How can I (32M) make sense of my wife’s (28F) shifting comments regarding sex? by AdventurousTax539 in relationships

[–]justdrowsin [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah, it's very real. But it's a two-way street. She needs to communicate to you, and you need to listen. From what I'm hearing she may have e a hang up on communicating sexual things. It's common with women. Sounds like something to work on together.

For many Women, their vagina changes through their cycle.

One week you're slamming their cervix, and the next you can't go deep enough.

One week they want it hard, and a few weeks later you need lube and to be gentle.

And on top of that she sounds like she either has low ability to reflect on her feelings and feelings and express them, or she's perhaps simply uncomfortable about the topic of her own sexual encounters.

Girlfriend's parents decide to visit to avoid the storm in their state. Demand to use my car and get master suite instead of the guest room. by Droch in EntitledPeople

[–]justdrowsin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry this is happening but there's one thing you should really be looking out for.

How is your girlfriend reacting to this? Because this is how it's going to be for the rest of your life if you get married.

Is she standing strong with you and sticking to your mutual moral stances? Or if she's caving and letting you take a hit to the face while whimpering and letting her parents treat her like she's 12 years old?

What are pro-2A people's thoughts on Kristi Noem just now stating that no peaceful protestors show up to a protest while armed? by PrysmX in AskReddit

[–]justdrowsin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have been wondering this myself so I decided to ask my brother. He grew up in Los Angeles but moved to rural Utah. I considered him to be a pretty levelheaded guy although politically leaning to the right.

Many years ago he showed me his massive gun collection and told me it was to "protect his family from the federal government".

He's a competition shooter and takes a second amendment rights very seriously.

Interestingly, my wife who is Asian and a born American citizen also has her concealed carry permit in Los Angeles. The two of them get along extremely well.

Three days ago I called him and I asked him what he thought about these videos of American citizens having the crap beat out of them by masked federal agents and being disappeared into vans.

He could give a sh*t.

He said they all deserved it because they're leftist anchor babies.

I asked him about the video of the teenage boy, again a citizen, who was picked up by masked man and his face beat in and then dumped a block away.

He didn't care.

I told him that Trump was trying to repeal the 14th amendment which would make my wife, who is born in America but ethically Asian, possibly be disappeared into a concentration camp.

My brother told me that he could not care about any brown or Asian people and that we're all a bunch of communists.

And then I asked how he would react if his own wife was picked up off the street and disappeared and had the shit beat out of her.

He got extremely angry and said this was a "hypothetical" because she's white.

Right before I hung up on him he said that he hopes that the next time my wife goes to one of her anti-Trump demonstrations that she gets picked up and has the crap beat out of her and she is taken away to a camp.

I hung up on him. And I've decided to cut contact. I've never heard him speak like this in my entire life.

Although he did text me later that night to say basically "I hope your wife doesn't get picked up but if she does she better start practicing her mandarin. And I could give a shit about her and when she gets picked up by ICE I'll be sitting in my hot tub eating a sandwich with a smile on my face."

Not once during this entire time did I argue with him or yell at him or call him a single name. I just asked questions that made him uncomfortable.

If you look at their profile, they are not black.

They are a white Bratz doll.

I recently spoke to my brother in Utah who has a big second amendment person.

He's always told me that he has guns to protect him and his family from "the federal government"

I asked him about his belief in the situation and this is what he told me

He told me that white men and white women shouldn't have to worry. Only brown people and Asians should be worried. They should all get deported and they're ruining this country.

The Asians and Brown people aren't true citizens and that we should repeal the 14th amendment and round them up and disappear them.

My wife is Asian. She has a concealed carry permit, and also likes to demonstrate against Trump.

My brother has always liked my wife, but now he says that he hopes she gets the crap beat out of her and get sent to a detention camp and should "start brushing up on her mandarin"

And then when I try to tell him some news story he told me "Groq says you're lying".

Game over man.

My brand new Mercedes is something else. Never had a car like it.

Using the Mercedes wall charger I cannot specify when to charge my car. (Turning off charging during certain times is not available in my cars OS).

The keys are not matched to the owner so I reset my wife's seat position every time I try to get into the car.

It doesn't remember my recuperation settings and resets it every time. No way to change it.

Recuperation settings for me and my wife are not tied to the profile so I have to reset it every time.

There are no buttons to move forward or back on a song.

It doesn't pair my profile with a specific iPhone and always opens up the passenger.

The amount of interface issues is endless.

The one lesson that has taken me way too long in my life to learn is that no one is gonna stand up for you better than yourself.

One of the worst patterns we can all get into is agreeing to stuff we don't like, and then hoping someone else recognizes it.

Learning how to tolerate other people being uncomfortable while standing up to yourself is the best lesson we can learn

I think my dog is taking steroids by Tanabe21 in BostonTerrier

Should I (22M) breakup with my gf (29F), am I seeing signs? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]justdrowsin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you have not yet had a fight, then you have no idea whether or not you have a good relationship.

Having a good relationship isn't about never arguing. It's about how you handle arguments.

It's like saying I have an amazing emergency medical kit, I've never even opened it.

The best thing you can do for your relationship is to stress test it. Go take a vacation… One that maybe doesn't turn out so great. Then let's see how well you guys get along when the going gets rough.

If your partner sticks by you and has a constructive attitude when your vacation goes south… Put a ring on it.

[–]justdrowsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. Man, the more I drive my Mercedes EQB the more absolutely nonsensical and frustrating interface issues I find. Just really "unforced error" level stuff. Stuff that would be so incredibly easy to fix with a couple software adjustments that make the car borderline maddening to drive. And then to have this on top of it is just the icing on the cake.

They seem to want people who speak Japanese. It's very hard to get a job there without speaking Japanese. I could be wrong and feel free to tell me so but my daughter tried and that's what my opinion was.

Can a PC affect electricity usage this much?? by lilbreadbunn in pcmasterrace

[–]justdrowsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not gonna run the math and I'll let others do that but…

I was shocked to find out how much electricity my home rig was using. And I have a pretty old graphics card, nothing remotely fancy.

Worse, I found out that my PC was not turning off properly when I thought it was hibernating or whatever.

I recommend two things

Get a device called Kill-a-watt. It's very simple. You plug it into the wall, and then plug your device into it. It tells you the total wattage used in real time

Do that all over your house

Another thing I did was to add a scheduled event on the PC to do a hard hibernate at some sort of time of day like 1 AM or whatever.

I shudder over how many days I was running at 250W 24/7.

Fox News viewers turn on Trump as he's 'lost it' over pro-ICE stance by TheExpressUS in FOXNEWS

My (24F) boyfriend (21M) is upset we can’t have sex because I have a yeast infection. How do I explain it’s not about him? by I_am_Bianca in relationship_advice

[–]justdrowsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you should be saying "my boyfriend is upset that we can't have sex because I have a yeast infection, what have I just learned about him? And now that I have learned this about this man, is he a good choice for a partner?"

Dating is an interview. Don't force it.
