Driving without depth perception is not just legal but can also be fine. Stereoscopic vision is just one tool we use to perceive depth; you also get tons of other info from things like perspective. You can drive even if you only have one eyeball. My mother has no stereoscopic vision, and in 50 years of driving she's never even had a fender bender.

If you feel too nervous driving, don't drive -- that's your call. That's about your nerves, not about what people without stereoscopic vision are capable of. It's not at all negligent or inappropriate to license those people.

Chiming in as someone with a driver’s license and astigmatism, this is spot on. I can see well enough to drive, but I choose not to because I recognize that I am not at all equipped to do so for other reasons.

I found dick pics in my gf's phone

quote:

Hi again everyone, two days ago I posted that I forgot to eat with my gf because I fell asleep and she was distant. Last night I was in her house and for a moment I looked at her phone screen and she was talking to some guy and when I asked who was him, my gf set aside the mobile phone so I wouldn't see anything and said "a friend of our family". So later, when she was sleeping I took her phone (I know her pin) and I received a message on telegram from that guy and scrolling up I found a lot of dick pics and my gf flirting with him. And not only that, she had some of these pics saved, and Idk if the pics are from the same guy. I took screenshots of all pics and I sent all of them to my phone and I've printed them and stuck them on the wall of her room. Finally, I've left her house and already received 27 calls from her in less than an hour. I don't want to hear from her anymore. All of this is disgusting af.

Success!



Why does my (F21) husband (23) masturbate immediately, every time I leave the home?

quote:

My husband and I got married earlier this year after dating for several years. We have a healthy relationship and I am available to be sexual with him whenever he wants to.

I know that masturbation brings a different relaxation and pleasure than sex so I am totally okay with him masturbating (to anything really. I have sent him plenty of photos but I also don’t mind if he likes to think of other people or use porn).

I have noticed though that every single time I leave the house he immediately masturbates and I just am wondering if this is normal? It makes me feel kind of weird. I don’t feel like it’s because he is hiding anything (he could always go to the bathroom and lots of times that’s just what he does). But it just feels weird to me because I’m not kidding it is literally EVERYTIME.

I have several examples. Earlier this week I was going out with a friend. We said our goodbyes, I went to the car, and I kid you not, I say in the car and remembered I forgot my wallet, went back in, and he was already masturbating in our bed.

Then tonight we were in the middle of a project and ran out of zip ties. I went to the store and got zip ties and it took me maybe 15 minutes. I came home and he is still working on our project but when I went in the bedroom and noticed a shirt he came in sitting in the wash basket (he only uses this shirt to cum in).

It’s like this literally every time I go out. I can tell from the assorted cum shirts that pop up in the wash basket.

Do you think this is anything weird? I know he gets less alone time at the house than me but emotionally I can feel like he is WAITING for me to leave so he can finally relieve himself. And that feels bad. Also our sex life hasn’t been very active lately because he has been really depressed from a job he has but he is also actively pursuing other jobs. I haven’t brought it up because I don’t want to pressure him.

Side information: he has had some trouble getting hard lately from stress I think but I don’t think he is addicted to porn because I know he masturbates to a variety of things.

tl;dr: husband masturbates the instant I leave the house literally every time. I feel emotionally bad because it seems like he is waiting for me to leave so he can finally do it. I’d like your opinions before I talk to him.

Doesn't this moron know anything?!

The exact process varies by state but in the US you don’t have to have a disability to get a non-driving photo ID that’s everything a DL is without the driving part. It’s the same as what you get if you physically can’t drive for whatever the reason may be.

He wasn't her friend for the last few years she was in there and that was perfectly fine with him. The ex has rightly assumed he'd come running back if she called. At best she'll swindle resources from him to get situated when she's out, at worst she'll do the exact same thing but cost him his relationship while she's at it.

He's totally having conjugal visits, isn't he?

