2024.06.10 19:30 bloodypink Stuck as a sex object; no friends. I need some support please

I know this sub gets a lot of negative stories and I’m sorry to add to that. But I know you guys can understand part of my perspective as fellow plus size people. That makes a big difference.
I’ve struggled with severe social anxiety for most of my life (I’m 26F). This plus how I was raised has left me so isolated. I never had friends in school and until I was put on a certain anxiety medication a few years ago, I couldn’t even talk to people online without extreme anxiety.
The past few years I’ve been opening up more but I guess not in the healthiest way. It’s mostly been sexual. For so long I felt I was undesirable in every way. I started posting some pics online and for the first time in my life, men showed interest in me. But it’s only because of sexual attraction. I’ve never had someone actually care about me. I’ve never had a boyfriend. After only becoming sexually experienced in person last year, I realized that sex is actually very easy. Getting people to care about you is not.
I’ve been stuck now holding on to guys, keeping contact open with them, because they talk to me when no one else does. Even though their motivation is sex.
I’m feeling extra shitty right now because I feel like I ruined things with a fwb I’ve been seeing for a while now. All because he wanted to talk about sex and I said I was sad. I usually keep my feelings from him because something like this has happened before. He blames himself and thinks he’s at fault for making me sad. We were going to meet today but he said we don’t have to and now I just feel like I’ve lost him.
He only texts me on days he wants sex. But after we meet in person, we chat sometimes and it’s really nice. He’s literally the one person I’ve talked to the most as a “friend” in person. Even though it isn’t even that much and even though it’s only after we have sex. But I guess it’s just so he doesn’t seem like an asshole by just rushing me out after.
I guess I know things aren’t the healthiest with him. But I want him. Even if it’s bare minimum because guess fucking what — I don’t get anything else. No one cares about me. People say I should learn to love myself first and be comfortable with myself. How do I do that when I wasn’t loved as a kid? When I’ve been isolated? I can’t deal with this loneliness. I’ve been alone forever and it hurts so much. At the same time, I’m very introverted and like being alone but it’s the loneliness that kills me. Knowing no one cares. Not having anyone to talk to. Knowing I’m just something to be used.
I’ve never had girl friends either. For some reason, girls scare me. I tried making local friends using the friend option on Bumble. Every girl on there is gorgeous and married or has a boyfriend. They have careers. I’m so far behind in life. So I think, no wonder no one wants me. I don’t deserve it. I don’t deserve friends or a boyfriend or anything.
Add on top of everything as a fat girl, I’m only visible to guys who just want sex. Other girls are grossed out by me. I feel completely inferior to other women. I’m just so hopeless and alone and sad and scared. And I manage to fuck everything up.
I hate feeling like this. How do I make it stop? The only people I talk to are a few guys I’ve hooked up with who still talk to me because they still want to fuck me. I guess that’s what makes it easier to talk to them because that physical attraction is there and I don’t have to worry about them not liking that.
I really need help.

2024.06.10 19:29 kwokiemonster Guy I'm dating doesn't want to post about me

Hi, I'm (28F) dating a guy (36M) for almost 5 months na. He just got off from a 10yr relationship and he claimed na he wasn't happy na with her (plus other conflicts) that's why they ended. They ended things well naman like there was closure. And it felt like final na talaga.
We're getting serious na in our relationship and we're planning to move in together kaso lang I have a few issues with him:
  1. Di pa nya ko pinapakilala sa family (not even a mention of my name), although sinabi naman nya na he's seeing someone. They know he stays at my place every weekend.
  2. I don't feel secure na over na talaga siya sa ex niya kasi parang ako pa nagsasabi ng mga gagawin niya to move on.
  3. I posted him na sa IG stories, along with my friends. Ayaw niya irepost sa feed niya kasi daw: hindi daw nya gusto yung photo, he doesnt post about girl stuff, and he doesnt post group photos.
The thing is, he has an entire album of a girl friend from college for no reason (bago pa lang daw FB that time); profile pic niya yung ex niya dati; and I saw na nagppost naman pala siya ng group photos. So I feel like lahat ng sinabi niyang reasons, invalid.
Am I asking for too much considering wala pa kaming half year? Do you think he's kinda "hiding" me?

