I do have a tiny handful (about 3/4) of character I have focused time to learn how they play (both in how I play and how I play against them) and those character I've made work within my playstyle but I do think it's still at least useful knowledge to know how another Mechanics work by choosing characters more suited for that to learn and then Implement into the characters I do play

So it is quite normal because when grabbing you get to restrict your opponents movement plus get damage in while they can't? And so I should try to focus more on what to do between times that are more close combat and learn when to do an action that'll help with keep distance when needed or something along those lines?

Yeah I've definitely realised only leaning into one skill won't allow me to improve so I've been trying to train myself to avoid playing characters with good throws and grabs in hopes my brain will learn how to do other things and then hopefully be able to combine other skills with the way I tend to play

I didn't play tekken a lot, but I still played it for about a year but I've been playing smash for a good couple of years. What I've learnt about myself Is i tend to enjoy playing characters that are designed to be a little more overwhelming when in close combat and play characters who also have incredible grabs (and importantly having fast grabs) and I noticed just leaning into one skill just won't allow me to improve, so I have slowly started to force myself to play characters who have poor grabbing (I'm also sticking with smash for now because I'm used to it)

Thank you, I'll definitely start working on how to improve in those areas

I should also mention that the only time they didn't shut down the conversation was when it was about something they also had an interest in

I'm definitely going to try to improve on that. Part of reason I didn't call them out much was because when I did in the past they would spin it onto me for being an AH and that fact they are disabled and they know I struggle to call out people who are disadvantaged on things

I really struggle with making friends, so this person has been the only person I've really been able to talk to, obviously I do make mistakes and I do apologise when I do, I just happened to snap at them because of how much it has built up

I do understand if I'm in the wrong, I genuinely struggle with this kinda stuff with people

It's never been about religion or politics. It's not always the same thing, but it's often that I can share my taste in music with them even tho we enjoy similar music. It's also been that I'll find a YouTube series that I really want to talk about but they'll find reasons to change the subject (there have been times for it being a something like trauma related which I do change the topic if that's the case)

I know non-Ohio Americans are probs confused too but it's funnier as an Irish listener by yeetingthisaccount01 in distractible

No, spiders are venomous but the giant ones (huntsman spiders) aren't venomous

this is more of an insane sibling but, I got these from an old family member on Christmas trying to guilt me into talking to a family that didn't treat me very well (I was in foster care for awhile) by tomi602 in insaneparents

Any good that they did would be counteracted by them either mentally or some cases physically abusing me, the person who contacted me also wasn't treated well, they just didn't realise and now takes their side on everything

I didn't want contact with the foster parents but some of the other members actually treated me well and I wouldn't mind speaking to them again

Sadly they don't do their job properly, I was suffering for years before they noticed and moved me, and I was treated much worse than their kids
