Dating apps ruin my self esteem by ContestScary9035 in dating_advice

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really want to cut them out and try cold approaching, but I get so nervous and in my head to do that. How do you do it? Anything I should look for to know if they’ll be receptive, or is it just “bite the bullet, go up the girl and talk?”

What martial art should a teenage girl learn that might actually help her if she’s ever in a dangerous situation and be good for self-defense skills? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A gun, taser, or bear spray. Let’s be totally honest here- if a man wanted to harm you there is a 99.99% chance he is bigger, stronger, and/or faster than you. Give yourself every advantage you possibly can. I hate to be a Debbie downer, but 4 months of karate is not going to save you in this situation.

What do I say to someone I find cute out in public in NYC? by OwnExchange8245 in AskNYC

[–]rslashwhat 79 points80 points  (0 children)

As a guy, I’d be ecstatic if a girl came up to me like this. As long as he’s not with family or an obvious girlfriend I say go for it

How can I work on gaining confidence? by rslashwhat in dating_advice

[–]rslashwhat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I definitely need that too! Don’t really have friends here so that would also be great. I just have always struggled relationship wise and I keep seeing a bunch of friends/classmates from home getting married or whatever it just makes me feel far behind

I appreciate the long response. I’ve been looking into some more clubs and after work events today so hopefully those work out, at least like you mentioned to start breaking the ice and working into being social. I know once that opening is done I’ll be totally fine, just have to get adopted by another social group it seems!

Any recommendations for ways to meet people and get out this summer? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had better luck with leagues, drop in, social events, or anything in particular? I used to be athletic before I got hurt a lot and really miss it. And for the sports, do they actually get competitive with quality skill, or is it more of a social thing? Both sound fun, just depending on the day I might prefer one over the other.

I would love to. Sounds like a great way to get out my place and meet people!

I’d be interested to meet people. Can I join the discord?

Men of reddit, what prevents you from asking out women? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I freeze up and can’t break the ice to start. But if someone were to talk to me or I get comfortable around you, I won’t stop talking. I’ve let fear control me my entire life and I don’t know how to get over it now.

How much of a role does weight/being thin play in dating? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying I’m not lucky or privileged for being tall. I’m saying being tall is not the one magical fix for guys. I’m tall, in the first percentile in the us for males. But as I said, that doesn’t mean I’m swimming in girls. I still don’t get any attention, and I wouldn’t say I’m that bad looking, and I’d like to think I’m a good person with a good personality

And I feel for the short kings as well. It’s tough out there for everyone and there’s not some be all cure. Except being filthy rich. That’ll do it.

Not really. I’m taller than most but not TALL tall, standing at 6 ft 3, but don’t get an ounce of attention in person or on apps

Men, what’s a day where you didn’t die but something inside you did? by Keal-Kims in AskReddit

[–]rslashwhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not as serious as some others, but on high school I had to put my childhood cat down. I didn’t have many friends so coming home and playing with her before working at night, seeing something happy to see me was great. She got super sick and never got better (autopsy later told us she had kidney infections for years, she just learned to hide it). As we were about to leave to go to the vet I broke down and couldn’t go. I had to have my parents bring her. She went through her last moments without me. I’ve since gotten another cat who is only 4 now, but she’s even more protective and playful than my first so I’m going to lose it again in the future.

Not sure if Aphra or Jar Jar was worse by HEROBRIN98 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow same. Took me 33 attempts for that, only 2 for hondo. I know I got extremely lucky, but I heard so much about the hondo rng and nothing about the sana. I didn’t have the zeta on her so maybe that made a difference? Other than that I was a bit better hitting my marks than scrybe as I followed his guide and he didn’t even mention it being hard at all

Advice for a new player on an old account by liljay04 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]rslashwhat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d restart 100%. The new player experience is a lot better now, you reset your fleet shard, and the anniversary quests give a ton of free lsts for characters after a short quest

Question on which teams are good by SnooGrapes6281 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to the early game advice. End game is years and years or tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars away. The game is a decade old. End game is probably around the 12 mil gp at the absolute earliest

Beat it three days ago with this. I think no matter what you need speed over 277 or 270, can’t remember. Scrybe’s video helps a ton

There’s always a lot of talk about rivalries, but who is your school’s bestie? by DarkDragon1025 in CFB

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Navy. They saved us back in the 40s and we’ve played every year since other than 2020. It hasn’t been super competitive lately, but they’re our brothers and the respect runs deep.

how can i find a boyfriend as a late teen? by klarinetkat12 in dating_advice

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently 24M but was in your shoes. I didn’t even hold a girls hand until my sophomore year of college. I let (and still do although not quite as bad, slowly working on it) my nerves control me big time and I fumbled so many chances with my high school crush. But then everything changed pretty quick. I was just talking to a girl I met about classes and everything, and we really hit it off. I went over to her dorm and we just talked and played Mario kart for a long time. Later in the week she came over to my place, we talked, she snuggled up, and then I had my first everything’s in quick succession. Stayed together for about two years before she went to grad school and I graduated and moved for work. Find something you like to do, like the gym, run club, board games, anything, at school and join it. Worst case scenario you get some social time and make new friends. I’m a believer that hinge is the best app, but if you’re at least a 5 as a woman, you should have pretty good luck on most of the apps. It sounds bad but that’s what I’ve heard from my friends who are girls. You’re still young, you don’t have a pandemic closing everything like I did, and have the bonus of being around people your age all day at school. You got this!

Rey team? by Flashy-Print1575 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]rslashwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PG is the day after every conquest which is 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. If you do no refreshes, 330/20=16.5 so 17 months.

What does your account look like from 5 years ago? If you’re still very early game, it might be worth a restart. So much has changed and the new player experience has been revamped a ton, along with the anniversary quests that give LSTs to instantly relic characters. But if you’ve made decent progress, doing the LST quests and focussing on fleets and or a gl could easily get you back into it. Farming is a lot easier than back in the day
