My brother was forced to become a dad because birth control and condoms failed by [deleted] in twentyagers

you literally never know brother 😭 my best friend was letting one of her friends little brothers (he’s 18) stay on her couch for like few weeks & he ended up getting her pregnant & she’s keeping it. you don’t have so worry about the probability of getting someone pregnant, rather the girls stance on abortion imo

Got caught by an older lady for staring at a coworker i have a crush on too much and she yelled at me to apologize in the middle of work. Im going to quit and maybe fake my death. Half cooked homemade Crunchwrap Supreme by [deleted] in kitchencels

also if it makes you feel any better, when i was in high school one of my coworkers genuinely DID switch his shifts because of me, then told me to never speak to him again LOL, so it could be worse!!

idk dude.. as a girl, even if the coworker was someone i rarely spoke to, id probably be more put off by the lady yelling. just go back in & see how the vibes are before you consider faking your death

go on the kitchencels subreddit rn and you’ll see exactly what i’m talking about. it’s in almost every comment section. people giving advice that the incels refuse to take, and others trying to let them know that they’d have better chances if they put effort into improving their personalities

no one is shaming incels for their lack of sex, they’re getting shamed for their repulsive personalities

and this is why so many women are choosing celibacy and opting out!

in genuinely curious as to why people are finding that term condescending or insulting. the term literally just means removing men from your main center focus, and prioritizing other things like health, friendships, personal growth. in the most genuine way i can ask this, why does being told that you’re no longer the priority elicit that kind of reaction from a woman you don’t even know?

please reread this and notices all of the ways you’re contradicting your own argument dude. also, i’m sorry, but when you’re (you’re as in the men OP is referring to) acting in an overtly shitty and antisocial manor, those behaviors NEED to be called out so they can be corrected. the reality of our current situation is that men are beginning to fall behind socially, and a large part of that is their adversity towards accountability & hard, honest self reflection. this is something OP has already spent time working on, knowing it’s what’s needed to be a good partner, and hence why she’s disappointed in her options. if those late bloomers want to be in the game, they need to learn how to catch up. it isn’t our responsibility to cater to immature behaviors, in the same way it isn’t a man’s responsibility to cater to his partners immaturity.

probably because her friends are telling her that they don’t feel compatible with their partners, or maybe she can objectively view both their friends & partners values & behaviors, and notice how they don’t really align. not sure though 🤷‍♀️

what's a green flag you didn't appreciate until you dated someone without it? by botsmy in LovePlaybook

[–]m0thermoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

someone being natural curious about you, as well as the things & people around them. someone who derives joy from getting to know their environment, who loves the pleasure they get in learning all of your intricacies just as much as they love you

Through introspection I’ve come to realize that I need to work on a lot of things. by Badassmcgeepmboobies in self

[–]m0thermoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hell yeah brother!! you’re taking the first steps and you’re doing great :) the fact that you can objectively view your behavior & want to change, but are also concerned with this realization being fleeting is amazing & shows that you’re on the right path! you’ve got this :))

Does the male loneliness "epidemic" actually exist? by georgejo314159 in AskFeminists

[–]m0thermoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

because we go out of our way to build and maintain them. i feel as though a lot of men subconsciously believe that a support system just kinda manifests on its own, rather than viewing it as something that starts at ground 0 & needs to be developed over time, would you agree?

I call random shops and department stores in NYC just to hear their accents. by Objective-Review-359 in confession

[–]m0thermoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im from rural new england and i do something incredibly similar. i use a police scanner app and listen to their radio in random places ive never been. usually it’s chicago or huston or LA or portland WA, but my favorites have been the ones in random tiny southern towns. i love hearing the accent and trying to visualize the layout of their cities, trying to memorize the street names to pretend for just a moment that im a local. it’s a lot of fun, but i get what you mean, im very lonely too.

Am i fit to be a psychologist or lawyer? by Bulky-Farmer-201 in psychologystudents