Amy doesn't belong in there at all. She's going out of her mind with boredom sitting in her cell. While she has been put on some courses they are far below her capability (she has a degree in mathematics and numerous financial certifications, and they're only offering her very basic skills courses). She has to wear clothes that are usually over/undersized and have been worn by many others before. From what she's said I think she's being bullied in there too. She's said a lot of the other women ''don't like her'' because apparently she comes across as spoiled and snobby.

I'm Amy's only friend. Why should I let her sit in that shithole all alone when I can be there just as a friend to help her through it?

The responses are completely full of "dude she is a criminal, she was caught and found guilty what's with this 'She doesn't belong in there' "

If all her friends and family have cut her off, that's pretty alarming. He says it was an "easy money" scheme but that could be skimming off the top of large accounts or outright stealing from disadvantaged elderly people or any manner of seriously gross financial crime. There's probably a huge reason why they all cut ties and it sure as hell is not that she was a minor participant who got caught up with some bad criminals.

His girlfriend is 100% going to drop him if he sticks with the weekly jailhouse visits from a years ago ex.

Not even conjugal, I don't think that's even allowed unless you're married or seriously committed. He's basically at her beck and thrall over her sob story about how horrible it is for her and is drinking the kool-aid that she's some tragic figure who needs him in her life.

As in like you've never even flirted with the dude or anything and he just sends you a dick pic and you're like "not bad ;)" unsolicited, or a couple have been flirting pretty heavily with sexual stuff and then he sends one?

Because while I know someone must do the former I find it unlikely. The latter is more of a grey area I guess.

Did not know that was a requirement - apparently 'family visits' are spouse or domestic partner only. But its emotional cheating for sure.

I (26M) found out the girl I like (29F) spent time in jail for stabbing her ex.

quote:

Some background first. I recently joined the marines, and spent longer than normal in boot camp because I was injured. During that time I was in the medical rehabilitation platoon and made a lot of friends with other guys in the same situation. One of those guys would get letters with cool drawings on the envelopes so one day I asked him who they were from. He said the letters were from his sister. I asked how old she was and if she was single and he told me she was about my age and yes she was single, “do you want to write her?” I had meant my question as a joke originally but after he offered I figured it couldn’t hurt to send her a letter.

For a majority of the 8 months I was stuck in bootcamp we wrote letters back and forth. Nothing serious was really mentioned in them, and I didn’t make any attempts to flirt with her in the letters. I did find out she lived near the recruit depot, so when I graduated I took a day to go out and meet with her. We hung out the entire evening, she was super cute and we had a good time.

Fast forward a few weeks and I’ve been texting her regularly now that I have a phone again and we still haven’t made any moves towards a relationship. I came back to the area to do more training and we hung out a couple more times.

Well, this most recent time we hung out we were with one of her friends that works at a jail, and she casually mentions that she was in that jail last year for stabbing her boyfriend. I jokingly backed away a bit as she told the story and we all laughed and I came back in and continued talking, but we didn’t go into much depth on that story.

So now I feel a bit conflicted. My usual rules would say that’s a big red flag, get the gently caress out of there, but I don’t know that I want to. She could have kept it secret, she could have a good reason for having done it, or she could just be psycho and I’m not seeing it because I like her. I don’t know. I feel like my buddy would have warned me upfront if she was crazy, but maybe he doesn’t really know because she’s family.

I kind of want to know more about the story before I make a judgment but I also feel weird being like “hey remember that story about you stabbing your boyfriend? Yeah, let’s talk more about that.”

WIBTA for wanting to go through a marriage pact with my same sex, straight best friend?

quote:

Twenty years ago, my best friend forever Tess and I made a marriage pact after seeing a movie where two characters joke about doing something similar. We were single and in high school at the time. The pact was if we were still single by the time we turn 35, then we'll marry each other. Tess and I are straight and female.

Cut to now. Tess divorced her sorry excuse of a husband and I've never been married. Neither of us are interested in men anymore after the poo poo we've been through. In the last few years, we've grown more closer than we ever had before. We want to spend the rest of our lives together. We spend a lot of time together, we stay at each others houses and I swear I parent Tess' son more than his sperm donor ever did.

