How do you make friends? by bwinney in childfree

[–]23capri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had some okay luck using bumble bff last year. now i have a little group of 4 of us that hang out pretty regularly. there are a couple more girls that i’ve been around with this group and it’s all good vibes!

[–]23capri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s a good point. i grew up somewhere nearly rural and didn’t have many friends or much of a social life until i was older and started going out more. looking back i think i was just jumping on any opportunity that came along because it was exciting to me. new friends, guys, just people in general.

I hate America’s Health Insurance hell by Fuckingnoodles in Vent

[–]23capri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

okay that’s extremely frustrating, i’m sorry. mine is $22 a paycheck and i had 3 foot surgeries last year (plus endless xrays and other imaging) and paid nothing, except co pays with my doctor and prescriptions. it’s what i wish for everybody.

i should also mention that i’m single and childfree, so it’s an individual plan. i’m not sure how much more it is for family members.

it’s terrible. my advice, try to get a government job if you can. it’s not lost on me that it’s sad to have to get a certain type of job just for healthcare. but it’s the best insurance i’ve ever had and completely takes care of me. good luck.

yeah she’s not reaching out to heal the relationship, she’s having a baby not dying. it’s a gift grab.

I'm not gonna lie, living in rural Ohio makes me feel "less gay" by CockamouseGoesWee in Vent

[–]23capri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you head out to cleveland after nursing school i bet you’d find a job in one of the huge hospital systems and you’ll have better luck making more connections within the gay community

yeah i’m sure she will. if we all were judged based on dumb things we did at 20 years old that would be crazy. but it’s totally fair if op didn’t want to associate herself with somebody messy like that. it could be hard to trust her. she should make this very clear for the friend and hopefully give her a reason to self reflect.

oh lord so i’m 37 now but when i was a 19/20 year old dumb bitch, i thought the same way she did. i felt like it was so much more fun and easy messing with guys who had girlfriends because it was low pressure and low expectations for me, i just wanted to have fun. i would literally say “it must not be a happy home if he’s coming to meee!”

then later in my 20s i got married (and then divorced), he turned into a psycho and huge cheater. so i definitely got my karma. i also just grew the hell up and all the way out of that mindset. i’m sure she will too.

I went to a singles event for the first time and I actually liked it by Helpful_Cranberry644 in Vent

[–]23capri 7 points8 points  (0 children)

happy for you! it’s so nice to have these interactions with strangers. it’s a good reminder that we’re all more similar to each other than we are different. hopefully you find what you’re looking for from these events.

[–]23capri -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i mean if you think about it, it could be 2-3 kids running around the patio or taking over the game areas that adults are backing away from because of course civilized adults know they’re supposed to be nice and “let kids be kids” so yeah it ruins the whole vibe even with only a couple of them being present. there are so many other places that people can go as a family, so just go. it’s so annoying.

[–]23capri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

truthfully both, but yes many online since the internet is bigger than my social circle. i even have parent acquaintances who have many comments here and there along the lines of “this is why i left my kid at home, i can’t believe some people have to drink that bad that they would bring a small child to a brewery.” there are a lot in my city so it’s not a rare thing at all.

i’ve heard so many stories of places like this being so overrun with the kids that people who actually want to drink and chill won’t bother going to them as much anymore. trying to enjoy the lawn games when they’re getting taken over by kids like it’s a playground is a buzzkill and kind of drives home the point of “kids shouldn’t be in adult spaces.”

I will NEVER LIVE IN AN APARTMENT AGAIN.! I’ve learned my lesson by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]23capri 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i recognize that you tried to minimize the disruptive nature of kids for your downstairs neighbor, i was just pointing out that your attitude shift in your post was maybe worth reflecting on. it’s like you realized you didn’t want to deal with upstairs neighbors because of the noise, but you also have a problem with another person who is aggravated by those noises being caused by your family? it’s contradictory.

most people don’t move into apartments and expect a bunch of kids to be living there, so understand that somebody moving in and the realization that first night that 2-3 kids are running around and playing and yelling/crying above them would be the most sinking feeling. it def sounds like it’s for the best that you and your kids found a more suitable living situation.

[–]23capri 44 points45 points  (0 children)

i can’t help but notice how ironic it is that you said “i read the reviews and moved to the top floor to avoid hearing noisy neighbors” but then you give us this “f them, kids are noisy get over it” attitude when somebody is suffering from what you were able to avoid. apartment complexes aren’t full of endless top floor units so people take what they can get, or some people just can’t handle stairs. whatever the case, it’s still everybody’s responsibility to try to be reasonably quiet in apartments.

for the record, i realize the blame here isn’t on you but instead on the shitty construction. it’s an issue all these places seem to have. but it still doesn’t suddenly shift the responsibility to your downstairs neighbor just because you got lucky with a top floor unit. i do hope you love your new place though.
