Because they don't actually want to be friends with her, they just want to be nice to her long enough so that she will have sex with them.

Anyway yeah a lot of fringe ideologies have a couple of good ideas surrounded by a whole bunch of toxic ones. MGTOW for example has some ideas baked in about how you shouldn't define your self-worth around what a specific hot girl you've decided to fixate on thinks of you, which is good, but the rest of the sentence is "because all women are psychic vampires who live to thrive off of your misery" which obviously ruins it.
Incels seem to have somehow found the middle ground between PUA and MGTOW that throws out both of their respective small kernels of truth, though, so maybe just stick to laughing at their completely batshit "science".

Anyway, confessor, you are not like Louis CK because you are not famous, and famous people can rehabilitate themselves much more easily than non-famous people.

But at the same time I love drinking so much I'm glad I can do more of it and for a longer time and pints here cost a quid so it'd be rude NOT to be a drunk.

...what / where is this magical Christmasland? I just paid 11 quid for two pints. 😀..

It is a safe, inoffensive version of what they really believe. What they really believe is horribly toxic. Screaming "she friend zoned ME!" basically means "she refused to gently caress me after I was nice to her and I'm angry." Like sure you can be disappointed if you want but being angry and acting like she owes you sex because you were nice to her is not ok. It's making the problem be her for doing things wrong but it's like hey buddy you might just not be her type. She might already be in a happy monogamous relationship or be gay or something. It isn't like a dating video game where the girl automatically says yes if a certain number is high enough.

There's kind of a contrary online thing (and in SA) that says this stuff is completely without merit, but there actually are people who will string someone along out of insecurity and neediness, mixing in social cues that are usually part of a budding sexual relationship, only for an ego and emotional boost. The truth is, though, that it's a minority of people who do that, and it's mostly a thing in adolescence when everyone is an insecure poo poo bag.

You see some super-hot types that pull it off until much later in life, but oh well - that's just life, deal with it.

Getting taken advantage of happens to everyone in the dating scene, and learning how to see it coming and avoid it is a worthwhile social/emotional skill to acquire. Let's face it - almost everyone is exposed to people like that, but healthy people either a) see it coming and bail or b) have it happen once or twice and go 'well that was stupid I should avoid that in the future' and move on.

I always liked the phrase "100 miles is a long way in Europe and 100 years is a long time in America". We drove from L.A to Black rock desert for burning man, and were astonished at how you could drive for days and not have the scenery change 'at all'.

Tbh I have never heard of someone getting culture shock from moving to like, maryland from California. The biggest changes I’ve heard of has been like moving from a more rural area to urban. America is loving homogenous culture wise and the argument that just because it’s geographically big it’s got just as much differences in culture as other places is loving lol

Someone on SA once described the concept of "fuckzoning" as when a woman hooks up with a guy who has no romantic interest in her and falls under the impression that they are now dating

e: to be clear the woman is the fuckzoned one in this example

You probably get the most culture shock moving from a red state to a blue state or vice-versa and everything else is just kind of a microcosm of that

quote:

My wife is out of town for a few days. I decided to buy a sex toy and enjoy myself while she's gone. Harmless, right? No problem, morally, right? I like big women. Not obese women, just large women. Tall, big thighs, big old booty. So, naturally, I ordered a big booty sex toy thing. It's supposed to be a big jiggly plastic rear end. The website said it would weigh about 30 pounds. I thought, oh, that's perfect. My six foot tall wife weighs more than 200 pounds and I pick her up and gently caress her on a regular basis. This should be no problem. NO PROBLEM AT ALL, I thought.

To spare you the details about how I masturbated with a plastic object, I'll just say this: I had to go to the hospital, the bill is ridiculous, I have multiple lower body injuries, I couldn't explain certain things to my Uber driver who took me to the hospital, I couldn't explain certain things to the hospital staff, and I couldn't clean up the situation I left at my house before I had to seek medical treatment.

My wife will be back in two days. I'm stuck in this hospital bed for three, so I've been told. Please pray for me.

lol

yeah honestly I heard "30-pound sex toy" and my first thought was "that sounds loving exhausting" but

drat what did you even do that you couldn't like clean up your jizz or whatever before summoning an Uber to go to the hospital (lol American healthcare)? Why would you send in this confession anonymously but still hold out on us like this??? More details plz

Followup from the guy who was considering whether he was molested by a priest:

quote:

First, to "Anne Whateley" (if that is your real name): thanks for taking a break from dunking on dudes in the /r/relationship thread to take a shot at delegitimizing male sexual abuse.

I actually did need a suppository once - I don't know if they've changed but yes it was commonb back then. But it wasn't administered in a room at my church, or by a man who isn't my dad, and didn't involve my penis at all... do I need to go on? :mad:

To loq: The person I suspect was named in the report as an abuser. I'm going to speak with a friend who is a lawyer in PA - but it's my understanding that the statue of limitations has passed, and he's already a documented sex pest numerous times over so I'm not sure what me coming forward would achieve other than stressing myself out. Plus to be frank, nobody's ever really given a poo poo about me, so I don't really feel an obligation to help others at the expense of my brittle mental health.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I also want to re-iterate these are vague memories, and based on my research any attempt to "recover" them is scientifically dubious. I've been trying some scientifically sound stuff (like watching Nicktoons like Doug and Rugrats and simpsons eps from 91/92.) Didn't seem to help but simpsons is good and cool so that's nice.

yeah my rec was to just let it go if you weren't contributing to the arrest of a child-molester, given that he's already busted I say just self-care your way through

My dude I absolutely wasn't trying to delegitimize anyone's sexual abuse (and fyi all genders have buttholes).

If now you remember your priest grabbing your dick at church, check with a lawyer and try to metaphorically murder him. Last time you posted, you remembered none of those three elements, you only referred to "I'd had these weird dreams that someone was trying to do something to my rear end." And you wondered if it were worth trying to uncover more memories, which you didn't believe in.

I just offered the possibility that that vague memory -- if it were limited to the butt, as I said -- could possibly be caused by a suppository. If you're now sure about the priest at the church with your dick, then of course that possibility isn't relevant at all, and that's fine.

Followup from the guy posting about Masons:

quote:

runupon cracker: lol thanks for repeating random stuff you read online, i'm so glad i had a man to explain freemasonry to me!

ACTUALLY freemasonry is totally ok (they require you to affirm a belief in a higher power, that doesn't conflict with being catholic at all) and has been for ages. The no freemason catholics thing is LITERALLY medieval. Or like, whatever the 1700s was.

And I never mentioned organized crime though I understand how many agree the police are simply a form of RICO.

So yes I stand by my assertion: What started as jerk offs getting each other out of parking tickets escalated to dudes getting out of domestic violence/rape charges, so then the pedos could lord that knowledge over said "Catholic Mafia"

If you ACTUALLY LISTENED to the casefiles ep I linked you'd know it's not a literal mafia, just assholes looking the other way on poo poo that escalated into a pedo protection ring. Jesus Christ Marie!

This one is short but sweet:

quote:

When I get stressed I yank out my toe nails and pour hydrogen peroxide in. The little crevices fill with blood and there’s an audible hissing noise as it bubbles.

It actually included a picture as an attachment but it's really gross and I kinda didn't want to upload to Imgur to link it unless someone explicitly tells me they want to see it, so if you want to see what appears to be a bloody toenail next to an intact thumb (for scale) let me know
