I can tell you what I did the last time because I'm not doing it again lol.

His old boss he was really into. Talked about her all the time. And they were clearly really good friends, but she was taken. When she broke up with her boyfriend it was a mess, and while she was going through it she gravitated toward me. I don't know what I did or said but she texted/called me for advice and help with her situation constantly, asked me to come pick her up from her ex's apartment just to get out for awhile, and what started as just helping a friend out turned into flirting and her staying over at my place. Frequently.

I wasn't sure what to do and asked my friends for advice, and basically everyone said "your brother will be fine, just date her". But it came to a head when RE7 released. This girl wanted to come home with me and watch me play it after the midnight release, and when I went to pick her up from work my brother was there. I knew he didn't have a shift that night, he just came to say hi to her. So, oblivious to the situation he tagged along, and it was awkward all night with her cuddled up to me on one side and him trying to make conversation with her on the other side. When it came time for bed and it was obvious that she wanted to go upstairs and sleep with me my brother just looked at me like a heartbroken puppy.

After that night I broke it off with her, which probably made things worse. I didn't tell her "it's because my brother really likes you a lot and I don't want to do this to him" because I thought that would be bad, but at work she would constantly talk to my brother about me and ask him to ask me why I broke things off. He didn't really talk to me for awhile. And it's still a sore subject. He sees himself as an inferior version of me and what happened with her only reinforces that belief.

So now with this girl I'm not sure what I'm gonna do, but it won't be that.
Not good at playing Dr.Phil or anything, but just say your bro is interested in her and dap him up.

Y'know, honesty is the best policy and all that After-School ****.

Oh good holy Christ that’s terrible

I feel so sorry for the guy, he seems like such a nice dude, Someone give him a break, sheesh...
He's an incredibly nice dude with a big heart, and I know that he would actually be a much better boyfriend/husband than I would be if given the opportunity. But he has such bad self-esteem problems and zero track record with women. I'm trying to help but...

Ugh.

Reminder that there are people who say that Sakurai is having his urges getting the better of him of picking characters he wants, which makes him an awful developer because he isn’t listening to the fans at all, and needs to be punished heavily.

This is from GameFaQs btw.
I saw people on this site say the same thing about how Sakurai cared more about his bias for wanting a wrestler than "What Pokemon fans truly wanted!"

**** Gamefaqs and by all means Sakurai choosing Characters he wants is a great thing!

And he absolutely is listening to the fans We have Ridley and K. Rool for gods sake, If he really is choosing characters he wants then Geno would get in one day and that's one of the biggest fan favorites left.

What they say doesn't mean **** and that right there is a contradiction both the fans and Sakurai want Geno so even if he is choosing characters he wants we'll get Geno eventually.

Gamefaqs is so stupid.

It shouldn't matter too much anyway. The man's not a Robot, he's gonna have his preferences and sometimes that shows in his work. He's given fans like us a lot of cool characters. Mega Man, Sonic, Ridley, Ryu, Simon, Cloud, K.Rool ect.

I admit to not giving a **** about either Persona or Dragon Quest, but it's not like I need to play all 70+ characters constantly. If Erdrick's in, then it's no skin off my back

He doesn't know yet. At least, I don't think so.


His self-esteem is a mess. Basically the whole reason we invited this girl over os because he likes her. She's a mutual friend, and she's great, and I know my brother likes her so I cleaned the house, made a big dinner, tried to keep gearing the conversation back to him but... Yeah. Backfired.


Lol I'm not. The issue is that my brother and I are alike in so many ways, and the ways that we aren't make me more "conventionally attractive". I'm taller, leaner, have more hair, more confidence, I'm older, I drink, have a house, own my car, etc. So I... Unintentionally attract people my brother likes. I guess.

She was pretty clearly more into talking to me over the course of the night but I chalked that up to me being more of the conversationalist. But then I got a text when she went home that made her intentions more obvious. Last time this happened and my brother found out he was kind of devastated. Ugh.


I have no secret. I think women like chasing what they can't have rather than taking what they can easily have right in front of them. That's my only explanation for why they keep liking me.
I can relate to your brother then, at least as far as self-esteem goes. Though, I've grown to the point where I can't comprehend the idea of anyone being attracted to me. I guess that's my self-defense mechanism.

Hopefully he adapts to something like it, or at least mellows out to point of being happy as he is now. Better to live life not expecting anything so you're never disappointed than to desire what you cannot have.

But he can have it. I believe he can have it.

He doesn't believe he can have it.

I am so sorry to hear this, that hurts.
I hope your brother gets the dream he wants! I hope you get your dreams accomplished too!

Have anyone ever been the type of person who simply wants to point out things simply because they want to?

I have a few oddball-ish stages in the random rotation, but nothing too nutty. Traditional ruleset otherwise.

Can prolly go for about an hour.

Holy ****.

Props to you brother for having to put up with all of this and not breaking under pressure. It’s very hard to not give up, so good on him. I mean, taking blow after blow can really take a toll on ya, you know. Anyway, just keep being the supportive brother you are, and I’m sure things will get better. I can’t garuntee when, but it’ll happen.

But he can have it. I believe he can have it.

He doesn't believe he can have it.
Its great what you do for your brother but also its not so simple, self-esteem is a ***** (have been there before like many others regarding girls). Even if you encourage him, its difficult to get the encouragement through due to the fact that he probably sees that you're saying it like if its an easy thing. Keep trying though, it worked for me when I met one of my exes. Best gift a girl can give you in a relationship is confidence.

Nintendo please fix your ****ing online I beg you please
I know, right?
Smash 4 Online never had these much crashes.
Come on Nintendo, Ultimate is supposed to be completely superior to Smash 4 and the Switch is supposed to be completely superior to the Wii U.

Someone joined a Discord I am on and their name and pfp seemed familiar to me. I just passed it off as a coincidence, but I just released it was Penroze Penroze .

Huh.