2024.06.10 19:28 PristinePlankton754 Women with close male friends: what is the issue

I actually completely understand the issue since i had the unfortunate experience of "befriending" (quotation marks because she ended up being one of the worst friends ive ever had) a girl who treated every male friend she had like they were dating, including my ex (Eye twitches) and men she knew were into her or at least had been in the past. But what about the normal women? I believe girls like her are making a bad name for the rest of us and should be put down. I grew up mostly befriending guys since i was a little weirdo who couldnt quite hack female friendship, so it's just what im used to. And since lots of the guys im friends with saw me through those weird little phases that lasted all the way into early high school, it's really clear that they still view me like they did back then. the only one of my guy friends who has ended up being into me has been a (now ex) best friend of mine i met AFTER i became reasonably attractive (i did end up dating him but i also had a girl best friend end up being into me and was involved with her for a brief and regrettable period of time so the two cancel out), all the other guys ive attracted were not my friends beforehand.
I do have four good female friends who i love and cherish and a bunch of other acquaintances but i honestly just have more fun with guys lots of the time. I also hate to pull the "girls are more drama" card since, until very recently, i believed it to be the opposite (lots of the guys i was friends with in high school would bitch out at each other over stupid stuff and then go back to normal whereas my girl friends would operate more reasonably) and i still think it depends highly on the individual. however, ever since that girl i mentioned at the beginning essentially terraformed my relationship with my ex because she was jealous of my friendship with her ex (even though she had a friendship that any outsider would think had romantic undertones with mine), ive been incredibly wary of girl friends. the drama with them is rarer in my experience since it's all about picking the right people to be friends with, but if you do stumble upon a landmine of a woman, theyre more likely to blow up your life than some of the overly dramatic guys i knew in high school who would cuss your friend group out because their football practice went badly and then be fine within the hour.
The activities my guy friends typically do for fun and the dynamic they share are just more appealing to me than the ones i typically find with girls. Honestly if i could go back to my birth and be a dude i probably would (not in a trans way since the most appealing things about being a guy to me are social and professional benefits that wouldnt be easily achievable as a trans man, and if i had to chop off my boobs id be sad). It's really that simple. And yet ive been getting to know this guy who halts the conversation every single time i mention a guy friend. If i were friends with my ex, that would be one thing, but we havent spoken in months and probably wont ever again. im not friends with any guys who have been into me or guys who i'd go for. I feel like i can really be myself around my male friends, and i dont ever feel like im treated differently just because im a girl. if i was dating someone and one of my guy friends was making them uncomfortable, id look into his behavior and distance myself from him if i felt that he was into me in any way. but if i start dating this guy im not going to abandon some of my closest friendships for him when they arent a threat to him at all, and i wouldnt make him give up his genuine female friendships for me either.
So Whats the big deal? am i being unreasonable? i get why many dudes initially see red when a girl has a lot of male friends but generally do they believe there to be any exceptions?

2024.06.10 19:26 darwazatoddo 22F First heartbreak, got over it so soon?

So, long story short. I really really liked this guy. Did everything for him. At least tried to. Replied to his texts within minutes so he doesn't feel lonely there all alone in another city. I was sure he kept me as a backup. And turns out he had other girls. Prolly dated one too while he asked me to not talk to anyone else. He said he was just lonely. I was hell bent on making him feel less lonely but I guess I made some mistakes. I had some expectations from him. Not too much but I wanted us to talk at least once a day. He had certain expectations from me too. This I know. He wanted me to remember his stuffs. The little things he used to say. He asked me to wish him morning and nights. Etc. Was he really into me? Or he just liked the attention?
Anyway we're on good terms now. Way better terms. I am just friends with this guy. Don't expect a thing from him. You don't wanna text first? Great. Left my text on seen? Great. As long as he is happy.
But man, I got over him way faster I guess. I got what I asked for. Good terms and good friend. He's happy. Moving on to new junctures in life. I wanted him to be happy. Have plenty of money. Spend all of them on all the stuffs in his bucket list he shared with me. God, I like what's happening.
I still get heartthrobs when I look at his profile picture. Aw the smile. I'd die for it lol. Eh exaggeration? Idk about that. I still get jealous when he mentions he found so and so girl cute (he said it only once). I miss his raspy sound.
But it's only 1 month. Wasn't I supposed to cry over it for at least half an year? Cause I thought I liked him too much right? Or what I experienced with him for over an year wasn't likeness? Affection? Or did I find out he wasn't the one I wanted to love? I don't want to think that it wasn't love or anything like that. It's invalidating an year of emotions.
But guyss here's the kick. He is earning almost double now than what he was a month ago. He buys all those crazy expensive stuffs and I don't relate with him at all. There's no topic to discuss on. And that makes me sad. Was this it? Thats it? Khatam? Itna hi tha? Funny thing, I wanted him to buy whatever he wanted. Now that he is doing that, I don't have anything to talk about. He is so out of reach now. I'm happy but Idk how to feel. Now the entire day goes by thinking what I'd talk to him today. Now that I got the genuineness from him, I don't wanna leave it like that...

