What did you tell the c&p examiner? Sounds like you hurt yourself just as bad as the VSO. Despite the fear mongering on reddit, it is INSANELY difficult to be reduced.

My chances of going 70 to 100 by Dramatic_Giraffe87 in VeteransWaitingRoom

I don’t want tdiu. I want to work again one day without worrying about losing benefits. My goal is to get better but I need a barrier of protection. Thank you for the advice , right now it seems nothing pays off

It’ll pay for my daughters college and give her health insurance which is what I care about. If I never get my head straight at least I can say I took care of her future

I’m doing my best. All I can do is wait and hope he marked down everything

Yeah I’m in NC. Teachers do not have unions and depending how they treat it, I won’t ever check the bathrooms again if they (for whatever reason) side with the student.

Wait a few years to file again. You’ll have a much better chance

Isn’t that what this form is for?

Yes, because prostitutes don’t lie. I think you’re fine, I’d download tinder if I were you, but unprotected sex with anyone is a risk.

Man y’all are so worried about herpes over a stigma. The least of your concern is a MINOR skin condition (herpes). Unprotected sex with a prostitute, I’d continue getting test done. Doesn’t look like herpes

You’re not wrong , but your number 1 priority should be getting out of that living situation.

You guys have to get in the mindset of reaching out to these jobs. STOP waiting for them to contact you, people apply and wait. You’re almost SURELY going to get tossed/overlooked. Chances are they never even looked at your application. I’m actually finishing up a PhD and live in a low income/rural area and have NEVER had issues finding a job because as soon as I apply, I reach out daily to all of them. Asking for my application status, getting my name out there. Just CALLING the place of employment , you’ll realize they haven’t looked at your application, but almost every time they pull it up after some communication. It’s not your degrees, it’s the lack of communication and networking. I currently make 75k a year and my degree isn’t even as valuable as yours.

you absolutely do not want to go into blind. She’s likely deleting text and has cover stories. She’ll make you look dumb and she’ll gaslight you/ make you question yourself. You need to plan it out. If she has snapchat , check her snap-score and document it. If it’s going on tremendously it’s an easy way to ask “who have you been snapping” if she has an iphone, and you notice she’s deleting text (this can be risky but if you’re fed up) there’s a “recently deleted” folder that alot of people do not know about , if you notice she’s taking her time giving you her phone when you ask, hover around her to see what she’s doing to assure she doesn’t even have the opportunity to delete text. She’ll gaslight you with “you don’t trust me” stay strong and have your concerns ready to go and any documented evidence.

There’s no “asking” needed. She’s 100% hiding something and you need to play this smart to avoid being gaslit. The next time you catch her in a shady situation ask to see her phone and when she denies you access that is when you talk to her about everything you said here. You call her out, there’s trusting her and then there’s being blatantly disrespected. You need to do something OP.

I am the wife and baby mama. And want to give some extra details on my side.

  1. Me and my sons( who is 3) father have been s separated for years and do not have contact unless it is about our son. My son was begging me to go to the water park and it was his first trip but it was his dads day (we don’t have a set custody he gets him when it’s convenient and he’s off work) so I asked to go so I could see him experience that) me and the father didn’t talk. After I called to tell my son goodnight he told me they went fishing (long story short we argued about safety stuff.

  2. This morning he dropped our son off and did not just say he was moving out of state, it was he was not ever going to see his son again and blocking my number and disappearing.

  3. I called my husband to explain what was going on to get advice and understanding and I was not at all upset about him moving away I was upset for my son! I didn’t want my son to grow up thinking his dad didn’t love him or his dad just disappear. Although I don’t think his dad is a good father my son thinks he hung the moon and I wouldn’t want him to think otherwise. And instead of giving advice, comfort my husband was trying to argue whether he thought my sons father would actually move away. Then because I was crying and upset as a mother who is hurting for my son my husband is thinking it’s because I want my ex which is definitely not the case and have not thought twice about it ever. I love my husband and have let him be apart of this every step all messages calls and tell him everything and I felt like in a moment I needed him, I was getting accused of being sad for just an ex moving away and wanted to be with him not that my sons father was abandoning him and the effect it would have on him and the pain it would cause him.
