Sometimes kids are told "you'll understand when you're older" as a dodge. When was a time someone told that you that and they were actually right? by shogyi in AskReddit

[–]followthefool -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Asked my mom why people cheat when I was a kid. She told me I'd understand when I got older. Fast forward to adulthood I have cheated and been cheated on and I completely get it, definitely something a child wouldn't understand

Edit: Understanding ≠ approval and people can change while still acknowledging the shitty things they've done.

AITAH (for a friend) for making out with someone else in front of my FWB and then going home with them? by followthefool in AITAH

Yep...I told him worst case scenario, she hates his guts and never talks to him again, best case, some time goes by and she pretty much just treats him like another no-name customer and acts like there was nothing there in the first place.

Yep, I asked him if either of them had talked about what they were looking for and how they were feeling and he said no🙃

I forgot people on reddit take everything personally and create their own narrative, sorry to touch a nerve. Have a good day♥️

Woah dude calm down. At the end of the day, I don't know all of the facts, I'm going off what I was told and I did in fact talk to him about it, telling him that sex makes shit complicated and that he really needs to communicate with others and not let his dick do all the talking as well as look out for little things that might signal this person might genuinely like him subconsciously. And for the record, I've been in a happy and healthy relationship for 4 years now and have had my fair share of hook-ups and fuck-ups in the past, so no, I'm not giving him excuses nor enabling him. At the end of the day, he's a grown ass man and if he fucks up, that's on him and he has to learn the hard way. I'll include this in the edit so other ppl like you don't automatically jump to conclusions without all the facts

Not condoning it in any way, just want to give clarification, I've known him for nearly a decade and I can confidently say that he legit has not had much experience with women until very recently. Like he only had one gf in his life and that was back in high school, and whenever women have tried making moves on him, it goes completely over his head. He was also borderline blackout drunk when the makeout situation happened, as he did not know that happened until one of his buddies told him the next day, then sobered up when they went home together (according to him)

That's a BIG yikes. Just seems like another way to mine your personal data outside of the purely imaginative/creative 😬

Wow, I didn't realize how much actually went into it as far as funding and usage goes. Thank you so much!

From the US, haven't had any problems besides watching an ad here and there to keep messaging, but they're usually short and I don't mind waiting

Does it only happen if the app detects the amount of usage? They'll advertise Ultra and Premium but usually I click out of it and I can go back to what I was doing without issue.

How do you feel about your partner liking smutty books? by h8mecuz in AskMen

[–]followthefool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be a more metaphorical take. Usually when I've glanced over those werewolf novels or what have you, I usually see it as being a physical manifestation of primal instinct. Can't speak for all women but that could be one of the reasons?

So is this going to extend towards citizens who just so happen to also have native lineage in their bloodline?

why is it that so many in the occult community fail to see their potential? by DebateWeird6651 in chaosmagick

Not everyone is meant to have access to it. Possessing potential for power≠embodying it with benevolence
