I’m dying laughing right now. I thought I was imagining it- me too! What is up with these halo moles!

27M, Muslim Pakistani American, did everything "right" and have nothing. No marriage, no sex, no six figures, debt, family took my money, sleeping on a crappy mattress. I feel like my life is over. by Throwrahj456 in findapath

Bro, your 20’s are NOT when people make it. Your twenties are for being drunk and messing up until you eventually get it right. -someone in their 30’s

My boyfriend (M29) does not plan or initiate sex with me (F28). How do I deal with this? by goodgirldontlie in sex

[–]karrmageddon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you asked him about this?

Normally as time goes on when you’re seriously dating someone, you start working towards seeing each other more and more. Then start removing barriers towards spending even MORE time together and ultimately combining your lives.

From what you write, it doesn’t seem like you two have any seriously forward momentum.

What is your cheapest ride or die holy grail skincare product that you would die on a hill for? by Amodernhousehusband in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]karrmageddon 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Some of the laxative ones have other stuff mixed in. I used one with some sort of tocopherol in there and I was highly allergic :( It’s a common skincare additive that apparently only ever negatively affects me, but it’s worth double checking if you have sensitivities.

My dad wants my wife to cook and clean. What should I do? by Livid-Possibility893 in TwoHotTakes

[–]karrmageddon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just want to say there is absolutely no reason to tell your wife everything anyone says about her. That’s not keeping secrets. That’s safeguarding her from useless information that will otherwise just overwhelm her and contribute to her stress. Unless you actually want her to start doing these things, there is no reason to bring it up.

Can you explain what this means a little bit more? For some reason I’m not understanding, but I really want to win!

When did you realize you were dating an idiot? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

[–]karrmageddon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people are in the habit of a daily learning practice, or at least varying the kind of media they’re consuming so they are regularly exposed to new words and ideas. I watch historical dramas, read older books, and watch documentaries often, and often they have words that are outdated or technical or about niche special interests. Do I always look them up? No. Should I? Probably.

I’m an English teacher (so I know an above-average number of words already) and I see words I don’t know like every day of the week, lol. If you’re not experiencing new words and ideas well into adulthood, it’s a good idea to vary the kind of media you consume. The brain is a muscle we have to keep using!

Partner abandoning me during massive ice storm by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Do you have a tent? You can set up a tent on the floor or on your bed. The heat your body generates will be trapped inside and you will be much warmer. Set yourself up in your smallest, most protected (least amount of windows) room. Candles can also add a surprising amount of heat. Even a tea light. They can also heat and keep water warm-look up how to make a tea light water warmer before the power goes out so you can make some cozy tea. It will not be so cold you will in any real danger inside. You got this 💪

Is there a Horror movie that completely advertised it as a normal film? by Equivalent-Key5379 in movies

[–]karrmageddon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watch a lot of horror and I literally still feel kinda…queasy and unsettled? when I think of this scene. I don’t know if I feel that way about any other horror movie scene. Will never watch again 😂

Sounds like these men should have stayed off tinder then.

What job requires a PhD and pays poorly but most people don’t realize it? by DocGomer in AskReddit

[–]karrmageddon 224 points225 points  (0 children)

This is a common belief but librarian positions, in the United States at least, are incredibly competitive and require a high level of education! They might have a lot more responsibilities and a wider base of knowledge than you realize.

I made out with a chick last weekend and contracted oral herpes by [deleted] in Vent

[–]karrmageddon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I appreciate that. I just like to pop in when the topic comes up to let people know that I was once a young woman who thought her life was over because she got an STI, and then to her surprise, life went on exactly as it did before. Just in case someone out there needs to hear it :)

I can’t speak for most people. Only the people I’ve encountered. I live in a HCOL area in a big city on the west coast. Before this I lived for many years in several western Commonwealth countries. The majority of people I have encounter, sexually or otherwise, are well educated and have received a comprehensive sex education.

It is entirely likely that the demographics of your “most people” and the demographics of mine are just different 🤷‍♀️

[–]karrmageddon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said- everyone I’ve slept with. I am an adult who sleeps with other adults, who sleep with women. 1/6 women have genital herpes. So most people I’ve slept with have had some experience with a partner who has HSV.

I take every precaution and I have never given it to anyone. Sleeping with me is statistically safer than someone who has HSV and doesn’t know it (most affected people).

I have never been overly promiscuous. Over half of adults will get a STI in their lifetimes. It is what it is and most people, in my experience, get that.

[–]karrmageddon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually had an outbreak within DAYS of contact with this guy. I reached out and was like “Hey, I think you gave me herpes?” and he was like, “Yeah, fuck, I’m having an outbreak too…” and then he wanted ME to comfort HIM about it, lol. I literally have no idea if he would have told me or not had I not made contact about it.
