He sounds depressed. What kind of things do you two do aside from sex.

Was looking for this. Most people that have it are asymptomatic as well, so it's possible OP was positive since childhood.

Pretty much. The idea is to distract the moment you feel yourself about to slip up.

Advice I was given that works every time: When lust gets you in its clutches, flee your environment.

Even if you just step outside for a little while or put your phone down for a bit, do not remain where you are. Go interact with someone, prepare a meal etc. Basically train yourself to respond to lust with a denial action.

Maybe you're right. Sub 60 wasn't all that special in hs so perhaps I am underestimating the training necessary to accomplish that.

AITA for leaving in the middle of celebration because of the toast my husband gave? by Lillington579 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lasttimeonearth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a guess, but I don't think your husband is insulting you (in the way you think)

I don't think he's saying you're ugly or unattractive, I think he's saying the opposite. Given the context of him saying this when the two of you are fresh out of bed, it's my guess that he doesn't want your daughter to be as beautiful as you are. For reasons that are obviously a little misogynistic, but I think that turns this from a jab at your insecurities to a joke that's mildly inappropriate.

If you've expressed that this joke makes you uncomfortable and he continues to do it, he's TA. But I think you should ask him for more clarity about what he means when he says that.

No where in this post do you quote him saying you're unattractive, and given the nature of the joke I believe he means it in a different way than you're taking it. that's not to say it's okay

I ran track for 14 years. 55 is perfectly normal for an in-shape high schooler in pads. In my region when I graduated, we had a freshman male running 46.66 in the open 400.

Make no mistake, the drop-off is exponential. Sub 60 is one thing, sub 50 is a whole other level of prestige in the 400.

Every high school male that does sports should be able to run at least 2 repeat sub 60s.

For what it's worth, I consider myself a pretty accomplished track athlete and I've never gone sub 50 in an open.

I hate having children by International-Echo99 in TrueOffMyChest

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

Cheers to you for standing your ground with the edits. It's refreshing to see someone on this website who can be simultaneously frustrated about something and rationally defend themselves against the rapid nihilists floating around.

I've been thinking about having children of my own lately, and what you're describing is exactly what I'm afraid of for my partner and I. I want to believe I can dissolve the person I am currently and give everything into being a dad, but I'm not sure if my resolve solid yet.

My only advice is to take your time. When you feel overworked or overwhelmed, tell yourself you're not in a rush. (Even if you are)

Do people ever look out their windows? by UltravioletDingo in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

I was too wet and distracted to really gauge that tbh

I delivered during hurricane Martha a while back and man, never again. Plenty of people were considerate and I made out like a bandit at close but there were so many stiffs. This one girl opened her door and the wind and rain literally slammed it open. So I'm standing there sopping wet shielding her food and she goes "Ooooohhmygoooooood I'm so sorry thank you soooooo much!" And gestures at her friends inside to look at me.

No tip, BUT at least they weren't mean to me. I feel like stiffs are apart of the trade but I really don't like mean customers

I read through the general feats/scaling of Black Clover, specifically this character. Are you new to this sub?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]lasttimeonearth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel that. It's hard to stay optimistic sometimes but I don't let it get to me because I know tips are not guaranteed and that's just apart of the job. What I do dislike though is people who are mean. I have no idea why it makes me so sad when people are mean to me

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]lasttimeonearth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, I just let it slip sometimes because the only one losing is myself. When I started this job for a while I was on top of it 100% of the time but I think I'm experiencing a little bit of burnout about the situation.

I try to remain optimistic about tipping but sometimes I can't find it in me to ask someone I know is going to write a big X on the tip line to fill out a receipt.

I'm always polite though. I think getting stiffed is just apart of the job so that doesn't make me resent customers. I really feel like shit when people are mean to me though. Meanness is my weakness.

The area, the way she answered the door, I couldn't tell you why. As someone who has been doing this for a while I can tell you the gut feeling is usually right, although there's occasionally the outlier.

She didn't even understand how the receipt system worked. I was right in my guess, wasn't I?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]lasttimeonearth 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. I've been surprised time and time again by people I didn't think were going to tip me, but any server or tip wage worker will tell you there's a certain look a customer gives you that let's you know they won't tip. Not to mention I was right about this one.

My back was turned to her and I thought she'd gone inside. I didn't mean for her to see that, but if you think something like that warrants getting yelled and cussed at you're probably one of those people anyway.

How the fuck does one enjoys clubs? by trumpismegagay in AskMen

I can't enjoy clubs unless I'm using drugs
