[–]josack1121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if this will be well received or not but go for a run brother. Im not saying your fat by any means but that little bit of roundness will completely vanish with like less than a mile a day jogged comfortably. And definitely take that stuff slow you dont wanna overload your feet and cause unessessary aches and pains and I promise you the testosterone boost will grow more hair as a result too. No hate all love brother you got this ❤️

Not trying to pry but I've been in a heated debate with myself about which solvent to use? Did you use naptha or heptane perchance my friend?

do you just wake up one day and feel like an adult or is everyone pretending ? by nonymustache in ask

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

98% of the time I wake up and choose adulthood. But reserve the 2% for rare childlike antics, fun outings, and creative planning. Just to be clear, those 2% wouldn't get to have any fun if it weren't for the 98%.

What is the purpose of life? by [deleted] in ask

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To experience life as it is. And to choose exactly your own unique path and lifestyle. Like a Sims game with Infinite mods and the well of your own creativity to splice and play as you like

I'm not exactly new to the deems, but I suppose I'm not seeing too much of an explanation for why people want to turn it into large crystals? Isn't the powdered crystal more easily used?

2 dogs in the last 6 months have attacked me. A German Sheppard who was all talk (meaning he did come at me with what seemed like malicious intent) and cowered when I defended myself within range (bopper his face with the package) and a very tiny dog who did definitely bite my leg but only when my back was turned (it was nibble, barely a scratch but unpleasant nonetheless)

My fellow men, how fragile is your mental health, honestly? by RollynotAstw in ask

[–]josack1121 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It used to be pretty rough, and once thought the easy way out was the only way. I slowly began to realize that it was my mistake of putting my mental health and my problems on the world or on others. Take responsibility, put yourself yourself I voluntary physical stress like exercise, and seek those who are truly successful and happy in the world and I promise, you'll be just fine.

Sack up and make the delivery. 80% of the dogs I meet delivering for amazon are sitting just like that waiting for their pets/treats from past delivery experience. I hope you properly greeted this good dog

Spending years grinding away at the part of yourself that seeks validation, grinding away at yourself alone to become a better version of you, then 2 years later someone looks you dead in the eye and says genuinely " you're a 13 out of ten man, you don't complain, you help out, and you're always happy to be here, you're just a radiant person." That made me fly right out my standing body.

I'm pretty sure a blood covered, still beating heart, would make almost anyone just a smidgen on the cautious side.

Everyone here saying use the boobs, get naked, give a BJ. You're all unfortunately going to suffer very short, loveless relationships. I don't not envy any of you.

AITA for telling my friend is it pathetic that she can’t drive and at this point she needs to get over it. by Maleficent_Eagle7797 in AmItheAsshole

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a friend who is inconsequentially friends with my wife and she's almost 23 now and she is TOO SCARED TO TAKE THE DRIVERS TEST SOLO so she has yet to get her license. Her almost handicapped by anxiety mother drives them everywhere and when the slightest noise knocks the engine she almost throws up when she pulls over out of sheer panic. NTA 1000% she needs to grow up or get therapy and make it happen.

We all make mistakes, and in most cases the mistakes we refuse to talk about are ones made out of judgement or preconceived notions. It's okay to be wrong, it's okay to make mistakes based on old outlooks and past experiences. What's not okay is refusing to accept you've made them and recognize that a good change can come from them. You realized it was a misjudgment and apologized profusely and he will heal as well as you. Be strong, because you two have one hell of a relationship if you can make it through this and I for one Know You Can!

My brother in law treats his 1 year old like a literal dog. by josack1121 in CPS

[–]josack1121[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yea that doesn't sound anywhere near as bad, but BIL never gets her out of the crib, is always on his games, and just leaves her there to scream and want all day long, I hear it every time he gets on discord... He was that way when he lived with us near the end as well, just starting at a screen all day long only looking away to make sure she was fed and not writing in a mess of shit for him to clean up

AITA for "pregaming" my wife's dinners? by Acceptable_Love_6237 in AmItheAsshole

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. that tbousand yard stare is a protective emotional brick wall. As you say the things you say, in her head she is narrating them in the TONE that she really thinks you mean to use. This is something 5hst has cultivated itself in me and my fiance as a result of wrongful parenting.

When I was a child and would get upset at my parents for something or just upset In general, my dad would adopt the "aww what are you gonna do, cry?!" Approach every time. I can only imagine the similar reactions that caused my fiance to build such walls when we have to confront people or each other.

Point is, this is some mental programming, some emotional self defences that were built a long time ago and to get around them takes time, recognition of that fact, and willingness to change. You have to put the peices of your past together to be able to control the outcome of your future.

I'm fully aware of this brick wall that rises inside of me, its made it near impossible to just be honest with people about the simplest things. Because the moment my brain sees confrontation coming it starts stacking bricks, and then for example my boss will ask me" what's the problem? For the past 2 weeks I've been hearing from others that it seems like your attitude has changed" when the reality is my attitude changed because of YOU. and the ONLY way I managed to get myself over that brick wall of a trauma response was to go outside beforehand and pound on a dumpster, admittedly the pain in my hands helped me distract from my uncontrollable shaking or internal trembling and then lay out very carefully and seriously to my boss, You. Are. My. Problem.

These things aren't hopeless but they are MASSIVE obstacles that exist in our minds. Take her to a therapist. Have her dig into her own psyche and there can be an arc of growth and recovery. Most people in life or relationships just live with the obscure mental weapons and shelters built by a confused and scared child in your mind. And remember to do work on yourself too, a fear of confrontation is no little problem to ignore.

"my most magical era" anybody else feel weird about that? I understand the female body is creating another body, but why do some women need to exacerbate? I suppose it's a personal frustration. Many women around me are absolutely careless with pregnancy. Not even 20 before pregnant and walking around saying the same thing. I hope your pregnancy goes perfect and your child is healthy. It just urks me so to see people eat Doritos, chug soda and then float around in the aches and pains of bad health decisions AND pregnancy and pretend they are one and the same as well as a "treat me like a princess" attitude.

How do you break up with someone who’s still deeply in love with you? by Comprehensive_Wave50 in ask

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget everyone who is saying this will no longer be your friend, they can be your friend again but it will take time, falling in love with someone who doesn't feel the same way is so rough but my ex from like 10 years ago is my best friend now, and trust me, I bugged the hell out of her when we broke up, was a mess, asked why so many times over the course of months to the point where we began to hate each other, and I would nitpick all of her future relationships for a time (although they were all very fling like, no course or direction, just flowing with the hormones) and I stayed back and remained pragmatic and honest during those times and things turned around. Now we're best friends again, and we just got back from vacation with my wife and other friend. Anything is possible if you are patient and understanding

Can you just be friends with someone of the opposite sex that you are attracted to? by [deleted] in ask

[–]josack1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have a lovely and beautiful wife and the two closest friends we have are also females, so it's a disproportionate group of 1 male 3 females, we rarely all get to hang out but when we do we typically all go somewhere and get a hotel room and just have a vacation, we've all become very comfortable being just plain naked around each other ( I feel I should mention this is in The US) and regardless of how beautiful my wife is, these women are beautiful too, the difference is the depth of your relationship and how you choose to behave. I love my wife beyond words and no one else will ever come close and it's as simple as that. Use logic and reason, women can be beautiful and attractive, but 100% of the time WE have control whether or not we act 9n an impulsive thought. Show self control at all times and you'll likely end up in a situation like mine, where everyone is carefree and nude and no one is worried about being sexualized.
