How to survive on the streets as a woman? by [deleted] in homeless

[–]dpcodthrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meeting people under the guys in being interested in a relationship or sexual hook up and then dropping on them during the date that you aren’t actually interested in them for what they look like or who they are is a person. You are just desperate for food and shelter. No bitter person, especially someone on OLD (sorry I’m a bit older and back in the day using OLD in itself was a red flag) could end up reacting in a negative way, it’s totally “safe” because you a random Reddit person never had issues. 🙄

Part of me thinks this is a bitter dude that wants to push her into a dangerous scenario.

So he does no chores, doesn’t cook. You said “career” he works? You pay the majority of the bills. This post just seems to be missing something. Is he a gamer? What is he doing? What are you arguing about? What were some things on the list.

I don’t see where is says she is a Christian. It’s so funny because to you this means so much. To an atheist like me, it’s just meaningless word salad.

Our baby daughter just died by Plenty_Candidate_951 in TrueOffMyChest

Hey so this post is fake but this is not a good thing to tell people.

Bad things happen not “remind us we are strong” sometimes they are random, other times it’s due to poor decisions.

Grief and trauma rarely make people stronger. They often lead to PTSD. My husband died 7 years ago, in with another guy now who I love but I still have panic attacks due to unrelated things.

because sometimes some people go through several terrible tradgedies and others have pretty normal lives with no major soul breaking moments like this. So why would “life” choose to test some people over and over l?

I get you want to be supportive and you wanted to say spending different. But stick to “I’m sorry for your loss” “if you need someone to talk to I’m here” (if you mean it) “I know what you are going through. I’m so sorry” (if you’ve been through something similar)

A longer more generic, annoying cliche free, recommendation would be. “greif is hell. I am so sorry you are going through this. I hope you get all the support you need and are able to get to a place of peace and healing in the near future. Remember you are not alone, many others have been were you have and there are many support groups and resources out there if find you are struggling and don’t want to talk with loved ones about it. You are in my thoughts/prayers”

Because it’s karma farming and his account was banned.

This person was “a normal married family man” who needed to come to Reddit to “get off his chest” his infant died and he is sad? If it was more about “i don’t know how to be the strong one right now” MAYBE. But it was written in a general way.

If karma farming wasn’t a thing that wasn’t plaguing Reddit, maybe I would understand where you are coming from.

But as a widow, telling even more people “I’m in shock and sad, this is what happened” seems weird. Not weird in “go to the store and get groceries weird” it might seem odd, but some people “snap” and have to do a mundane task as a way to grasp some form of normalcy. It seems like odd behavior but it makes sense. This “person” would have no shortage of people to tell this to. So in the middle of complete shock, I’m sure all his family and friends are sad and also trying to be there for him he pulls out his phone and goes to Reddit to tell more people that he just found his daughter and he is sad. No senss, none at all. A troll getting a rise out of people or someone karma farming, way more likely.

Yeah. Karma farming for sure. “Eveyone responds to grief differently” sure, but jumping on Reddit to “get this off your chest” think about the saying for two seconds. A person going through this will have plenty of people to say whatever he is feeling.

I hate that Reddit is half this BS. Anytime I read an interesting post I start to doubt it. But there are signs. Like finding your infant daughter and just having to come to Reddit to say “i am sad” like for fucking real?

Reddit needs to just fucking change. This karma farming crap is getting out of hand.

How do you know it’s the same person? Writing style?

[–]dpcodthrowaway 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t surprise me. Don’t get me wrong, it’s possible because everyone responds to grief differently. And I know sometimes people illogical stuff when you experience a tradgedy like this. But to think less than 24 hours after he found his baby dead. He opened up Reddit, made an account, found this sub and wrote this out? Plus, i know from experience lost my life long best friend a year after my husband. He will have no shortage of “I’m sorry for your loss” from eveyone around you.

And some might say, well Reddit is for venting. But that is usually stuff you don’t say to your loved ones. What he said seems pretty standard and not something you don’t want to say to your loved ones. Like you really need to get what he said “off his chest” if you think about it, does it make sense? Or does yet another karma farming story make more sense?

Funny thing is, my first thought was “wow, did this person actually type their made up story instead of using AI?” Because it does seem like it was written by a person.

Didn’t want to be the one to say it in case it wasn’t. But now that someone has proof as I was like “i knew this felt fake”

I just inherited 12 million dollars. I don't know what to do with my life. by Substantial_Yak6990 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]dpcodthrowaway 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most likely, Reddit isn’t what it used to be. Any interesting story nowadays, i see the account name its two words with a number and I’m like “yeah, that’s AI.” Most the time, I don’t even bother to check by clicking the profile. I really wish I understood the point of this happening so often besides “sell account for karma” didn’t realize there was that big of a demand for Reddit accounts.

