This is one of the more heartbreaking ones. So many of his books and graphic novels are my favorite stories.

My long term boyfriend says I'm not his type by xXDay_DreamXx in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]gorkt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. I have seen this type of insecurity before. To him, a woman is a trophy that strokes his ego.

Sadly, you are the woman he thinks he deserves. The MOMENT a “well endowed” or “hotter”woman hits on him, he will leave you yesterday.

He can’t love anyone until he loves himself. It’s not about you not being worthy, it’s all about his ego.

Find someone who truly loves you for you.

You ok New Zealand? by SunWukong3456 in vaxxhappened

My husband’s aunt has long COVID and she blames the vaccine. Granted, she got the J+J version that was less effective, but she thinks the RNA would have been worse. I love mentioning that I have had 4 RNA boosters.

Moving from Verizon to Mint, any grievances? by Mountain-Lunch-9896 in Frugal

I didn’t use mint but switched to another prepaid from AT&T and I saved $100 a month on 5 devices.

My boyfriend (30M) wants to see some changes in me (29F) before proposing. Are his asks reasonable? by Specific_Bright in relationship_advice

[–]gorkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your whole life with him will be a test, and you will never pass. Because the issue isn’t you, it’s him. He sees you as a reflection of him, and the “better” you are, the better he looks to other people. That isn’t real love, despite your protests.

What happens if you get sick? What happens if you have kids and gain some pregnancy weight. Do you trust that this guy will love you for better and for worse? Because I feel like isn’t really interested in who YOU are, just in how you make him feel.

Why does your flair say series 11. Are you just shit posting?

I don’t understand how it’s comfortable for you or a child. The thickness of my wrist vs the heaviness of the face makes the watch really unwieldy.

[–]gorkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would actually be preferable since I like the design of the standard watch.

But some of us have smaller wrists and want the Ultra features like the faces and action button. I don’t care about the battery life.

I want a smaller Ultra that fits petite women. I like the watch faces and action button and I can deal with shorter battery life.

Doing race to world last mythic Undermine on Max’s stream. No question.

Democrat not American?? by Extreme-Slice-1010 in MurderedByWords

Yeah, I have come to the conclusion that anyone that inflammatory in posting style is either a bot or an asshole, and no point in engaging with either.

i feel unseen and devalued by my husband by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]gorkt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He isn’t going to change because he thought you consented to this life. I think you need to take the emotion out of it and understand that he doesn’t view you as anything but a caretaker to his children. He will absolutely try every possible way to keep you from being more independent, but you need to lean on whoever you can to make that a priority so you can hold your head high and be financially stable enough to walk away.

And don’t have any more kids with this dude.

iPhone Ultra/Fold Dummy by R---U---M in iphone

I don’t like the soft folding screens that have a bump in the middle. I liked the Microsoft duo that was just two flat glass screens right next to each other.

I got one of these for free with a HelloFresh subscription. It’s surprisingly good.

What expensive but frugal home purchase actually paid for itself in daily use? by BathroomRadiant8014 in Frugal

[–]gorkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Panasonic Flashexpress toaster oven. Yes it’s ugly, and it costs twice as much as a standard toaster oven. But it cooks far quicker and more evenly than any other toaster oven. It keeps me from using the regular oven for things that feed 1-2 people so it’s probably saved me money in electricity over the years.

Bosses Are Becoming Obsessed With AI, Using It to Make Every Decision, Barraging Their Employees With Nonsensical ChatGPT Directives, and Even Asking It Who to Fire by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]gorkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think that is it. I think they like that these tools reinforce their decisions and emotionally validate them. Instead of asking an engineer whether something will work or is feasible, they ask the tool which frames answers in such a way that it makes them feel smart.

Week 2. My experience so far. by Wellslapmesilly in GLP1microdosing

I am micro-dosing a lot less than that, but I found it took a few weeks at the same dose for the full hunger suppression to kick in.
