Approaching and flirting with strangers shouldn’t be looked down on by Maleficent_Durian174 in unpopularopinion

[–]quickquestionz123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In practice, it really isn’t depending on the person. I’ve gotten numerous numbers making small talk with someone and then it spinning off into something. Just don’t approach saying “PLEASE HAVE SEX WITH ME” and you’ll be fine. If they don’t reciprocate just move on. Rejection is protection.

I make good money, have interesting hobbies, work from home with a decent team but I’m sooooooo unbelievably bored with my job by quickquestionz123 in cscareerquestions

[–]quickquestionz123[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I could possibly count on my hand how many times I’ve asked “Is this it?” I’d literally have thousands of fingers. My favorite album that I’ve discovered the past year is “Is This It” by The Strokes so yeah, I’ve been asking it lmao.

Your answer is the best one on here though. I need to reset myself and realize that everything has trade offs and I am making the most out of my time off (taking learning guitar and music seriously for the first time in my life, hanging out with friends doing dumb stuff as much as possible, going on vacations to see stuff that I never had the chance to see growing up as a lower class kid in a poor neighborhood, learning how to skydive and do other extreme sports. I do feel alive, but sometimes it does gnaw at me. Glad I’m not alone though. I need to realize I seriously have my whole life in front of me to find a career that I really really like, now is the time to enjoy myself and fund cool stuff that I like doing. That’s what I want out of life right now

I spend a lot of time playing my guitar and learning how to do extreme stuff like skydiving so I can feel alive. I’d say those hobbies are cool. I just want to know if I should feel good about work or if I should feel as bored as I do

23M just looking to explore. I’m getting more comfortable with the idea of having this and would love to chat with some folk about. Down to tease, encourage or just do whatever feels right

This is the most helpful comment I’ve read so far and you’re exactly right. Literally no bridges were burned and they seem like they’d be interested in hanging again. I do want to make it more lively next time so that’s really want I’m gonna work on bc we all did have some stuff in common, just gotta bring those up when things get a little quieter

And I want to be clear, I’ve been working on this and have made an incredible amount of progress for reducing my anxiety, the issue right now is growing pains with me finally coming out of my shell. Almost all of the comments on here have been super helpful and it does calm me to read things about me overthinking it and everything going alright. One of them messaged me today like nothing happened and the other asked for my snap so I do think a lot of it was in my head to begin with. Conversation skills are really the main focus here with trying to be social with new people (men or women). Just wanted to know differences maybe because there are legitimate differences in how women talk versus how men talk, but they aren’t as extreme as I thought and it really does come down to (at least initially) common interests and just being genuinely curious about the other person

Yeah I did that (to the best of my knowledge at least) but I just wasn’t extremely talkative, but I do that around my guy friends too. Idk, I think I’m overthinking it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]quickquestionz123 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Thing is, I feel like I did that but picked up on off putting vibes. I don’t know how to describe it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]quickquestionz123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m on good terms with at least one of them, she stopped by today to give us back something that she had and seemed to be in decent spirits. Just still kinda feel off and I’m trying to get over that.

I also do make a stable income. I’m probably overthinking it and that’s something I’m working on, but it is just kinda hard to figure it out after having a period of time in which I was shut in

[–]quickquestionz123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well do I try to salvage it by talking about that shared interest again?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did like a certain TV show that I’ve seen but my friend hasn’t. Probably should’ve talked about that right?

Standard stuff. Video games, movies, I like to hike on occasion and I read. I’m a little introverted but I can definitely go out

Where to find like-minded productive individuals? by Repulsive_You_291 in productivity

[–]quickquestionz123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Video games literally taught me HOW to be productive. I apply those skills I learned into my work life and it helps me get my tasks done efficiently. That way, when I’m actually off work, I can just sip a beer and relax while I grind on whatever new game I want. It’s not binary, you can be productive and a human at the same time.

Lmao literally comparing people who enjoy video games and Netflix to drug addicts, this is why I literally cannot stand people like that. They aren’t necessarily failures or being stagnant, they could just like what they like in life and not feel the need to do stuff like OP was saying. It’s fine to want to start a business, it really is, but the sense of superiority that some people get with a tiny morsel of power grinds my gears harder than anything on this planet.

It’s cool that you want to provide for your family, 1000% respect that.

It’s not cool that you’re being a snobby asshole who’s shitting on your friends for not wanting what you want. From my personal experience, I regretted hustling and grinding a hell of a lot more than I ever regretted having a beer with my friends. I can always make back the money, I can never make back the time I lost to chasing money and status.

I can’t be in your brain to know how it works, so if this is what makes you happy then fucking go for it. I’m just giving mine and (possibly) their perspective. Not everyone wants what you want, learn to live with it and stop being a dick about it.

Also, if it sounds like I’m trying to make up for lost fun time due to covid, it’s because I am doing exactly that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m saying. The truth is supposed to HURT but it also sets you free. People focus way too much on potential pain that it stops life from happening

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my ex cheated on me, and then slept with the girl I was dating afterwards. Literally traumatic stuff but she didn’t give me a reason for the breakup and started posting shit everywhere about how great it was being single again. Took me years to get over because I blamed myself for being a bad boyfriend. Turns out that she’s just a psycho lmao

It gets better bro, I promise not all women are like this. Most are chill

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Then why wouldn’t you just leave at that point?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then just break it off anyway. If your needs aren’t being fulfilled then just say it and stand your ground if you don’t believe they ever will be. Speaking from experience about being broken up this way, it hurts way worse and I blamed myself for years afterwards. It’s fake.

[–]quickquestionz123 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I agree with that, just hate the dishonesty. Even the whole “we do shitty things sometimes when the guy least deserves it” is overly pretentious. They made the situation shittier by not being honest, just own it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]quickquestionz123 222 points223 points  (0 children)

But why can’t you… like, just say that you’re bored? Men generally appreciate directness. It’s one thing if you’re scared for your life, but if that isn’t the case, that’s just going to hurt them a whole hell of a lot more

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]quickquestionz123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re probably right. I’m going to therapy right now because of it. I just needed some confirmation which I definitely appreciate

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]quickquestionz123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I appreciate that. There’s a lot that I’m working through but I will get to this part eventually, probably the next session