2024.06.10 19:23 oakshieldjones Please educate this bigot (me)

Haven't been a part of any lgbt, feminism or trans circles exept an ftm subreddit here and there since 2019 so I'm really out of the loop on what's acceptable and non-problematic to say. I kind of feel torn between wanting to learn and being like fuck this circle jerk. I left the community because all of it gave me the worst brain worms possible. I wonder if anyone else kinda just burned out from social justice, bread tube, lgbt or trans spsces or whatever you may call it.
Touching grass made me waaaay less understanding and compassionate with online people in a way. I'm not a rude person and wouldn't go about ruining someone's day, but I do get weirded out if trans people are very vocal about being trans but don't make an effort to pass. You know the stereotype, very fem looking pre-T ftm dude that's crying online about being misgendered. Or whatever. It really makes me somewhat mad and I really don't understand them or why I'm that mad about it. I just can't for the life of me accept that some extremly fem people (that don't make any effort to pass) are claiming to be ftm.
Could be rage bait, but there's just so many of them online. And I'm not talking about pre-T dudes or trans guys that are feminine. It's the fetishist side of things I'm concerned about, ftm dudes that call themselves femboys or people that don't make any effort to pass yet expected to be served all of the privileges that come with passing. Can't for the life of me accept that guys like that are in fact trans men. I will respect their pronouns and gender of course, but I don't think we belong in the same group. To me that's not transgender, what they're something else.
There's the argument about resources, that they are most likely some kind of non-trans and using (or spoiling) our resources.
I also have the concern that legitimate trans people might lose resources because law makers have to account for high detransition rates.
But bruh why for the life of me can't I be 'live and let live' about that? Anyone else struggling with that or just me? I'm pretty sure that I'm not on the right side of the argument here and I don't claim to be. The people I'm talking about are probably just a vocal majority.
Anyone got some pointers to resources that might help my brain comprehend why fem presenting guys are still guys and not a danger to the trans population?

2024.06.10 19:23 WavyWormy I always thought I was just asexual?

