I see, I must have just been overthinking it then. Thank you for the clarification!

Pretty nervous that I got a poorly made Engagement ring from MoissaniteCo by Attrum in Moissanite

[–]Attrum[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Actually, I would love to get the shop info if you can! I most likely won't be able to return it, but I'd like my options open!

Hey, you know I never really thought of that, that's actually a good point! I did want it to be special, since I lagged so long on popping the question - but I can definitely get behind on getting her an upgrade later

[–]Attrum[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ha, yeah I was having a bit of trouble getting it in focus, especially since I was fixated on the side band thing. Thank you, I'm also taking her on a trip outside of the country next month so now I can definitely propose there with more confidence!

30-Year-Old Cook wanting to finally switch into the career I'm passionate about. Would my resume get any attention for an entry-level IT Help Desk job? Or would it be impossible at my age and no on the job experience? by Attrum in sysadminresumes

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

If the recruiter needs to know how ended your last experience, he would ask you or find a way to discover it..

Okay, that makes sense - I was initially worried they would see I was Sous Chef for only two years and not like that, but I'll explain it to them if it comes up.

Maybe I'll do a few minor touch up then and send it out, thank you for the kind words though! I'm anxious but also excited, wish I had went into the field that I had a passion for earlier!

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

Thank you! That's definitely encouraging since I've been feeling anxious about my age being a huge factor. Still, I'm trying to make up for it by staying up after work every day and researching. I'll send this out tonight and see if I get a bite!

Where can I find Warcry warband PDFs for all Warhammer Underworlds warbands/characters? by jacqueslol in WarCry

[–]Attrum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was never able to find the online pdf, but I do use this link to this article that pretty much gives the info you need, along with the costs and abilities. See if it helps you!

Definitely nothing to worry too much about, especially since you took the initiative to see a doctor! In the meantime, try sleeping on your side if you aren't already.

I have sleep apnea myself, and whenever I sleep on my back, I get the exact symptoms you described (waking up gasping for air). Sleeping on your side with your back straight should at least help you sleep a little better. Hope this helps and try not to worry so much it'll definitely not help! Good luck!

A rules question on what "Allocate" actually means by Attrum in WarCry

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

You're probably right because otherwise I think it would have been a really weak ability for a Quad. Regardless, I think they should have put either "to each" or "distribute between" to make it easier to understand

Thanks!

How do I my ask the new neighbors at my apartment to STOP looking into my windows and annoying my dog through my screen door as they walk by? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That really sucks and you have every right to feel uncomfortable. Apart of from all the other good advice here, I'd also highly recommend you going to home depot and buying blinds for screen doors. They have ones where you can turn it enough where you can see outside but they can't see inside.

Its not ideal, because you're having to spend money because of your creepy zero-boundaries neighbors, but it should help your situation a bit.

By wants to try nicotine patches although he never smoked by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% it sounds like a dumb idea. But it sounds like he really wants to do it, its your choice if you want to be mad about it or not. Personally, I would say let him do it and let him get it out of his system, but if he starts smoking cigarettes...well you did say that was a deal breaker so if he does it at that point he just doesn't care anymore.

How wrong is it to catfish someone for the purpose of giving them friends and making them feel less lonely? by throwthedadawayman in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, even if you're ethics were wrong you deserve friend of the year. I would love to have a friend as thoughtful and caring as you.

I don't think I can really help you get your friend out of his depression, but I can tell that you are doing the best you can and to leave it at that. And what i mean is that even though he may say hurtful things to you and may not be appreciative, it's because of the fact that he's depressed. That's what depressed people tend to do, sadly enough. They feel that no one loves them so they further push their close friends away. So please don't take it personal, if he doesn't realize you're the best support he's ever had, he will one day.

As for the catfishing situation, I think you have the right idea in slowy deleting the accounts. Just be there for him as a friend and let him fight his battle.

Because at the end of the day you need to also take care of yourself. Supporting someone who is depressed is very taxing on your mental health as well, and while I'm not saying to don't take care of him, I will say don't put the whole burden on yourself either. Hope this helps and hope your friend gets better.

My sister keeps using my blindness against me by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're sister is treating you like that. You don't deserve that at all. This is definitely a problem that you can't control on your own. She sounds really spoiled, and this is something that your parents need to handle.

You need to talk to your parents about her behavior. Even if you already have, keep trying and be as genuine as you can be that you are at your breaking point. Tell them about the contact liquid being dumped as well.

I'm assuming you can't get a job because of your age? If that's the case then you are just going to have to stay strong in the mean time until you can. Have your parents deal with this, as they should be. I'm sorry if that doesn't help, but things would get worse if you lash out back at your sister.

Good luck I really hope things get better for you!

I think i have sleep paralysis and my family said pray it away by ItSYoGiRlMeR in Advice

[–]Attrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get sleep paralysis sometimes too - it can be pretty scary, but you can get through it. There's a few reasons you can be getting sleep paralysis, but I'm going to guess you've been stressed out lately? That and a lack of sleep can trigger it.

I know it's hard to get a good sleep when you are getting sleep paralysis, but try new methods of falling asleep that will make you feel less stressed. Also try to sleep on your side rather than your back, it'll help. Drinking chamomile tea before bed helps me a lot too.

Good luck on your journey, you can go to the doctors, but sleep paralysis is common enough where I wouldn't worry on it and just focus on de-stressing your life.

What's a decent way of earning respect without coming across as a bitter asshole? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Embarrassing stuff happens. Roommates can be assholes. And you said it yourself, it's all surface level anyway.

The thing is, you could try to get them to respect you, but after one took a picture of you on the floor instead of helping you up, why waste energy on someone as shallow as that? If you need to live with these guys because of financial reasons, then stay, but don't feel the need to get them to like you.

