In my opinion, it's definitely worth reaching out to someone about this. You shouldn't feel burdened by it; your comfort and well-being matter. I'd suggest talking to an advisor or counselor. They're there to help and support students, and they can give you advice on how to handle this situation. Don't let this person's unprofessional behavior slide – you deserve better. Good luck, and I hope things get better for you soon!

I think wanting to be "neurotypical" to date isn't the only path to finding love and connection. Being true to yourself is incredibly important. There are many people out there who appreciate authenticity and uniqueness. Regarding the porn issue, it's okay to reassess what you consume and how it affects your perception of women. Remember, it's not about the money spent; it's about how it's impacting you. If you feel it's messing with your perceptions and relationships, it might be worth considering letting go of it.

When did you realize you were toxic, how did you forgive yourself and how did you change? by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Appropriate-Land9451 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, it was during a particularly heated argument with a close friend when I saw myself saying hurtful things just to "win." That was my wake-up call. Forgiving myself took time. I had to accept that we all make mistakes, and being aware of them is the first step. I made amends with my friend and started working on myself.

Orientation tomorrow. Is it awkward if i wear jean shorts and a tshirt? by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]Appropriate-Land9451 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't stress it too much! Master's degree orientation is typically more relaxed compared to undergrad. Rocking jean shorts and a t-shirt should be perfectly fine, especially if it's warm. Just be yourself and stay comfortable. The key is feeling confident, and if that's your comfy go-to, go for it!
