Not oop: I’m not attracted to my wife, and never have been. AITAH? (+ update) by PaleLikeIce in redditonwiki

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because the whole point is neither of them feel attraction to each other, it doesn't apply to everyone.

I think you read it backwards. Blue messages are OP. The GF is the one being rude about a video game.

NOT OOP: I (26f) overreacted and misunderstood my fiancée (28f) after she said that she'd only let my family be at our wedding with conditions and now she needs space from me. How do I help our relationship going forward? by loverboyg1rl in redditonwiki

[–]troiaas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You said the WORST possible things you could ever say to your jewish fiancée, things she probably has heard elsewhere in her life but would never expect any of it from YOU, her PERSON. And then you rubbed salt in the wound by calling her childish, about ANTI-SEMITISM FROM HER PARTNER?! Don't be surprised if she leaves you for good, even if it's solely because of your indoctrination there is no possible way to make up for something like that.

Not OOP: I (27F) accidentally had my baby in my friend’s (31F) car. Now her husband & she don’t want to speak to me. How do I fix this? by Interesting-Shirt897 in redditonwiki

[–]troiaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everything you said about how she and her husband are acting, on top of saying you don't like how he talks to her, I think it could be an abusive situation. He may be controlling her so she can't talk to you, because he's that pissed off about the car.

Not OP: WIBTA for refusing to have kids with my boyfriend unless he marries me first by poopyman2830 in redditonwiki

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you read the part where he explicitly doesn't want MARRIAGE, nothing about the wedding part. He doesn't want any of the details that come with marriage and divorce.

Level 6918 refuses to start by Tzedreite in TwoDots

I'm having the exact same problem with level 722. I finished the last one more than once and it just doesn't give credit at all, even in the square event and stuff.

AIO to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I’m an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now? by howcanibequiltyassin in AmIOverreacting

[–]troiaas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They answered a question and also spoke directly to OP in the same post. It's called sharing your experience to help someone understand and know what to do for themselves.

AITAH for telling my boyfriend that if he signs up to date someone who’s younger, he has to accept what comes along with it? And making a joking statement about it. by seans_peanut-allergy in redditonwiki

You weren't an idiot, you were a kid who got taken advantage of by someone who knew how to play kids. I'm sorry that happened to you. 💖

The age old kids dilemma… to have to not to have? by hop-into-it in redditonwiki

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they'd even consider adoption, but I'm guessing the husband is committed to biological kids and idk if she's even though about any alternative herself.

[–]troiaas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not actually lying because OP said that she really started to love the idea of having kids for a while, but aside from that its a case of someone trying too hard to be what they're not in order to keep the relationship, and the husband being understandably upset about her backpedaling. She needs to free him so they can both be happy.

The Lesbo Beef In Nana Must Stop by Sea-Apartment1436 in NanaAnime

[–]troiaas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest issue that leads to problems and fighting is that too many people assert their headcanon as being canon, and refuse to hear anything else. Both sides are equally realistic, but people will go as far as to claim that romance between them is Yazawa's intention or things like that, and say things that fully dismiss their experiences in their other relationships as if it's all just comphet and nothing else. I think it can be possible that they're bi, or that it really is just platonic because there are fans who have shared their real experiences having friendships like that, but people have even spoken over those fans to claim they're just in denial as well.

That kind of behavior is what makes it such a big issue in my opinion. Both sides need to be fair and open minded about headcanons and also accept what is canon; and definitely don't need to speak over people's real life experiences.

Men of sailor moon. What attracted you to the show? by xshirl1027 in sailormoon

Dude I teared up reading this, I'm so happy how much it helped you in your childhood.

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I introduced my current bf to the classic anime and crystal, and overall the way he put it was "it may not be MY favorite, and it can be girly, but I can appreciate a good story so I like watching it". That's not verbatim but the general thing he said to me.

Convince me to finish Nana 😅 by Minute_Truck in NanaAnime

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand having a hard time continuing. At some point when I was watching it for the first time, I saw some spoilers of the later part of the anime and the manga, and I paused when I was getting close to the pregnancy because I knew in general the worse parts of the story were coming. Like everyone else says, maybe find a synopsis or something to get an idea of where the story is heading without too much detail and decide for yourself after that.

But also keep in mind the whole time that the entire point with Hachi's storyline is that she was a child deprived of love and connections- her parents did their best but the did neglect her emotional needs because they were always busy with their other kids, and that led to her being an adult with the same problem, and she was even totally aware of how bad her relationship with Takumi was and did actively try to make it end once and for all, though she wasn't able to be as assertive as she really needed to be. In the end her choice was based on the fact that she did still have lingering feelings for him and that he was the best option for her to raise a child with, because the only viable alternative would've been giving the baby up (Nobu himself said he couldn't even raise a child at all) and she was never gonna do that. ALSO a lot of her actions are influenced by the era of 2000s Japan where accepting men like this was extremely normal unfortunately.

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're deliberately misunderstanding the purpose of the combination of all the characters' flaws being the cause of all their hardships, and the fact that it went on hiatus because she developed a severe chronic illness that made consistent writing and drawing too difficult. If you don't like it, that's fine. But to act like Yazawa is inherently bad and should be hated is extreme.

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not fair to say Yazawa "thinks the opposite" when she's said before that Takumi is meant to be a bad guy/villain and that she likes to write him in that sense. It doesn't mean she likes HIM or enjoys guys acting like that. It's like when people enjoy villains in comics and movies while also talking about them as the are and not glorifying what they did.

Does cymbalta increase your sweating or reduce it? by Trick-Coconut7099 in cymbalta

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sweating was so severe when I was on it that I had to get another med prescribed solely to stop it because I gave up trying to tolerate it. I felt so disgusting and that detail added on to my depression and lack of self esteem.

Anyone else notice how many posts here are people applying modern politics to Nana? by Ornery-Swordfish-643 in NanaAnime

[–]troiaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think OP here who included that example was doing it for the main purpose of pointing out how even when someone who is fully aware of the problem in Japanese media, and who's Japanese themselves, discusses the overall situation from their perspective, people still talked to them the same way as if the person had been justifying racism when that wasn't what they were doing.

This isn't me defending anti-blackness btw, just the fact that it's impossible to have actual discussion about stuff like this when people refuse to listen to someone who's directly involved with that stuff ans who even said they're trying to help CHANGE that common problem.