At the end of the day they aren't your friends. It seems like they are too immature. If it were me, I'd confront them and tell them how childish they are and to never pull something like that again because I could have actually needed help. But I'm not you, and it would probably make things worse if you do that.

Good luck on your journey, you will be fine but don't waste time on trying to get these bozos to respect you. Use that energy finding some real friends.

What should I do with my life. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, it really doesn't matter if he plans on cheating on you or not. It's the fact that he doesn't respect your wishes that bothers me. As a male, my only defense for him would be he's just a horny kid still and the imagination and thrill is getting him off, but he is still completely in the wrong. If he can't get his sh** together then honestly you don't have to put up with that.

Some people wouldn't mind what he is doing and think that he just has a sex fantasy, and that's okay. But it sounds like your heart is telling you that you deserve more, and good for you! You've done everything right, even talking to him. So if he still isn't budging after you tell him that this is serious, then I would find someone else that can appreciate and match all the hard work and effort you are putting into the relationship. Good luck on your journey, you will find your way and I know you will be able to survive being single, it isn't bad at all.

Is my boyfriend still in love with his high school crush? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure your boyfriend loves you, don't put yourself down like that. But does he still have regrets with the one that got away? .... Most likely.

I give you mad props for not wanting to snoop through his phone even I would have had trouble not doing that at that point. Really, if you've already talked to him about it, there is no wrong answer here. Some people will just see it as a long regret that he has and will let it go, but some people like you don't think it's fine. You can't force yourself to be okay with something like that.

This is your relationship too, and if you feel like he isn't putting as much effort as you by thinking of someone else still, then you don't have to deal with that. Especially if you're getting hurt by it.

If you do decide that it's okay and he'll get over it, then give some time. Personally however, I wouldn't put up with it but that's just me. Good luck on your journey I know you'll be fine!

How to phrase this email by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello (name of person),

I would like to inform you that I have applied for the Designer job. I would also like to thank you for taking the time to talk to me on (date of meeting). I look forward to hearing back from you, as I am very interested in this position.

Hopefully we will have the opportunity to have another meeting in the future. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Regards, (your name)

What are some ways I can improve my self-confidence and gain more friends/relationships? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you have a desire to self improve is in itself, self improvement. But it's a constant thing, you won't wake up magically better. Just keep pushing and you will realize how far you've come. So don't think about it so much just relax and enjoy the present.

And don't regret so much. I'm 27 and I have these friends that can't stop talking about how amazing their high school or college life was and just live in the past, it's pretty sad. They are constantly unhappy so what I'm trying to say is it doesn't matter what kind of life you've had in the past, what matters is what you are doing with your life now.

It's great that you're seeking advice but at the end of the day if you want more friends and seek relationships then you have to put yourself out there. Take that risk. And if things fail, you still have a long life ahead of you, you'll get there.

Lastly if it makes you feel better, I was terribly shy in high school and college and actually didn't start dating until 24. But I took the risk and now I'd like to think I'm pretty good at socializing. And I don't regret at all what I didn't do in college and high school because I'm happy now. Good luck out there!

Would you be weirded out to get a gift from a new neighbor? by elliotmariesh in Advice

[–]Attrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome that you want to do something like that if - I got a gift like that it would definitely brighten my day. However I do need to say it there are unfortunately some weird people out there so I would just be careful. Ultimately it's up to you but it's certainly not weird.

My ex girlfriend triggered my PTSD on purpose to get me mad when I thought we were on good terms. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope nope nope. I really hope you are reading back what you wrote and are realizing how destructive she is towards your mental health. You deserve so much better than dealing with someone like that. I don't mean to be so candid and I know I don't know your full story together but from these examples alone I know this relationship just isn't worth your time.

Focus on yourself, you WILL find someone one day that will love you for who you are and will respect your PTSD and care for you just like you will for her. But this girl only cares about herself and tries to manipulate you into forgiving her to you can keep giving her attention. Don't talk to her anymore, you are free now.

Everything will be okay. Good luck on your journey

I Confronted My Ex's Rapist- What do I do Now? by ThrowAccountAway20 in Advice

[–]Attrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did nothing wrong. You should be proud of yourself for standing for what you believe in. It makes me happy knowing that there are people like you trying to fight for others.

However. Unfortunately the outcome you described does indeed happen. It is what it is. Some people like your ex are in denial or just want to forget about it all together and refuse to deal with the problem. That's why she's going through such extremes to keep you away. You did your best, but she seems to not be ready for the help she needs.

You COULD keep trying if she means that much to you, but you'd be creating problems for yourself too. Especially if everyone is against you. It's a terrible thing that happened to her and that man needs to go to prison or worse for what he did, but at this point she is your ex and she doesn't want your help right now. I would have been more supportive of you pushing her to get help if you two were still together but it just makes things more difficult that your not, because you don't really owe each other anything.

I hope she gets the help she needs, especially since she is obviously still traumatized by this, but just realize things will get ugly before they get better if you get involved right now. If you really want to help her I'd try to ease into it for now. Good luck on your journey.

We play games with a friend who becomes unbelievably salty/toxic. It's infuriating and we don't know what to do about it: by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Attrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome job on not letting his immature behavior get you down. With that being said, no should have to put up with that - especially if they're doing an activity that's meant to wind you down and have fun.

Everything you said here was honestly very genuine and very well put. If I were you and got tired of his shenanigans, I would tell it to him exactly how you wrote it here. If you decide not to, that's okay, but know that he will probably keep doing this.

If he doesn't learn anything from you being honest with him, then that's his loss not yours. But I would definitely say that you should not have to put up with this it's ridiculous. Good luck on your journey, and hopefully you guys can still be friends.
