that guy,

I hate to be "that guy," but I must point out that attributing "trauma" to the research process in the same sentence as the actual experience of those who lived through the mistreatment really devalue…

Backend skills for a hobbyist? — Hi, I'm wondering if y'all have recommendations for backend skills that a lone hobbyist should learn? Right now I don't know everything I want to do with web design, but I know I'd like to create art…

Broke up with her, need to talk about it — Well, as the title says, she broke up with me two days ago. At first, I didn’t really feel anything, but ever since then it’s been a complete emotional rollercoaster. About a month ago, I was going t…

I (M29) am struggling to rebuild after my (F28) partner cheated — My partner (F) and I (M) have been together for years and have two young kids (3 and 1). A while ago I found out she had been talking to another guy behind my back. When I confronted it, she said it w…

My (24m) Partner(23m) Sent Suggestive Snaps to a Past Hookup, and now I Don't Know if I Can Trust Him? — Throwaway, bc my bf knows my main account, sorry for the lengthy post. Me (24m) and my bf (23m) have been dating for a little over two years now. He has always been a bit "protective" of his phone, t…

Just abandonment issues or should I be worried? — I \[23F\] and my bf \[23M\] have been together a little over eight months. We’ve already had discussions about marriage and moving in together sometime next year and I really love him. However, I went…

Me [23M] and my GF [23F] are having a disagreement and we need your thoughts. — Me \[23M\] and my GF \[23F\] have been together for about 2 years now. Ever since we have been together, she has asked me on at least 50 occassions if I would be up to try having sex with a man, somet…

Should I confront my ex or just walk away? Need advice 🙏🏼 — I’m writing this with a really heavy heart. I recently went through a breakup, and I’m struggling to process everything. I was in a long-distance relationship for about a year. Back in January 2026, …

Well I'm "only" 40 but I'm that guy, sorry 😭 I just haven't had the experience to figure these things out yet

lol to be fair to that guy, it is kind of hilarious, I'd take that instance to mean that you were a good one and your boyfriend should hold onto you! But with "Frank", have you spoken to your boyfrie…

Sorry to be that guy, how old are you and how soon are you wanting the family? I would be concerned at how fast your time frame is on that goal.

If you leave that guy, you will lose about 150 lbs right away.

Discipline or knowing "what we should do" is not the answer. Change of behavior requires identity shift *first*. Let me explain: If you don't go to sleep on time, and you tell yourself "I should go t…

Hmm, I totally understand what you're saying, and it's making me think... because she was signalling true interest in me till she had that bumble date with that guy, and then it just stopped. There re…

A little over a year ago, I found out that my dad(90) had died. My aunts and I joked that he’d decided to let go because he’d put up with Nmom for 63 years. I was 62 at the time. I’d been NC with them…

Yeah! See? You can make it happen! Watch, you’ll bump that guy, it’ll be me. 🤣😳😳 Best Reddit story ever. Hahaha! But if this does happen, please let us know. Maybe we’ve cracked the code here. Ha!

Not to be that guy, but it’s majority East Asians that do that, this is coming from someone who is Vietnamese/korean, the hierarchy bullshit has always been stupid to me. Kissing ass to whites, but lo…

Thank you. I cannot cancel or postpone at this point. I was texting with this guy back in December. Then I started seeing someone (I never met him), so I wrote him that since I started seeing someone …

There is a huge wound in your heart from the loss of that guy, however meager he may seem to me. And you are still in love. With my first, I was so in love that I let her friend-zone me for sis months…

btw she cheated on u with that guy, sexually and if she never took the step, she did it romantically/emotionally fs

Sounds like he needs help. Why not say distance yourself from that guy, don’t put yourself in any vulnerable scenarios like that and do what you can to help or get him some help.

I think it's potentially a bad idea, in the sense that you might be in very different stages when it comes to life plan. You're looking to settle down and start having kids soon, but that might not be…

It sounds like your dad is -- artlessly -- telling you that a mutually-satsifying sex life is important in a relationship, that women have sexual desire in equal measure to men, and deserve to have th…

Exactly, and I’m not saying that you’re right or I’m right, but my gut was eating at me the whole relationship and because of it I created issues that led to the break up, and that main issue was my f…

My first date post-divorce I hit it off with that guy, we made out, I cried a little bit (mostly happy tears but also "wtf I'm dating again" tears). That was three years ago and thankfully I know to k…

Ignore him. Fuck that guy, he was never your friend if he could cheat on you. The respectful thing would have been to tell you he was unhappy in the relationship. You’re better than that. Block him.

Whenever you feel like getting back together with that guy, please reread this post to yourself.

I want to very respectfully and very compassionately reassure you that the guy you were with probably adores you. You vomiting is not a blunder, there's a nonzero chance he was flattered or aroused by…

Do him a favor and don't let him look at your "roast beef" ever, ever again. Wouldn't want to traumatize him. ^(fck that guy, dump him)

If he's not that guy, then surely he'll find a woman who matches up with him. The beat goes on.