My entire life has been turned upside since last Wednesday and I found this subreddit and wanted to know if anyone could relate.
When I was little, like 5, I remember intensely liking girl characters. I thought Esmerelda, Nani, Kida, and Jasmine were the PRETTIEST character I had ever seen and used to replay their scenes all the time. My sister had “normal” boy crushes, like Peter Pan, Eric and Milo. I remember her explaining to me that when I really like a girl character I’m admiring her and want to be like her, and when I admire a boy character like my sister then I’m attracted to them. My mom still brings up how funny it was that most of the characters I admired had dark hair since I’m very pale and blonde.
Throughout elementary I never hit a boy crazy stage like my friends were starting to enter, and in middle school I started to feel self conscious that I still didn’t feel a pull towards any boys. In 8th grade a ton of my friends and I watched Thor at a sleepover and they all cheered when he had a shirtless scene and I felt very weird having to fake being happy. I genuinely felt nothing for seeing him and it made me really wonder why at 14 I still hadn’t started liking boys.
Throughout high school I had one “crush” on a boy I friends with. After months of knowing him I believed I had developed a crush because we were compatible and funny, and I believed that if we dated I “probably wouldn’t be grossed out.” Which is the furthest my attraction could get.
In college I turned down every guy who asked me out claiming I had a boyfriend, because when I would be asked I would get this wave of anxiety through me. Not because I felt unsafe, but because I really didn’t want to go out with them. I learned about what asexuality was and was like “omg that’s me, I feel no pull towards any men.” I could fantasize about fictional men, like Brendan Fraser in the Mummy lol but any time a real guy would flirt with me I would get that wave of a feeling like ew. I considered myself demisexual, because I took the fact that the high school boy didn’t repulse me as evidence I could like a guy.
In my junior year of college I bit the bullet and accepted a date. I had just turned 21 and had never had my first kiss and really craved that milestone. He planned a nice coffee date and the entire time I felt this feeling like I shouldn’t be here, I don’t like him. He kept asking me if I’m comfortable/feeling okay because I don’t think I could tell I was into the date. He gave me a kiss goodbye (after asking he was very nice) and I felt nothing but this repulsion. I said yes to a second date but then when he started sending me flirty texts I told him I got a new job and am no longer looking to date.
I was sad that I was asexual. I’ve known since I was little that I want to be a mom. I want a marriage and kids and I was worried that couldn’t happen for me. At 9 I found out that my friends dad was away for a year because he was in the military and I used to fantasize that my future husband would be deployed or even dead so I could have a house and kids but no man.
During my last year of college I met my next door neighbor, this girl I’ll Megan. We ran into each other in the hallway and ended up standing there talking for the next 3 hours. We were inseparable for the next year. She came over every morning to have coffee with me and I came to her place every night for a movie or video games. I had never felt a pull to anyone like her. We could talk for hours and we did everything together.
One night she told me she had broken up with her boyfriend because she realized she was no longer bi, but instead was only into women. I felt so sad in that moment that I wasn’t into women and couldn’t be with her, that unfortunately I was demisexual and only towards men. Idk if she was sharing this because she was gauging how I felt, but she accepted me being asexual and we moved on to another topic. When we graduated she took a job across the country and I moved to Europe for my masters and we quickly lost touch.
It’s been 2 years since we talked now. I didn’t go on a single date in Europe and continued to turn down guys. I’m 25 now and have been feeling this longing to finally be in a relationship. I want a family one day and started feeling anxious about knowing I need to bite the bullet and start accepting dates with men. And then I made a LinkedIn page and Megan came up in my “people you may know” last Wednesday.
Seeing her picture for the first time in 2 years has brought a rush of feelings. The flutter of excitement I felt when I think of spending time with her, how beautiful and funny she is, how I felt spending time with her, so comfortable. For the first time in my entire life I thought “Am I gay? Do I like women?” Every crush I had as a kid, all the girls I “wanted to be like” and that anxious feeling I get when guys flirt with me.
I literally typed into Reddit “how did I not know I like women” and this subreddit came up with a ton of similar stories. I’m having this complete identity crisis, it puts my entire life into perspective when I think of Megan and girls like her. My parents are very conservative, I went to church twice a week until I was 13 for youth programs. When I think about telling them one day I get scared and feel like they’ll see me as a predator? Like women get objectified all the time and they’ll view me like I’m doing something bad and unnatural. But when I think of having a girlfriend, genuinely for the first time in my entire life, I feel so happy and comfortable.
At least half my friend group are bi or gay and I still didn’t consider it for myself despite who I surround myself with lol. I’m visiting a friend back in Europe this summer from my masters who is bi and thinking of confessing to her, but I feel dumb now since last year I explained how I was asexual idk if she’ll understand why it’s taken me so long.
Just wanted to share and thanks if you read this long!

2024.06.10 19:22 kaczmar12 Satisfying high school friends to lovers

Hi guys! I love watching those fluffy friends-to-lovers stories where we follow the characters from highschool, through uni until adulthood and just finished watching "a river runs through it" which was amazing. BUT if I watch one more of those dramas and live through 30+ episodes of yearning just for the main leads to get together during the final 5 minutes of the last episode, I'm gonna cry. I want to see the characters actually dating and living the happily ever after just like in "When I fly towards you" Also PLS no tsundere, standoffish ml
I saw Lovely us and Our secret recommended online, but I'm scared they'll do the last 5 min happy end as well
Some dramas I watched that fit the vibe: a river runs through it, when I fly towards you, go ahead, wait my youth, hidden love, a love so beautiful, you are desire, with you, le coup de foudre, put a hand on my shoulder...

