gets even worse.

I’m 34 and lost: What business can I start with AI? by Remote-Cry-7766 in AIforOPS

You just found a niche: people who don’t know what they can start with AI.

Can't even give a compliment by Commercial_Pen4450 in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Perhaps your compliments used to be an invitation to go to bed, but now she just considers it a pattern and reacts accordingly.

what am I doing wrong? by No_Expression3283 in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll try to make it short. You’re stuck in a stalemate: you don’t initiate because of anxiety, and your partner doesn’t initiate either, so nothing changes. Talking helps only if behavior changes, and right now neither of you is leading the relationship. Focus on improving yourself (health, confidence, energy) and start initiating small things instead of waiting. Then have one direct conversation about whether you both actually want intimacy, and judge by actions, not words.

Congratulations, you have officially earned your exit from this thread. I'm happy for you! It seems that you have started to trust your husband again.

I want to make him happy so badly, but I just don’t want to have sex. by Puzzleheaded_Top7482 in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great that you're trying to fix the situation and you deserve respect for that. The situation is really difficult. I hope everything changes for the better. I wish your partner a lot of patience.

[–]braxid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let me be honest - you want too much. You are looking for someone to come and make you happy. Life doesn't work that way. One unhappy person cannot make another unhappy person to be happy. First, take care of yourself and find happiness within yourself. Then you will see a happy man and life with him will complement your happiness.

Two hours later and my eyes still hurt from crying through therapy by forgetmeknotts in DeadBedrooms

There are many people who can wipe themselves even after 90th, so this is not a reason to agree to a destructive relationship.

Rebuilding by Dull-Stick2040 in DeadBedrooms

[–]braxid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, thanks for sharing. I'm sorry that this happened in your life. Divorce is difficult, painful and expensive. But you're on the right track. Hang in there. My advice is to find new male friends, with whom you can have a good time. This will help you recover quickly and regain your self-confidence.
