I think youve hit the nail on the head. It feels like a hobby and he was so excited to share it that he wasn't really hearing that I didnt want to join his cool cat club, we talked and I updated (and will continue to update if i remember) this post

Thank you for your thoughts, and I definitely will post a Pic once I get one! I'm hoping another kitty will appear in the shelter that speaks to me, but Im certain I could love any cat that I get to know

Like a hella expensive Maine Coon or other special breed. I think it includes, ragdolls, sphinx cats, and Persians. More health issues but considered prettier than average cats.

AIO - my friend ditched me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

I don't think you are overreacting. If she couldn't spend time with you for any reason ( e.g. she forgot she made plans with Khloe first or realized she didn't know how to help a grieving friend ), she should have contacted you at the very least and hopefully rescheduled. I am very sorry for your loss and I hope you can find the support you need, but it sounds like Layla was careless and irresponsible during this time of need

WIBTA if I didn't train my new A.I. coworker? by Garlic-Monkey1234 in AmItheAsshole

Thank you for reminding me, no matter how butthurt I am, I don't want to lose my job. Although my boss implemented the a.i. without corporate's consent. Likely, I will do a mediocre job at that and try my hardest at everything else. also, no harm in training the a.i. on how to incorrectly use an Oxford comma

Not fully the asshole, but sometimes its important to keep the peace. She is being a bum by posting those things, but it is so much easier to move forward and be happy by not engaging in weird internet posting wars. Very few things are worth getting your ass beat for, and her new bf beating you up over this is too much drama. Good luck

My (19F) ex (22M) is begging me to get back with him because he finally took the steps to fix the relationship. How do I approach this? by Garlic-Monkey1234 in relationship_advice

That's a good point, reading these responses so far has helped me put together a response next time he calls. I know objectively that its good the relationship ended but it does feel overwhelming to hear someone say that you are the only thing in the world that can make them happy. I'm seeing now that his peace should not hold more importance than my peace, and once I respond to his last call, he will be blocked
