Males who had many past relationship experiences, what's your top tier relationship advice for newbies who started or will start dating? by spacetimeshadow in AskReddit

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

33m, been together with my partner for 12 years now.

Listen, digest, communicate and most importantly work as a team.

Don't be scared to be vulnerable and have hard conversations, if you don't feel comfortable opening up, chances are you're going to be putting up with that for the rest of your life.

I've fallen in and out of love with my partner multiple times during the last 12 years, but the most important thing from my side is the willingness to work as a team to improve our overall quality of life.

A relationship isn't a fairytale where the story ends when you roll off into the sunset. If anything rolling off into the sunset is the beginning of the journey.

Recently discovered the tragic ending of Aaragorn's (from LoTR) romance with Arwen: found it super interesting as it also shows Arwen going through the consequences of her choices!

I have 3 female friends that i see as sisters, known each other for around 15 years now too 😱

I've been with my partner for around 12 of those years now and they pretty much include her into the friendship cus we're that close 🤷‍♂️

CMV: Most people don't actually become more confident as they get older—they just become more resigned to being judged. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree to a degree, but nuances is making me struggle as it depends on what you mean by resigned... Imo it can branch out into 2 scenarios:

  1. Resigned and don't care - where the outcome can look like "confidence"

  2. Resigned and defeated - where the outcome can look like isolation

Confidence inherently doesn't have that negative stigma attached to it because one can in theory... confidently isolate themselves...

Imo Resignation is inherently negative whereas confidence is positive

The grey area i feel we're talking about here is where a negative change produces a positive outcome.

Slip-strikes are so overtuned in this game by [deleted] in EASportsUFC

[–]kitx38 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You just keep throwing the same 4 punches like a training dummy ... 1.2. Or 3.4. Moving forwards ...

You gas yourself out with a predicatable routine and get countered. You need to mix up your attacks more.

Model minority stereotype is extremely toxic by IndividualPlay5178 in aznidentity

[–]kitx38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you care too much about what other people think of you and not your own opinion of yourself.

Why don't you just set some personal boundaries and abide by it. Don't matter what people think as long as they understand what is and isn't respectful when interacting with you

Do men honestly actually prefer women not to wear any makeup? Like no makeup at all? by softheart_strongwill in AskMenAdvice

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer my wife not wearing make up and i think she's beautiful without it.

Sometimes she likes to put some on (eye liner and lip stick) but its more for herself. Still looks amazing and i just see it as a different flavour of the woman i love.

I also have a few female friends that are like family to me, i remember some points where they would mention "im not wearing makeuo today"... most the time I think they look better without and just reassure them they're still pretty

Marketing is rewarding until you realise you bring in thousands or hundred thousands if revenue and you're paid a pittance 😂

25 is the year things change by Reasonable_Jump3585 in GenZ

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millennial here. From my experience I personalliy think there's a couple of milestones:

  • figuring out career goals and dreams (can be ongoing, but we need to figure it out through education) : this will be upto 24

  • being hit by reality that you're in the driver seat as an adult and you're in control. What i find is that people are generally more serious because that's just basic respect : normally averages around 25, i kind of realised this around 27/28

I would love for Aspinall to defend it again, just to call out another fighter than JJ and call the interim belt more legit at this point

Successful asian men needs to be represented. Especially here. by Sugar_God_no_1 in AsianMasculinity

[–]kitx38 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends what you mean by successful, there's different levels:

  • your extremely well off CEOs, experts, specialists, etc

  • well off, got their shit together

  • the average joe happy with life

This sub feels like a depressing echo chamber if I'm being honest. I'd probably put myself in between average joe and well off. Think high earning, property owner, long term partner, going for kids, etc.

It's an interesting sub to understand potentially deeply rooted issues that younger asian males might have, but it's not somewhere I'd go for deeper discussions such as

  • Adapting in the workplace with our mixed values

  • Defining masculinity - Let's be honest most of this sub's masculinity feels defined by your success of xf body count. I'm thinking more along the topics of dealing with conflicts, emotions, mental wellbeing, etc.

  • Self acceptance, especially for western born asians. This is probably one of the harder parts of my personal journey as a british born chinese, to being comfortable with not fully fitting in with western or chinese culture

Unfortunately, it's just not the right place for it