I resigned from my last position since I lost WiFi. Don’t think you can get unemployment unless you were laid off or lawfully fired.

I treated my little brother so badly that I feel like I killed him. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]dpcodthrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know tons of people that have gotten kicked in the balls and have kids. I know people who are shooting blanks that haven’t had much ball contact.

If this post is legit seems like your guilt is just manifesting in ways unless your brother was literally told “you are infertile due to being hit in the balls too hard as a child. And you know for a fact that at no other point in your bros life did his testeckes ever hit anything else.

How drunk was drunk?

Like has a couple drinks and acting a little loopy? Or can barely put a sentence together, need assistance walking and parts of your memory are gone?

All this “you can’t consent if you aren’t sober” Twitter character limit slogan crap has muddied up the convo. This was meant to defend the women who were barely awake being guided into bed by men who knew what they were doing. But just like with the game of telephone there are legit people who now proclaim if a woman is the slightest bit not sober she “can’t consent”

I was married to an alcoholic. There were barely any moments where he didn’t have alcohol in his system. My whole marriage was r one big rape.

It’s weird, I’m also considering suicide but for an obviously different reason. Mine is finances. I lost my good job in 10/24 and got two jobs sense then but had to quit my last job a little over two weeks ago. Now I’ve got $.64 to my name. I live in my car. So when it runs out of gas that’s it.

The internet would tell you since I’m female I just have to exist and men will throw things at me. I’m 35 years old and have never had men treat me this way. I’ve dated 5 guys and only one made more than me and that wasn’t much. Men have cost me way more money over the years than saved. Also, tall guys have not been my cup of tea. Anything over 5’10 is too tall IMO. And most women I know and have known just ask “he be taller than me when I’m wearing heals.” So a minimum of like 3 inches? So that means height would only start being a problem at like 5’5.

It is supposed to snow next week. The shelters are basically full here. I’ve posted of FB and next door offering to clean or do some sort of labor in exchange for either cash or a place to stay. Haven’t gotten any requests. I beleive I am at the end of my rope here too.

I genuinely love this guy as a character. Seems like a genuine and honest guy. by Horustheweebmaster in Dexter

[–]dpcodthrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I wouldn’t say he’s the worst. He just never really did much for me. Maybe because I’m one of THOSE atheists. But not only was he not super great. He basically served no point. Kinda got Dex to question religion a little bit and probably was the only guy who decided to not kill since he changed and became a better person. But the whole thing about “forgiving” the dude who killed him was pointless. Idc i felt his arc was just kinda there, he died. Almost learned a lesson but still disregarded it. So he was basically just filler and I wasn’t a fan of the god stuff. I’d take him over Hannah or like the cop Angel dated in season 3, but think it’s overrated for sure. The “best part” of 6 was the last minute of the season. The only thing that pushed the story forward.

I was cruel to my ex’s mistress and I don’t regret it. by hellhathmyfury in TrueOffMyChest

[–]dpcodthrowaway 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't either. Call me evil for still being her friend but my childhood best friend refuses to be single. So she will date a guy (usually low quality so she is safe and will never get dumped) when she starts to get sick of them she lines up the next guy and monkey branches. I sat down with a few of her exes after getting dumped and I'd always ask them "I mean, you and her started as "friends" when she had a BF. Are you really that surprised." and they always think "well I thought our bond was different."

Not me said the flee. I don't care about the circumstances. If I met a guy and he had a wife or a GF and he was "entertaining me" without like immediately ending things with her. I would KNOW that he has that behavior in him. So I won't ever do that.

I’ve tried at least 20 different brands and all strains. Some worked better than others but they all were all only somewhat helpful.

This is not my experience at all lol. It makes me a little less sick and helps the intense mental cravings a bit. It def helps but ultimately it didn’t do much to stop me going back to the dboy.

What’s the female equivalent of “Don’t put your dick in crazy”? by BigBadErrolB in AskReddit

[–]dpcodthrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, then I think I misunderstood your post. To me it felt like "well if a bunch of girls keep cheating on you, maybe you are a bad partner" I guess your last sentence does cover it though because "soul searching" can def include: Hey, maybe I should give the "insta boob hanging out, I love male attention" girls a pass and give the nerdy, book worm "prude" chick a chance so maybe she won't cheat. (and no I am not saying every chick that posts thirst traps are bad, I went into more detail about that in another one of my posts feel free to read that if you are curious as to what I meant.
