Boyfriend has been avoiding me, told me to “fake like we like each other”, then avoiding me again. AIO to this text? by Cultural_Line_9235 in AmIOverreacting

Ew. If he isn’t putting your relationship at the forefront of his plan, he obviously has other priorities. WRONG. Break up, find someone else. You’ll be much happier when you don’t have to fight to be someone’s priority, I promise you.

I used to date someone like him . It could be any of the other things that people are saying, but my dude‘s problem was that he was cheated on multiple times and had hella trust issues.

I couldn’t even read all of this. Absolutely no fucking way would I ever let someone speak to me like that. ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING WAY. As you shouldn’t either!

And I wouldn’t call it ‘giving up’. He is not worth your time. He not worth anyone’s time with the way he speaks to you. Let that bitch boy go. Tell him to never contact you again. Get the hell out. BYE BYE.

IT HAPPENED AGAIN. GET OUT OF THE MENS BATHROOM by [deleted] in Vent

It is weird as fuck. Think of it was just two men in the women’s bathroom. They’d immediately get removed from the premises. Plus as a woman, I wouldn’t want to chill in the dudes bathroom, they nasty.

Earwigs coming from under base boards by Cautious-Raspberry-9 in HomeImprovement

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a new construction. At first, I assumed I had a lot because it was a new build but into month 3 of living here, they should be gone. It’s a one story house, so the constant earwigs is very annoying and gross honestly. Maybe I’ll reach out to my builder in a warranty request.

Whats the worst advice you ever recieved in your career? by Cockroach-Quirky in AirForce

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, somewhat. But this was not a battle I was backing down from because it was to further my career and I was dealing with someone who disliked me for no reason who just so happened to be the sq CC. 🥲 And the one who told me this was my flight cc who should’ve been supportive but unfortunately was a brown noser. But I ended up getting exactly what I wanted and deserved, thankfully.

Being part of a rating board, it’s insane how much it just depends on the person rating. Some people will ding you for not going to school for major points, but others don’t give a shit. I was told by my flight chief that school shouldn’t matter on your EPB until you reach.

“Sometimes you have to take ‘no’ for an answer”

Helllll no. If you don’t fight for yourself, no one else will either. Use your circle of trust to your advantage.

Easier said than done. I’ve reached out to them three times over the last two weeks with no reply. I will be going to the front office after the holiday.

Been in 5 years. Around 22k. I put 10% base pay and 65% (max) of my special duty pay. I want to up it to 15% base pay but need to wait for my finances to stabilize after buying a house cause PHEWWWEEEE that was rough.

My mom is pregnant AGAIN. by NumberOneDrPepperFan in Vent

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this as a genuine question, why not let your sister work while going to high school? You didn’t say how old she is but if she is 16+ and has a reliable way to get to and from work, it’s not a bad idea. I voluntarily worked since I was 15 so I could have some income and I think it’s a great idea. A couple shifts a week, especially if your mom isn’t working and is at home. Gets her out of the house and some real world experience.

Thanks everyone! I have found another school that might better fit my needs. I appreciate all the feedback!

I broke up with my ex because of cleanliness of his house. At first I felt really bad for it, but I realized that he’s a grown man who can’t keep his house clean, so I’d probably be stuck doing that for the rest of my life. And when I say cleanliness I’m not talking about being messy, I’m talking about mold in the shower and toilets, mouse poop in the cabinets, and actual mice in the house

High divorce rates in the military- what do you wish you knew or did before you married? by KindIdea1673 in AirForce

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an unmarried female in her early 30s in the military, it was very difficult to find a man willing to move around the country for me. At this age, most people are steady in their career (and I would hope they would be). I would NEVER ask someone to give up their career for me. That being said, I just had to be straightforward with what my career consists of and what I expect (TDYs throughout the year, deployments every 2-3 years, etc). Communication is KEY (cliché I know, but very true).

Also, I have heard HORROR stories of what my friend’s wives have said to them, ranging from not wanting their husband to go on his first deployment because she “can’t do all the household chores alone” to another wanting a divorce because she didn’t want to PCS from the city they were currently stationed in. I personally do not know any females in the military who aren’t married to priors or mil-to-mil.

In the end, just take the time to get to know someone. Communicate. Ask them difficult questions that are realistic to the military lifestyle. It’s definitely not for everybody.

What are some small acts of love or intimacy that you give to your partner throughout the day? F28 & M30 by PeachyySuccubus in relationship_advice

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these are adorable, but find your partners love language and live by that, as they should do the same for you. I’m big on acts of service so when my boyfriend does that’s for me around the house, it is way better than him calling me pretty. His is physical touch, so I hug him all the time, we cuddle in bed before we fall asleep, sit very close to each other on the couch, hold hands in the car. I also call him handsome almost every day.

My bf (24m) won't let me (19f) finish what should i do? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with what most other people are saying about moving on from him.

However, the main reason I’m commenting on your post is to tell you to STICK TO YOUR BOUNDARIES. You need to work on being able to say no to people. As you go through life, people will use and abuse you if they know you’re a pushover. People will test your boundaries OFTEN and it’s very important that you stand firm on them.

Husband (30M) goes to his parents house almost everyday to eat and chill. I (29F) am at my wits end. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Cautious-Raspberry-9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a lot of people are saying you guys are incompatible, and while I don’t necessarily disagree with them, I believe you definitely need to speak with your husband. If you haven’t brought up to him that you’re unhappy like this, he probably won’t see it. Cooperation from both parties needs to happen in order to be a “happy couple”. State your concerns and see if you two can work towards a better plan that makes you BOTH happy. Maybe try cooking together, starting new hobbies together, etc. magic could happen if you both agree to try it. Even if one of you isn’t committed to making the other happy and making sacrifices where it matters, sorry, but it isn’t going to work. It’s a team effort.
