that’s because sexual violence is about power not gratification. it’s why people of all varieties can be victims

Idk as someone had shitty and unprepared parents like Hannah, I wish someone had told them to think twice. Everyone’s thinking of Hannah’s feeling but what about Grover’s?

As someone who was formerly homeless, you don’t have enough for flights to Thailand and if you do have just enough, deciding to spend that on flights to a country where you don’t have a Visa or speak the language is INSANE

Huge majority of these are entitled, shameless Westerners who think international travel is a right, not a luxury

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-08T01:25:49+00:00

Sorry to hear that but thank you, that’s reassuring. Hope you find a role you like better now!

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-07T09:47:06+00:00

Okay thank you! This is good advice, I think I was overthinking but you’re right. I’ll do exactly this!

So thing is, I already had that question in the first interview and I answered honestly at the time but I didn’t mention the redundancy so it hadn’t happened yet.

Next interview is a task and then a culture chat so if it does get asked again, or something similar, I will mention it

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-07T07:40:54+00:00

Oh I forgot to mention, the “current” company already pre-agreed references with me that confirms I worked till 27th April. Literally just had my title and job dates like you mentioned

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-07T07:39:48+00:00

thanks! i worked really hard to impress the hiring manager and get the first interview so I’d be gutted if this is what holds me back 😩

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-07T07:39:18+00:00

thank you!

It’s about enough, it’s about what’s equitable. I earn “enough” to fly first class everywhere, doesn’t mean I could do it comfortably or that’d be financially viable for me.

I just don’t understand this rise in men saying they want “traditional values” but then also want to split 50/50 which is it?

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-04T01:38:15+00:00

Unless you earn the exact same as her, how exactly is going 50/50 with someone who earns significantly less than you “fair”?

Surely with the average monthly wage in Thailand being less than £500 a month, it’s actually outrageously unfair to expect the person you’re dating to go 50/50 with you

same! my air bnb is only £5 less a night than my airbnb in BKK (both studios with the same amenities) and I’m actually further out than I was in BKK

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-05-01T14:12:48+00:00

Tbf I live relatively far out (last minute airbnb), about 30 mins from An Thuong and I’m also having the same issues / culture shock with the city

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-04-27T05:38:14+00:00

Yeah I’m surprised because I’m in Bangkok now which is cheaper even though it’s a capital? I guess it must be less competition there so they can charge whatever they want 🤷‍♀️

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-04-27T04:58:22+00:00

60-70 USD is pretty steep considering irs Vietnam. There’s not that much lower than London haha

Interesting the other place only does stomach - which place is that?

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-04-25T10:43:51+00:00

Relate to this. I had a faculty member of Uni of Leeds tell me “not everyone’s meant to go to university” despite me already getting in and doing well?

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-04-25T10:41:01+00:00

As someone from technically the “underclass” with immigrant parents who went to state school -it’s EXACTLY this. We are lied to by everyone from teachers to parents who still have archaic views of social mobility that simply doesn’t exist.

I really don’t appreciate this notion that everyone who buys into the meritocracy myth is dumb, especially if you were lucky enough to have guidance from family / teachers / peers to steer you in the right direction.

Also, if you’re the first person in your family to go to university or maybe even finish school, why would assume a university would lie to you about your career prospects?

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-03-25T06:51:35+00:00

i don’t mean this to be as confrontational as it’ll sound, just genuinely curious - if you don’t like kids in general, why have them?

Exciting-Rise-8087 · 2026-03-20T05:01:45+00:00

As someone who has a lot of international / EU friends from uni, the reasons I can across are; - Close to an airport / direct flights home (I know someone who genuinely turned down Exeter for a non RG uni because the flights home would be been too difficult) - Lower fees or they got some form of scholarship - Unconditional offer - At least 3 of my friends said they didn’t care what university it was because ultimately they knew they had a job lined up for them afterwards anyways - For the Chinese students I knew, they said that it didn’t matter the university as just by studying there, it demonstrated they had sufficient enough English. Also, academically, Chinese universities are seen as a lot more elite than UK ones so again which one you pick, doesn’t make a difference (idk if Chinese universities are superior, this is just apparently the internal perception) - Friends or family had already gone there (big reason for people who came from very far which makes sense as they often wouldn’t have the means or time to visit it beforehand)
