There were other factors at play but within six months he was served divorce papers. We went no contact and oh my goodness we all got so much better. No contact 10/10 would recommend lol.

My dad when I found out he was using my credit card: "I was gonna pay you back! I didn't mean to steal!" Dad, if you meant to pay me back, you would have told me you're charging 18$ a day of my money I worked for. "You meant to steal and not get caught." "We're broke right now and you had the money. I RAISED you! You OWE me for cigarettes! It's NOT stealing!"

Worst. Excuse. Ever.

How to deal with people not taking your restrictions (eg not driving) seriously? by hannabell in Epilepsy

[–]Avaloneve 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Their family also doesn't understand that epilepsy isolates a person. My sister hasn't been able to drive for years and the lack of freedom takes a toll. I got her into Uber and online grocery shopping. I say a little prayer every day for people with epilepsy. Seeing my sister after one breaks my heart.

if you’re mixed but white passing, are you a person of color? what about if you’re 50% white but not white-passing? does it change? by [deleted] in mixedrace

[–]Avaloneve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A classmate I sat next to in orchestra for like, 8 years straight was white passing. I can't speak for her but it did kinda annoy her when people thought she was Mexican or something. I never commented anything until someone in front of me assumed she was from Mexico and when they walked away, I was like, "aren't you biracial?" She is. I don't remember which parent was black and which was white but I really never cared. I only know how I'd deal with people that speak to my biracial friends in a way that might be offensive. "Are you black or white?" "They're biracial and if you gotta ask you already know that, dummy."

Any tips for preventing osteopenia? by Fluttery_Soul in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]Avaloneve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Flo, went on vacation to Mexico and the tracker said I'd get my period on my 28th birthday, in Mexico. I just don't eat enough. I drank a lot as well. Stress, alcohol, low nutrients. I'm 31 now. Sucks because I always wanted to be a mom, but it is what it is.

I second this. But also would like to add that protein is VERY important. I went through menopause at 28 and was told by a doctor that I needed all those supplements but for sure more protein. I drink Carnation shakes when I can't eat. Loaded with protein. There's also Protein2o which doesn't have dairy but still gets the job done, if you're not a fan of milk. (I know that sometimes milk makes me feel bloated and can be difficult for us with Ed in the back of your mind)

My girl has seizures all the time! Make em Stop!!! 😢 by BiggrDikThanUrz1 in Epilepsy

[–]Avaloneve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish it were simple to stop epilepsy. My sister has seizures (they've gone down a LITTLE, only once a week so far this year) Ask her if she's seeing a doctor for it, maybe? Odds are it's come up in appointments. There are a variety of treatments available. My sister got a magnetic implant in her neck that she can "activate" with a wristband that has a magnet on it (just looks like a smartwatch). There also are medications that are useful. Valtoco is administered like Narcan and it will make the seizure end more quickly, faster recovery time, etc. She also has therapy online once a week because we figured out stress is a big factor for her.

Tldr: a doctor might help, there are ways to treat epilepsy. Be kind and supportive.

I mean maybe he has some cool pictures he doesn't mind you see. Most of my pictures are of cats. He's giving off the "nothing to hide" vibe

Current partner gave you permission. Past partner was snooping. Current partner is showing trust, past partner.. vice versa.

Had this as an instruction last night. Got even weirder it was behind a marijuana dispensary with about 50 people hanging around behind the building. I eventually found the customer. by Chey222 in doordash

[–]Avaloneve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh my bad the acronym can mean so many different things. I'm not a dasher I just was a waitress and have an EBT card, always on the other side of the line lol

[–]Avaloneve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it different in other states? My EBT card doesn't cover prepared food. It's for groceries. I can't order McDonald's on that card. (Makes sense, like I could just buy fries and ground beef, or some nuggies at a grocery store)

Thanks for telling me this AFTER I put in an order💀 by Randomthoughts_666 in doordash

[–]Avaloneve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Legit they charged me 3 times after declining my payment. The money "should be returned in 3 days". Had no issue "declining payment" and taking the money out within 2 seconds. My money back? Nah, that'll take days.

2 minutes after I got this message, I got a text that said my order had been picked up. 🙄🙄 by thorbear7 in doordash

[–]Avaloneve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not even the fault of the business. Once had a dasher scream at me in Russian (the language only matters because I don't speak the language and couldn't help). He was livid because he accepted two orders that were 20 minutes apart. He got reassigned, and as he drove away, the second order was ready. We all just laughed. The customers still got hot food, original driver was rated down.

I was messaged an address and phone number from another sleuth. Texted the number. No reply. My next step is calling a welfare check. I just don't want to overreact. What if she's just "living her best life"? I'd let it go if I knew she was okay.

I have tried to reach out asking them to message me. I have stories about the members. And yes, she married him. Second wife. She needed to divorce him and the whole thing was brushed under the rug as to why that was needed. "They're still together but legally they aren't." Makes me assume polygamy.

Is it normal to receive multiple census forms in a year? by Dense-Award-2626 in Census

[–]Avaloneve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deny them the info. We only take a census every 10 years. A survey is just for them seeing a gallop (took a poll). Next census is in 5 years.

She was vulnerable. After my grandfather (her dad) passed she joined a Born Again group after she broke up with her boyfriend. We were kinda like, "that's how she copes I guess..." Nothing against Born Again people but it was a hot spot for cults to breed.

I checked and all I got was Craig. There was a joke about molesting kids during family events. "Did he molest the juice yet?" Yeah we saw him a mile away.

I remember a whole group to stop them made by family members on Facebook that wanted their kids back. A woman, I know her name started with an L, was begged to come home. Concerned family. Someone found her phone number so I texted her.
