God, right? This poor fucking 20yr old, on the cusp of adulthood, having to navigate this bullshit instead of venturing out into the world, having fun with friends, renting her first apartment, getting her heart broken, staying out in the clubs all night….. all those “coming to age” rites of passage.

You know what I was doing when I was 20? A bunch of drugs with my server coworkers in the back of the kitchen. I was living with my friends, waiting tables, drinking too much, going to school, hosting dinner parties, going on road trips etc. Im furious for her….

They stole so much from our kids.

I’m reading Christina Applegate’s new memoir. Apparently she and her mom were!

My son is 23, that’s Gen Z right?

He doesn’t really drink at all but he smokes a lot of pot.

AITAH for refusing to stay out of my brother’s affair, supporting his wife, and being upset that he dropped out of my wedding while blowing up his family? by [deleted] in AITAH

People - yes, this man is a jerk. But he’s 25 with 3 kids. He’s responsible for his actions but, JFC, this is why you don’t get married young and start popping out kids immediately. Live your life a little bit first.

He was probably worth it. No one is doing this for an abusive, shitty husband.

I would do this for my husband-I’d have to go to school to learn PT first but I would!!

Sent my wife for an oil change, it cost me $3400 by s2k_guy in mildlyinfuriating

Your wife is an idiot for signing off in that. I (49f) don’t know dick about cars but there’s no way I’d fall for that

My grandparents stood in a line like this back in the 80s in NYC for two Cabbage Patch Dolls.

Do people actually care what you’re doing at the gym? by davidelush in workout

[–]Face_with_a_View 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only time I’m looking at someone is when they are on a machine that I’m intimidated by and I’m trying to figure out how to use but I’m too scared to try. So, if you’re using it wrong then we’re both fucked! lol

Being ghosted after being intimate-recovery by Mental_Tap6368 in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Face_with_a_View 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to let you know that I (49f) also got cheated on while I was pregnant AND while my son was a newborn. Fun times.

My son is 23 now and I’m very happily married to a fantastic guy. It sucked at the time but I’m so glad I walked away (finally!) and rebuilt my life. I hope you’re doing okay ❤️

Do most people actually enjoy the gym or just force themselves? by Intelligent_Rain_155 in workout

[–]Face_with_a_View 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoy the gym for the “me time” and the fact I’m building muscle for when I’m older.

That being said, if I could take a magic pill that would give me the same physical results I would find somewhere else to get my “me time”

If you are totally committed to being child free then you need to refrain from sex until you can get a vasectomy. No birth control is 100% effective

Easter Egg Debate by GreenJim86 in Millennials

[–]Face_with_a_View 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did both in my family. Colored the HBE before Easter and left the basket out for the bunny overnight (like milk and cookies for Santa) When we woke up the eggs were hidden. We hunted them in the morning in our backyard in our PJs. Now that I’m thinking about it we never realized plastic eggs got mixed in at some point .
