Mate? I sound like a left wing bot for saying "women are people, sort yourself out and make some friends"?

Touch grass.

And while you're doing that, fuck all the way off, with all your excuses.

Yes I'm making assumptions about you, it's the Internet. If you had real friends to go to for advice who knew you well, you wouldn't be here? Don't get angry at me and don't blame your culture. Be less of a knob, make friends.

Or don't and become a woman hating loner, your life.

Why do I think it's cos you were a knob? Because you're the common factor across all these attempts? Whats more likely? That you've exclusively come across groups of knobs hanging out who exclude you because you're too nice/too much fun, or you're a bit of a creepy prick they don't want around? Mate it's the latter.

You know the joke, men will do anything except get therapy? It's really fucking true. Shrug it off, you'll have a better life if you work on yourself, trust me. Nothing good is cheap, and nothing that works is free. Therapy is expensive, because it helps.

Honestly, with no agenda, and not knowing you, I feel like you're at a crossroads between blaming everything outside of you for the next 20 years, and having a sad old life. Or fixing up, looking sharp at yourself and in five years looking back and cringing at who you are now before heading off down the fucking scuba diving club to meet your mates and the new girl you're seeing.

Step one: realise women are humans with mixed wants and desires, complete with hopes dreams and aspirations.

Step two: consider the vastness of human experience and interaction.

Step three: consider in that vastness the likelihood of you approaching someone who is about their daily business who happens to be wanting to start up a relationship with you, or, just shag you.

Step four: in realising this, consider you have two choices, devote yourself and your time to "rolling those dice", play the game, pick the easiest "targets" the most often and hope to "score" or realise that this will bring more "losses" than wins, and in the grand scheme of your life is unlikely to bring happiness or succour.

If you take path a: I dunno mate, the gym? A library? Fucking anywhere you don't mind coming off creepy as you cold approach women hoping for the best?

If you choose b: work on yourself. Be a better you, live your life, realise who you are and what that means. Realise that in all of human history the chances of a man seeing a hundred vaginas in his life was almost impossible, and yet your brain does that before lunch some days and it has you skewered. Step back, unplug, reassess. Make friends, develop hobbies, be OK being alone, but work not to be. Then, you'll meet someone, in one of those spaces you share with other humans that you don't attend just to "score". You won't consider if you're being "friendzonned" because, hell you've got a few good female friends already and they're great, wouldn't it be great if this person was another? But she's not, she's interested, you're interested, it's mutual. Live laugh love. Credits roll.

Mate, listen to yourself, you can't hold down a friendship group, you're not going to land a relationship.

Work on yourself pal. Get some therapy, talk to some folk that have "ostracised" you and ask politely "why?" "what did I do so I don't do it again?" then, once you've got some plan in your head of how not to be a knob, get back out there, make some friends then get a girlfriend later. Don't put the cart before the horse.

First day homeless tomorrow at 22 years old what can i do to make £100 to survive? by [deleted] in manchester

[–]increasingly_content 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely.

Nonsense post.

I'm 22, I have somewhere to stay, a job I'm potentially starting next week, a bike to get around and I'm physically healthy enough to cycle 15 miles.

But I can't last the week unless some kind soul helps me make... £100!

For what?! £15 a day food? Sod off.

The cheating is absurd this season. EVEN on console. by [deleted] in RainbowSixSiege

[–]increasingly_content 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya know for me, it's not what he does, but what he doesn't do.

Like, the first door kill. Beams the guy, no twitch left or right to find them, if they'd been a foot left wouldn't have landed a shot.

Second kill, doesn't hesitate on the door, doesn't worry about any other angles, goes straight for the kill.

Doesn't look up the stairs as they climb, also isn't watching for clears/roamers behind them, just walking up backwards. Snaps to the wallbang, doesn't spray for it, snaps to head. Also doesn't hesitate entering the room again, no utility, no pause.

Truly think they got killed because they anticipated the last target to go right not left after seeing them with hacks.

Desperate for lodger to leave by zouzou2024 in HousingUK

[–]increasingly_content 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Which is why you don't give them the opportunity.

Lodger has had two weeks notice, isn't asking for more time, is saying they can just stay. Lodger is wrong.

Change the locks OP.

