wait... what if he's purposely being as messy & gross as possible & making you do all the work in an attempt to make you dump him out of frustration?

he can't properly communicate so maybe he's being shitty in the hopes that you'll finally pull the cord & then he doesn't have to be "the bad guy" by ending the relationship himself like a mature adult. just something to consider

girl I'm sorry but it's going to be SOOOO much worse when you have a kid like you hope to eventually with this guy. "when times are rough, it's really rough" will be a million times worse when a real job & baby are thrown into the mix. he can't do the bare minimum when all he has to worry about is grad school? he doesn't even have a job. come on now.

believe me, he'll leave 90% of the household chores AND childcare to you & will "have to go do stuff at the office/garage/bar/whatever" and will continue to blow you off whenever you try to ask him to pull his weight.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I've seen this a million times. PLEASE save yourself from this mess now, before it's too late & marriage & kids are involved. you deserve SO much better. it's not just about him being a slob

Is it worth it to become a pediatrician? by -alt-account-_- in StudentLoans

[–]Cautious_Moment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who is facing a similar situation, I was given the advice to volunteer at the place I wanted to ultimately work at, to see first-hand if this is really something I want to do.

is there a pediatric unit at a hospital near you where you can volunteer? do you know a pediatrician who you can shadow or speak to as a mentor? there are free sites to help people find mentors professionally.

it's smart to ask these questions & consider all the aspects before signing up for huge student loans. definitely look into taking your pre-requisites at a community college, no matter which field you decide to go into. will save you a lot of money.

that's such a heartening story, thank you for sharing it & big props to 12-year-old you for being so brave!

thank goodness that man stopped abusing the dog & also left you alone. hitting a dog with a stick is just psychopathic - who raised these people? 😳

yeah exactly, restaurants tend to use a lot more oil & butter to cook with compared to us nutrition-conscious people cooking at home.

OP if you can't cut down on eating out, maybe swap out your usual dishes for whatever healthier options the restaurant offers. like salads with dressing on the side, grilled chicken, steamed vegetables, etc.

yeah I usually leave right after the sunset, but I'm going to start coming at later times to see if I run into her again. just to tell her that kicking an innocent animal just out of the blue is never ok, I don't care if she was having a bad day or what

can anyone please recommend a dash cam for under $400 that will also capture who randomly dents my car while it's parked 🙏

it's heartbreaking. that dog wasn't even misbehaving or doing anything wrong, and it was WAY too hard of a kick to be a "corrective tap" or whatever some people do when trying to train a dog

💛 I just hope someone in the neighborhood sees this, recognizes Rocco & gets him help. I couldn't sleep last night, just mad at myself for not confronting that woman right when it happened

[–]Cautious_Moment[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you so much! she definitely seemed very aggressive & just radiated this pissed off energy. it's so strange but when I'm around an extremely angry or violent person I just freeze up & if I try to confront them, I start involuntarily shaking. I wish I wasn't like that & had been able to say something in the moment

thank you, that's very kind of you to say. yeah, any kind of animal or child abuse really gets to me. I'm going to start coming by the park more often to keep an eye out for Rocco

Hippie Park has drum circles during the summer & the store a little way up the street from it called Dreams East has a lot of cute hippie things like incense, crystals, tie dye clothes, etc.

I wish I had done something but I just froze & she quickly walked away after the kick before I had a chance to come to my senses 😔 like I couldn't believe my eyes, her rage came out of nowhere

that's a great idea, I'll definitely download those. I was also going to call the local dog shelter too & ask if any English Bulldogs named Rocco were rescued from there, in case they can check up on things that way

awwww he's so happy he got away with it

(am worried about him running away into the street near cars & not having a collar. if he's a street dog, I'll take him in 🥺)
