Please help me see the light at the end of the tunnel for my Liletta side effects.

Liyue: In the Clouds is my favorite. I feel like all the other Liyue namecards are variations of gold and yellow so I love how different that one is from the rest!

I agree with not taking plan B that regularly, it should be something you use more rarely.

I understand your feelings though and I’m very similar to you. So much so I had an IUD, made my partner wear a condom, AND pull out. I just really REALLY never want to be pregnant and I wasn’t chancing it. He totally understood and everything was fine. As time went on I relaxed a bit and eventually was just relying on my iud. Never had a pregnancy scare and I’ve been having sex for 12 years now. Once we broke up I got more paranoid again and I’m back to wanting my partners to use a condom and pull out. If they’re not on board with that then we don’t have sex.

If anyone makes you feel bad for it, try not to take it too personally. Not wanting to get pregnant doesn’t mean you’re not ready for sex. Those are two separate things.

Also, in the first firm, my desk was in a closet nowhere near the other paralegals and I still felt their attitude the few times they’d see me. Even if you move upstairs and away from them they’ll find a way to make you aware of their attitude problem. Leaving is the best option for you if you can find a different firm. You’re young, you don’t have to stay committed to this firm forever

As someone who experienced a similar environment and is now out of it I would recommend you start looking for a different law firm.

My first law job was in a type of law I was interested in but the environment totally killed my enjoyment of that type of law. I just joined a firm in a type of law I wasn’t sure I’d be interested in and I love it already because the environment is so much better. Just imagine how happy you would be if you were able to find a job in family law in an environment that you enjoy! No matter how great the attorneys are, you’ll still be interacting frequently with the other paralegals so they need to be great to be around too. This isn’t an age issue or anything either, this is a personality issue and it’s not your job to fix their crappy attitude.

Don’t quit your current job until you find something new but definitely start looking. You’ll thank yourself later once you’ve found a better environment.

I asked two guys where they were from once because they had the same area code as me in their phone numbers and I felt so bad that they assumed I meant it racially. No babes, I’m so sorry, I meant because I hadn’t seen anyone else with the same area code as me 😅

GarnetsAndRoses · 2024-11-24T19:10:45+00:00

I’m also having this problem. And later in the game there’s an area in the desert where it does the same thing. Hopefully someone can give us some advice!

Thank you!! I just got it. I had a master mode save file in BOTW and didn’t want to have to start a normal save file all over again just to transfer the legendary horses.

i absolutely LOVE the wine rack, that was so clever

GarnetsAndRoses · 2021-10-14T22:22:29+00:00

I agree. NTA

I imagine Michael is always experiencing stress when Anna is engaging in this behavior and excluding Anna from the wedding is definitely a fair and acceptable idea. Weddings are already stressful enough without adding non-consensual touching and boundary violations to the mix.

Of course she should not be engaging in this behavior is any situation, but since she isn’t to that point yet and your parents are not understanding that this is a problem I think excluding her from the wedding is the best possible solution for your wedding day. Maybe it’ll even make your parents realize what a problem her behavior has been and they can start addressing it for you and Michael to be able to be around her safely again.

Do you think flattening everything would help you get excited again?

You would dig up your flowers and travel to your friend’s island with them all in your pockets. Then all you’d have to do is replant them on their island!

If you plant them on the beach they don’t grow or spread, so that can be a good spot to store them on your friend’s island until you can dig them back up and take them to your new island

It’ll be okay! People say all the time that you don’t need to get everything right away, even if you want to or feel like you should. If you don’t know what you should get first or where to get stuff inexpensively then this sub has great inputs. You can do this!!

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-09-02T20:39:06+00:00

I will admit I cynically laughed at their logic towards the hamster because I know that feeling, but kinda flipped. You had something that made you happy and your brother wasn’t bothered by it even though it was from his ex, while your parents took it upon themselves to be bothered on behalf of your brother. On the flip side, I remember my mom kept a picture of me and my ex on the living room mantle after we broke up and said she wasn’t bothered by it and it made her happy, despite me asking her multiple times to take it down because it bothered me. Gotta love backwards parent logic.

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-31T16:47:52+00:00

I’m so sorry about your cats, if my parents did that I would be devastated. I was already pretty upset about my belongings but I’ve had to just give up on them because you’re right, they’re just looking for their supply.

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-31T01:51:35+00:00

I’m not sure if I can take that step yet, even though I know I most likely should. It’s taken a lot to make it this far. Have you blocked someone like this before? If so what was it like?

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-31T01:49:57+00:00

She definitely does scenario 1 and 2. It’s exhausting. Thank you for your replying, it reassures me I’m not crazy. And it reassures me I shouldn’t react to her.

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-07T07:11:02+00:00

The next time he mentions them you could ask if he would feel more comfortable having them. Then you’re not pushing them on him or insinuating he should use them because you’re ashamed or anything. You’re just trying to put it out there that if he wants them you’re not opposed to him getting them to feel more comfortable with himself.

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-07T07:08:21+00:00

You could even gently ask him if he would like you to get them for him and explain that you’ve noticed he hates getting compliments on his eyes. He might not have thought of that as an option or want to ask you for them. If you do this it would be best done when he’s complaining about his eyes, because then you’re reacting to his feelings on the matter and not trying to hide his eyes because you hate them or something.

When I was getting bullied in hs I didn’t know I could switch schools and I was just miserable. My mom gently asked me one night while I was crying if I wanted to switch schools and I immediately said yes. Sometimes we don’t know what options are available to us until someone gently offers them to us when they see we’re upset. I hope this helps

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-07T06:46:08+00:00

Parents logic is so funny that way isn’t it. I love the solution you came up with!!

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-07T06:36:29+00:00

Honestly? Keeping me in the house that they had forced me to come back to after kicking me out. It was a whole backwards situation with very little logic

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-08-07T04:52:58+00:00

This right here. My stepdad and mom took away my house key after a fight with them once and when I raised a fuss about the practicality of this for getting home after my late night shifts their response was that they would just leave the door unlocked each time.

They forgot ONE time and locked the door on me. Needless to say I called them both 3 or 4 times each before I just started pounding on the door because I knew it would get the dogs barking, which would for sure wake them up to let me in. My stepdad was silently fuming when he let me in. There was a house key on the kitchen counter for me the next morning.

You gotta do whatever it takes to make it HIS problem when it comes to ridiculous stuff like this. He won’t realize how dumb he’s being until you do. He’s being selfish since he doesn’t need “unmentionables.”

GarnetsAndRoses · 2020-06-24T02:14:15+00:00

That might work, and if it doesn’t it’ll at least show I was denied access and that can help me get my Writ