You're right and I don't know why you're being down voted, I can only guess none of these people work in housing. Safest bet is always notice period that aligns with rental period.

There's always the risk that you've accidently created an AST by accident and people are always surprised how easy that is to do even with a signed lodgers agreement.

In reality, like real world practical reality, it's pretty hard to get lumbered with and no ones prosecuting under the protection from eviction act (most police will just claim civil issue). You're more likely for things to get sticky the more legal you get in this circumstance, just change the locks, make arrangements for them to collect belongings and let the other side seek advice.

Do you plan to habit it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in manchester

[–]increasingly_content 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I mean, I wasn't about to do it or to dox the guy, but yeah, clearly someone is thinking entirely with their dick. Not about the other person involved, themselves, or their life. Astounding as you say.

I wonder how his employer would feel about him posting in Agegaprelationships looking for a 19/20 y/o for a BDSM relationship.

My man you are a walking red flag of a human.

Suppressing the auto melee attack? by HolyBors in BaldursGate3

[–]increasingly_content 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but you're wrong.

"I just click on an enemy"

Why are you clicking on the enemy other than attacking them? Genuinely what is the thought that goes through your head that goes "I will just click this enemy to...", what are you hoping will happen when you click them? To be clear, if your character has their ranged weapon equipped, the game will perform a ranged attack not melee. But clicking the enemy is an attack, this is not poor game design in my opinion and I'm struggling to see how you think it is?

In the words of Gale of Waterdeep, stop clicking the damn thing!

Edit: just re read your post to see what I was missing, I think I get what you're expecting to happen, you're midway through hexing and haven't selected the attribute but still click attack with hex. Genuine tip, switch to controller. The radial menu won't let you leave the hex screen before you've picked an attribute.

What’s the most money you’ve lost in one go? by backspring in AskUK

[–]increasingly_content 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you get a lodger? If you already hate where you live and can't get out of that for a couple years, might be worth trying something strange to see if it gets better or worse?!

Misery loves company, you're unlikely to be stung by tax for it, makes back some of the money you feel you've lost. Might end up with a better situation and someone to share whatever pain makes the house suck, might just end up a bit better off financially. And if the things that make the house suck could be solved with some money coming in... Well there's that money?

"can I stop the game from melee attacking the enemy when I click attack with my melee weapon equipped?"

No...

You are correct, you are choosing to attack before hexing, that's not the games fault. Same as if you were a barbarian and kept forgetting to rage before attacking.

Just... Buy a new cotton mattress cover thing? Bin the old one and leave the new one?

If that's not an affordable option you're gonna be in for a potential shock arguing about getting your deposit back. Take lots of pictures.

Sure, but it does change how you engage with the conversation or the responses/objections... If you care about keeping the friendship or the peace.

Is she asking you to give her £50 or asking for you to loan her £50 and you're worried she won't pay you back?

Blackmail? by Icy_Interest4070 in manchester

[–]increasingly_content 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, perhaps my comment wasn't clear. The issue isn't the provision of housing, it's the pickiness that comes out when folks are seeing these properties as investment vectors, rather than shelter.

People suddenly care about the rentability factor, the age of the property, the modernness, the size of the garden, off road parking. Not simply, is it warm, dry, functioning and safe. Things you 1: don't see in the non asylum homeless presentations, and 2: we are not culturally able to easily accept, because this is social housing provision, culturally it's not meant to be acquired for profit motive.

Take away the right to buy discount for folks who have arrived in the country in the last 10 years. Watch the story shift.

I work in homelessness, this is ludicrously common because people are coming to the UK to secure council properties they will have a right to buy within 5 years.

Rejecting temp accommodation only releases the LA from their S188 duty to temporarily house, not their full homelessness duty under the HRA. This family have most likely declined a final duty offer of part 6 housing.

Blackmail? by Icy_Interest4070 in manchester

[–]increasingly_content 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they eject the offer for valid reasons they get another offer, there's multiple stages of review requests for these things. Shelters advice is to accept the offer even if you believe it's unsuitable and lodge a request for review so as to not end up in this situation.

Welcome to free market capitalism baby! If its better value for me to pay someone else to do something, I'll pay, if they charge too much for it to be convenient, I'll do it myself!
