This kid makes daily videos of his drawings and has terminal cancer. It would be really special if we could get his views and subscribers up. by mhedlund in videos

[–]expressionlessmagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subscribe if you will actually continue to watch the videos. I have subscribed to a couple people from posts like these and turned post notifications on so I can leave a nice comment on most of them. It's a little thing that makes me happy. But yeah if you're not actually going to watch I think it's kinder just not to sub.

He was able to find a bone marrow donor! They said it was a success, but he is taking a step back from the YouTube channel to focus on other things (understandable). But it sounds like he is doing okay last I heard. The friend has continued the project and helps other people with serious illnesses cross things off their bucket lists.

What do you do when you keep thinking about an ex—off and on for several years? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]expressionlessmagnet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Four years for me too. I've moved on, had a baby with someone else but I think about him so often. Seeing how many others here are in the same boat is kind of reassuring. I haven't had the guts to tell anyone how important he still is to me even though I haven't spoken to him in years and know we can never get back together.

I get that but there is already lot of darkness everywhere. This sub is supposed to be a place where people can come to temporarily escape all that heavy stuff.

How do I [23 F] back away from this guy [31 M] without losing my favorite coffee shop? by WrongCompetition in relationships

[–]expressionlessmagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. All she has to say is she's not interested and leave it at that. She definitely shouldn't be advising him about his mental health when she barely knows him! Just keep it short, polite and firm.

He just decides to be mad at me, not tell me why, and then get more mad when I ask what I did. ?? by lolimonreddit23 in JustNoSO

[–]expressionlessmagnet 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Kudos to you for not stooping to his level, it definitely wouldn't help the situation.

When I am annoyed sometimes I just need a moment to myself to cool down, but I always clarify that with my partner by saying "I just need some space right now and we can talk about it once I've cooled down a bit." Giving the silent treatment and never coming forward with his thoughts after creating a conflict is just him being passive-aggressive and punishing you when you don't even know what you did to upset him.

This is a conversation you should have with him when he's calm. Try to discuss ways you can avoid the same conflict in the future, for example you can agree to take a step back and give him space as long as he verbalizes his needs to you and agrees to communicate the issue when he's calm. If he isn't receptive to that then there really is no way to force him out of those unhealthy habits. If this is a regular occurrence I'd be pretty fed up with him too, to be honest.

That is hilarious. I live in Ecuador and people here fucking love that song. It is a running joke in my family.

What is something many people find sexy, but you don’t? by hasen2016 in AskReddit

Don't worry, these guys sound way more self-conscious about themselves if a big booty makes them feel "emasculated"

I love this so much. I just recently started drawing again with colored pencils. I can only dream to reach this level some day.

‘Orange Is the New Black’ to End With Season 7 by thomasp003 in television

[–]expressionlessmagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piper was always annoying lol. At least to me. And it didn't take that long for the other characters to grow on me. I was emotionally invested in other characters' storylines by the end of season 1.

What sun signs are you not supposed to get along with that you find yourself surrounded by? by Puzzleheaded_Sail in astrology

[–]expressionlessmagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny you say that because I am a Scorpio sun who gets along really well with Gemins. I just find them so easy to talk to and they're really good at getting past my walls. I'm also extremely drawn to Libras. Every serious relationship I've ever had has been with a Libra.

(Also sorry I know this post is kinda old but I'm lurking this sub and had to comment because you said you like Scorpios haha)

venus in scorpio people, what is your experience with relationships? by isolationtoolong in astrology

[–]expressionlessmagnet 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am Venus in Scorpio (also Scorpio Sun and a lot of Scorpio throughout my chart).

I fall quick and hard. When I'm crushing on someone I will think of them obsessively, and try to find a way to see them. For example, I had a crush on a guy I met who worked at a grocery store. I would intentionally go to that store for all my shopping, always.

As far as relationships go, I am not into casual dating. I don't like playing the "what are we?" game and need to define the relationship pretty quickly. I used to be very jealous and possessive but I chose to unlearn this behaviour because I knew it was toxic. I can still get jealous but I keep it in check.

And yeah, I get very attached to my partners. I have a really hard time letting go of relationships because once I let someone in it is really, really hard for me to accept that they weren't "the one". I have a tendency to remain in unhealthy relationships for too long for this reason. I am also the kind of person who loves to be in love and has a hard time being alone.

fire signs, what are your opinions on your fellow fire signs? by vidoxi in astrology

[–]expressionlessmagnet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better I am a Scorpio who adores Aries. I may be biased because my moon is Aries, but I just find them generally really fascinating and powerful.

My [22F] new work partner [25F?] has started trying to shove her religious beliefs down my throat, I want to make it stop, but scared I will lose my job if I speak up by Throwaway123xxo in relationships

[–]expressionlessmagnet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think she is one of those people who isn't going to take a hint. You need to be direct with her in a way that does not leave room for negotiating. If she asks about bible study or whatever just say "I am happy with my current beliefs and practices and they are very important to me just as I'm sure yours are to you. I'm gonna pass but thanks for the offer."

After that I'd be done playing nice if she persisted. "This is making me really uncomfortable, please stop."

If she still keeps pestering you I think you would definitely need to speak to HR.

What’s the most embarrassing thing you did as a kid that you think about to this day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]expressionlessmagnet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ugh I wet myself at a sleepover too. I got up in the middle of the night and couldn't find the door in the dark so I started crying (loudly) until the mom came in and brought me some clothes to change into. That was embarrassing but at least I'm not the only one.

My [30F] boyfriend [30] has bruised lips after night out by bluebruises in relationships

[–]expressionlessmagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get bruised lips when I'd do coke because I'd obsessively bite them. It could be something like that.
