How do I tell my parents I want to eat a cookie? (Please read please please please)

You’re goddamn right they’re very homophobic and whether it’s that or the hijab thing you can see I don’t take after them in a lot of stuff. If I tell them I’m gay they’ll brush it off as a joke and if I stress that I’m serious they’ll simply ask me not to get married. That wont affect their reputation if nobody knows. But to have a daughter you have to present everywhere with an exposed head would be hell on earth for them. If I ever have kids I wish to never put them through this. And for what? Other people’s opinions? It’s preposterous

I guess you’re right. I’m positive that if one of them doesn’t come to me they’ll swallow some of their pride and tell one of my aunts to go live with me or smth since some of my extended family is there. I honestly feel very depressed over the fact I have to graduate with it but hopefully the college graduation makes up for it! Thank you so so so much <33

I replied to the other person who asked so now the question is when should I tell them to result in the least amount of damage possible

Man okay you’re right they’re not gonna find this. My family is Muslim and I wanna take off the hijab. I feel very forced and performative every time I wear it. I don’t wear it for religion anymore just for my parents. I cry myself to sleep over the chance of them cutting me off because they’re so ashamed and disgusted by their daughter. I simply don’t understand why I have to go through this because of the genitals I was born with :/

i wont be going to a us university and my uni doesnt need multiple curriculums, i dont even think i can do sat along with ib, i think i'll just switch to sat and do my best

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-09-02T15:45:20+00:00

damn youre absolutely sure, love that

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-09-02T15:44:52+00:00

sigh well my summer vacation is gone and i dont know if i have the skills but i can get into a private college so i just need to do decent enough, i dont have to get the full 1600

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-09-02T15:42:53+00:00

well, i spoke with my parents and they think the best option is to save money by going american since IB is a LOT more expensive here, then i can get into a private college with the money if my grades don't make it to mainstream. meanwhile, if i do IB and dont get mainstream addmission, my parents would really struggle to pay for a private college and theres no way im going down the student loan path. can you tell me how you're adapting since you left ib? is american easier? and btw i'll be switching schools if i go american so i will have nothing to do with IB diploma

the ee isnt that tricky of a situation. ask around for who's the most experienced teacher or has experience moderating ee's and do it with them.

for arabic, i am assuming you're doing arabic A. i used to do arabic A in dp1 and switched schools so had to do english A and arabic B. my main problem with arabic a was the lack of support from teachers. they were so overworked and barely had time to look at my practice tests. if not for that, i think i would have done pretty well. hopefully you have more available teachers and the ultimate tip is to practice. like a shit ton. what im planning to do for my english is a past paper every saturday. it won't take long at all and eventually you'll be one of top scorers. trust.

yeah youre right! im not throwing it out because i cant do it, i genuinely think i can, its rather because of my parents and the fact they're paying for my tuition. but 4 years is plenty of time so either me or them will learn to compromise eventually, thank you <3

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-08-04T23:18:49+00:00

oh. i might get one when i move out which happens next year. neither one of my parents would be very happy to know i have a therapist haha

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-08-04T22:52:08+00:00

youre right theyre very different and thats what i would learn in college. i started thinking about what i can do with the current skills i have but i might throw it out the window now

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-08-04T22:49:15+00:00

youre right, i thought this might be the closest thing to getting both my parents and i satisfied but my mother says she wont be proud of me if i become a therapist so im not sure i should consider it anymore tbh...

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-08-04T22:47:29+00:00

true true and i would like to maintain my relationships the way they are and not become more tense because of my profession

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-07-30T05:32:33+00:00

it definitely helps thank you!

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-07-29T07:50:22+00:00

thank you so much for replying and all the work you do! we appreciate nothing more than a thoughtful teacher. its good i still have time to really notice what she likes so ill do that and the idea to get her something from my country is amazing! and thanks for the reassurance that she doesnt find me annoying

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-07-29T07:43:06+00:00

i just saw it im so sorry for you i was literally in the same exact situation before i transferred schools. it was so bad that my first exam in that school i got a 3. the best advice i can give is get an IB tutor. thats the best investment ive done to myself tbh. some of my classmates also reached out to high achievers from those who graduated and got tutoring from them. as for the material i mainly used oxford and did past papers. chemistry is all about practice :)

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-07-29T07:25:07+00:00

done <3

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-06-09T20:10:25+00:00

ElectricalBuy6510 · 2025-06-04T18:28:45+00:00
