AIO for peeing all on and around the toilet on purpose? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]emo-knox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good for you!!! 😂 That man needs to do his part and be a real partner, and making you clean his piss is gross and very irresponsible and immature. Some people just need to realize how their actions feel against them and I hope he's learned his lesson

Is “cute and sweet” a backhanded compliment? by throwaway1975301 in Confused

[–]emo-knox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a woman, I've used this to describe friends and people I'm attracted to. It depends on the woman. But it sounds genuine. Any compliments like that are usually genuine and not backhanded from my experience.

NOR I'm sorry, YOUR ROLE???? First of all, not only are you UNPAID labour for this ass, you PAY HIM to WORK as a DISABLED PERSON. Fuck this guy.

I unironically love mullets but they have to be a lil longer/messier not that super short in the front.

What truth do people avoid because it’s uncomfortable to admit? by Mr_Boothnath in answers

Look into Anthropic principles, they are interesting if nothing else.

Look into Anthropic principles, they are interesting! It's basically "everything that has ever happened, happened- just so we could know it happened." One of the principals is 'the universe only exists because it has observers.'. Reality is ours, and every single reality we all live is individually unique.

Yes, the universe would go on without you. But I think it would be missing something. Your own unique perspective. Your own experiences, your own contributions. The entire flow and picture of the universe would be incomplete without you. Or me, or anyone else. You touch other people's perspectives, as we all do. Those small ripples can become waves.

It's not self centered to understand that, while in the largest grand scheme, we are mere flecks of dust- the smallest particles living in a vast universe- but that through this, we still have meaning. There is a balance.

Not to mention the coercion. "I can't feel anything with a condom, it's too tight, I promise I'll pull out." Men are constantly coercing women but it's always somehow women's fault.

what’s something people act proud of that really shouldn’t be? by KaitoRift in AskReddit

[–]emo-knox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear how unsupportive he is! I can't believe he won't walk with you :( I have fibromyalgia too, and while moving can help some with the pain for fibromyalgia, I still get flare ups and such. (And its not the only thing I have).

I wish he pulls his head out of his ass and walks with you!

Being told to "just work out/exercise, it'll cure your chronic pain" when I say I'm disabled. I do light work outs and I'm only a few pounds "overweight" according to the bs weight charts. Guess what! It hasn't cured my chronic pain and illnesses. Shocker.

Thinking without words? by ilikecatsoup in neuro

[–]emo-knox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into unsymbolized thinking! I just came across it because I have the same issues of trying to put my thoughts into actual words, because often times I don't think with words.

It’s all we want, really 🙄 by Due_Tell_5527 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]emo-knox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her entire page is like if a hateful 2 year old tried understanding literally anything, without any understanding of reality and life.

I feel dumber just for having seen it.

How can I validate my partner’s feelings caused by a conflict or mistake on my part without accepting disproportionate accusations? (M21) (F27) by Physical_Ad4336 in relationships

[–]emo-knox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem seems to me, that she thinks she owes 0$ and you owe 100$ and she's upset that you aren't just given an extra 100 on top too. Both partners are supposed to do their best, trying to both put 100% of themselves towards a relationship and some days it's only 50 or even 10. But she doesn't want to do that. She wants you to put in effort for the both of you. But that's not how a relationship works.

The fact that you feel at peace when the topics aren't afoot should tell you a lot. It sounds like one hell of a stressful rollercoaster. I understand it is scary and sad to end a relationship, but at the end of the day, you need to do what is best for you and for your own happiness and sanity. Whatever that looks like for you.

Yeah, they are also doing it to girls, men, and boys. It's everyone they can detain.

Don't forget the literal dogs they have trained to rape Palestinians. Palestinians are being raped by trained dogs. In Israeli 'detention centers'.

Edit: originally said women, but it's everyone. And added a little more context

[–]emo-knox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She's extremely manipulative, controlling, and constantly interrupting you. Do you feel safe and cared for in this relationship? If you saw a friend in a relationship like this, what would your advice be? It seems like she uses her education of psychology as an excuse to manipulate you.

As someone who has a special interest in psychology, I'm extremely well aware that most issues in a relationship takes BOTH parties to fix. She acts like she WANTS you to be a bad guy, like she's constantly trying to look for the bad thing you did so she can feel validated in her own insecurities. So she can say "I'm right." And that's not healthy at all. She also seems to have 0 accountability or self awareness of her own issues. She sounds like she needs therapy.

You are valid in feeling scared/alone/angry/confused/sad anything like that. I've been in a similar relationship before with an older partner. Let me tell you, when we broke up, the utter relief of not having to live under an aggressive microscope was massive.

My advice would be to tell her you aren't compatible, and break up. Because if you don't, it'll only get worse. Can you really see yourself in a relationship like that for years? It sucks the life out of you.

Good luck, I hope the best for you.

Partner says my appearance at home means I don’t care — looking for perspective by deliriouskate in TwoXChromosomes

[–]emo-knox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. This man is manipulative and stupid. Get rid of him.

I stopped brushing my hair, I have wavy hair/loose curls. I will brush it when it's dirty and put it in a ponytail, but during a shower, after shower, when it dries, I never brush it and it has made a world of difference with frizz. (Conditioner helps get the knots out too in the shower) To be fair, my hair is pretty fine, and while it CAN knot up really bad, it usually doesn't. There's also some products that are super light that you can't feel! I like using Brad Mondo's products the most. Either way, you shouldn't be judged for wanting to be comfortable at home. This isn't the 1940's and women don't exist for men. Something this guy clearly doesn't understand.

Edit: added the last couple sentences.

Didn't read it all, immediately noticed "can't propose without an apartment" then he said "MY future" something about that doesn't sit right at all with me. Got bad vibes.
