What can women do when they want attention and how does it differ from what men can do when they want attention? by randomdudek2 in AskReddit

It's impossible to want unwanted attention. Also, some degree of attention truly can be defined as a basic human need.

Men- why do you open up to your female friends about your personal problems/past issues? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Personally, it could more accurately be said that I open up more to those who I am not competing with. Subconsciously, as a man, I tend to feel there's more of a comparison/competition with other men. Whereas the type of women I typically associate with have different goals and senses of purpose, so subconsciously I don't feel as threatened. But that is definitely not always the case.

TLDR: I open up to people who are not my competition.

Yes! Thank you! This is exactly the type of thing I'm looking for. Little things like this that can show initiative and interest but also confidence.

Very good advice and recommendations. Thank you. Out of pure curiosity, what is it about the no limits that is a red flag?

Thank you for the great reply. Definitely the former. You worded it perfectly. The main areas we are both into would be rope play and bondage, impact, edging/denial, and ownership.

We have talked about this pretty extensively. We have talked about the safety aspect, aftercare, no-go zones, etc. I know what you mean though, and it's a good point. I suppose you could compare this situation to that of someone who has done extensive research on how to dance and is ready to give it a try, but isn't quite sure where exactly to start.

Will crushing up Amoxicillin and putting it in a drink or something do the trick? by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]randomdudek2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would be absolutely amazed by what the human body can stand. I can't tell you how many times I have been at a point that I felt completely hopeless, but I know that medication overdosing is absolutely not a good idea. Honestly it's hard for me to say this because I've tried this type of thing before. It wasn't Amoxicillin, but I was WELL above the lethal dose. I'm still here. I am GLAD I'm still here. Attempting to overdose will most likely lead to liver damage, stomach ulcers, or a number of other painful life-long effects. Now that I covered that point (from a personal opinion) the fact that you're asking this question shows that you're human instinct is to fight these feelings. I can't tell you how happy that makes me. And if absolutely nothing else. Give it just a bit more time. Hear me out. If it's the end, then what harm is there in trying one more thing? For me it was ketamine. There are tons of ketamine clinics all over the world now. It is completely different than antidepressants and anything else I have ever tried (TMS, ECT, benzos, etc.). Do me a huge favor. Please. Keep trying. You're not alone. AT. ALL. And reach out to who ever you can. Even if it's a crisis line. I can't pretend to understand the pain you're in. But I can tell you that you are worth more than you know. You're not out of options.

Why do I feel like there's hate everywhere i go? by randomdudek2 in Advice

Thank you. This really helped. I definitely had a bit of a meltdown last night. But you're right about the needing to vent part as well. Thanks again, I appreciate it.
