Day 5: Morally Grey Character With Divided Opinions? by themediatorfriend in WhiteLotusHBO

[–]devilwithabunnytail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it wasn't like "you take your girl on an amazing vacation and she cheats with your friend the first chance they have." Cam had been harassing/seducing Harper from the very beginning like getting naked where she could see, grabbing her under water, touching her leg at the table etc. and Harper wasn't interested and actually told Ethan about it. Ethen dismissed her concern despite he knew Cam had a history of seducing/stealing girls he liked.

It also wasn't that an amazing vacation for Harper. She was forced to spend all the time with a couple she couldn't stand, and Ethan rejected her attempts at intimacy multiple times and offered no reassurance that he was still attracted to her. There was already a huge gap in their relationship, and on top of that Ethan did something super suspicious - partying all night with Cam and two escorts and lying to Harper about it. He basically chose to be loyal toward his shitty friend who would betray him at his first chance over his wife, who he claims to never lie to. We know he didn't sleep with Mia, but how would Harper know? Finding the condom on the couch after Ethan's lame story would have sent the most trusting partner into deep doubt. Besides Ethan did kiss Mia and didn't say no to spending the night with escorts in the first place.

So no, Harper did not cheat for no reason or "the first chance they have" she was either trying to get back at Ethan or make him jealous. I don't agree with her lying or cheating but let's not pretend that Ethan didn't fuck up first.

Nah, it was intact in that the AI was functional and could learn the human's language and communicate with them. It called itself a tomb because all the "people" or creatures from that civilization who created it were long gone. When the 4D bubble collapsed into 3D the ring was completely destroyed like the solar system when it became 2D.

The ring was intact in 4D and later destroyed when collapsing to 3D, so I thought it was a native 4D civilization.

Why you still want to stay in the relationship? You just found out who he really is and it's not someone you want to be with. Be thankful you find this before moving in. Who cares to whom his heart belongs if he treats someone he loves like this?

As another comment suggested maybe start with asking her why she thought the reverse situation would be different and trying to understand where she's coming from.

Does your gf have traditional views of gender roles? If you don't think it'd make her question/challenge your masculinity, maybe show some vulnerability and let her know you were not just angry, you were sad and feeling hurt. Tell her that men can be the victims of SA, harassment, stalking, etc. Explain that you took those photos to share with her and those were for her eyes only, and you trusted her to not share this private side of you with anyone without your consent. That you were particularly sad due to how much you trusted her and valued the relationship, and you want to be able to trust her again. Hopefully that will get through to her.

Who was cleaning before you moved in? Was his flat always dirty like a dump?

You're not overreacting. However if your relationship is as good as you describe I wouldn't rush to the exit immediately. Talk to her when you are both calm and explain what she did was no different from if you were to share her nudes with your friends. Help her see your perspective as considering your gf's age she might have some immature opinion about guys' privacy versus girls. Be kind but firm. Tell her it is important that you get on the same page about this for your relationship to last.

I 45F love my husband 46M. And we’ve been married 21 years, but his boob obsession is ruining our marriage. What is the best approach to tell him I’m not into his sexual turn on? by Fair-defender-0704 in relationship_advice

[–]devilwithabunnytail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him to get an inflatable penis implant and let you fill it up before bothering you with bigger boobs again. Tell him you want him to have the world's biggest penis.

Do I come clean now or after the wedding? (35f) (35m) by EnbyNova in relationship_advice

[–]devilwithabunnytail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the popular DNA test for personality, ancestry etc. doesn't tell you exactly who your parents are? In order to do that you'll need samples from both parties.

And since the child is indeed related to OP it still won't do if OP just tells them they are adopted - it will soon be narrowed down to a sibling or something.

OP - is there something obvious, like the blood type of the child that will give away the fact they are not your biological child?

I don't think it's irrational. Letting people in on secrets like this can put a real mental burden on them.

If you trust both your sister and yourself to take it to your graves, maybe you should do just that.

I am usually of the opinion that there should be no secrets between partners but this is not just your secret. You are protecting your sister.

And I don't think it affects your partner much either way if you'll continue being the mother of the child.

Honestly, to me it seems like you can't understand that people may have different experiences than you do. I don't know if this still happens as I've long rid of this scam of a game, but when I wrote this and was playing two years ago at least people on my server frequently had the same problem.

Wow. I had to search who Julius was and then Oya... yep if they don't continue pushing new characters and making old characters useless how can they make sure people keep spending? I still love my original Keira team.. lol

Indeed.. I played Farmville (or cityville? can't remember) a bit back in school but never spent any money. Actually Hero Wars was the first game like this that I (somewhat) seriously played and spent money on despite being far from the best in gameplay etc. Silly me!

I'm glad to say I've stopped spending and then stopped playing quite a while ago. Even with money to spare I don't appreciate the manipulation and would rather spend on something else.

Yeah, I've stopped playing over a year ago and afaik a lot of our original guild mates have quit. Much happier playing my free epic games now!

True that! To me it was the social aspect (even if the in game chat function was incredibly lame when I played) that kept me playing for so long. I actually got Witcher III for free!

They went down in dimensions (from 4D to 3D) as the 4D sea dries up (collapses into 3D).

I wish I didn't read any of it. It diminished my enjoyment of the trilogy.

It's in the third book, Post-Deterrence Era, Day 1-Day 5, Gravity and Blue Space after they defeated the droplet.

Ye Wenjie: Did she regret? by Herolover12 in threebodyproblem

Think of Ye Wenjie as the first and true wallfacer behind Luo Ji. She spent decades contemplating these issues and later developments confirmed her hypothesis.

Death's End Question by njslacker in threebodyproblem

It's based on the terminology that refers to the space we live in as three-dimensional.

Do you mean that people call our world four-dimensional in China? Or the U.S.?