2024.06.10 19:21 Extra_Function_2455 Some useful marriage advice for anyone.

Marriage is hard. Damn hard. I wish I had read the manual a few times before i said "I do." Perhaps I would not have broken mine if I had done that.
Anyway, I read what is listed below some time ago and found wisdom in it. Perhaps it will be helpful to someone else.
Choose to love each other even in those moments when you struggle to like each other. Love is a commitment, not a feeling.
Always answer the phone when your husband/wife is calling and when possible, try to keep your phone off when you’re together with your spouse.
Make time together a priority. Budget for a consistent date night. Time is the “currency of relationships” so consistently invest time into your marriage.
Surround yourself with friends who will strengthen your marriage and remove yourself from people who may tempt you to compromise your character.
Make laughter the soundtrack of your marriage. Share moments of joy, and even in the hard times, find reasons to laugh.
In every argument, remember that there won’t be a “winner” and a “loser.” You are partners in everything so you’ll either win together or lose together. Work together to find a solution.
Remember that a strong marriage rarely has two strong people at the same time. It’s usually a husband and wife taking turns being strong for each other in the moments when the other feels weak. Prioritize what happens in the bedroom. It takes more than sex to build a strong marriage, but it’s nearly impossible to build a strong marriage without it!
Remember that marriage isn’t 50-50, divorce is 50-50. Marriage has to be 100-100. It’s not splitting everything in half, but both partners giving everything they’ve got!
Give your best to each other, not your leftovers after you’ve given your best to everyone else.
Learn from other people, but don’t feel the need to compare your life or your marriage to anyone else’s. God’s plan for your life is masterfully unique!
Don’t put your marriage on hold while you’re raising your kids or else you’ll end up with an empty nest and an empty marriage.
Never keep secrets from each other. Secrecy is the enemy of intimacy.
Never lie to each other. Lies break trust and trust is the foundation of a strong marriage.
When you’ve made a mistake, admit it and humbly seek forgiveness. You should be quick to say, “I was wrong. I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”
When your husband/wife breaks your trust, give them your forgiveness instantly which will promote healing and create the opportunity for trust to be rebuilt. You should be quick to say, “I love you. I forgive you. Let’s move forward.”
Be patient with each other. Your spouse is always more important that your schedule.
Model the kind of marriage that will make your sons want to grow up to be good husbands and your daughters want to grow up to be good wives.
Never talk badly about your spouse to other people or vent about them online. Protect your spouse at all times and in all places.
Always wear your wedding ring. It will remind you that you’re always connected to your spouse and it will remind the rest of the world that you’re off limits!
Connect into a community of faith. A good church can make a world of difference in your marriage and family.
Pray together. Every marriage is stronger with God in the middle of it.
When you have to choose between saying nothing or saying something mean to your spouse, say nothing every time!
Never consider annulment as an option. Remember that a “perfect marriage” is just two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other.

2024.06.10 19:21 ValuablePiccolo3547 Mohammad El-Hadi Investigation

It seems to be a trend that young men are being pulled from the rivers in our region. I do not want to sensationalize this very real fact. I am a life long city of Pittsburgh resident, and hospitality worker. I have never heard of this many people disappearing, only to be found in the river, in recent years.
The death of Mohammed is startling and so very sad. I think we as citizens and tax payers deserve more transparency from local government, for the safety of our community members.
There has been so much speculation about the murders and disappearances being linked together. Even the post gazette podcast about the smiley face killer.
If there is even a chance that young, possibly LGBTQ+ community members are in danger, it is up to us to keep eachother safe, as well as police.
Maybe there could be a forum where we discuss:
Not walking alone at night.
Safety in numbers.
Not getting into strangers cars.
Be extra careful about who/when you meet someone from online dating apps.
Share our local experiences.
Maybe this forum already exists and I’m not aware of it. Just want everyone to be safe.

