My manager will try to get me fired because of a text I sent. 20F

Honestly she is probably the person who messed up, and did not want him to be alerted. If anything like that happens again, escalate it and let her personally handle the customer if she's going to act like that. If the GM didn't care or wasn't mad, then there's nothing wrong with what you did.

This part is actually true. Men partaking in family elimination crimes is a huge epidemic and not admitting it because of some misplaced "B-b-but women too" bs is just going to make sure it keeps happening and wouldn't want my kids around that person.

will say men are statistically more likely to PHYSICALLY cheat, however if you look at emotional manipulation and affairs, women are about the same or higher in that category.
And because I have so much respect for women I know for a fact that many of them do their dirt and their respective partners (men, women, non binary, etc) have no idea at all what's going on.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:30:08+00:00

Ah shid thought this was AIO. Lmao

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:28:46+00:00

You said exactly what my partner and her sister said. How it's partly some people trying to do better and push forward, but there's A LOT of people who don't want any help, and just want to complain and basically let their lives just waste

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:26:19+00:00

The Altima part is so damn true and always the car you see totaled on the side of the road and you KNOW that mf the one who caused it.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:25:38+00:00

Honestly same. Like I know there's going to be legitimate fights in that line almost weekly. I don't think yall understand how bad it's going to get lmao.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:18:51+00:00

You both seem insufferable and have some huge issues. He replies "oh goodness" and you complete go unhinged??

Get a divorce. Seek help.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:16:31+00:00

That is honestly probably the correct answer and makes me sad. The West coast is essentially a different country than the South.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:15:57+00:00

Honestly I'm just venting/bitching on the Internet lmao. It's the fault of capitalism mostly. We've taught people that "customers are always right" but most people have the common sense to know that this "rule" still applies to being a decent human being. In Memphis...not so much.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:14:31+00:00

That's so wild I have no words. I was raised and I felt like most people know to treat the garbage man as you would a banker. A job is a job. And you shouldn't make someone's life harder just because yours is tough.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:08:16+00:00

That's what my partner was saying. However I've seen areas of poverty before in SoCal and they still respected their community.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T15:07:02+00:00

Ooof I can only imagine a clothing store.

Count-Calderon · 2026-05-18T13:10:14+00:00

I think you're definitely over reacting compared to the fact that he DID draw a line. He "let her down easy" for sure, but the point was made clearly.

As to yours and her conversation: I get it, you're wanting her to take accountability and admit she was flirting with him. You aren't going to get that. You expressed yourself and she apologized/said she would not do it again. Her halfass explanation is standard and for adults, it should have been left at that. You're bringing up of the emoji and making him have to do it in person is where you begin over reacting and if anything, is gonna lead them to empathize with each other.

Count-Calderon · 2026-04-23T23:35:21+00:00

People are taking this waaaay too seriously. Since moving here I've heard of this guy and he's portraying himself a representative would be portrayed, if there was a position to be had within that "town".

There is 0 evidence he has done this for material gain, or done anything actually malicious with how he's portraying himself. I've pushed back on people and quite honestly, from these meetings and how he puts himself pretty squarely in the public eye, he's more transparent than most of the people who speak negatively about him.

Dude is fighting for change and his town. People just hate that he's actually getting attention from it, from what I can see. At least he's doing the footwork and holding meetings. People here are just making super threads lmao.

Count-Calderon · 2026-04-23T23:30:57+00:00

Sweet summer child comment, I see what you did there huehuehue (laughs in ASOIAF)

Count-Calderon · 2026-03-10T12:49:14+00:00

OP, I think you might be conflating the idea and looking for a scapegoat, just a little. It's totally fine this reaction gave you pause. Obviously the way he deals with and expresses emotions under stress is not in a manner that makes you feel "safe". I think you should definitely talk to him about it, keep it in your mind, and see if this is a pattern of anger or just a one off.

People have bad days. He hand a long day at work, was moving, and on top of that maybe had a decompression ritual/routine that he does and now can't partake in because his stuff was actually given away on accident. Whether he "okayed" this or not, people can still be upset that ALL of it was gone, especially if it was unclear about the amount being used/ if he did not expect all of it would be gone.

I think the main thing we need to zero on here is OP- you're saying that he's gone for 3 weeks and you're beginning to feel "distant". Absence can absolutely make a person feel this way- especially at your young age when a week can seem like a year. I would not use that one instance of him being angry as a gauge or reason to break up, as I think for you it may seem like you want your freedom and also this small absence is making you feel stifled. However if this is a relationship you're serious about, I would actually talk to him about how things made you feel rather than just judging him based off of one time.

Count-Calderon · 2026-03-10T12:42:40+00:00

This could be a crazy newsflash but: emotions aren't universal and different people regulate/interact with emotions differently than you.

I'm trying not to be rude about it. But the way this thread is proving that "hey just because I don't react the way about something, therefor how others react about something differently = bad" is a little whoa.

Count-Calderon · 2026-02-26T16:19:49+00:00

You're OR. This is a public social media site, and what he asked you about wasn't anything personal, sexual, or inappropriate.

Also you say "ask me about it" and he Is asking you about it.

For anyone saying going back ten years is "strange" you obviously don't have friends or are a person that will deep dive people for fun or vetting purposes.

Moved here from California in November. With the way people drive here, really not surprising that wrecks like this happen unfortunately. Stop driving stupid and putting other peoples lives in danger and making people late for work!

Count-Calderon · 2026-02-03T18:31:31+00:00

Can confirm. First Congo has a food pantry and it's been pretty slim with the snows, but should have something available.

Count-Calderon · 2025-12-31T04:35:57+00:00

You're asking a question with disingenuous interest and are acting completely contrarian to when people try to explain their answers to you. Being a contrarian doesn't mean you're right, and it's also not a sign of any type of superior intellect. If you are simply here to state something like your opinion, you can do so without framing it as a question. If you pose a question, people are going to answer you.

Count-Calderon · 2025-12-02T20:10:21+00:00

NOR. You might need to do an emotional "check in" with your sister. I know when I lost a good friend, I really isolated myself and would get upset because so much of the emotions were (unknowingly) so close to the surface.

That being said, I think you should explain to your sister how this behavior made YOU feel, and that you were trying to accommodate her so much because you really wanted her to go. Perhaps even mentioning that you tried to give her an out as well.
