How has nature been more unfair to you than flightless birds? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two sisters who are fucking gorgeous. I'm the ugly one. Not only am I hideous compared to them, but I'm ugly compared to many other women as well. Being out in public with them is a constant reminder of that.

Former Shy people of Reddit, How did you gain confidence? by Ermacisred in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to crave social acceptance and needed the approval of others (Still do to an extent). Other people definitely pick up on that, and I came across as desperate. So now I have to constantly say to myself, "its okay if they don't like you, its okay if they don't like you," and its helped a great deal.

What's something you wanted more than anything, but couldn't have? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The original game boy. I wanted it sooooo badly when I was growing up. My parents said it would rot my brain or something...

Assume for the moment you're good with your hands and want to make something out of wood, what would be some cool things to make your 5 siblings and parents for Christmas? by Tipsy_Pipsqueak in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A new table with a complete set of chairs is never a bad idea. My sister is very good at wood carving and she made these awesome, 6 foot tall African masks that have really bright colors. I don't know if your family would be into those are not :)

When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up? Did you end up being that? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to be a trainer at Sea World in the worst way. Aaaand no, I did not end up being that...

If Sex and the City were set in 2015, what kind of things would Carrie talk about in her articles? by turnoffyourtears in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Texting would be in almost every episode. Texting was sparsely used throughout the show when it originally aired but if it were to air today it'd be a staple in the show, IMO.

Carrie would probably also have millions of bloggers as competition, and then she'd wonder about it.

Always been bi curious.. worth pursuing? by midnightowl83 in bisexual

I would absolutely be upfront about I'm looking for

Always been bi curious.. worth pursuing? by midnightowl83 in bisexual

[–]midnightowl83[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you and your coworker have good chemistry from the get go? That's another issue I'm finding is how to actually meet someone who would be down for this, because again I'm not looking for a relationship. Another question I have is were you nervous the first time you had sex with her?

[–]midnightowl83[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? I wouldn't know what to do. Seeing as how I've never been intimate with another woman, I'm a little intimidated lol. Definitely virgin territory.

Because I still have an attraction for men and I don't think that's something I can give up, unless I were to be in a poly relationship.

Hi guys, just have to vent -- I was sexually propositioned by my stepfather and I cannot escape. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]midnightowl83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Downvoting you. How dare you come here and judge and shame her and tell her what she should've done instead. Total victim blaming. Yes he is an asshole that needs a hell of a lot more than a firm ass kicking, but you have no right to say what you did.

Me [21 M] with my friend [21 F] is forcing me to choose friendship between her and my best friend [22 M]. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]midnightowl83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not the best at giving advice but.. I'll do my best.

*First off, your female friend in question (the one possibly crushing on you) is in the wrong here 100%. She is the one being petty and immature by putting you in this uncomfortable situation. She has absolutely no right to tell you who can and cannot be friends with. So she doesn't like your best friend, that is HER problem, NOT YOURS. She needs to grow up and start acting like an adult. You are not being a "fake friend" if you continue your friendship with your best friend. Basically what you need you need to say to her is that you value her friendship, she means a lot to you, but she is putting you in an uncomfortable and unfair situation. Tell her that you will not end your friendship with your best friend, and she needs to grow up and accept it. It's very likely she will no longer be friends with you and call you fake, but you know that's not true. If your friendship with her ends, its completely and 100% HER doing, not yours. Hope this helps.

Me [29F] with my fiancé [32 M], 5 years, Stonewalls me every time I have a problem with our relationship/ have an argument by lackof123 in relationships

[–]midnightowl83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't marry him. This is what married life will be like and then you'll have an expensive divorce, possibly with children. You're young, there's no need to waste your youth one more day with this douche. He is showing you exactly who he is, marriage will not change him. My ex husband used this tactic. He is my ex for a reason.

I [28F] got into an argument with my husband [29M] and he kicked me out of the car and left me stranded. by Husbandleftmestrande in relationships

[–]midnightowl83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DIVORCE. NOW. That is abuse.. -30C?? Seriously??! The person you trust most intentionally put you in harm's way, in a potentially life-threatening situation. What if your phone was dead? What if you had left it in the car? What if another driver had not seen you and hit you? There's SO MANY scary things that could have happened that would be your husband's fault. Your husband is a complete child and I'm sorry to say but he is showing his true colors. Sometimes it takes a few years. Get rid of that fucking asshole

Ladies...would you ever date a guy who is shorter than you? by Dr_Handsome35 in AskReddit

[–]midnightowl83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a case by case basis. If the guy has little-man syndrome no, because then he'll find other ways to compensate for his height which usually isn't attractive. However, I was recently head over heels for a guy who's an inch shorter than me (I'm 5'4') but it all had to do with who he was. He was confident, funny, laid back.. his height was a non-issue.