2024.06.10 19:18 Fearless-Ad1469 This is mostly a cry for help..

Sure, here is a refined version of your text:
From the very beginning, I always dreamed of having a high-end PC that could run all my favorite games at a constant 90 FPS or more. When I was younger, this seemed like an unreachable goal, but by now, I thought I would have achieved this. Unfortunately, the "PC gods" seem to have other plans for me.
Recently, my brother gifted me an RTX 3060 TI Gaming OC edition from Gigabyte for my birthday. Before that, I had an RX 580, which clearly struggled to meet my software demands aka no rt cores, no tensorRT no DLSS no nothing lol. With the new GPU installed and everything set up, I expected a significant performance boost. Instead, my experience has turned into a nightmare—my performance has either drastically decreased or not improved AT ALL.
I understand that my old Ryzen 7 1700 CPU is a bottleneck, and I plan to upgrade to a Ryzen 7 7800X3D. However, even in a game like Roblox, yes you heard right , roblox (bad business ngl), where I used to get way more than 100 FPS and often hit the FPS unlocker limit of 300, my performance has plummeted. Now, I'm lucky to get 80 FPS in Phantom Forces and not even 60 in Bad Business, which is much less graphically demanding. The same issue persists in GTA Online, where I struggle to get more than 50 FPS, clearly due to the CPU bottleneck as i can like, feel it i think ? I have low fps yes but no more bad reaction time from the game.
I just want to enjoy my games, but there's an ongoing issue with so many of them that I suspect stems from my PC as a whole. That's why I'm here, sharing my cry for help. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Btw i got 32Go corsair LPX profile XPM 1 at 3000mhz so now ram isnt an issue neither.
Thanks for reading this

2024.06.10 19:17 Dear_Part_4582 The primary grievance of women in modern dating

I genuinely believe that the primary grievance women have in the current dating market is that the hot men only want sex and the ugly ones try to talk to them. An ideal dating market for women is one in which they can secure a physically attractive man for a monogamous long term relationship and the ugly ones know their place and leave them alone during their search.

2024.06.10 19:16 patrick401ca So happy to have found this place

My whole life I have been attracted to both women and men. Since I was a child. I tried to convince myself I was just attracted to women despite the “Whoa, I’m gay” moments when I saw an undressed man, but then I would see a picture of a hot woman I would think I was straight again.
I ended up dating and having sex with women in high school and college but I knew I was attracted to men too and I felt that I couldn’t marry a woman.
So I switched to exclusively having sex with men. Eventually I fell in love with one and we’ve been together for decades. The gay community has tried to push me into the gay box because I am in a committed relationship with a man but I still am attracted to women too. I just don’t act on it.
I’m so glad to find this community and feel like I have found my people. I remain equally attracted to both sexes and never understood why other people weren’t!!

2024.06.10 19:16 FlounderInitial8001 Did that Grindr experiment again

Did the same social experiment again last night and today, I created a fake profile on Grindr and within the 1st 20 minutes had 10 messages and all day today had 30 plus viewed (At its peak) 206 times and still to check it out (As I had put it on snooze mode) And 99% of the messages were guys asking how I was or straight up sending nude or dick pics or albums. (And as I posed as 22 year old twink guy majority of those guys were 40+ but there were lots of guys that persons age too but vast majority were old men)
Some of these guys even had boyfriends. So yeah kind of solidifies what I posted before majority only care for sex and look and dick size (Some were even wanting it without a condom) Guess it's too hard to find a fucking decent guy who wants a normal monogamous relationship (Who's not a creepy old man)

2024.06.10 19:16 whobroughttheircat I replied to a guest review in a way I think we all wish we could.

