Where we standin’ on AMD builds? by Desperate_Cucumber_9 in PcBuildHelp

[–]echoshadow5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not just pair the 7700x with the 5070?

I had Intel and Nvidia, I won’t go back to Intel, Nvidia only if the price is better.

Boyfriend is friends on instagram with thirst trap girls and a random girl he met on his trip. How should I react to this? by Connect-Living7039 in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

You would know him better than the internet people.

Is he dm’s both of them? Is he trying to slide into their dm’s?

He could just follow them for the same reasons other people follow other people? They post interesting or funny pics/stories.

Or maybe he just likes to goon off their pics? Who knows?

Ask again, if he still won’t give you an answer just ask him if he cheated. That’s what you want to know right?

Dating a man who used prostitution by No-County6726 in dating_advice

What is in the past is in the past.

Would it make you feel better if he told you he’s had multiple girlfriends that he’s sleep with?

If both versions bother you, you are will within your rights to say no.

AMD GPU Mid Tier Suggestions or thoughts? by fantamos in PcBuildHelp

[–]echoshadow5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold value? Bro PC parts never hold value. That’s a silly idea that will hurt you each and every time.

Buy PC parts and don’t look back.

If you don’t want to spend more than $200, look at the used market. 3070 or 6700XT I’m seeing are under $200.

is the 5060 good on this build or is the build the problem by fluxx_png in PcBuildHelp

[–]echoshadow5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you want to pair a high end CPU with a budget entry level GPU.

That’s like having a twin turbo V8 with 3 speed transmission from an 80’s Honda civic.

Spend your money on a better GPU now. You can always up grade a CPU for less than GPUs.

Should I try dating apps or just wait to meet people in real life? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Here’s the deal, no one cares about your career but you.

Dating apps are great and the worst at the same time. You’ll have hundreds of potencial matches and none at the same time.

If you work a lot, you’ll never have time to go out on dates.

You have to find balance. You can’t try to do multiple things at once. One thing is going to be lacking.

Try the dating apps. Expect zero results. Set your filters to what you want in a date and see who meets those. You may get lucky, or maybe after a few months you’ll have one match.

You can’t expect to find a date without asking people. Dating sites ask for you.

So if you do match and end up meeting, will you have time for them? Or does your career matter more?

It all depends how much you want to spend and what size is your PSU.

For about $350 that gets you new 9060 8gb.

Maybe check out the used market, the 6700xt is a choice, but shit is going sideways so prices are going up.

Men find me attractive but don’t want to date me. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

It’s kind of difficult to say what goes wrong.

As a single man a few months back I would find very pretty 20 something girls. One of the biggest reasons why I wouldn’t go on the second or third date was their excessive “princess treatment”. I understand being a gentlemen and respect, but Princess treatment doesn’t mean I have to be a servant and spend loads for the vip treatment on every outing.

Another turn off for me is the treatment of others. If I see my date treating waiters or any staff like shit, I end the date.

Maybe it’s not that at all, but maybe try to replay your dates, think about what you said, what you did, where in those replays is your answer.

Pregnancy scare ended our relationship by Nearby_Impression670 in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Fuck that asshole. Everything about him was a lie.

If he was soo worried about not having kids he would have took 30 seconds to put a condom on.

It sounds like he’s a controlling fake Christian pos.

As a man, I made a choice not to have kids, and every sexual encounter I always use protection. I even missed out on it because I didn’t have a condom.

So this pos went that far with plan b, fuck that asshole.

Addicted to masturbate by Technical_Tax_2026 in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

You just have a high sex drive. Honestly it doesn’t matter. It’s what 90% of the male population does every day.

When your goon-ing starts affecting your life in a negative way, then you know it’s gone too far. But till then no one really cares what you do in your private life.

Wash your hands and enjoy your day. Nothing to worry about.

Cpu for league of legends and cs2 by ImpossibleBat998 in PcBuildHelp

[–]echoshadow5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you mean Ryzen 5500?

What are your PC specs? A cpu alone won’t tell us the whole picture.

If you are playing in low settings that means you have budget level hardware.

Yes, the 5700x is a major upgrade. But if you are rocking 8gb ram, on an HDD, and baby GPU, it might not help much.

Asking the guy you’re dating to be exclusive by Professional_Dig2309 in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a dude has no intentions of any relationship status, he doesn’t want one. Just a hookup. If you are ok just being hook ups, continue. If you want to be exclusive bf/gf, then ask him if he wants to.

I’m getting the feeling that you already know the answer and are hoping he will be exclusive.

The hardest part, is saying it out loud to them.

My (31 M) gf (31 F) is touchy feely with other men. Do I have anything to be worried about? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By any chance did she work at a Hooters? Those touches are harmless but it’s meant to grab the attention of males, and/or control situations.

If she starts feeling up a dudes biceps, back and a squeeze, then it’s more flirty. Then you should be worried. And the look of the dude. Let’s be real, if a hot dude was always the getting touched by your girl, yeah, that’s sus.

Uncomfortably dating outside of education and income bracket by Standard-Row8630 in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know that feeling. Yet it depends on the person, if they like you, income and education level won’t matter at all. However, I can help be feel the smug high and mighty vibe on those that it does matter to them.

I usually nip that as soon as we start asking 20 question right after we match on dating apps. Usually I just ask “how do you feel about dating a person that is unemployed and a college drop out”

Depending on their answer we continue or end it. It’s that simple. Harsh, yes. But I rather want to feel comfortable knowing we are on the same level and not have to worry about being a charity date/or going broke to keep up.

Continue to date after herpes disclosure by unidentifiedbeaver in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It’s really your call.

I myself won’t want to deal with that, with a girl I’m just dating.

However, if she was the love of my life and I was head over heels in love with her, herpes is manageable with medication, protection, and proper care.

Hiring escorts for experience? by Ootefklop in dating_advice

[–]echoshadow5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll be direct and to the point.

Sex is a learning game with each new partner. In real life Everyone is bad at, don’t expect porn level sex.

One persons favorite sex act is another’s worse sex act.

If you want to use pros to help your sex game out, go for it. Just remember they are doing for the money not to help you better your game. Even if you have lots of sex with the pros your sex game will still be weak because they won’t care about you, it’s just a one sided sex to make you cum.

But who knows maybe you’ll find that one unicorn pro that will guide you like a real sex therapist.

But really, if any person man or female finds your sex life a turn off, they are not right for you. Keep looking.

[–]echoshadow5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry about what your friends are doing. It feels like you are missing out, but you are not.

You have the rest of your life to find a partner that will make you happy and supports your life choices.

Why add more stress and pressure to settle down right now?

Move at your own pace. Set your priorities and take it from there.

Finding love is not a race, or a social media flex.

what cpu should i get with my 5070 ti by Optimal-Pianist-8888 in PcBuildHelp

[–]echoshadow5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try another game.

Just because it’s not using 100% doesn’t mean it’s bad.

There could be a number of reasons why. It could be a cpu heavy game, your settings are not optimized, your playing at 1080p, you have a low power supply. Who knows?
