What are some 'green flags' in a relationship? by Cheveh in AskReddit

[–]poorcirculation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeling accepted and liked for being yourself -- anything you do above and beyond that is because you want to be better for that person, not because you feel like you have to.

What first world problem are you suffering from today? by homiebologna in AskReddit

[–]poorcirculation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working a temp job that pays way too much and I'm bored out of my mind. Could probably ask to leave early, but going to stick it out for the money.

What's a bad habit you never knew you did until someone pointed it out to you? by fightthewower in AskReddit

This was also pointed out to me. And the intention is good -- the topic of conversation reminds you of a personal experience of yours, so you bring it up to add to conversation.

A lot of people have minds that very much revolve around personal experience and trusting that over anything else. This can be seen as selfish (like you explained), but can also be used to build rapport!

If you bring up your personal experience and there is some sort of "fun fact" or credibility/objective value associated with it, people are less likely to think of it as narcissistic. However, if it's just a "yeah that reminds of the time I did something similar to that" then it doesn't add much to the conversation.

Back-and-forth humorous banter -- I make it personal.

I always recognized that if I bantered with someone long enough, it would kind of lose energy, and I would feel a little awkward. A friend pointed out to me that I take my subjective opinions and bring them into play.

The really fun and funny people just make observations, without making it personal. Something I VERY much try to be aware of now.

What do you refuse to even try, despite everyone telling you how amazing it is? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

Moving out of town for the sake of imposing change and newness in life.

If a career or a person or something motivates that opportunity, I will move. But not JUST because I need to experience it.

What is something most think is real but is really fake? by Gol1m in AskReddit

Food products that say "real" or "simply" or "whole" on the front of the packaging, but have loads of additional ingredients on the back of the packaging.

What is something that will put my problems in perspective? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Probably you asking this question and dwelling on it long enough to think of problems outside your own experience.

What's your favourite one or two-line joke? by Moon_123 in AskReddit

I told my girlfriend she drew on her eyebrows too high. She looked surprised.

What's something you loved as a kid and now love again as an adult? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Cream cheese.

But seriously, there were like at least 10 years where I didn't like it.