We just had our second busiest weekend of the year. College graduation.
It was an absolute snot fest of affluent entitled Ivy League parents. Complaining about damn near everything and treating my front end staff as sub-human for the whole weekend.
The litany of horrific interactions could be its own post in itself. The holy grail I am after is always the post stay reviews.
I love reading people’s post stay reviews and pettiness. I love reading bold faced lies and their attempts to shame and get free shit.
One in particular stuck out to me.
This guy, we’ll call him Mr. S, gave us a 2/10. In his comment section were the most red comments I have ever seen.
  1. App is terrible (that’s fair)
  2. Checkin and mobile key is useless and nonfunctional. (You selected mobile check- which is we alert you when your room is ready, idiot.)
  3. Had to have the plastic key card. (Sorry?)
  4. Breakfast arrangement is terrible (cafe style at this property. So no buffet or continental. Actually cook food here)
  5. Shampoo and other containers are hard to read. (Sounds like you found the right one though)
  6. Water in the lobby tasted like cucumbers. (It was cucumber infused water)
  7. Profile says high floor and I got ground floor. (Entry level member for starters. So you are 1 step ahead of pre paid when it comes to getting the floor you want. Also had only 8 arrivals due to graduation sell out and nothing else available.)
  8. Front desk= no communication at all. (Guy was super pleasant when I checked him in. I explained the difference in mobile key and mobile room check to him. As well as the we had 8 arrivals and unfortunately nothing available on high floors due to the graduation. Should have tried harder I guess)
  9. Not a great experience hence why I don’t stay at insert hotel name here hotels. (Good see ya)
So I replied to this review using our generic “apology with no compensation” template. You just have to fill in certain areas.
The first area has a spot where it says “Your experience of [insert issue here] is below our standard. Trying to come up with a way to add everything he bitched about into that area was trying so I settled on.
Your experience with everything is below our standards.
The second part that I have to fill in goes like: “I have shared your feedback with Hotel Management leadership team to ensure the necessary guidelines are in place to prevent [insert issue here] from occurring in the future.”
Tried to think of the best possible way again and only came up with…
“I have shared your feedback with Hotel Management leadership team to ensure the necessary guidelines are in place to prevent pretty much everything from occurring in the future.”
He has since replied with a “nothing more to add this was definitely not a insert other hotel here
First of all I want to say how brave this guy was for venturing out on his own and trying new things.
Secondly I will do a follow up if corporate reaches out to me on my slightly passive aggressive reply.

2024.06.10 19:15 Professional_Rock_44 My wife (38F) was emotionally unfaithful during the worst phase of my life. Should I (35M) forgive her?

I discovered that my wife had been exchanging messages with another man. When I confronted her, she admitted it but assured me that nothing physical happened.
She told me that the day after their last contact, she felt so guilty about what she had done that she asked him to cut off all contact and scheduled an appointment with a psychologist to understand what was going on with her.
For more context, we’ve been together for 15 years, 8 years dating and 7 years married. We have a 3-year-old child. We’ve always been faithful and deeply in love. Our love has always been very strong.
When our son was 8 months old, I had an accident that left me quadriplegic. I could only move my arms a little, I couldn’t feel my body, and I needed help with everything, from bathing to eating. I wore diapers. I spent some time in the hospital and then moved to my parents’ house so as not to overburden her since she was taking care of our child alone.
Fortunately, I’ve recovered a lot. I still use a wheelchair, but I’ve regained sensation, my upper limbs are almost fully functional, and I can take care of myself independently. I can drive and even regained sexual activity. This year, I moved back home, and it was one of the best moments since the accident.
In December, she attended a company party and met a guy. Later, through social media, I noticed he wanted more than just a work relationship. I told her, and she joked about it. She’s very attractive, and this happens frequently, but for some reason, this guy made me uncomfortable.
About a month and a half ago, by chance, I found out they were exchanging messages. It started with likes and reactions on Instagram, and over the last month, their conversations escalated to daily chats. She says it was just harmless flirting, but at one point, she mentioned being unhappy in our marriage and considering being with him.
When I confronted her, she admitted it and said she had doubts about continuing in this marriage. This devastated me. I threatened to leave, and she broke down, crying like I’ve never seen before. Realizing she might lose me made her realize that she wants to be with me. She begged for forgiveness with all her might, constantly crying out of remorse and regret, saying she doesn’t recognize herself in what she did. Every day, she does her best to make things right and keeps telling me she loves me.
I believe in her honesty and think I can trust her again, but it’s very hard to forgive, even if nothing physical happened. I’ve always treated her like a queen, and she acknowledges and reinforces that I didn’t deserve this.
My self-esteem was already very affected. She knew this, and in the worst moment of my life, she had this selfish attitude. I feel less than human. I feel inferior to that man and now to all other men. Since I found out, I’ve needed medication to sleep. It’s very hard to accept that she was messaging someone else by my side, in our home. It’s painful to think that another man was boasting to his friends about having a married, lonely woman with a child falling for him.
I feel deeply humiliated, full of rage and fury.
She had already talked to two friends about her doubts in the marriage and with that guy too.
We’ve always been open about everything, and it hurts that she hid this and shared something so intimate and important with others.
We both started therapy, and we’re doing couple’s therapy as well.
She says she misses my smile, my joy, my sense of humor. And that those messages brightened her day.
We’ve had some good days where I feel I can forgive her; we watch movies together and even got intimate again. But then, there are days when I explode in anger, can’t handle it, and she ends up leaving home for a few days until I calm down. I feel very unstable and deeply depressed, just like when I was in intensive care.
She has held me many times, crying with regret, swearing that nothing like this has ever happened before and promising that it will never happen again. She says all she wants is to be married to me, the man she loves, to keep our family together, see our child grow up, and help me recover.
Do you think this is a situation worth the effort to forgive? Is it worth trying to rebuild trust and our relationship after this?

