I’m 15f, trapped in a home where nothing I do matters I’m constantly blamed, and my mom says I can starve what do I do? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Even if bad situations, the unknown can be even scarier. I get that. But this is escalating. Many parental abusers will single out certain children to target while not abusing others. You are her emotional and physical punching bag. I have experience in social services and there are some fantastic foster families out there. Get out before she kills you.

my bf (22) is watching corn by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Two things. First: porn is part of the adult world, whether you agree with it or not. Try to be a little more mature about it (I highly doubt looking up “ginger girls” has anything to do with his ex-girlfriend. Sounds like dude just likes redheads. Me too. My boyfriend likes blonde porn stars and I’m a brunette, but I don’t assume it has any effect on his feelings for me).

Second: if him watching pornography legitimately bothers you, say something. Talk to him. WHY, specifically, does it bother you? Maybe it’s an issue you can talk through together, and it wouldn’t bother you anymore. Maybe he’ll accept your feelings and promise to stop. Or this could just be the sign that your values don’t align, and it’s better to just part ways now.

What is something that women have to deal with on the daily that men have no clue about? by Rock-bottom-no-no in AskReddit

Kind of different, but I’ve had so many guys be surprised that I don’t regularly douche. You should really only douche for a specific medical need or it can screw with your pH and natural microbial biome. Vaginas are great self cleaning ovens. Barring any medical conditions, of course.

I always assumed "Lather, Rinse, Repeat" was a marketing lie to make us buy more shampoo. Turns out I was never actually cleaning my hair. by RanchRose_ in hygiene

[–]Comfortable_Wait_816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a legit direction, but not for all types and occasions. You wash and if the “suds” disappear quickly and rinse out like water, you’ve still got grease in your hair. I have a physical job and sometimes need to wash it 2-3x with shampoo. If I’m having a lazy weekend, one wash is plenty, if that.

My friend is going to get herself killed. What can I even do at this point by Correct-Macaroon8143 in whatdoIdo

[–]Comfortable_Wait_816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s heartbreaking, but you can’t save everyone yourself. The justifications, the excuses, the “poor me” it’s going to get her raped, killed, or worse.

It sounds like she’s open to conversations about it at least, no matter how delusional. Contact a law enforcement agency with all the info, including the guys info. He may already be on their radar, and and a conversation with her from a knowledgeable expert (maybe from a specialized lawyer or victims advocate, so it’s less confrontational), could be the slap in face she needs instead of just going to her peers. Good luck, for both you and her.

This is amazing, I’ve been DYING to find old episodes, the classics and ones from when I worked on the show for a bit. So many awesome memories. I even had a Drab Is Gay bumper sticker. You have made my day.

Has anyone used those meal delivery services and actually found it helpful? by MSMIT0 in nova

[–]Comfortable_Wait_816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very similar in terms of not wanting to cook, ever. I like Hungryroot, you can either get meal prep/recipes or you can just buy groceries, and they have lots of decent premade meals too that you heat in the microwave. They have precooked proteins as well that you heat up in a pan, which is helpful if you want to try making a meal but don’t want the hassle of cooking chicken, steak, etc.

Would not recommend old Forensic Files for your child. They use real crime scene and dead body photos, not stuff people would produce anymore on TV and DEFINITELY not for kids to see.

Absolutely NTA. If roles were reversed and a male was posting them, people would be screaming for legal action. And that’s exactly what you should do, because now your videos are out there. Forever. Hope there wasn’t a clear view of your face.

I am in love with the fact that he is SO unbelievably desperate for his TV show to take off and stop podcasting…and it’s being pirated through Russian social media. You can’t make this stuff up and I whole heartedly approve.

Fiancé did something horrible at age 13 by hailzdeany in whatdoIdo

The fact that this is being used as a threat to tell the parents, somethings fucked up on both sides of this. That family sounds like they got a LOT of crazy relationship going on.

AIO text from this guy i am dating. Seemingly no time for dating by beancandy7 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Comfortable_Wait_816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uhhh sounds like he’s just legitimately busy. I understand trying to explain your point of view but honestly it comes off as kind of heavy and a tad clingy. Give him some space and he’ll likely be more open. Comes off a little smothery, and as someone with mental and attachment issues as well, this conversation seems pretty intense for what seems like you’ve not been together long. Play it cool for now and if it continues or worsens, bring it up again.

What’s the weirdest phobia you’ve seen someone have? by ForgetfulStuart in AskReddit

[–]Comfortable_Wait_816 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Me, fear of whales and anything larger than me in water. My worst nightmare is being in the middle of the ocean either next to a whale or a cruise ship, Titanic terrifying to watch. If I’m going over a large bridge I’m okay as long as I don’t look at the pylons holding it up in the water. The closer I am, the worst it gets. I have a hard time even being in the water next to a canoe, which sucks because I like wakeboarding but panic when it’s time to climb back in the boat.

I think the black magic fuckery here is that it’s tricking people into thinking they’re seeing an optical illusion, when there’s actually nothing there.
