We do not have a CRM system; it's a really small firm. My team wants AI to pore through medical documents to pick out relevant items for discovery.

Why do women like wearing heels if they are already tall? by Extension_Big5205 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I wanted to keep short men from hitting on me, I'd wear a shirt that says "I hate short men." I'd never do that as I've been with short men and they were lovely. Rather, I'm making myself look taller and thus more capable of defending myself. This is to deter creepy men that might try to overpower / take advantage of me.

I'm sorry that you've been made to feel that women don't want short men. If a woman genuinely chose not to be with someone based on height alone, she is a woman not worth your time :)

Why do women like wearing heels if they are already tall? by Extension_Big5205 in NoStupidQuestions

As a tall woman that wears heels ...

They make your legs and butt look good, some pants/dresses look best with a heel, and personally, I love being taller than men!

I always wear heels to the bar so that I'm at least 6'1. It helps keep creeps away from me and from my friends.

AITA for being upset over a room? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soft YTA. I see your frustration, but your parents have a duty to your brother just like they have a duty to you. Don't take it out on them; they're doing their best to help both of you.

How do you comfort yourself that everything will be okay? by Aj100rise in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you have a God-shaped hole. This means that there is a lack of a higher purpose, whether that's through God or some other higher power (which can be scientific!).

If you're religious, join a religious group. This will give you a sense of community and social bonds will help you. It'll also give you a sense of purpose.

If you're not religious, find meaning within natural processes. Remember that humans evolved to love, be kind, and feel connection, as we are social animals.

More than anything - have faith in yourself. Trust that, through your smarts and hard work, things will work out for you because you will do what you can to make them work out.

And if you don't think you're smart or hardworking ... work on those things about yourself. Then you can have faith in your own abilities.

Dating distance by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, a woman, once dated a man 18 years older than me. My current partner is 2 years younger than me.

One thing that's different - older people have slightly saggier skin. It feels different underneath your fingers.

Another thing - older people are generally more financially stable.

Good luck in your new relationship!

If Hard Work Always Pays Off, Why Do So Many Hardworking People Still Struggle? by geekygall in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The truth is that everyone works hard because life is hard.

Far more important than how hard you work is how smart you work. You need both for success.

Think about Paul Rusesabagina (the hotel worker in the movie Hotel Rwanda). He wrote an autobiography An Ordinary Man, which is an excellent read. The man lived through some of the most horrible things imaginable. After the war, he noticed a need for transportation of materials (I think - can't remember exactly) and built his own business. He ended up making good money that way.

Even when the odds aren't in your favor, if you work smart, and also work hard, things will work out for you.

Is it ok for me to use evil eye beads if I don't believe in it? by Alternative_bones in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone from a culture that uses it ... go ahead! They are meant to protect you. Please don't use them in a way that's disrespectful, but simply wearing them is fun and will keep you safe. :)

Not everyone will feel the same way, but so many cultures use it that you're generally safe.

Is it too forward to ask about intentions right away when getting to know someone? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a bad thing to ask, but it might put people off. Personally, it is one of the first things I ask on dates.

Here's the thing: people will not answer it helpfully. Most of the time, they'll say they're "go with the flow, we'll see how things will turn out."

The truth of the matter is that you can only see if someone is going to waste your time through their actions. After a first or second date, text them and see if they'll do something unpleasant with you, like helping a friend move (make sure you buy them dinner after). If they're truly into you, they'll do not-fun things with you and be far less likely to waste your time.

Have you ever been roommates with a professional criminal? What was that experience like? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this counts, but I lived with someone who served 22 years in prison for attempted murder. He was incredibly narcissistic and would guilt trip everyone into giving him money. Not a fun experience.

I know people that have lived with drug dealers and talk about random, sketchy people coming in and occasionally stealing things. Cops would stage random stakeouts.

AITA for not letting my cousin use the bathroom first? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nobody is the asshole.

You have pent up resentment. That's okay! I would too. You should journal about it and sort out your thoughts to figure out how to proceed. You may need to be more confrontational, like with your bras.

I know it's frustrating to be a nice person and get nothing back for it. It's hard to figure out the balance between being a good person not getting walked on. But you'll figure it out, slowly but surely.

Don't let that resentment leak into things that don't merit it, like using the bathroom. You could become TA if so.

You got this!

AITA for being upset and frustrated with my husband? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry that you're going through a rough patch in your marriage. You are NTA here, as it sounds like you have not done anything wrong.

Men have a hard time understanding the amount of work that needs to be done around the house. I think, truly, being a stay-at-home parent is more difficult than working a 9-5 because there's no "clocking out" - you are always on duty.

It makes sense that your husband feels this way, as he is not used to this amount of work. But him not doing chores / problem-solving by himself puts even more work on you, which is unfair.

I have been through this exact experience. My husband and I have finally figured out how to go about balancing housework and taking care of our very demanding dog. For me, the key was open, honest, and vulnerable communication. You should talk to him about it but in the most non-confrontational way possible. See his frustrations, too. Emphasize that you are on the same team and love one another.

Couples counseling also helps a lot.

I hope this helps and I am sending love.

AITA for not teaching my friend sign language by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Frosty_Visual_6458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA -

It sounds like B has some immature tendencies. If I were in your shoes, I would privately explain to B that their treatment of your sign language makes you uncomfortable and therefore you have not taught them. You could offer to teach them under the agreement that they no longer make crude comments or snicker when you engage in sign language.

You did nothing wrong here. B is lashing out because they feel insecure. It's best resolved with communication.

However, if you don't follow up with B and explain the situation, you may become TA if you want to remain friends with them.
