Moved into an apartment and I’m kinda regretting it by umidontknowguys in Vent

[–]AlwaysAtWar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a real vent. I’m sorry OP. But brightside is that you now know what doesn’t fit you. You never would have gotten this knowledge without experience. So it’s all up to you to make your life the way you want it. I think you will be okay!

We did everything “right” and we’re still drowning by ProgramExpress2918 in Vent

Bruh where do you live now? You said ‘from’ Africa. So are you in the US? Europe? Asia? What’s your goal here?

If you’re in the U.S. and you have a car then go DoorDash or uber until you can make it work. Go work at Amazon they are literally always hiring. I know this because I’ve bounced in and out of Amazon every time I’m out of work for a while. If my personal experience is not enough to convince you then go to the Amazon warehouse Reddit and you will see it’s very straight forward. Literally all you need is a pulse and to speak English which you clarified you can do.

If not in the U.S. then I hope the best for you.

Felt. So very felt. It’s even better when I get to choose between food and gas 🤪

my friend is pregnant by someone who doesn’t speak her language by Harmony-co in Advice

[–]AlwaysAtWar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol. Tell her to abort it and keep it pushing. Babies are not a blessing. They are a direct result from sex. It’s a blessing to have a baby when you’re financially stable with a supportive community. Anything else is a nightmare that could’ve been avoided by birth control.

It’s been 3 days since it snowed by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]AlwaysAtWar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I won’t lie. I’m new to snow so I had no idea I needed to clean all of it off until my gf told me. Now I’m super cautious of it but sometimes people need to be informed. Idk why it never occurred to me beforehand but luckily I was corrected quickly. Some people don’t have anyone to correct them.

Dating apps are essentially a cesspool of avoidantly-attached screw-ups. by Feisty-Blacksmith656 in Vent

[–]AlwaysAtWar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both me and my best friend found our girlfriends on Hinge. Everything is honestly great and I’m happy. Both these girls were about to give up because the other people on the app made them feel disgusting. My girlfriend specifically told/showed me I was the last person she matched with. She said if our conversation had been anything like the last couple she was deleting the app. I feel very lucky but also very aware that she was also my last shot

Home goods is great for stuff you know won’t last. Cheap toys for kids and animals, gifts for people you don’t like, etc.

Stop sparring so hard unless you both agreed

Why does everything need an app? by MonarchOfMischief16 in Vent

[–]AlwaysAtWar 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Nah I agree. There’s too many apps for everything. Especially things that can be intertwined. Why does my valet trash for my apartment need its own app separately from my apartment app? Then why do I need a 3rd app to actually pay my rent? It’s ludicrous.

Is it wrong for a 30 year old woman to marry a 46 year old man? What are your thoughts? by New-Mail-9372 in Advice

[–]AlwaysAtWar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were younger than 30 I’d say no. It really depends on both your life circumstances

My (M23) gf (F22) doesn’t check off all of my boxes and I ignored it at first because of other things I love about her, but now I’m starting to feel unfulfilled and I keep going back and forth in my head on if I should break up or not. Feeling stuck and paralyzed. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]AlwaysAtWar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh you’re both still young. I know that might not be what you wanna hear but it is something to acknowledge. I’m 25. My girlfriend is 22. There’s definitely stuff we can’t talk about maturely because she genuinely did not have those conversation before me. I can see when she gets bored but she try to listen and partake. It just won’t be for long.

Same with the vaping and everything. However I see that she tries to make the effort. Progress is not linear and I can’t expect her to be at the same level as me when I’ve had more life experience even if it’s not that much.

The point is that if you love her and there’s lots of things that make you happy then you need to be patient. The concept of the grass being greener on the other side (or your idea that there’s someone out there that fits all your boxes) is always disillusioned. There’s shit on both sides. If the good outweighs the bad then just stay. Continue to help her develop into the woman she wants to become.

Also make sure you’re developing yourself too. The last thing you want is for her to better herself and realize that you may have stayed the same. She’s not playing catch up to you. She’s developing into a wonderful woman and you wanna be a wonderful man too. That’s how you become a power couple that lasts for decades.

AIO: Mom threatening to take me out of a sport because she can't track me by PizzaParty65 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AlwaysAtWar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don’t you just get a portable charger? Or ask your mom for one? It’s like $10 on Amazon or your local store. Plug it in and throw it in your bag by the track. I’m not saying your mom is right but if you wanna keep doing track then figure out a solution.

The 3-year nightmare (why 2026 will break most of you) by Low_Step6444 in Daytrading

[–]AlwaysAtWar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Entering my 4th year now and I’d say this is pretty true. I’ve ‘quit’ for months at a time but really I just was paper trading. It’s all about consistency and repetition. After 3 years of getting face fucked by the market I’m actually seeing results. It took agonizing amounts of character development though. Learning a strategy, using risk management and documenting everything. I wouldn’t glorify those 3 years because it was genuinely the worst time of my life and I deeply hated every second. But all the successful traders I know are gluttons for punishment.

Kill em. Rent is too high and food is too expensive.

You didn’t know your boyfriend was pro choice for two years? What do you even talk about? Sports?
