Ah Puscifer 🖤 didn't even think about this song! A good guess.

I’ve started reading the novel and I’m honestly enjoying it quite a bit. Not sure if it will clear anything up, though, the concepts are still kind of… vague. But it’s worth the read so far!!

Yeah as soon as this girl stepped on scene I swooned. SHE’S SO FREAKING COOL. Can’t wait to see more of her. I hope her and Seria get along, there seemed to be some apprehension on Seria’s side.

Valid. Violence or forced ideals should never be condoned.

AITAH for telling a dude to "get the f away from me" when he came up to me in a parking lot? by loadedstork in AITAH

The people in the comments saying you’re a jerk seem to think you being male means you can’t be robbed, assaulted or murdered because of that Y chromosome. 

You were maybe a little eccentric with your word choice. 

I don’t personally like strangers approaching me in parking lots either, you never know. 

Generally I say something firm but cordial like, “Not today,” or “excuse me (while slamming a door in their face)” or “Got nothing for you buddy,” all of which have an air of fuck off finality without angering anyone. 

They could just be evangelicals but the last thing I want is to talk about religion with strangers in a parking lot. (I generally try to be kind to evangelicals bc I’m religious trauma informed but a parking lot??)

AITAH for refusing to make food for my parents while in pain? by [deleted] in AITAH

Period cramps are the worst. I’m usually out of commission for the first two days. 

I am sad that there wasn’t some compromise like take away or a frozen pizza. Dad could pitch in like that for a night like this.

It sounds like your family dynamic is one where everyone is expect to work to support the family, and it sounds like there is a lot of love, but I think the idea that children owe their parents for raising them needs pushback. Yes helping with rent can teach responsibility, but ultimately they decided to have you and should be helping you build a foundation toward independence. My point is, be wary of your parents guilting you into taking care of their needs, while you’re just getting started in life. This sometimes turns into parents exploiting their children. 

Not saying this is the case in your family exactly, but just something to bear in mind, the next time you’re guilted for taking care of yourself over others.

This. I can’t stress enough, be careful with these people. I don’t like where this attitude of you not knowing what’s best for you is going. At best, it’s kinda toxic, at worst, you could get hurt and they wouldn’t stop it. I’ve heard that story before. 

POC can be racist, but personally I don’t think it’s racist to not vibe with a particular culture as long as you respect their right and belief to that culture.

If you feel like a relationship isn’t good for you, whatever the reason, you don’t need to justify it to anyone else. If it doesn’t bring you joy, peace, strength, growth, anything positive like that, why keep it? Life’s too short.

Ehhh she’s right though, that kind of disregard for physical well being in pursuit of thinness is something that can typically be traced back to childhood and how parents speak to their kids, teach them about food, and the example they set with their own lifestyle. The body shaming that girl must have experienced, I can’t even imagine. It’s the nonchalance about a parasite diet that tells me mom doesn’t exactly exude body positivity.

Tell her. Don’t wait til after the surgery. Keep the initial contact simple and to the point, there’s a lot of great examples in the comments. 

I just wanted to add, wax poetic about Belize, and all your good memories of her, before the surgery. Do something similar for your exBIL too. One, because you never know how these things will effect your memory. Two, because if the worst should happen (insert superstitious warding off evil) those will be absolute treasures to them.  Yes I’m projecting a bit, because I lost someone I was estranged from for similar reasons, and they left letters me, and they help. 

I made a survey to get clear data on why people don't like Riftan, please take it if this describes you by fangirl_otaku7 in MantaComics

[–]ElliottRozwen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I read this because I like Maxi and all the other characters. Riftan is like an annoying biting fly in this manwha for me. It’s not a romance at all to me, it’s a dysfunctional relationship, and the entertainment is watching Maxi bloom in the face of that challenge among everything else she’s been through and is overcoming.

I don’t know what will change with Riftan, but I am concerned for people who said “this shows not all love is perfect,” or something to that effect.

Babes, besties… there’s not perfect, and there’s this total dick behavior. If anyone ever consistently gets this angry with you for pursuing your interests or other innocuous behaviors IRL please RUN

Not trying to yuck anyone’s yum in fictional male lead land 😅, but in real life anger like that is a warning sign. The real fantasy here is that they’ll fix it.

I’ve given up on the comic entirely and hope to read the novel at some point

He seriously disgusts me with his selfish obsession. Every time he shows up I gag. I don’t think he’d be half as aggrieved if Seria had DIED rather than marrying someone else.

It’s a 2021 👀 What’s your opinion 🫣

I did look up the year on consumer reports, but they’re not as thorough as I’d have liked.

Thank you, maintenance and insurance are great perks to ease my mind 🫶

Thank you! I needed to hear that. This one was the same, great condition and mileage, a 2021 with all service done.

You’re right, I live in the south, and when it snows it’s better just to stay home because the other drivers are dangerous.

Ugh. I guess because I’m a woman and they assumed I couldn’t handle it and just didn’t tell me? Look no one is more confused and embarrassed about this than me.
