Reminder this sub is for asking for advice!

Power tripping mod time!

This sub has gone to absolute shit and not in the intended way. We have never really heavily enforced that top level posts must be questions asking for advice but with the deluge of absolutely fucking awful top level posts giving advice it's time to start again.

Not sure what the rules said on "new" reddit but I updated it. Starting now all posts much be asking for advice.

Also, this sub is easy prey for reddit's AI "moderation" and giving advice like "just go and unalive their family" will probably get you hit with a sitewide ban for threatening/inciting violence. It also saddens me that I had to type unalive so I don't banned... again.

Update: Crossposts are banned now too since they all suck and none of them are asking for advice.

My wife made us a joint account and then gets mad at me for buying weed and rolling papers with it. How do I explain to her that she's the dumb one here?

I have to explain it in small simple words to her that only an idiot could understand because I can't understand most bigger words.

How do I prevent myself from falling in-love?

2 Upvotes

There's this one woman I been seeing that initially I just wanted to fuck, but now I'm actually starting to like her alot. 🤦🏾‍♂️

I'm worried about catching feelings, because I already have other females that I'm involved with, and I don't want to let them go all just for one woman, because that would be irrational.

How do I solve this problem?

I'm thinking my 401K has too much money in it, so I would like to make a large withdraw so I can invest it better. What's a good amount? 100k? 200k?

F25. I started talking to this guy like a month ago. And we have an age gap of like 6 years. We started off just being casual but he said he really likes me and wants to start being more intentional. I feel so under established in my life. I don’t have a job right now even though I do have a degree. He makes great money but he also has 2 kids from 2 different women. He has his own place and works out, reads, eats healthy. He’s raised in the projects and maybe that is irrelevant but I wasn’t. That environment feels very lustful and different to me. He’s been shot and has a lot of issues with the cops right now for things. I feel like he’s too good for me even as a women. He wants to show me how I can start my own business and all this other stuff but i genuinely feel like I don’t belong. I am beyond anxious about this. I also have super bad face dysmorphia but I think what I see is true and can’t be convinced otherwise. I started taking anxiety medication. I don’t know what to do. Is it my intuition saying something? I think my physical appearance is stopping me from pursuing this but also do I really want to be a step mom at 25? He also talks about how many women he’s been with in the past and it’s true that men can easily replace women. That looks do matter to them a great amount. I wear a lot of makeup and things to hide how I really look and he is a good looking man who says looks matter. Around certain people from my past I did not worry about my looks as much but here I am. I don’t know what to do? It’s getting debilitating. I feel like it’s my fault I can’t handle this and if I was pretty in another life then he could’ve been my person.

Is it gay to be homophobic?

15 Upvotes

So I'm homophobic and I have gay friends that I have sex with, no homo, of course, but then they ask why I say no homo if I'm gay, so I was wondering if they thought I was gay because of my homophobia. I don't know what you think?

I optimized my roommate’s side of the apartment to improve our daily traffic flow, and now they’re threatening to move out. How do I explain I’m just trying to help?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m honestly baffled and could use some perspective.

My roommate and I have lived together for about a year. They’re a great person, but I’ve noticed their side of the living space is highly inefficient. Their desk faces the wall, their laundry basket constantly blocks the main walkway, and their bookshelf is nowhere near the outlet they actually use for their lamp.

Last Tuesday, while they were at work, I spent a few hours rearranging their furniture. I moved the desk to catch the natural light, relocated the bookshelf to the optimal corner, and created a clear, 3-foot-wide walking path. I even made a quick, color-coded floor plan and left it on their pillow with a nice note explaining the "Quality of Life upgrades."

Instead of being grateful for the free interior design consulting, they came home, freaked out, and accused me of violating their boundaries and being "controlling." They’re now talking about breaking the lease and moving out.

I genuinely don’t understand the reaction. I didn’t throw anything away, I didn’t damage anything, and the new layout objectively saves us both about 15 seconds of walking time per day. I’m just trying to be a good roommate and add value to our shared space.

How can I calmly explain the logic behind this so they see it’s a win-win? Should I offer to do a 10-minute walkthrough with a stopwatch to prove how much more efficient the new setup is?

Thanks for any advice.
