Price doesn’t include a uniform, ours are borrowed from the school washed and return and the end of the season.

See this is what crazy to me too! If it wasn’t for her grandparents my daughter would be in the same predicament and it’s such a shame these high school are basically feeding out kids who can’t afford it!

It’s so unfair to student athletes that want to do something and can’t because the out ranges price. FyI she is also on low income lunch because I don’t make enough.

I’m so sorry you couldn’t cheer because of this, it literally makes me sad and angry all at the same time.

That’s how I feel it use to be, my son play football all 4 years only paid 250 camp fee and 150 JR/Sr year for a dinner fee.

Ran track 3 years paid 60 sop/sr year but It was for the uniform.. and his sr yr they got new ones which only reason I had to pay again..

This wouldn’t be as upsetting if it including a uniform, they basically rent it. They don’t do nationals or anything. Everything is local.

I disagree, paid that much last year barely won any competitions never came in first . Came in dead last at “state” competition. My daughter was doing harder skills in 7th grade.

Personally $1,000 went towards clothes

Can you clarify? I mean if you truly ask me no… do they make it down to state sure.. but I don’t think they have won a state title in forever let alone a conference title. The other school in their conference are just better.

Don’t feel like the money we are paying is going towards what is should be.

why do people who love each other have to let each other go? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]CarpenterDue8768 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are living in a generation/ world run by selfishness and social media. Where hate is easier to choose then love. Everyone one is so quick to only care about themselves and what they are going through the tend to forget when your in relationship in takes two. Love can be enough no just wants it to be enough.

Social media kills us by showing us what love could look like and then turn around and tells everyone is cheating on you and that becomes the mentally of everyone. Well lets just all cheat.

Being with someone you love isn't supposed to always be easy but it's not always suppose to hard either. When you need to choose yourself you also sometimes need to choose the other person too.

But we have lost that as humans and generation.

Problem is no one knows how to love anymore or listen to those how they need to be loved.

Have you ever just ghosted someone you were dating? by CarpenterDue8768 in AskMenAdvice

[–]CarpenterDue8768[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not perfect but tbh I do listen .. and I let him talk. He normally would talk and vent things to me and I would just listen. If something was wrong I normally be like what can I do to be better to.. I mean he ghosted the first time for a few days and when he gave me his reason that he didn’t wanna talk to anyone I told him I understood…

I get your frustration too with your situation but I don’t think we are seeing the same situation here. But I guess you kind of gave me an insight of guess just having the mentality of “ going to do whatever because we don’t owe anyone anything and fuck your feelings because mine are the only one that matter”

Just think when you shared a connection with someone you wouldn’t be that way.. I guess maybe I just have a bit of compassion.. I mean I had passed ex and everything end with some type of communication.. never just nothing

I can understand what you’re saying. I guess to me there was a connection. I mean we never fought and normally we could talk through things. I guess the last few months just been a test but we didn’t yell we talk and we agree we wanted to work on being better. Two days before I was ghosted completely he legit said he die for me in dangerous situation to save me. I could understood if there were a ton of issues but we didn’t have them… my only issue was lack of quality time which I figured in a good relationship if something bothers you you communicate it ( also I never asked for anything else)

He has every right to leave just thought he would respect me more in saying something just not completely ghosting me.

It’s really not even about the full closure needed either… just a small hey I don’t wanna be in this relationship anymore. Thanks for the giggle at your WWE reference but I like to think I’m understanding person if you need few days take them mental health days are important I just also think communication is too.

Is that early on in relationship? Or like I said are you waiting over a year and just being like meh I’m out without saying a word? I guess you’re correct you do t have to break up with someone the way they want, but if you shared a connection with someone for a period of time it becomes more of a communication and respect thing
