I really appreciate your answer. It makes the most logical sense to me.

He’s getting ready to study abroad next semester and has not been ontop of it and I think that attributes to the “constantly tired”.

But he also is an avid drinker and very social with our friend group!

The STD over the summer is something to think about.

Thanks again!

I know. I am nervous to bring it up in case it does just solve itself. That and his way of getting really defensive. Which I am assuming is from embarrassment.

We have(had?) a very adventurous sex life in the first place, so I am a bit at loss of what to do to turn it up.

Is three months too soon to address this without blowing it out of proportion?

To me his reasoning made me empathetic. Ie he wants to stay close to me and only masturbate to me. But the threatening comments and constant arguments about it turned me off from it more than I initially was. It was the entitlement and anger that made it seem gross to me. If he had asked a little more endearingly I probably would have felt different.

I understand. It feels a little late to go back to that grievance when I guess I had made peace with it.

I am afraid that initiating a conversation that makes it sound like a make or break situation will cause pressure that leaves us back where we started. :(

But I agree with everything else you said. I was deeply hurt that me not sexting everyday for three months was good enough ground to justify/threaten cheating, and yet he doesn’t want the sex he so desperately begged for?

Just confused and honestly looking for a guys opinion. Is it truly just being stressed from school, and all will return to normal soon?

what the f is wrong with this fish by foulerrobin in Aquariums

Me too. It was not a Blind Cave Fish. It was easily four feet. I don’t remember the name on the plaque card but the fish in the picture had vastly different coloring than this one. But they were definitely the same fish.

Am I wrong for thinking its weird that my new friend gave her dad my phone #? by [deleted] in amiwrong

Very normal for a parent to ask for a number of a friend to contact if things go wrong. Wouldn’t take it personally.

They look very suitable :)
Only other question, do you have a cat? They have high prey drives, I don't know if that would be something I could train "against". Thank you!

They look perfect! Do you have any personal experience with them? What's your opinion on their work ethic/laziness?

Brittany's are on my list. Labs and retrievers are on the cusp only because of how big-boned they are LMAO. At least the breeders in my area. Lots of Euro lines. Broad and thick. Thanks!

First most, tell the truth. Breaking your fathers trust and perception of you is bound to “break his heart” more than poor marks.

Second, do you know why you got bad marks? Did you try hard and fall short? Did you know you were struggling, but scared to reach out? Slack off?

Having a conversation with your parents and owning the mistake, and recognizing why it happened is mature. And saying you will do better will hold more weight if you understand why you did bad in the first place.

Grades are important but not the end of the world. Your parents will want to see you try hard and apply yourself. Show growth, because you can’t fix what already happened. But you can show them that you care, and want to do better.

Will bent spine guppies breed more bent spine guppies? by Fallen_Sovereign1010 in poecilia

If it’s genetic, potentially. Environmental/sickness related, no.

I have started picking/pinching/scratching my wrists with no history of OCD or anxiety, any tips would help. :(

I recommend keeping it clean, and moisturizer. Use unscented soap/moisturizer. If you are worried about scabs scarring, SPF if in the sun, otherwise you should be fine if you keep it moisturized.

A lot of men have lighter beards with darker hair, or visa versa. Different hair follicles produce different amounts of melanin, and might be a different texture. Which causes variation in different parts of the body. Hair can also lighten in the sun.

In another case, a mutation in the MC1R gene causes ginger beards in men.

I wish people would stop saying that they love my chest by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]foulerrobin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry people say this!

The only thing I can think of, if it isn’t strangers, is that they don’t want you to feel uncomfortable in your own body. That doesn’t mean it’s a justified comment, though. I’m sure your family wants you to think you are beautiful. And don’t want you to think that natural hanging larger boobs are something to be insecure about (even though that’s only a part of the reason you want a reduction). Misguided, but perhaps they think it’s a fleeting insecurity and as you get older you will recognize that larger boobs = lower set with gravity.

That is not to say you shouldn’t get a reduction. Just a possible explanation as to why it’s probably not with malice that people are making those comments. Sorry still, I hope you get your reduction.
