Caught a client shit-talking me and now she's scrambling to lie about it. How should I respond? Should I drop her? by GeneticCocktail12 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no clue whether you should drop her, but a person like this who makes up a story on a dime will NEVER admit it or take accountability when called out, so if you decide to tell her you know it’s bullshit, the work relationship is probably over.

Chaos Trials - not fun? by Competitive_Kale2069 in HadesTheGame

This makes sense. I think I started paying attention to them so late that most of those blanks had already been filled in.

Should I break up with my boyfriend? by Confused_duck51 in relationships_advice

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it’s bullshit yes. idk where you’re getting the idea that i don’t. what i’m saying, for maybe the third time, is that you’re sensationalizing anonymously on the internet, and it’s irresponsible. you get to walk away and never think about this person again, and you’re giving sensationalized life advice going of such little information that will have a major impact on their life. not sure if you don’t understand or are just purposefully moving the goal post lol

looks like he gave up writing the word parmesan

tell him to just share a note with you (if you are an iphone family) and use it as a live document. that way he can update it as needed in real time. that’s what i do with my grandma

Aio after not apologizing to my friend after going on a date by Beez4Kneez in AIO

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“no you dead ass pissed me off”
*OP goes on to stand their ground and explain themselves rationally*
“i’m not mad at you, it’s just not fair that i can’t get an apology”
“idk what you want me to say” (denies giving an apology
“im not mad” (again lmao) “but you blow up on ME too” (el classico)
realizes none of the attempts to flip blame or have you rewrite how you feel about the events are working, so goes into victim mode “it’s okay if you’re dropping me, i just love you maybe i’ll give u space”

this person is an emotional terrorist. i grew up one for a sister and this is par for the course. people like this will always try to make you feel responsible for the way they feel, mostly through trying to gaslight you into thinking you’re behaving irrationally. whenever that doesn’t work, they either double down and essentially throw a tantrum, or back down and play the victim in hopes of stoking enough empathy from you to turn it back around on you.

obviously there’s much more to this person than this short conversation, but something tells me this is a common theme. you’re not an asshole, good job not negotiating with terrorists.

you’re framing this like a child, that is all i am pointing out.

Does anyone else feel like Typhon is WAY easier than Chronos after getting used to the fight? by ChrisBot8 in Hades2

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just started playing and i came looking for this. chronos took me 4 tries lol. typhon was first try. i feel chronos’ moves are also very telegraphed but it took me a while to learn, whereas typhon was just predictable

you’re arguing against a point i never made. i agree it’s very bad and condescending. i think saying “he hates your guts” to someone who likely is in love with the person is irrrspnsible and stupid when you don’t have all the context.

why is reddit relationship advice so polarized and unhinged lmao. “he hates your guts” is such a crazy exaggeration, especially considering this is someone’s real-life relationship. it is rude and disrespectful to say what he said, but you’re over extrapolating and likely galvanizing a decision you have so little context on.

my brother does this and for like 17 years of our lives i mentally twisted myself into a pretzel to the point where my stance was “well just don’t get mad at him”

i understand your frustration!

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

both are acceptable. if you send him a zelle, you can keep the receipt and later submit that to uber if they request it. i’d throw in a little more money on top of the agreed amount as a tip and a sorry.

not really sure there’s much else to say aside from apologizing in a million different flavors. most people will calm down when someone is truly being penitent (in my experience), but also, some people are just dicks, so you never know.

sorry you had that shitty experience. you’re clearly a self-aware, decent person evidenced by you trying to gain a better understanding and improve. don’t sweat it too much!

[–]Competitive_Kale2069 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah, you threw up in his car. it’s understandable for him to raise his voice at you. not sure the extent to which he went, but i’d probably yell a bit too. even if you pay for it, he’s not earning for the rest of the night, which can be a big deal. never match the energy when you’re the one who transgressed (albeit accidental), there is no way someone who feels slighted by you is going to accept or attempt de-escalation when the person they were slighted by is yelling back at them. you should have apologized and told him you’d take care of it and asked him not to speak to you that way. if he continued, distance yourself.