My thirty fifth birthday is coming up near the end of 2019 and lately Tess and I have been talking about our old marriage pact. We want to go through with it not because we're still single by the set age but because we feel a strong enough bond that we want to spend the rest of our lives together. And legally, it would just be more beneficial if Tess and I married instead of living together unmarried, especially if something catastrophic were to happen to one of us. And Tess really doesn't want her son going to her ex's toxic as gently caress family if she dies.

Not many people know about our pact, but some of our family and friends don't like the idea of us going through with it. My sister has been the biggest vocal opponent. She is straight but has been campaigning for LGBT rights for a long time now. She thinks that the idea of Tess and I getting married cheapens the fight for gay marriage and makes the whole struggle she's fought for a mockery. Some of our friends think that marriage pacts are dumb and only exist for the sake of drama on TV, but support it because us getting married would be a celebration of our union and our love for each other.

Reddit, I have no idea what to do. I love Tess and she loves me even though we're heterosexual.

This is a hard question to ask, and I don't know if I'm going to like the answer but it needs to be said:

WIBTA if my best friend and I carried out a twenty-year-old marriage pact even though we are straight women?

Should I(18F) be concerned my (18M) boyfriend’s has been eating horses lately?

quote:

So, I live with my boyfriend and his family. We’re both 18. His family took me in due to me not having anywhere to go after entering foster care. I work full time. In reality, I could leave if I wanted to now, but I prefer being with him and his family.

He also works.

But lately, holy poo poo. I make food for him since he can’t cook, but crikey. I make what he wants me to make. He hates fruits and vegetables. I’ve tried to have him try cabbage sautéed in butter and slightly charred on the edges, or mangoes or apples etc.

He had two eggs yesterday for breakfast with a half of a can of spam and maybe a cup and a half of rice, then a quart pounder hamburger for lunch with French fries, 3 donuts, two quarter pounder burgers for dinner with fries, ice cream, two cans of soda and cup cakes.

Then today he had a plate of hamburger steak and teriyaki sauce over rice with an egg, then a donut, nearly a pint of ice cream with cake, soda, a plate of poutine and wait for it! He hasn’t even had dinner, more soda and his other pint of ice cream yet.

He’s been slamming down pints of ice cream and McDonald’s lately all the time, but past week has been a holy poo poo level.

Should I be concerned about this? He likes to eat. He’s a chubby guy. He gained twenty pounds like in the past two months. He was 270 lbs, and like two weeks ago he was 290 lbs. But this is....unusual...even for him.

TL;DR:

Should I be concerned my 18m boyfriend has been eating horses lately?

Being unable to drive safely and recognising that and declining to drive despite that is not 'failing to adult', and that attitude is why there are so many accidents on the road.

I don't have my license. I could have my license - I passed all the tests and got approved for one.

Except I was deeply uncomfortable driving, and despite my family and partner trying to pressure me into ignoring my gut feelings, I trusted them and stopped driving and didn't get my license.

Surprise! A few years later I discovered that due to a visual impairment, I have zero true depth perception (no stereoscopic vision at all). I have no ability to accurately judge my own position in relation to others, and get by day to day using compensation methods. Putting me behind the wheel of a car would be absolutely negligent, and it's crazy that I was ever okayed for a license.

Car culture is insane, and the weird obsession with driving as a benchmark for adulthood is incredibly stupid.

your case is kind of an outlier though. unfortunately for you and other people who really actually shouldn't drive because they literally aren't capable, theres people who dont drive because they just don't want to know. and people who drive but dont actually know how but dont care to learn for whatever reason. but generally speaking, its weird to not know how to drive. especially weird to not have a license, since they're really cheap and easy to get. it's kind of like never learning to use basic hand tools: completely understandable but also says that a physically capable person is probably really lazy

the fact that a car is a basic tool is an indictment of our insane society. if we had any sense getting a driving license would take longer than a college degree and would be taken away irrevocably at the first sign of irresponsible use. probably also it should be illegal to listen to the radio or have anyone else in the car who could distract you in any way. cars are incredibly loving dangerous. they're normalized yes, but theyre still incredibly dangerous.