2024.06.10 19:14 DeathForever3 [Request] [PS5] V Rising (Attempt 2)

Hello there,
I am here again asking about a big thing, V Rising which is coming out on ps5 on 6/11/2024. The reason why I want it is because I had my eyes on it for a long time I almost got it years back on PC but then I saw that my PC couldn't handle it I didn't get it. And like a month ago I found out it coming out on PS5 and I don't need to play online. which for me is great. I prefer games that can be played single-player and offline. And the reason why I am here asking for it is because I don't have the money for it like I did those years ago. First off, I love vampires, don't get me wrong werewolves are cool also but I liked vampires more. Even when playing Skyrim I prefer the vampire lord over the werewolf. One, I find that the werewolf is a bit op with no downsize. And two, I just like vampires 😋. I once played as a vampire in Skyrim for like a good while, I had to cure myself because I was doing the Dragonborn DLC and there were more enemies with fire damage, and fire does not go well with being a vampire.
Here is my PSN profile: https://psnprofiles.com/DeathForever3 Anyway, thank you for reading this, and hope you have a good day 😊

2024.06.10 19:14 lcm5672 I need advice for a friend

The guy and my friend in the situation:
The guy is 29, in debt, works two jobs and lives with his parents.
My friend is also 29, a well educated woman with a stable career, owns her own house and overall is a sweetheart. She’s beautiful and fit but has been shy about dating. She focused most of her 20s on getting through undergrad and a graduate degree.
My friend went on a trip with this guy that turned out to be a major jerk. She’s traveled with this guy already prior in which she paid for most of that trip. This second trip was her work trip which she was able to get him on for free. What happened was she brought him on this trip despite multiple warnings from her other friends that he was suspicious on his behavior. He kept using the “nice guy” act on her to convince her into taking him on this work trip.
During the trip, one of her friends sent her evidence that he was definitely lying to her and ultimately he confessed to sleeping with multiple women. This overall ruined the last days of the trip for her. He tried playing the victim with her since she called him out on his behavior. He’s apologized to her but he didn’t even shy away from going out the woman my friend caught him flirting with when they returned from that trip.
His poor excuse for his behavior was that he didn’t want her knowing about the other women because she was really nice to him. She’s super nice and was very nice to this guy the whole time (they’ve been seeing each other for a year). This broke my friend since she hasn’t had a lot of experience with men. It’s been hard on her to the point that she hasn’t been able to return to things they did together like golfing. I know how much she loved golf and she told me she can’t bring herself to get back into it since she loved playing golf with him but all she can think about is how much this guy hurt her emotionally.
He’s on dating apps showing himself off as this “nice guy” and already some other women have stepped forward about his behavior giving “bad vibes”. I feel so bad she fell for someone like this. What can I do to comfort her? What can she do as well to find comfort?
Please send some words of support for her cause she didn’t deserve that
Thank you for reading :)
