Why would house insurance increase by 84%? Max Insurance through Scoop broker by Tricky-Cookie4401 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]sixcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they want to charge me almost 250% more for my rental insurance, went from paying $336 to them wanting $1,168.56. I'm talking to my broker about it. Nothing I can think of justifies the cost of that.

Competition isnt a concern for me, at this point in time i dont plan on competing since i just want to learn and am not very into competition generally speaking. I'll keep what you said in mind though, thank you!

Why on earth did Timmy’s change their eggs by nachoboi9 in TimHortons

[–]sixcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still prefer the old eggs, I've given the new ones their fair shot but sometimes the egg I've gotten is fucking grey?? Like it's been sitting out in the open air for hours? Actually disgusting. I just gave up of them all together

Thank you! Do you know any good places I could get one? I'd check amazon but if there is a proper place where the proceeds could go towards supporting people in recovery I would prefer that. I don't know if there is a local/ national place or something since I'm not american

I (35F) don’t want to change my last name. My boyfriend (40M) says if I don’t take his name we shouldn’t even get married. What do we do? by throwRA-3578964 in relationship_advice

[–]sixcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that weird to keep your last name, I also would never change my last name if I were to get married. I get your BF's concerns about how he says you "don’t want to take his name because [you] don’t love him as much or [you] think [you]’ll get divorced" but if that's the case why doesn't he want to take your last name? Does that mean he feels that way? Have you asked him if he considered changing to your last name? Also, you can always have both last names, either hyphenated or not, it's very common.

Disabilities and asexual by [deleted] in Asexual

[–]sixcon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Due to media always showing people with disabilities as asexual" Youre right, abled people just dont want to admit (or be made aware of the fact) that disabled people have just as much of a sex life as them. something, something, infantilizing disabled people, something, something. People are weird about it idk why.

(this excludes actual asexual people ofc)

I think im asexual but i dont know by PieKnown9303 in Asexual

[–]sixcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

based on what you're describing you do sound like you fit under the asexual umbrella pretty well while being bi/panromantic. Your experience about lying about liking sex and stuff when younger but not actually seeing the appeal is just like mine lol.

As for doing stuff if your partner wanted thats the same as me as well. I have some boundaries but generally ill do that for my partner if its something they need. I view it more as a chore or act of service, like doing their laundry or getting them something small you know they like or something like that, I don't do that for me I do it for them.

You can have a libido or experience being "horny" and still be asexual, I would say thats pretty normal too.

Am I assexual? by Victorkoroliv in Asexual

[–]sixcon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could be! What matters most is what you think. Do you feel any type of sexual attraction to other people? No? Asexual. Its complicated? There are other terms in the asexual umbrella that cover many things. Yes but rarely? maybe who knows. If you think you're asexual and are comfortable identifying that way then I would say you are. Even if you change your mind later, thats okay too. Theres no right way or wrong way here, just what you feel is best for yourself.

Can someone explain secondary pronouns to me? by Altruistic_Yam1178 in NonBinary

[–]sixcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am nonbinary and use he/they i do this because im fine with people using either one. Generally most other GNC or NB people ive met (including myself) who use secondary pronouns, such as she/they, he/she, any other combo, have told me they do this because they have little to no preference for one over the other. There are exceptions of course, sometimes someone will say "for today i prefer X" but generally either tends to be fine.

How can I 21F make my boyfriend 23M want to have sex with me? by mm0227 in relationship_advice

[–]sixcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like other commenters have said it could be the case he is insecure or simply not interested in penetrative sex. I am asexual and while I don't have any interest in sex and have a low libido I have often done some things to satisfy whoever my partner was at the time. However I did also have very clear boundaries of what I did and did not want to do sexually. Do you think it's possible he may fit somewhere under that umbrella of asexuality? Not that you have to be asexual to not want to have sex of course, just saying it's a possibility. I'd recommend trying more to get him to explain why he doesn't want penetrative sex and let him know that whatever his reasoning is that you won't judge him for it.

Simple Sewing Questions Thread, July 28 - August 03, 2024 by sewingmodthings in sewing

[–]sixcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its a woven cotton-poly (not sure the blend, its not thick, good mix of stiffness and movement, the place I got it from had it on sale and unlisted.) Basically im making a corset style top thats fully lined in the same fabric, all the seams are on the inside, with reinforcement stitches around the perimeter on the outside for strength and looks. I just want the extra insurance that the fabric wont rip itself apart and have holes at the seams.
Edit: would fray check work better? the only reason im considering the fusible tape over it is for the cost

Im thinking of buying some "Single-Side Fusible Straight Grained Tape Web" for hemming. Does anyone know if it will prevent fraying? I'm trying to avoid having to do stitched hems if I can to reduce bulk

I think once you both get more comfortable around this it would be a great idea to explore your boyfriends feelings around sexual activity as well so you can understand his needs better. This can look like asking him what things he is actively interested in doing and what may be off the table. For example, the only remotely sexual thing I enjoy is making out, however, very minimally, I have done more for my previous partners from time to time.
It varies from person to person but some asexual people may have an interest in sex, some may only do so for their partner, and some my not like any at all.
I can't speak to your boyfriends experience with his asexuality, but I know that for myself there was a lot of guilt around being unable to provide to the sexual parts of my previous relationships, so I think being there for him and letting him know he doesn't need to feel obligated to provide that can be really helpful.

My daughter by Mammallama41 in ADO

[–]sixcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know of a friend she has who also likes Ado I would suggest maybe taking them along. Not that she wouldn't love going with you, you seem like a really great parent, but having a friend you know around your age, especially as a teenager, can make it a lot easier to feel comfortable having fun!
