My husband’s boss (early 30s) is ignoring him (25)

My husband has worked for a company for 8 months in its marketing department. He is a coordinator and deals with a lot of the detail stuff — like placing ads and ordering company swag. He communicates a lot with the other members of the team, like the graphic designer and copywriter. Since he’s worked there, I’ve seen how hard he works. He commutes 1.75 hours each way to work and despite getting home at around 8pm each night still answers his email when he’s home and often has tasks he has to complete when he is home as well. I would say that he spends around 5-6 hours a week on top of his 3.5 hr commute and 9 hour workday. He has an enormous number of responsibilities that he has to keep up at all times. The position is entry level and he was very lucky to get it — we live in a city very saturated with graduates looking for jobs like it. It pays slightly over average for entry level marketing, but this city is also expensive and so we have been taking on side jobs to compensate for...

Is it normal to only have just one best friend [25M] [27M]

Back when I was in middle and high school I had ZERO friends. Nobody liked me and I was made fun of a lot. Now I get to college, and still I can't make any friends. I try and try and nobody likes me. Except there was one guy who reached out to me. His name was Eric. He friend requested me on Facebook and we had a few classes together. He then invited me to his art show. And we slowly started to interact. He then even invited me to his house. Eventually, we hung out a billion times and became "best friends". I see him just about every weekend. He has a longtime girlfriend of five years and we are all get along and like to hang out. Eric got into body buidling and became really muscular. And he is very attractive. He is very confident and tall and overall, is better than me at everything. He makes me look good. I've started to think about our friendship, and it just seems kind of weird. In that he is my ONLY friend. I have ZERO friends outside of him. Nobody asks ...

Girls, what's it like at the other side of the dating field?

I think just looking over r/dating or pretty much any related sub, it's fairly obvious what's going on with guys. Myself I feel like a typical example. I'm a mid 20's guy. I have friends, few are female. When I do meet girls be it on night outs or through friends of friends via socials, they may seem friendly and like me at the time, but dare I message them at a different time, conversations couldn't die quick enough. ​ I genuinely don't think I'm socially inept, I rely on being approachable and 'likeable' for my job but this is with a lot of much older work colleagues (I don't interact with many my age at work). I'm 'educated', I'm forever told i'm ambitious with great career prospects. I don't think I'm bad looking. But I just have no luck with girls. ​ Guy's don't tend to get approach or hit on. It's mostly a 1 sided effort to try and impress the girl for most guys. Which makes it so much more demo...

In your opinion, why do men find attractive a larger pool of people?

I was reading some questions on r/askmen and r/askwomen , these ones took my attention: r/askwomen : What percentage of guys look cute to you? Average response is 1-2%. r/askmen : What percentage of random women as you go about your day are you immediately physically attracted to? Estimate ranges between 90% and 20%. r/askwomen : Do you think sexually about your male friends? Average response is "very rarely". r/askmen : Men of Reddit: what percentage of the women you know do you want to have sex with? Estimates range between 90% and 60%. Dating apps statistcs further support this trend: Women Find 80% Of Men Unattractive, Says Crazy Study Tinder Experiments II: Guys, unless you are really hot you are probably better off not wasting your time on Tinder — a quantitative socio-economic study I got 40 matches in one day on gay Bumble while I got 4 matches in a month with women who didn't even write to me (only women can initiate conversations on Bumble), I got ...

/u/Greenshardware on You Are Valid

If I told my girl I wasn't sexually attracted to her she would be absolutely devastated. I don't see that working out at all. I'd be heartbroken if she told me that. July 12, 2019 at 12:07AM

/u/quargsg on Term for someone who is not sex-repulsed, but can’t stand having sex?

I think I might keep sticking to sex-averse, though there does appear to be some disagreement regarding the terms. July 12, 2019 at 12:07AM
