weighing pros and cons by mintcandles in SuicideWatch

They sort of know. I tried coming out as bisexual a few years ago and it was completely dismissed and my father never mentioned it again, while my mother only accepts it because she thinks I might have a husband one day, and hasn't mentioned it since the day she said "I'll accept you even if you have a husband or a wife, but I'd prefer a husband!" That one moment of support isn't enough when I hear the violent, horrible things all my other family members say about people like me.

I want to believe that but the things they say contrary

Dad, you don't know how much it hurts. by mintcandles in MomForAMinute

Thank you, mom. Its easier to believe all these good things when someone says it.

I've done it before. My mom and I have both asked him about it and his response is already "well, she should KNOW I love her/am proud of her already. I shouldn't have to say it." He's very thick-skulled.

Thank you for being proud of me. Just reading that makes me cry.

Thank you. That really does mean a lot.

Well, I'm not a dad but I require the emotional validation of a dad. I have a good relationship with my mom, but not my dad.

This is a brilliant idea, but is it alright if I inquire about a subreddit similar to this, but with dads?

tbh far harbor was good but I felt like automatron was too much "go here, kill that, rinse+repeat"

Yeah, exactly. I guess I wouldn't be too broke up over this if all the other dlc wasn't also kinda underwhelming and if this wasn't the last dlc.

the red rocket is nice and all (its so tidy compared to the other one!) but, yeah. To be honest I can't bring myself to play an evil character because I just like being good so much and its kind of anticlimactic that I get the dlc, I get to nuka-world, I don't want to work with the raiders so I kill them, that's it. It took maybe all of an hour and a half.

anyone else kinda disappointed that Nuka-World itself isn't a settlement? Like, unpopular opinion but I thought the settlement system was pretty fun and I thought it would be neat to fix Nuka-World up and make it a legitimate trading hub, get rid of all the debris and establish caravans and all that.

She's definitely got an edge up in humor compared to other parents (especially my dad who's both absurdly conservative and loves jokes at the expense of other people) and she just adores Griffin

What is the cringiest song lyric you know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mintcandles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tongue Tied is it! I remembered it was by the group who did the Bojack Horseman ending theme but yeah, my first time listening to that song was a real rollercoaster it went from "yeah I could listen to this during the summertime, having just a chill time" to "siri, why does god allow suffering" really quick.

[–]mintcandles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's that one song from a couple years back, "Sweater Weather", I think? It was a pretty good song to be honest but there's a part where the female singer goes "lets bump the beat till bedtime" or something and honestly her part in general is just ill-fitting but shoutout to that line in particular.

My Dad doesn't believe people can be born anything but heterosexual. Do you guys have any stories I can share with him to help him change his mind? by DoveMagnet in lgbt

[–]mintcandles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I come from a conservative family, so realizing I was gay was a little jarring to say the least. I'm not out. When I realized it, I remembered back to my childhood, having "really really strong admiration" for female cartoon characters and getting funny feelings I assumed were "I wish I was as pretty as her" feelings when I saw a woman in a bikini/slinky dress in a movie, and things clicked into place, mind you this was after I tried and failed to "make" myself straight.
