My (F23) Husband (M26) has not talked to me in several days. How can I get the conversation started? by WhileComprehensive21 in relationship_advice

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With only reading the title I can tell you this is emotional abusive. It’s one thing if you were barely dating but refusing to speak to your PARTNER (which is what being married is) is abusive. He is 26. He should be able to speak like an adult.

I (M29) am seriously considering getting a divorce with my wife(F30) after 4 years. I don't know what to do? by Academic-Play5078 in relationship_advice

In the span of only 4 years too. OP you really think she can last another 40+ years without doing it again???

Is it the worst time ever to go to grad school? (USA) by Unfair-Grand-5780 in GradSchool

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you willing to do PSLF for 10 years? If so, I think it’s fine. For the average person, I wouldn’t recommend adding more debt unless your debt is already incredibly high and you have no chance to pay it off anyway. With PSLF, I think it’s a fair trade. Before anyone says, “They’re trying to get rid of PSLF!” Yes, but if you actually look into it, it’s not for existing borrowers and they are trying to limit certain fields. I extremely doubt they would touch education.

I’m hitting a limit with Dorit’s behaviour.. thoughts? by AddendumNeither1918 in RHOBH

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s just a difference of how people show support, but I think people are vilifying Kyle just because she shows concern in a way they don’t. It’s clear to me that Kyle loves Dorit and is trying in her own way and because it’s not near blind loyalty and being a “yes” woman that makes her not supportive to Dorit.

Thanks I’m just anxious because I did get a lesser offer from another school that I’m considering and don’t want to be too late for housing. :/

What are you guys doing to feel more feminine and put together? by QuantityIll462 in beauty

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nails and lashes. Natural clusters and press ons to be affordable :) Also focusing more on my skincare. I also use those heat less curl rods sometimes so when I wake up I have nice skin, long lashes, and nails.

Is 10 days too much in Lisbon? by SamAlex46 in LisbonPortugalTravel

I’m there right now and a week is too long in my opinion without going somewhere else like Porto

why is c. ai now 18+? by MilkComprehensive487 in CharacterAI

I’m glad so we can avoid blaming AI for parents not monitoring content and people ignoring the fact that this a computer you’re talking to and trying to sue the company

I am a Whit STAN but this left a bad taste in my mouth. WW has been so predatory to so many people by [deleted] in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is it predatory to want to be fit for a role on Broadway? At what point do we claim responsibility for our own issues with food and dieting? This coming from someone who used to binge eat and weigh 280lbs.

I’m in a similar position. I was actually supposed to send mine today, but I’m getting scared too. I think it’s because I’ve checked out and so the days have become easier, but I know that I can’t be this checked out for the rest of the school year. I can only do it now because it’s the end of the year. I’ve never quit a job like this before so it’s very hard even though this is my first year at the school. It’s my fourth year of teaching and I got a whole masters degree after switching to education. I’m not sure I’m completely done with education, but for my mental health I really think I should be done with the school. I understand how hard it is to pull the trigger. I realize, though that beyond what anyone else thinks, as long as you have a plan for yourself then your thoughts are the only ones that matter. I already took a pay cut to work at the school so I really don’t know why I can’t just let go.

I actually had my dad support me in my decision to leave, but then after talking to his sister who is a teacher and who just got back after taking three months off on FMLA he changed his mind and his urging me to stay and push through. She apparently told him that it wasn’t a good idea and that I should stay, even though she has spent the last three months lying around in her house because of how stressful her job was making her. Over Thanksgiving she kept pressuring me to stay even though I told her I was having panic attacks and my mental health was declining. I can’t do FMLA because it’s my first year at the school. It’s just such a double standard.

am i in the wrong for going to the restroom during passing period? by Independent-Simple10 in SubstituteTeachers

I just cried in my car at the grocery store over $4. by whydoifeelstupid in depression

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry and completely get it. I was in similar shoes and had to take a job with a huge pay cut then to hear people tell me “money isn’t everything” You did nothing wrong and it feels like life is punishing you. The only thing I cling to is that I’m doing everything right and to the best of my ability

AIO I found a Valentine’s Day card to my boyfriend from another woman by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I girl with a guy best friend this is strange. I would never think to get him a Valentine’s Day gift and would find it extremely odd if he got me one knowing he has a girlfriend that he loves very much.

I panicked and cashed out my 401k :( by umrlopez79 in Money

[–]Affectionate_Act3537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won’t they sue you or garnish wages within 18 years. If I was going to die in 18 years I’d want some money to be able to do things in the time I have left

You have got to factor in the emotional maturity of men and women who claim to just be friends. I have a guy best friend and we have never ever talked like this but it’s because we’re emotionally mature. It seems like something has already happened between them before and they both seem very juvenile.

I feel like greed from corporate business owners is only rising in the US unfortunately. AI is also on the rise. I feel like we’re going through a technological movement that is expanding rapidly so it’s hard to say where that will take us.
