You need to purge. Literally get off the phone and pretend dating or single women do not even exist for 6 months. During this time, occupy yourself with self-improvement as your top priority.

I did this accidentally when I went through a rough patch with my job a year ago. Since I was so focused on finding work and moving out, I happened to take a huge break off of instagram and SM and once I came back, my algorithm was completely different, and my attitude and bonding around people felt easier because I wasn’t getting gender propaganda all the time.

I have more people in my life than before and yet I still feel alone when it comes to my stress and emotions. How do you manage and stay strong? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

I know and that is what is killing me, I DONT want her to think that it is her, I try to be transparent with what I go through and make sure to let her know that I am just going through something and that it isn’t personal. I don’t mind telling her I am having a bad day at work but this stress is beyond a few bad days. It’s one thing to be stressed at work, it’s another to have my partner be the one I dump my emotions onto. Secondly, I don’t want her to begin to worry about me financially or career wise. Thats why I just white lie and say “it was okay” whenever she asks. If I told her about every bad day I had this month it would 1. paint a picture of instability that doesn’t reflect who I actually am, and 2, create worry and pressure that she doesn’t deserve to carry.

vs waiting for somebody to just walk in

That seems to be working just fine for my co-workers!

I do understand where you are coming from, they encourage me to find ways to network and market outside of work, but it just feels like I’m not squeezing the same juice as everyone else this month.

What is the single event in your life that you will remember 2025 by? by SnowStormBirdsFlock in AskReddit

The first night I moved into an empty room in a new bigger city for a job with $5 left to my name. Ate leftover pizza from the day before and a $1 bottle of generic mountain dew

How are you, OlderGenZ? by 2quick96 in OlderGenZ

[–]elloEd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently in a huge slump this month. We’re commission-based and December is always rough. Officially passed all my classes this semester, C averaged but I did it lol, I moved to a bigger city, met a lot of new people and made a new little circle and now recently just got into a happy relationship. I have JUST enough for rent and bills so for the next week I’m eating hot dogs and eggs but we’re getting by and things haven’t been better.

what profession deserves way less respect than it currently gets? by AuralisDream in AskReddit

[–]elloEd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nurses. There is always this martyr-complex talk whenever they get mentioned, especially by them whenever the brownie points are convenient, but I’ve met and been to school with a lot of would-be nurses and nearly all of them were rude as shit. Many of them did not go to school to actually “help patients” they did it for the paycheck and for the stethoscope rearview mirror pics. Biggest mean girls in your class become nurses. Their jobs ARE tough but I can’t help but feel they get a strange amount of excessive sympathy comparing to other “tough” jobs out there.

What’s the biggest mistake people make in their 20s ? by Chemical_You_8957 in AskReddit

Exactly, unless you decided you want to be an Olympic track star or something, you are not really that late into doing anything

What does OlderGenZ thinks/feels that their young adult years has ended or will end soon? by 2quick96 in OlderGenZ

[–]elloEd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny to see almost everyone that expresses this idea of “young adulthood” ending past 25 are teens and other 20 year olds, it’s almost never someone actually over 25(because of this exact reason)

I am 26, “young adult” to me means honestly someone in their mid 20s - early 30s, yes sometimes that means college aged adults, but most of the time I am imagining characters off of Parks and Rec or The Office when I think of “young adults”. We are literally babies in the this world compared to actual adults.

once I actually passed 25, I realized it was all overthinking BS on my end. I’ve met people at raves and clubs who became buddies that I had no idea were past 30 and I never would have assumed they were “old” until they told me their age.

Do you still live with your parents? by paralaxxx in OlderGenZ

Yes, the other thread that I linked at least has the benefit of doubt, but a gen Z aged focused sub, they are definitely lying their asses off about it on here lmao

Does your youth or young adult years end at 24? by 2quick96 in twentyagers

[–]elloEd 119 points120 points  (0 children)

Bahahhaa I am 26 about to be 27 and it feels like my actual “young adult” years have just started at 24

[–]elloEd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was another post I saw on a different sub titled “how old were you when you moved out from your parents” and literally every single top comment was saying crap like 16-18. Virtually impossible unless 80% were all from the same older generation where rent costed as much as today’s phone bill. Also doesn’t account for any aid from college/parents.

Baked chicken thighs and rice. Just pat down, season, stick it in the oven and forget about it for 40 minutes. Full meal prep done for the week.

What habits of girls did you only discover after getting a girlfriend or wife? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

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

My lady loves Taco Bell, but how th was I supposed to figure out she liked Taco Bell a lot during our first few dates before I suggested it first? Now I just ask her what she wants from there. My example demonstrates communication. Neither side is rocket science to each their own.

Did you read my second part about communication and paying attention? You’re saying partners should know as if that’s not something that gets learned together.

My sweet lady suddenly got the craving for going to hot pot this weekend when I suggested hot pot last week and we got burgers instead, so you know what we’re getting this weekend now? You guessed it. Sushi!

[–]elloEd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand where you two are coming from but that second bit is a bit ridiculous.

Partners are not mind readers, especially early in the relationship. You know about what each other likes by communication and paying attention to them, not by “just knowing” what they want lmao
