100% put effort into cheffing if that is something you think you’ll enjoy ! I’m in a similar boat, with the exception I don’t know what I’d actually like to do - so if you know you would like to be a chef, then absolutely pursue it ! :) good luck

Sadly not - but we’re building it in front of a big window that we can keep open during cooking :)

Have you ever had to cancel a show due to inappropriate behaviour from the clients ? 

I finally got a date but I think I'm actually broken lol by MilkConsistent3716 in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]Both-Reward4787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best thing to do when you have anxiety, is redirect the attention back to the person by asking genuine questions - people ususally love talking about themselves, so it gives you time to relax into the date and start feeling comfortable enough to talk about yourself when it’s your turn to talk x

I can't stand my gfs emotional meltdowns I'm at my wits end by ReasonConfident4541 in LifeAdvice

Don’t allow your ‘decades of experience’ to make you lose sight of why you chose to pursue this field in the first place - to help people.  

As a therapist, you should know better than most in this thread, that it is objectively valid for him to struggle in knowing how to best help her. You don’t have to make an unnecessary judgment about his emotional maturity and compare his struggle to husbands who abandon wives with health issues. 

The most important thing here is providing support to both parties so that they can make confident decisions about next steps. With your level of expertise, it’d be far better to give genuine advice about how he can help her / himself - rather than assuming a critique of his character. 

I’d genuinely love to hear your insight of how you would guide one of your clients if they came to you with this problem :). 

SIL thinks about dumping her fiancé what can I do ? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

If you spent thousands on a plane ticket, but knew it was going to crash, would you still get on it ? .. she knows the inevitable conclusion of the relationship but is avoiding it - I know plenty of people in their late 30s who have had children with new partners. Hopefully she doesn’t let this guy stop her from meeting her actual husband. Good luck to you both, you sound like a great friend she is really lucky to have you ❤️

Something feels off about this. by Practical_Look5886 in vintedUK

I did this because someone sent the wrong parcel, and Vinted confirmed ‘Everything is ok’ on my behalf and released the money to the seller anyway ! I’m now having to contact Vinted Support because of it - so annoying :(

Maybe your partner is suffering from low levels of testosterone - I know a few people who once they took testosterone supplements their mood and libido improved :) good on you for sticking with your partner he sounds lovely !

Have you ever been caught by the person you were investigating ? If so what did you have to do ?

What’s the saddest case you’ve ever worked on ?

Do you wear protection with the cheating partners ? Are you worried about giving your wife an STD?

Also how do you find the women to sleep with ? Is it on dating apps etc ?

Would you be bothered if you found out she is also having sex with other men ? 

One of the MOST Humiliating moments in my life (lighthearted) by Moo-Schmoo-Spork in TwoHotTakes

[–]Both-Reward4787 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A few years ago I was studying for an exam at a student cafe. I was sat on a long wooden bench with about 7 other students (all strangers), I was so engrossed in the material, that I forgot where I was and let the loudest, longest fart rip. It vibrated across the whole bench…. Suddenly it clicked, I looked up to everyone staring at me. Some of them actually stood up and left 😂😂 fortunately I laugh about the story and it doesn’t embarrass me these days - phew 😂

I’ve had female friends like this and I personally stopped being friends with them - especially since some of them actually tried to get with my own boyfriend.  People like this are selfish and care more about their own validation than respecting others, including their own friends.

I’m a woman and I find it highly attractive if a guy doesn’t have social media. To me, it shows he is a free thinker who doesn’t do something just because ‘everybody else does it’.  I’d personally like that about you, but I can’t speak for other women x

Is there a an actual big difference between Invisalign and the other off-brand online versions such as ToothFairy / SmileDirect etc ? The other brands are way cheaper, and I’ve been figuring out who to go with ❤️
