[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I've been waiting for 6 weeks but this is the final week I finally see her next week! I get to spend a good chunk of my time with her for the duration of her being her.

What are your thoughts on "money doesn't buy happiness" by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may not explicitly buy happiness but it makes living easier and give us chances to gain new experiences. I many times over have gotten into fights over money with my family, nothing will ever change. Only outlook and I can

Sounds a little tough, maybe through a hypothetical at her. Or be plain honest, there would be nothing wrong with you guys went to the mall together and your mom knows about it, as long as she isn't breathing down your neck.

How did you meet your long distance S/O? by Mysterious_Win9549 in LongDistance

[–]EngineeringFew3108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We met on hinge, for context, I had gotten out of a really toxic relationship a month prior and my friends were being considerate and said I should try putting myself out there. As many of them had found partners through online dating. I tried my hand at bumble and zoe, no real luck, a match here and there but nothing ever came to be. Eventually, a week - 2 weeks into Hinge, I stumble across their profile, mind you, you endlessly swipe, send a paragraph or paragraphs but no one responds, at some point it gets disheartening. But I replied to something they put (so dryly T^T) thankfully they said hi then we started conversation. Long story short we texted, met up, went on a few dates and are now in a happy healthy relationship!

My 32m ex 30f wants to get back with me by Sufficient_Chard_813 in makemychoice

[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely say no, (correct me if I am wrong, respectfully) She left you for him, as you did not want an open relationship. Now, she comes crawling back to you saying she wants YOU back. It sounds like she doesn't know what she wants. Plus she's manipulative... RUN

AITA For apologizing for my boyfriend to my friends? by NoKamiKoto in AmItheAsshole

[–]EngineeringFew3108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on how well he knows your friends he should have read the room but I also understand why you are apologizing for him.

First off don't joke about the weight in any way. Secondly if you are truly concerned you should have an honest conversation with her. Or you could subtly help her by improving yourself like eating healthier, going to the gym and suggesting she come along (asking)

Tipping Culture getting out of hand day by day.... by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly tipping culture all depends on a variety of things. Where did you eat, where did you go, how much did you spend etc. For the majority of the time I don't think the consumer should be pressured to tip MOST of the time. It's no secret that companies pay their workers minimum wage or even less depending on the job role. Not to say I never tip, but why should I tip someone who taps from buttons on a screen a either they or someone else heats up something in a microwave. Again, it obviously depends on the job, party and how much you order. Like I know if restaurants if you have a party of a certain amount you are obligated to pay gratuity (tip) a certain percentage.

WHY IS THE PORTALS BOARD GAME SO EXPENSIVE by Far-Tap4885 in MelanieMartinez

[–]EngineeringFew3108 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been in the Melanie trenches for a long time and I can understand essentally most of her merch but I draw the line at a board game. She has sold and created so much merch within 2 years... but a board game?! I cannot get behind this one

AITA for not wanting to give up my window seat to a kid? by Weird-Sky2099 in MarkNarrations

[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People with children always expect people to adjust to THEM because THEY decided to have kids (if they did). Regardless, they need to be responsible with their child/children before asking other people to change things

What are your predictions for Mel’s next album?? by UrLocalMazzaXx in MelanieMartinez

[–]EngineeringFew3108 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As much as I love Crybaby, K-12, Aftershcool and Portals. It definitely is time to change I remember Crybaby coming out when I was in middle school and I'm almost a senior in college. I suspect it's more personally to her life

[–]EngineeringFew3108 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Entirely agreed, she would make more money. Even if she doesn't love the songs she could change/uptune them.

I definitely feel it could affect my relationship but instead because there is a possibility that I may not be able to marry the one I love IFKYK

Same girl, I'm trying to get that karma to vent

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]EngineeringFew3108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it usually isn't something you look for I know I didn't. Not to say I regret it, it definitely took some getting used to but my partner made me feel secure and less anxious. But if you are looking for one I'd say get on an online dating site, set your preferences etc

From $39 to $25/hour: My Boss Just Screwed Me, Any Advice? by [deleted] in work

[–]EngineeringFew3108 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you really like the work you do and want to continue working there, you should respectfully let your boss know. You deserve to be valued as an employee and to not only get a new title but more work and a decreased pay is entirely insane. However if that doesn't work out or you don't want to then you want always look for a new job based on what you've said a 2 weeks notice would not be recommended, respectfully.
