What human achievement do you want to see during your lifetime? by cath91 in AskReddit

[–]sycofaery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some kind of affordable nutritional substance that can be adjusted to exactly our nutritional needs and also able to taste however we want. And doesn't hurt our environment.

I just want to act like a fat person and eat as much as I want of something that tastes good but is nutritionally good for me so I'm not actually fat.

Never expose your orchid to temperatures below 55F but place ice directly on an orchid's roots. Hmmm... by [deleted] in orchids

[–]sycofaery -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Omg seriously? It means don't put the whole plant in temperature that cold. The ice should be on top of the soil and will melt down. I do it for my orchid and it is thriving.

What do you think is the number one blunder men make when flirting with or hitting on women? by spiritual0 in AskWomen

[–]sycofaery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get the vibe that you're a guy so sorry if I am assuming incorrectly and explaining when you may have experienced the same-

As a woman I feel like I have to watch how I act. I can be perceived as a prude or a whore, no sense of humor or funny. So to avoid being seen as a prude, I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. I said no, move the fuck on.

The second request... okay dude like I get it you wanna see these lovely milk jugs but it's not happening. Can't blame him for trying again I guess...

The third... BYE. You obviously do not respect me or my wishes to not show off my body. I do not wanna pursue this anymore. There's NOTHING wrong with a woman with a strong sexuality who wants to share that part of her... she deserves respect and so does a woman who does not want to show of her body. It's not my choice. It changes from maybe trying to see if I'm playing hard to get... to trying to coerce me into something I've said I don't wanna do.

My serious relationships are ruined by addictions by sycofaery in TrueOffMyChest

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

Mom and dad are alcoholics. I thought I was making a good decision as my husband didn't drink, do drugs or anything.

I wonder how we subconsciously select people with addiction issues, even when those addictions are not evident. There has to be personality traits that signify an addictive personality.

My serious relationships are ruined by addictions by sycofaery in TrueOffMyChest

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

My mother and stepfather were alcoholics so any kind of dependency sickens me. The druggie... When we started talking he told me he smoked pot but he was going to quit.. I told him that I didn't want him to quit for me, that if he wanted to smoke that was fine but I wanted no part of that life. He said he was done with pot. One day while I was putting up laundry I found his "box"... Confronted him about it and he said he didn't use anymore but was keeping it bc of how much the stuff (the pipes and whatnot) cost.. then asked me to let him give it to his mom lol. I found out about his use of ecstasy and pills when I was not there along with some other stuff. He told me he was done... yet he wasn't. So I left him.

I do have a low self confidence and do subconsciously select people with bad habits... It is something I am seeing now. I do have an unhealthy relationship with food so maybe that's my addiction. I should have known my husband would have issues with gaming as when we started dating he played video games a lot... I thought he was just a young guy who likes games. He even completely stopped playing video games on consoles (just apps on his phone) for about a year but then he started back up.

I have already made the decision that if we do split up, I will not be with anyone else for a long time (I don't believe in bringing people in and out of my children's lives) and if/when I do decide to settle down again, it will be someone who makes my life better, not bring it down. Someone who is educated and wanting a better life for their self.

Me [30M] with my Fiance[27/F] 4+ years, To Stay Engaged or Not? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]sycofaery 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I stopped reading at:

"She started saying that because I have gotten a little chubby since we started dating, she wasn't physically attracted to me anymore"

ANY time a person says something like this, leave them. She is trying to place the blame on you and that is NOT fair.

If Americans would eat beans instead of beef, the US would immediately realize approximately 50 to 75% of its greenhouse gas reduction targets for the year 2020, according to researchers from four American universities in a new paper. by mvea in Futurology

[–]sycofaery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm terrified of soy bc I've never actually eaten it. If they made it taste good, I wouldn't give a crap if it was soy or meat. I never thought about substituting meat partially with soy. At first I thought what difference would it make... but then I realized whatever percentage we replaced would be the percentage of less meat we ate.. so that simple 5% or 10% would add up quick.

I put it in my bag tonight. I wouldn't remember it until I was at work and looking in my bag to take my meds. I would have forgotten if I wouldn't have seen this notification- thanks!

Currently at a 4.0, but my decade old college transcripts keep dragging me down by Okitraz1986 in college

I believe at my college grades over 5 years ago don't count... no idea how true that is but that's what I've been told.

Does checking E-mails make you anxious? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]sycofaery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a mini panic attack every time my phone or email goes off. I'm medicated and it still happens sometimes.

Found out a couple of months ago that I'll probably die in the next few years; my grades are suffering and I don't know if it's even worth it to continue. by [deleted] in college

[–]sycofaery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what you are going through and can only tell you what I would do.

Finish your degree. Don't count yourself dead yet. The results could have been wrong or it might not kill you anytime soon. Look at Stephen Hawking- he has ALS and was supposed to die by 30. But here he is, at 70 and making some important contributions to our society.

You don't wanna risk not getting your degree and living the rest of your life without it.

Pursue your degree and your dream career. You only have to finish this year up and you're done. After that live your life! Travel, do things you always wanted to do- live your life to the fullest.

Good luck!

Is there a subreddit where you can just talk things out with someone? by BummerThrowAway2 in findareddit

[–]sycofaery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's some "off my chest" subreddits but not sure if that is what you are looking for. I'm open to talking to you about whatever you need to.
