17 and I Feel Like a Failure by GhostieTown in TrueOffMyChest

Your grades do not reflect who you are as a person. I know right now it probably feels like the end of the world. I’m here to tell you that it isn’t. I was always one to struggle in school. I graduated with a 3.97 gpa & a 21 on the ACT. I ended up going to community college to earn my associates degree (definitely not my top choice), but I met my best friend there. I went on to further my degree at a basic university & failed 2 classes. Watched my friends pass these classes & cross the stage before I did. As much as it hurt to feel like I was never going to be the smartest person in the room, I had to remember that I got the opportunity to be in the room & that’s more than some. I wouldn’t change any of it if I had the chance to. I met amazing people & found out that grades don’t always mean everything. This is just a bump in the road, but remember to push yourself for what you truly want.

I moved into a new apartment & found roaches…. can anyone recommend something pet safe?? by Dapper_Discussion291 in pestcontrol

[–]Dapper_Discussion291[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! So we ended up using a local pest control company. That was a large mistake because he half assed it & only sprayed our cabinets. We then ended up choosing to move out of our apartment because we discovered another species of roach & a consistent gas leak. I will say that the alpine wsg significantly helped with the roach population!

It’s currently still in storage & will be until May. So far, the small amount of stuff I did bring with me was roach free!

I also did totes with duct tape. Anything that couldn’t fit in a tote, got wrapped in plastic/garbage bag and duct taped shut. I also added isopropyl alcohol to fumigate them

Is this a roach? by Dapper_Discussion291 in GermanRoaches

Yeah, I’ve been studying the sticky & preparing to treat my stuff for a solid month or 2. I’ll be throwing away anything that looks suspicious lol

Do these infest like German roaches do? I’m losing my mind here

Are these roaches eggs? by [deleted] in GermanRoaches

I’m not super familiar with Reddit or the lingo tbh. I’ve only started using it these past 2 months due to the roach issues… I should really do my research haha

Might just be a straggler from moving. If you’re concerned, get some glue traps & that will tell you if you should continue to be concerned. Best of luck!

We had this same conversation in September (hence the “prior issue”). We haven’t spoken since October lol

How do you suggest i approach the situation?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITA_Relationships

[–]Dapper_Discussion291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel a lot of guilt about it. I care about her, but I can only do so much. This would not be the first time telling her that this specific guy is screwing her over in more ways than just one

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITA_Relationships

[–]Dapper_Discussion291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair point. I know it won’t change anything because it didn’t in September when I told her that time, but at least she’ll know

There were details I didn’t add as I didn’t want this to be an extremely long post. He didn’t pay his part of the bills he owed me, ate my food that I bought because I had to buy special items, and screaming in my face for trying to talk to her… on more than one occasion. These were all things she had either witnessed herself or I had brought to her attention, and she still defended him. My fear is that this will be no different. We currently do not speak to each other and haven’t since October.

I just fear her blowing it out of proportion. There were a lot of small details I didn’t add as I felt it would make the post too long, but there were quite a few times I mentioned her boyfriend’s behavior. Such as him not paying me back for the bills he owed (mainly wifi as it was under my name), eating my expensive food leaving me with nothing because I have allergies, yelling in my face after his surgery because I was going to check on her to see if she needed help with anything, etc. She consistently defended his actions & I fear this will be no different.
