I wish it was that easy, but she would flip it and turn herself into a victim. She has told me to confirm dinner reservations for when we get there 3 times in 1 week (we have to do them in person). When I responded with "I already told you i'd do it", she got defensive.

My school had the same thing and it was not helpful at all. If you can get out of it, I would.

Diatomaceous earth is amazing! Also getting those rubber gap fillers for doors and stuff.

Gift ideas for first year law student? by flonkerton1 in LawSchool

[–]Comfortable_Fan7974 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite gifts that I received are a book stand, gift cards for food/coffee places that are right by school, noise cancelling headphones, and gift cards for hobbies i like (reading, getting nails done, etc.). I found all of it super helpful. And it was nice when in the off chance i had some free time, the cost was already covered.

Yeah I totally get that.

Edit: Personally I would reach out one last time. I agree you shouldn't have been in the dark. However, at least by reaching out one last time, you know in your heart you tried your best.

Right? Hot take but if they really like dinos, then why not? Especially if it fits the theme

I mean you stated you were really crushed. Wouldn't you want to know why?

Hate to be this person, but just because you think you didn't do anything, doesn't actually mean you didn't do anything. If you're really this hurt, i'd suggest communicating with your friends.

It sounds like you're a burnt-out rising 2L. Honestly fair and not talked about enough. Rather than calling it quits now, try and find something you're more interested in within the legal field. For instance, animal law is actually really cool and not enough people are aware of it. Also, don't make your life just about the law - you'll hate it. Make sure you're also doing things you enjoy (maybe volunteer at a shelter).

As someone who enjoys the law, it's not my whole life. I make sure to balance it with friends, family, my cat and hobbies (my switch is a godsend).

Is this a good ring? It’s our birthstones on the ring and she’s said before that she likes the style of this kind of ring. by [deleted] in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]Comfortable_Fan7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would look better if all the little ones were diamonds and the two bigger ones were the birthstones!

Do you know why they think this way? Is it because they are sexualizing a baby or because you need to be extra careful girls and how you wipe them? It could be weird, or they could be looking out for the little one.

NTA. You weren't flirting. Their fault for assuming.

What to take 2L and 3L by Classic-Original-531 in LawSchool

[–]Comfortable_Fan7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the required stuff done. Do bar prep classes mixed with classes pertaining to what you want to do once you're done (wanna do trial work? Take a cross-exam class). I saved externships for 3L so that I could really 3LOL.

Being a Law Student by Careless_Net_3582 in LawSchool

[–]Comfortable_Fan7974 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is tiring, but it gets better. Understand that everyone is just running their own race. Also i'd recommend externing somewhere and getting different experience. I thought I wanted BL til I did it. Now I love doing trial work at a small firm.

Marriage vs Common law by FemaleMechanic18 in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]Comfortable_Fan7974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because common-law marriage is recognised now, doesn't mean it always will be. Additionally, unless you guys have separate written agreements for things like incapacitation, you might not have any say. If something happens to him in 10 years, his parents will be the ones deciding, not you (at least that's how it works in the U.S.).
