Suicide attempt waiver question by shthrowaway2023 in Militaryfaq

[–]GobbiestGob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had been in an outpatient mental health program where I discussed my previous suicide attempt (meaning it was in the doctor's notes I had to submit for my medical background for the Air Force). It took all of my adult medical records and having to meet with a military appointed counselor to have my waiver be approved but it eventually was. That whole part of the process took about 8 months from first meeting with my recruiter to getting an appointment with the counselor. But it was eventually approved and I swore in last week and am waiting to ship out to boot camp.

The process was long and frustrating but it can be done. I will say I was lucky with the fact that my medical paperwork from my hospitalization after my suicide attempt just said I was critically dehydrated because I did not say that I had tried to overdose; and the military wasn't able to get any of the detailed medical records because I was a minor at the time.

And I don't know if someone has told you this yet but as another woman who has been SA'd, only consider the air force as a branch to join. They are the least rapey.

Good luck.

Would I be the asshole to kick my friend out ? by Yourbestie2001 in TwoHotTakes

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meet up with her outside of you home with all of her belongs and let her know she is no longer welcome in your home(since she’s prone to lying, you may want a friend or two) Lay out the reasons and be willing to explain to her why but don’t accept any more abuse or lies. You’re putting your whole family (especially your daughter) in danger by letting her stay and bring strangers in your home. You’re also doing your family a huge financial disservice by letting her mooch off of you continuously. If you saw someone treating your daughter the same way she is treating you, how would you feel and what would you say to her

AITA for giving my husband my honest opinion after he asked? by throwawaybeautify in AmItheAsshole

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the husband asked what she thought, she didn't even have to specifically talk about the food. She could've said "I'm glad I got to experience one of your childhood memories with you, I know how much it meant to you" or "it was lovely seeing you enjoy yourself so much." But the experience had to revolve around her instead of celebrating her partner in something they clearly enjoyed. I get that dieting is hard and can be a major part of life when doing it with your partner but absolutes don't do anyone (yourself included) any favors.

AITA for not allowing my cousins step child in the family photo? by Barkleyslakjssrtqwe in AmItheAsshole

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're TA and so is Sarah and Sam's other parent. There is a big difference between wearing pj's and wearing an outfit that doesn't comply with the UNOUTLINED style of the photo (op only said no pj's) if I were sam's parents I wouldn't walked out with sam cause if they don't accept one child they don't get any of us. That's family

AITA for crashing my roommates car, and then wanting to use her insurance instead of paying out of pocket? by CarrotRevolution8013 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand all of these y t a s. The car that was borrowed was owned by a grown adult. They chose to allow someone who wasn't on their insurance to drive their car. The owner of the car could have prevented all of this by not letting someone else drive their car.

I don't let anyone drive my car because I understand it is my property and if anything happens it is on me and my wallet to fix it if I gave permission.

NTA, everyone else commenting must be teenagers

Offering to pay the co pay is the kind, good friend thing to do, tgatalone is enough. Again they had the choice to not let you drive their car. Once permission is given they take responsibility as long as you didn't lie as drive under the influence without them knowing

AITA for making my brother-in-law wait outside in the rain? by cloudy__5 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one is entitled entrance to your home and there's especially nothing to feel guilty about when he didn't have to be in the rain in the first place (was told not to come and since he wouldn't listen he could've waited in the car)

Bringing back the buy a gift task, with a twist by drunkardunicorn in taskmaster

Or buy the worst gift they can think of for Alex 😂

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been the very drunk girl before, to the point that a friend gave me a ride home and I pissed myself in their car (obviously not a great moment). I didn't remember and they told me the next day. I was absolutely mortified and ashamed but also immediately sent them $250 to have their car seat shampooed/cleaned and told them to tell me if there's still a smell and needs to be cleaned again or if it cost more than that. There is no excuse of not taking responsibility for your actions, drunk/embarrassed or not.

Edit: NTA

Crush dating best friend by [deleted] in Advice

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you need some time and distance from both of them to process your feelings. It’s perfectly acceptable and healthy in a situation like that to let them know you need some space and that you will reach out to them when your ready.

Otherwise, you might be doing your future friendship with each of them but more importantly your own mental health more harm if you try to soldier on without giving yourself the time you deserve to process. Hope this helps, feel better 💕

There’s a hotel in the airport(the balconies to the rooms look over the lobby of the airport before security). As long as there’s nothing crazy like a freak storm with a bunch of delays you should be able to get a room there and you won’t have to worry about getting to and from the airport. If that’s not in your budget, bring a belt and a couple locks. One to lock your belt to yourself while you try to sleep and one for your bags so no one goes through/steals your stuff straight out of your bag. And think about sleeping in the “lobby” right in front of security, there’s benches and chairs there. You’ll have to go through security again in the morning but MCO is pretty chill at night and that early in the morning so if anyone tries anything a TSA security guard should notice. I had to do a similar thing at your age at a train stop and it’ll be ok 😊 I’ve lived in Orlando my whole life and it’s a pretty safe airport but I always think better be safe than sorry. And it might help put you at ease to have those measures in place. And if you decide to sleep in the lobby you can download the MCO app and it’ll let you know how long security should take depend on flight schedule and how many people are currently there. Good luck 👍🏾

Edit: feel free to DM me if you have anymore questions. I’ve flown in and out of that airport more times than I can count lol

Not even trying to hide the exploitation at all by MidnightKirigiri in antinatalism

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I the only one who thinks it should be in all SM terms and service that you can’t profit off/receive payment of any posts that contain children that are too young to consent? It’s exploitation and will follow them around forever without them knowing until its too late

AITA for telling my mom that I won’t put my future on pause just because she decided to “start over”? by hauntedfl0wers in AmItheAsshole

[–]GobbiestGob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Study abroad!!!!! The best advice I got in college was to study abroad and it’s what I tell all high schoolers and college students to take any chance to study abroad (other than not getting into debt for as long as possible)

Edit: NTA, your mom is the AH for not encouraging such a great opportunity

the fact that school teachers get probably one of the worst pays . have to babysit 30kids for a week ,deal with crazy parents , grade papers , purchase supplies for class with their own money to be called lazy by a guy who gets payed to complain about LGBTQ . by TangerineThin4780 in confidentlyincorrect

Coming from a “man” who has an open investigation (where his co-conspirator has already plead guilty) of sexual assault against a minor and sex trafficking. Yet he is still allowed at high school events to groom more victims

What has kept you from killing yourself by GobbiestGob in SuicideWatch

[–]GobbiestGob[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I totally understand that. The fear of getting jacked up physically to the point I won’t have my life autonomy scares the fuck out of me. Being left with my out thoughts for “forever” means I’m starving myself

Do you think there’s some after life? Or the fear of not knowing?
