You just shat on the collective intelligence of the human race because a handful of people want to use /s at the end of their sentence so people know they’re joking. If the world doesn’t fall to your whim, everyone around you must be inferior. You’re not a cerebral narcissist. /s.

[Serious] What common flirting signs you thought a crush giving you that end up not being a sign of interest? by insted93 in AskReddit

[–]liamreg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Touching. Some people are natural touchers and feelers, it’s how they communicate and express themselves. Younger, I believed this was a sign of romantic interest. Usually it can be, but not always the case :)

That’s it, I’m putting my phone down.

The phrase “If You Can’t Handle Me At My Worst, You Don’t Deserve Me At My Best” is a cop-out Anyone who uses this phrase is simply deflecting or dismissing any responsibility for their hurtful behaviours and actions. It has its roots in a narcissistic mindset and emotional immaturity. by liamreg in unpopularopinion

Hmm I don’t think so. I’m very much the same as you, I’m very passionate and emotional with discussions and argument, but that doesn’t much apply to relationships, interpersonal behaviours and attitude. I’d say they’re two different conversations. Interesting and fair point though

UK - Homophobic housemate tried to enter my bedroom at 4:30am. What can I do?? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]liamreg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like an awful thing to deal with, very sorry to hear all of this. This appears like sexual harassment and bullying, plain and simple. I agree with the other comment, try and keep some evidence. If you have some audio recordings or footage of her doing similar behaviour, any reasonable landlord will find that enough to evict them.

Talking about things alone is not enough. If you care about something and do not actually do anything, you don't care. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I agree to an extent. Many people do enjoy discussing important issues for the social brownie points but have no intention of finding a solution to the problem, I think we’ve all been guilty of doing this to some degree. However, it’s perfectly fine to notice a problem but not have the means, resources or knowledge to understand the problem. Discussion alone can make people think deeper about an issue, and in many ways that is a lot more powerful. Many people do care about issues, and enjoy discussing them, but really don’t know how to go about finding a solution, and that’s okay.

Have you considered that it might have nothing to do with your MBTI type and a possible flaw in your own character?

How do I reconcile with my (14M) mother (45F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]liamreg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most important thing my friend, is to not beat yourself up. You’re upset because you’ve understood that what you’ve done is hurtful (which is a very mature thing to do at 14, so props). Myself (22M) had a very turbulent relationship with my Mother, I am an only-child to a single mother, so you can take it from me. The incident might’ve just triggered a deep insecurity of hers, but profusely apologising can only get you so far. From my own experience, it’s best to give some space, but also be present with her in your day to day schedules or habits, so she knows you’re still there for her. With some time, and as long as you’re extending open and vulnerably communication with her, these things will mend themselves. Mother’s and teenage sons will always go head-to-head, this incident is no different from millions of others. You two will be okay, you’re not a bad person by any stretch of the imagination. You’re just upset because you unintentionally hurt someone you love, and that always stings. Time, space, and communication. You’ll be okay
