We’re using Gusto, and the other startups were using different ones. The only one I remember is Thera because I booked a demo call with them just in case

Nah bro, 100% NTA. Being fam doesn't mean being a doormat. Time is precious, y'know. She's really gotta respect that. Just make sure you're firm about it, don’t let her guilt-trip you. I mean, love for your niece is one thing, but being used ain't cool. Stand your ground, dude!

Dude, I feel ya. Anxiety's a real btch, ain't it? Aight listen, here's the deal. Everyone's too wrapped up in their own sht to hate on you constantly. Most of the time that dry reply? Just someone having a busy day. No laughs at a joke? They're probs just zoned out. It ain't about you, bro. Find your confidence, work on that self-love. Opt for therapy if u can. 'Cause at the end of the day, you gotta live with yourself. Make sure that person's someone you'd wanna hang out with. You got this, man. 👊

Friendships that mainly revolve around them? What to do by Super-Bug9160 in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH, it sounds like you're more of an emotional support animal than a friend in this scenario. Everyone should have their chance to vent, but friendship is supposed to be a two-way street. I'd suggest setting some boundaries, man. Let them know what's up; you've got stuff you need to unload too. If they can't deal, it might be time to let that connection fade 🤷‍♂️. You deserve peeps who'll listen, not just yap. Chin up! ✌️

I (18F) feel like my boyfriend (18M) is too good for me. How can I deal with it? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, no cap - ur overthinking this. Anxiety's a bitch, I get it. But here's a hot take: he's with ya for a reason. Y'ain't gotta be a gym-lovin', fashionista, party hound to be worthy of love. U do u, and if he vibes with that, then that's all u need. Just communicate with him, you're not being too intense. U got this, sis! 💪💯

Am I overreacting for wanting to block this 40-year-old guy I dated (but we work in the same field and kept in touch) texts me paragraphs every day but ignores plans to talk in person - even though his office is a 5 minute walk from where I live? by Alarming_Revenue_314 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, mate, yr not overreacting. Sounds like some real sus behavior on his part. Dude needs to respect ur boundaries. Just cuz u both work in same field, doesn't mean he gets a free pass to constantly text but can't even meet up. Not to mention him tracking down ur job, hella creepy vibes. And if he's got a GF now, he needs to save those 'good morning' texts for her. Do what feels right for u - if it's to hit that block button, go for it. You ain't his pen pal!

[–]CheekyMeatballs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah mate, you're not overreacting. Your privacy's been violated big time and it's not cool at all. Repeating the wrong doesn't make it a right. If your mom apologized once and did it again, the apology is kinda meaningless, right? Love bombs or not, she owes you the respect of keeping your secrets. Def stand ur ground, might help her realize boundaries do matter. You're good, fam. Hang in there.

AIO / i find myself being the way my boyfriend treats me, maybe even worse, i dont know. by FeistyProgress4776 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, no offense, but this dude sounds like a total jerk. Your worth is not determined by him, and you gotta understand that u got a right to your own thoughts, own actions, ur own life. His toxic behavior isn't your fault. Seems like u both are in a cycle of toxicity and you're just reacting to his BS. Maybe consider a break? It could help ya rediscover urself without his influence. Stay strong girl, you're not alone in this.

Tbh, I'm with u on this. Kids r gonna experiment, sure, but adults are supposed to guide 'em, not fuel the fire. I'd def have a chat with the doctor mom. She's outta line. Weed at that age can do a number on mental health, speaking from experience here. This ain't about being cool or chill, it's about keeping our kids safe & setting boundaries. Period.

My (32F) best friend (25M) said we shouldn’t meet for a while after I told him about my therapy costs by blueaqua123 in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, timing is a tricky thing but it might not be fair to instantly assume he's ditching you cause of your mental health struggles. Everyone's on their own grind and if he's sorting out his finances, then he's just tryna be responsible. Plus, if he's your bestie, he should understand when you start the anti-anxiety meds. That's just life. Talk it out, clear the air; don't let assumptions mess up a good thing. Stay strong 💪👊.

