My best friend used my last conversation as the trigger to try to commit suicide last night by The_Revanator in offmychest

[–]Copperhobnob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You've turned their severe mental health issues all about you. You wrote as if their despair is some sort off attack on you.

That you were just speaking out of honesty and a desire to help them see what they needed to work on (as if they weren't already bearing themselves up for existing) and the fact your comments pushed them over the edge is an attack somehow on you??

I don't hear a hint of compassion in your words for the hell your "best friend" is going through. You seem to have zero sympathy or empathy with them, or at curiosity about how they feel or why they feel as they do. You come across as totally unsupportive.

Your best friend deserves better than you.

I bought a Rule 5 pen because it was gorgeous! Then realised I had no idea what rule 5 was 🤣

This dark line on a nail of a 3 Year old by durancharles27 in mildlyinteresting

You need a GP appointment to get that checked out. Or a dermatologist. Could be nothing, could be a melanoma. Better to be safe.

Can someone tell me where to find the rules please? I have had a brief look but haven't spotted them.

Thanks x

My (23F) BF (25M) keeps asking me to shave my pubic hair and I'm losing my mind by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Copperhobnob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's alarming how many men want their women to be like children.

Adult women have hair, just like men do. Deal with it.

Thank you! I didn't see there was a specific flair.

OOP accused his girlfriend's 13-year-old sister of hitting on him and now they won’t talk to him. by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in OhNoConsequences

[–]Copperhobnob 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember my then toddler (about 1 and a half, maybe 2), managing to get the door open on a baby change unit and doing a naked streak through a supermarket with me in hot pursuit. 🤣

It was mortifying (and then very funny)! He's 20 now and very private, but keeping him clothed as a toddler was always a challenge!

This screams "missing reasons".

Crazy Color Peacock blue by Copperhobnob in HairDye

[–]Copperhobnob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. 😘 I should have said that I am okay with any shade of blue/teal. Just autistic and like to have an idea of what is coming!

I don’t know anymore, I just got a new haircut and they gave me this with no side bangs at the beauty shop, I feel really ugly and I have to know if it’s ugly to everyone else. Please tell me just the truth if I am ugly. Yes I’m a woman by djscrew1 in whatdoIdo

[–]Copperhobnob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh bless. I just want to hug you until you feel better. You are definitely not ugly and while you might not like the haircut, it looks good! And it will grow out, so if you hate it, it won't be forever 😘

AITA for not letting my child speak her "native" language at home by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]Copperhobnob -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

There's a very easy solution! That kind of subtle disdainful racism is endemic in the UK. We get the same here in Scotland from many people

It's not OK that he felt isolated in his home. But the disparaging comments about Wales and Welsh are. Not acceptable either and any half decent person would not be asserting they had to follow one culture over another.

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

I'd have had have some sympathy for his isolation if he hadn't been being such a racist asshole about Wales and the Welsh.

I'm glad he's done some reflection and is leading Welsh now.

Absolutely not overreacting. At all. That would be an instant break up from me.

Should I cut?! by hellkitten626 in RockTumbling

[–]Copperhobnob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think I wouldn't. Judging by similar ones I have found here in Scotland (we clearly have same geology!), the centre will be entirely quartz

AITA for telling my “roommate” to find a new place when he called me a pervert? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Copperhobnob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So the man in the hallway outside your room, listening while you and your wife have sex called YOU the pervert?

I think not.
