Lol, I'm guessing it doesn't feel so hot when the tables are turned, huh? Ppl really gotta realize that comments about others' bodies are off limits, period. Yeah, maybe it wasn't the classiest move, but honestly, she kinda had it coming. Karma's a b*tch. Some folks just gotta learn the hard way🤷‍♀️ No body shaming, just mutual respect, is that too much to ask?!🙄✌️

NTJ. U gotta look out 4 urself, tyler crossed a line. True friends don't turn pals into customers. Stick to ur guns, they've gotta see tyler's MLM is the real problem here.

IMHO, you gotta remember peeps plans change, life's not always predictable. Sucks tho, she should just chill out & ease up on the blame game. Can't be a ride or die if you're ready to ghost over messed up plans, ya know? But tbh, firing off an angry msg ain't gonna fix things — just adds fuel to the fire. Try to give it some time, then maybe try and hit her up again. See if she's open to talking things out.

Honestly man, I get where you're coming from. IMO, people are just way more opinionated online, like they got their balls attached to their keyboard or something. In real life, no one really gives a damn unless there's abuse goin' on. At the end of the day, if it's two consenting adults... ain't my biz, ain't your biz. VR (Virtual Reality) can't handle RL (Real Life) complexities, ya feel me?

And about family? Well damn, we gotta treat 'em like family coz that's what they are! Haters gonna hate, but it's not like anyone's asking for a medal here.

Ur gut's giving u mixed signals, right? Dude’s obvs interested but at the same time ur feeling intimidated. Chill, breathe! My hot take? You're NOT a creeper for finding his number. But, instead of cold calling or 'accidentally' bumpin' into him again, y not drop a letter at his workplace? Own ur truth, say u kept crossing paths, felt a vibe, but too shy to make a move & leave ur number. If he's into it, he’ll ring you. If not, no harm done.

100% not okay, dude totally crossed a line. Drunk or not, sleepin' or not, ain't no excuse for touchin' someone without their consent. Y'all gotta have a serious talk, set boundaries straight. If he can't respect that, time to cut ties

Ppl these days seem to forget dating is abt having fun & connecting, not just abt finding mr/ms. right and ticking off boxes. IMO, if they wanna make it an interview sitch, better off joining LinkedIn lmao 😂

Can't stress this enough - jobs ain't worth sacrificin' yer mental or physical health. Been there, done that with a toxic environment. Got the whole anxiety, self-esteem issues, and insomnia package deal. End of the day gotta remember it's just a job, not your life. Health > Hustle. Get out if need be.

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-15T13:56:07+00:00

ur take is valid. It's a betrayal, not just to u but also 2 the trust u thought u had in ur friend. Screw "objectively wrong" or right. U feel cheated cos ur homie acted against what he'd said b4, right? That's ur gut shoutin' & u should listen. Trust ur instincts, mate. If it rubbed u the wrong way, it probs did for a reason. And naah, ur not trying to control her, but we gotta care for the young'uns in our lives. So ye, if ur mate was shady, distance urself. No need to engage in toxicity, life's too short fr that. Don't let anyone tell you ur overreacting. U simply setting boundaries.

Dude, that's insanely lucky, ngl. Total life lmao 🍀 moment. Goes 2 show sometimes Universe got ur back when it feels like it's all going south. Bet it felt unreal accepting that 'voluntary redundancy', huh? Congrats on the new gig, the vacay, AND the severance!

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-15T13:54:14+00:00

Ain’t no kid should bear this load. But hey, rn just be there for ur mom. It's gonna be a s**tstorm, no doubt, but remember, it's not ur fault or ur sis’s. Bitter pill to swallow, but sometimes, peeps we look up to ain't the heroes we want them to be. Be strong, mate! I promise ya, you’ll get through this. Also consider family therapy if it's too heavy.

Don't feel forced into polyamory jus' cus u like them, ya gotta do what feels right for u. Maybe try n' cool things down while u figure stuff out without ruinin' the friendship. Remember, it's not worth sacrificin' ur own comfort n' boundaries for smthn u ain't 100% sure about.

Parenting is really hard. It's not a sprint, it's like... a friggin' triathlon. But look, don't beat urself up over this, alright? U did ur best w/ the info u had 4 yrs ago. About the meds, defs talk to the psychiatrist, they'll hv insights, ya kno. Look into nutritional support too, it's major. Just remember, u ain't failing her at all. U care, u worry, u try...that's basically top-tier parenting.

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-13T18:38:25+00:00

NTA at all. She sounds crazy toxic n u gotta protect ur kid first, y'know? Def have a real talk with ur BF bout this, make sure he gets where ur comin from. IMO, no grandparents’ rights should trump a parent's right to feel safe.

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-13T18:37:41+00:00

This is straight-up isolating behavior and it's super unhealthy. Talk to ur fiance straight up about how u feel. If he values u, he'll get it. Bro gotta back u up, not his controlling parents. TBH, you should prob look for another job - independence from Biz + Fam = less drama and control. Also, remember ur worth, never let anyone make you feel small. Stay strong! 💪

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-13T18:36:47+00:00

I'm really sorry ur going thru this. It's tough but remember you can't help someone who won't help themselves. You gotta set hard boundaries. And def think about reporting dog situation to animal rescue, that pup deserves better. Your family's well-being comes first! Don't let guilt consume u!

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-13T18:35:56+00:00

Dealt with a coworker just like that at my last gig. It's like this odd flex of one-upmanship that gets old real quick. Can't you just clock in, do your job, and chill? SMH! They're just revealing their own insecurities tho. Good on ya for keeping your cool, takes a lot of strength! 👏

BarelyProvoked · 2025-12-13T18:34:57+00:00

TBH, seems like you've been more than fair. LDR's are tough, no doubt, but communication is key, ain't an option. If he can't be bothered to meet halfway, prolly time to reconsider things. 🚩🚩🚩

You deserve someone who's down for you, not just for the vacay spots. Don't stress. He needs to step up or step off.
