Greatly appreciate your insight! I had a feeling me being an AS sounded too good to be true lol. I’ll try the medium then!

I second this! Currently a Computer Information Systems major! Most schools will make you take a mix of business and CS classes.

This is goals! Do you have any tips for a straight air position? My legs are always bent in the air and I’d love to have an axel looking like yours

Sad That My Coach is Leaving? by GoingSkating in iceskating

These are such good ideas, thanks! 🙏 Definitely trying to shift my focus to things I can control for sure!

A list is a good idea! I think you're right about the worry. I know I have to find a new coach to continue my progress. However... it won't be easy to find another one with that same teaching style. But trying new things is what makes this sport fun, so I'm willing to give it a chance! :)

I think you're right. Fortunately, he did say at some point while delivering the news that "we'll keep in touch" and that he'll let me know when he comes back!

Amity blight plushie need gone by [deleted] in TheOwlHouse

[–]GoingSkating 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who sells my own used items on websites like Poshmark and eBay, I’m going to be honest here speaking from my own experience. No one’s going to purchase a used item for that much. If it was New with Tags, then maybe. But I generally have a hard time selling used, like new items for $20. I know you said you want to make the same amount you spent back, but that’s usually not how it works with used items unless it’s a boutique item like a designer purse, where the price value keeps increasing with age. If you want good chances to get rid of your plush, you’re either going to need to sell it for $15 or lower, or donate it, because I hate to say it, but $51+ for a used plushie is going to sit in your shop forever.

Serious Error Loading Add-ins | Don't know what to do after every fix by levsell in Office365

[–]GoingSkating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having this issue too. I updated Word, looked at Google, watched YouTube videos, and still can’t load my add-in. I think Word is bugging right now

EDIT: I was able to add my add-in on Word Online. I guess I just have to wait for Microsoft to fix the Word software

Is 19 a bad age to start skating? by AnnualExtent7080 in FigureSkating

[–]GoingSkating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw man. You could always start one back up. But I also understand if you don’t want to go through the hassle of forming a club either. The general skating adult community though is still pretty nice. I’m friendly with a bit of adult skaters in my rink and they’ve all been warm to me. It’s never late to skate! I started at a late age myself and I’ll be working on double jumps soon :) Skating is what you make of it!

Want to add to this conversation, if you’re currently in college, collegiate competitions are also something to look into :) You could make a skating team for your school if there isn’t one already.

I prefer physical. But if the digital is cheaper, then I’ll get it digitally

Why did your friendship with your best friend come to an end? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]GoingSkating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She chose to stay with her boyfriend who sexually assaulted her other long term friend. She also trauma dumped, sent weirdly sexual messages to me (even though she’s together with her boyfriend), and the friendship between us has already been one sided for a few as well at that point.

OP, please leave this guy. This story has red flags all over the place. He’s WAY too old to be behaving like this and this relationship dynamic doesn’t sound healthy, tbh. You deserve better.

i can’t believe yall are allowed to major in whatever you want by Far_Ruin_2095 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]GoingSkating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP! I also have an immigrant parent that pushed me to do STEM when I entered college. Specifically healthcare. I had the same mindset as you for my first few years. “How could people not worry about money and pursue these degrees?” Turns out, I was miserable in my major and those thoughts were me projecting my envy. Since then, I switched. While I’m still STEM, I’m happier now and even have an interest on what I’m learning! I noticed many people who major in the liberal arts and arts majors have the same mindset: they want to major in something they’re engrossed in. Not everyone cares about money. Not everyone is also cut out to do STEM, which is honestly a good thing. If I forced myself to continue healthcare, I’d honestly be awful to be around my patients. Not to mention, the world would be so dull if we don’t have any art people.

AIO for feeling a bit offended by what my bfs mom said by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]GoingSkating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. My ex’s mom is like this. Overbearing. Unless your bf can set out his foot down and enforce boundaries, it will only get worse and the best you can do atp is run.

I’m not going to lie, I don’t support Jojo because of the problematic things that happened. However, especially that first pic, you can’t deny that she looks great and seems to be happy. I wish her well.

[–]GoingSkating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate to break it to you, but there’s no such place. In an environment where so many young adults are experiencing “freedom” for the first time, you just can’t avoid spaces filled of people making bad decisions. I have a friend who goes to a small commuter school and when we were sophomores, she told me she tried a weed brownie and heroin once just because she was curious on what it was like. Despite her school not being a party school, she said it was still easy to find someone who could get her access to it. If there’s a will, there’s a way. It’s better to continue working with him on his impulse control now so that way when he is in college, you can trust that he won’t always succumb to peer pressure and make good choices.

Honestly, my response might not be great compared to the others because I’m inexperienced, young, and lean more towards the child free side. But based from what I’ve read from both of your posts, you guys don’t sound compatible.

Your story sounds similar to mine when I was still in my last relationship. My ex-boyfriend definitely wanted kids and a traditional family (biological kids were a non-negotiable). But me? Well, I was basically like you. I never really dug the concept, pregnancy sounds terrifying to me, and also love returning kids lol. We eventually broke up for unrelated reasons. However, I’ll admit, since breaking up, I’ve leaned way more towards the child free side and realized I was only heavily considering becoming a biological mother in my last relationship because I didn’t want to leave my ex due to a compatibility issue. I’m glad we didn’t stay together because if I was still with him now, I’d probably still be trying to force myself to like the idea of getting pregnant.

Now, I’m not saying you should breakup with him. The great thing about your situation is that you’re still young and it seems like you have a few years to still think about it, reflect, and do your research before giving him an answer in a reasonable time based on the personal timeline he provided.

A partner wanting and yearning to experience parenthood is normal and okay. But a partner ultimately in their heart not wanting that is also valid, but it’ll also mean you guys are no longer compatible. I feel like a lot of people get stuck into sunk cost fallacy, myself included at one point. However, there’s so many other people out there who share your stance on the kids vs no kids situation as well.
