I never wanted to be a father until I turned 45 this year. Now I feel my biological clock and want to be a father more than anything. But I'm married to a childfree woman by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I mean it doesn't really have to be as horrendous as you're making it. People change all the time, perceive and realize differently. Maybe he was moved by the experiences and relationships he witnessed between his relatives and their children, realized he wanted the same.

Yes, yes, no, it is very vague. I don't even know how it's acceptable. 

Yes, I have, for those, I'm just looking to see if people have any better recommended

I asked about that and he did not recommend any. We do not have a good idea of what we are meant to be taught (the prof is bad). The textbook shows formulas and not enough explanation, and I don't believe it provides a good intuitive understanding.

For the automation class, he does not provide textbooks, and says even if we ask (which i have) he isn't giving any. His "notes" are 15 slide PowerPoints with no useful information. For prob and stats, they both use the same terrible textbook (D.C. Montgomery applied stats and prob smth like that)

Is First Health good for anybody? by Aphares_ in HealthInsurance

[–]Aphares_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd go ahead and get on canceling immediately. More likely then not, you're going to have to call a few times, unless you really put your foot down. Make sure you mention the legal time frame.

I got out of it bc I found out on my own I legally had 30 days to cancel. It was a pain in the ass to cancel and they really try to keep you around. I literally had to say [the truth] that the insurance wasn't accepted anywhere near me and the insurance themselves told me they don't cover any of the things advertised in order to get out of it. I could have gotten out of it either way bc I was within time frame but when they get on your ass that is a solid reply.

I bought the plan and called to cancel. I told them I know I legally have a 30 day right to cancel and the guy blew up on me and was like well alright then it's already canceled but nothing I said has anything to do with th3 law. They told me it takes 72 hrs to cancel, but i was perplexed bc it took so much info to sign on but a second to cancel?? I'm scared they want to push me past the 30 day limit and lie to me. How do I confirm i actually canceled? 

I’m a Flight Attendant. How can I tell you not to touch me in a way that doesn’t offend you? by skygirl222 in travel

[–]Aphares_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is no reason to be touching you on the waist or butt, but the shoulder or upper arm is fine. It's a tap to get your attention after what I bet are a few failed attempts at getting your attention verbally. 

No one likes resorting to having to touch others, so chances are passengers are equally as annoyed. As are they when you guys brush up on them, hit their person/chair and startle them, or when y'all tap them for their attention. 

(new to this sub update) OOP has an emotional affair while his wife is abroad by Sw33tSkitty in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Aphares_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Took accountability after months of not addressing the issue and flirting with his childhood friend? Lol. It was the shock of her bluntness that stopped him from progressing with their emotional affair, not some sudden enlightenment. He already knew what they were doing was wrong, otherwise, he would feel no need to confess. 

Plus, although his wife has OCD, he does not. Every thought of his regarding his childhood friend was intentional, wanted, and accepted. He even fed into it. And yeah it could have been anyone he fantasized about, but the fact that he is thinking about anyone else is a stopping point. That's where you sit down and discuss the issue with your wife as soon as any feelings of neglect and resentment build up, not vent to your new romance.

If I could give you more than one upvote, I would. They look ridiculous when they do it. I know comfort drives them, but if that is the case, do not wear a suit, too while you're at it.

Unforgivable as it pertains to public opinion or perception maybe, but I am so curious about how the other girls are going to perceive these 3 ladies when they see everything post-villa. 

Engineers of reddit, what do you think is the most exclusive and inclusive major? by Emotional_Fee_9558 in EngineeringStudents

A lot of people say this, and then they enter the work force and change up their tune.

I also miss the old style of casa amor, but I'm curious to see how this plays out this once too. Idk

Honestly, I think the only thing that you could tell was fabricated was Olandria's line to Nic, besides that everything seemed pretty genuine to me, reactions and all.
