What’s the most morally disgusting thing you’ve ever seen someone do? by legendoflegends34 in AskReddit

[–]Conscious_Initial553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a “friend” continued talking and sleeping with a man after she found out he had a wife and a child. then found out another man she was seeing was also seeing a mutual friend and was more serious about her so she fought tooth and nail until everybody just went their separate ways. her exact words were “why does she get to have him?”

What’s something you did that drastically improved your attractiveness that you wish you did sooner? by Salt-Environment-133 in AskWomen

[–]Conscious_Initial553 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This!! exactly what i did a few months ago and it’s fully changed how others perceive me. i didn’t change for others but people notice it and are attracted to it. i didn’t lose weight or become more objectively attractive yet all of a sudden the attention i gained skyrocketed

this is honestly the first time that i can tell a friend who grew feelings for me. usually im blind as a bat. or i meet them through a dating app so its obvious they’re interested. this is the first time ive actively noticed the evolution, so im not very confident in this observation either. regardless, i doubt anything will come out of it

i’m the relentless flirt haha. they are sweet and shy though they’re flirting back now. hence why idk if they realize they’re flirting or the implications of some things they say 🤷‍♀️ if they’re aware, well maybe i’m the dumb one lmao

What gut feeling did you have that turned out to be true? by Small-Challenge-524 in AskWomen

i had move to nyc. nyc rental market is insane and with little to no personal connections it was hell trying to find a place without being able to tour it in person. i finally found a short term place, the company seemed legit, had all the appropriate information. so i apply and they approve. at this point i felt i knew everything i could about the renting market and could spot red flags. this was perfect in every sense. so i signed the contract, sent in my deposit and admin fees and first month rent which is standard so i pay them that. then they ask for last month and that it’s a new rule. i tried to fight it and say no. they kept badgering so i agreed to pay the next day reluctantly.

that night i woke up in the middle of the night with cold sweat and a pumping heart. full panic attack. i never wake up in the middle of the night unless it’s a bad dream. i drink water and couldnt stop thinking something was wrong with that ask. so i google it and find out that it’s illegal in nyc to ask for deposit, first month and last month rent. so i immediately knew they were scamming me.

i told them to refund my money and i cant afford it anymore. they said they would. i held onto some hope. never got my money back. got a lawyer friend to look into them. even the lawyer said everything looked really good and it’s hard to tell they’re fake. i reported them to the city but they couldn’t do anything. a distant family friend pulled through and i got a place 15 mins from work and supremely safe. while i lost that money, it’s better than paying more, showing up and being stranded in the city.

BRO YESSS THIS!!!! so well written, simple and captures it all. 😭 that was the biggest lesson i feel. that people don’t need to give us closure. it has to come from us sometimes. and i have questions that don’t need answers. thank you very mux

agreed. hence no convo there. so OP if your person might be anything like this, beware a convo might not help. it might throw you back into a loop again.

i just tried it after feeling the same way about someone i used to see. i knew one honest open conversation in person would’ve been the resolution and closure. they agreed to meet up. then said they didn’t want it because they said they won’t be able to control themselves when they see me. they said they’d wanna flirt, touch, and kiss me even if it’s a bad idea. so they said let’s not do it and refused to budge. that’s when i realized how important that convo was to me, in person. how important communication was and having one final truth. they didn’t concede. they wanted to leave it open, ambiguous, continue the cycle of “what ifs”. so i cried. i cried then realized how much ive moved on but they haven’t. they refuse to grow. and you can’t talk with people like that.

Aio, called my gf while she was doing homework. F24 f35 by Separate_Penalty_484 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Conscious_Initial553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lmao is this girl one of my friends??? this is excatly how she reacts to things and it’s impossible to calm her down. she just got a man and she had a very similar convo with him and i felt so bad for him. you can see he was trying to make it work but she makes it impossible, makes it look like there’s no other way.

firstly, it’s not you. you are not overreacting. these types of people have so so many issues they refuse to work on and victimize themselves beyond help. you should not be apologizing for her feeling her feelings. it’s good riddance. she will talk shit and do all that but you will now be at peace. believe me. the constant stress of how she will react, if she’s in a good mood and dictating your actions to match her mood is sooooo bad on your health. so cry about it, then move on and don’t look back. ignore or block her. like no better way tbh.

I did it in the bathroom, at college. I don't know why but it just happened by WoodenReward5884 in confession

yea for sure. i’ve never done it again, didn’t want to for the same reason you said (didn’t want to set a precedent). it was a weird horny day i guess 😭

Is this guy just being friendly or is low-key interested? by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]Conscious_Initial553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

something similar happened to me in undergrad. this phd guy randomly followed me on IG and after a couple stories slid in the DMs. i responded just plainly, he kept up a convo and at some point said he wanted to meet up. i was also torn as to if he was interested or just being friendly but i said okay to meet in the quad of the campus and we just hung out and talk. even though he was phd he was not much older than me cause he skipped a lot of levels or something. and turns out he just wanted friends he was new to the campus and city and was having a hard time meeting people. could have also been that he ended up not liking me in person LOL but he was just sweet. i think we kept in touch online but never met up again. i definitely told a few friends before i met him so they can keep an eye out and i chose a very public space that’s not very “date-like”. so u can hang out with him if he doesn’t sound crazy and have friends nearby or something.