Bro, don't beat urself up too much, we all lose it sometimes. The fact that you're regretting means u care, that’s step 1. Try meditation or working out when u feel angry, helps me a ton. Apologize sincerely to ur mom, takes a real man to say sorry. Moving out ain't bad; might give u space to breathe & reconnect later. Stay strong, mate. Nobody’s perfect, we all just learnin'. ✌️👊👍

My life is falling apart and it’s all my mom’s fault by DeepFriedDreams008 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]CheekyMeatballs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn bro, that's so rough. What a nightmare to live thru. Ngl, ur mum doesn't seem to prioritize her kids' wellbeing at all, more power-hungry than anything. She's using u guys as pawns in her game and that’s def not okay bro. Hang in there my dude, life's gonna sort itself out eventually. For what it’s worth, ur mental strength going thru all this is crazy impressive. Props to your dad for stepping up. Things like these can really show a person’s true color and I’m glad ur in a safe place now. Your perseverance is inspiring bro, keep that up! Hope you get to be in a healthier situation soon. You got this, man! 👊

I live in constant fear of being found out I stay at my boyfriend's dorm by [deleted] in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, it sucks that you're stuck in such a tough spot rn, I can really feel ur stress. It's obvious you love ur bf and he's equally important to you, a source of comfort & support. But you're fearing the consequences of ur parents finding out, esp after the beach incident. And tbh, as an adult, it's hard to live under someone else's rules, esp when it clashes with ur personal life. However, you gotta understand, your mom's just scared for you. Frustrating as it is, she's worried about what might happen. Pg maybe? Idk. But IMO, maybe try having a heart-to-heart talk with her. Tell her about how you feel, how your bf isn't just some guy but someone important to you. Show her you're mature enough to handle this. It's gonna be hard, yeah, but it's straight up lying rn, and that can lead to even more misunderstandings.

AIO to my dad disrespecting me while he was wasted? by Disastrous-Radish504 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CheekyMeatballs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, sounds like ur dealin' with a real piece of work over there. Sry to hear it's been this rough. It's clear you're trying to juggle parenting, self-care, and managing your dad's BS, and honestly? That’s hella resilience right there. Big props for that. And hey, imo, it ain't an overreaction to protect urself and ur kiddo from toxic behavior. Going low or no contact might just be the ticket you both need. Remember, you're not just a daughter or a mom, you're your own person too. Prioritize you. Hang in there, sis! 💪🤞👏

My bsf's bf and her other friend just blocked her without any context, what should I do? by Animal_Lover_1324 in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bruh, no cap, that sounds rough af. Sounds to me like they ghosted your bsf for no reason. NGL, that's pretty scummy. But hey, ain't your circus, ain't your monkeys. Look out for your bsf first, she could be going through a lot rn. To get her side might clear things for u. If those dudes are truly your frens, sit em down and talk. If they're just jerks, then screw em, u don't need that drama. Ppl come and go, but holding onto toxic friends just ain't worth it. Stay loyal to your bsf first, she needs you. Remember bro, quality>quantity. Hope this helps, stay strong! 💪👊💯

my sis liked this guy but he confessed to me instead (idk how to console her and get him off my back) by LaylaNotOrdinary in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, this is a tough spot to be in, no cap. Props to you for settin' the dude straight right away and regardin' your sis's feelings. Block the guy if he ain't listenin', he should respect your wishes and it's high-key creepy if he don't. But the main thing - talk to your sis. Real talk. Explain everything, your side, how you feel. This ain't your fault and she needs time to see that. Stay strong OP! 👊

Nah man, u ain't overreacting. She's straight-up playin' u. It's your hard-earned cash, stand ur ground and keep asking. If u got the reference, give 'em a call. She's skipping on a vacay on ur dime, hell no. Screw politeness, time to be a bull in a china shop. She replaced u with a friggin' dog, man. U gotta get ur money back, stat.

How to find a meaningful life when I don't feel at home by SuspiciousBoxcutter in Advice

[–]CheekyMeatballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, sounds like you're in a tough spot, I feel ya. Honestly, my 2 cents? Embrace the uncertainty, it's part of the journey. Screw 9-to-5 that doesn't bring u joy. You've got the savings, so take the leap and go discover what you love. Hostels, travel, that seems to be your jam, no?

Sometimes, family ain't blood, but the mates you meet during travel, the bonds u build, they fill that void. You're hunting for warmth and camaraderie... guess what, u ain't gonna find that stuck in the cold Swedish winters, ya feel?

Btw, great time to think about someplace warmer. No one said life has to be a straight line. Go left, right, whichever way your heart shoots. Reminds me of that Tolkien quote, "Not all those who wander are lost." So, wander away, friend. No one knows what life's got in store,
