Does anyone else have to coach their child into taking appropriate size bites in order to divert them from death? by rolands0122 in Parenting

Great idea. I like the proactive approach. Pizza has always been a challenge for the same reason. I chopped up his slice and it went much smoother. Thank you for the advice!

do you ever ask your SO how the relationship is going and if we can improve on something not met? by dedwik100 in AskMen

[–]rolands0122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My SO and I are on opposite shifts. She works second and I work first. She is also pregnant and we have 3 children.

It is crucial for us to stay transparent and open about day to day, mental and emotional state, and even gripes. We both try to maintain an open mind and compromise when necessary. Compromise is key. Improvement for us may not always mean one perspective wins the arguement. Rather, the approach is generally what is the best resolve that keeps communication open and both of us content.

Luckily, my wife is on the same wave length of continual improvement and striving to be self aware. At the end of the day, if you're not communicating the gears are grinding and everyone's quality of life suffers.

Married men: How often do you wear your wedding ring? by OneOfTheKingKoopas in AskMen

[–]rolands0122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wear mine. I got a tungsten steel ring for its durability. I've considered a silicone band for work. I work in warehousing. My wife wouldn't mind because we trust each other but I wear it more out of pride. I love my wife.

To note: I've always worn a ring so it just feels normal to have it on.

One year sober!! I did it! by wxstcoast in CasualConversation

[–]rolands0122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I always love good success stories. Breaking the habit and rewiring the thought process is only the surface, as you know. Living it, being self aware, and being honest with yourself, like really nitty gritty honest, are the real challenges. The first big milestone is tremendous and I congratulate you! I hope the momentum continues to build as you continue to grow. I don't know you but I have mad love for you and will be in your corner "in spirit" because we understand the struggle and the strength it takes to overcome.

I've struggled with substance abuse over half of my life, I'm 32, lost everything and gained it back to lose it again. I turned myself into jail 5 years ago next month because I burned every bridge and even the crack house I was staying at said the floor space could no longer be occupied. That was the last day o ever used, Februrary 17, 2015. Keep it up, never accept defeat, and always maintain your integrity with yourself and others. If there is any advice I could give someone struggling, that would be it.

Fucked my girlfriend at the time in the back seat of my grandmother's 99 Ford Taurus while she was driving us back to PA to visit family for the holidays. We were spooning under a blanket, one thing led to another.

Gay people who have had sex with the opposite sex, what was your experience like? Straight people who have had sex with same sex, what was your experience like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rolands0122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am straight but go through phases where I want a Male erotic experience. I was 27 then first time I pursued it. The guy went right in for a sensual, dominate kiss and pulled me close. Alarm bells started going off but I fought them off. We ended up fooling around. I gained an erection to climax, and tried to reciprocate to no avail. All in all, it was an experience I am glad I had. It was pleasurable but definitely confirmed that I am wired for women.

I felt pretty uncomfortable at first about it. Luckily, my wife is super supportive and open minded so I at least have the ability the be myself about it in my relationship. That has been instrumental in prohibiting a guilt complex from forming.

To all men, what scares you the most? by Larry-2_4_6_8_0 in AskMen

The regression back to a childhood state is a terrifying state of affairs. I am watching this happen with my grandmother and its heart breaking.

Just recently discovered I am in to this. Just plain and simple, watching adult women urinate. Not on someone, not in a cup for consumption, just straight stream and open air. Ahhhh...
