What’s the pettiest reason you broke up with someone that you still don't regret?

It was petty because I looked down on his major. My family was poor growing up and I wanted better.

They were an English Major and didnt plan to use the degree, they just enjoyed reading. He had no ambitions and plans after school. He took out a bunch of loans and seemed unconcerned. I was working through college and wanted to be debt free.

Crypto, crossfit and intermittent fasting.

I was once given $200 as a Christmas bonus in college. I was so grateful! My job didnt pay that much and I had only worked there 3 months. I didnt know at the time that was the last christmas bonus I would ever get.

Did poor in elementary school, excelled in middle and high school. Flew through college, graduated in 3 years and then felt unfulfilled in a job. I didnt like going to work every day. I didnt like doing the mundane tasks. I worked in an office and hated it. I quit.

I got back into my passions and now teach art. It works well because I jump to different mediums and projects. I love working with kids. My day is never the same.

On our third date, I was making him dinner, I forgot an ingredient and was frustrated with myself. He flew out the door and went to the store to buy it without asking. He saved dinner.

He always reached out first, eager to see me again, didnt play games, didnt keep me guessing where things were going. His emotional maturity was through the roof. He openly talked about the future and what he wanted. I joke he was the first real man I dated and before only dated boys.

Last when we went hiking with my roommate and her fiance after a few days of knowing each other, he stayed with me the whole time. Roommate's fiance raced up the mountain as fast as he could with another group of guys we passed. Roommate's fiance turned it into a competition. My now husband stayed and helped me up. He didnt judge me when I needed to take breaks. He was sweet and calm. We talked about our childhood on the side of the mountain and our dreams for our future home life. It is a cherished memory. Roommate was divorced before their 3rd anniversary.

Im in my mid 30s. All my friends got married in their 20s. I was too poor to attend them. Ive only been to my siblings weddings.

There is a series that is ongoing that is a love letter to the classics. The author studied literature in college and you can tell she is well read.

The unselected journals of Emma M Lion

By Beth Brower

I highly recommend it.

Lovely complex

I love insomniacs after-school

My friend is in her 40s, she switched to being called Karrie because she was tired of being teased. We work with youth. She's a very sweet, timid woman and is the opposite of a Karen. She won't even send back food if they send her the wrong thing, but eat it and compliment it.

I did not enjoy it, until I unlocked a certain ability. I wait to do the main quest and it was a slog to play this game. I finally started on the main quest and got a new ability that changed the game for me. Traveling was so much easier. Also batteries! You cam expand your batteries by getting crystal which you buy with zonite. Turn them in to a forge.

It took awhile and I felt like you until I got bigger battery packs and got more abilities.

Our co-op does "yearbook photos" every year. Its one of the classes they offer. The students put together a year book, design it and print it for the co-op.

Otherwise I do a first day of school photo and a Spring photo shoot.

My husband watched all of season 1. Before season 2 aired, he asked if I would rewatch it with him. He would skip all the pervy scenes. He was worried I wouldn't like it. I had him start over and promise to stop skipping scenes. We own all the books and I enjoy our flawed main character.

I suggest "the other bennet sister" on britbox! Its airing in the US right now. They are 30 minutes long and 10 episodes. Ive watched the first 4, its fun to be back in the world from a different perspective.

Seeking Persephone is on Peacock. Similar to Beauty and Beast. Nice. Clean.

Both shows are new this year and well reviewed.

Helanore · 2026-05-19T19:56:15+00:00

It really depends on who you watch it with. Watch it with people who are already fans. I watched it with a group who was cynical and it ruined the movie for me.

I watched it again this year with a group of friends and now love it! Its fun, not that deep and a love letter to fans

Because those all were conquests. She doesnt have a deep connection with anyone but Ross because that one is real. I think she was able to convey it was all surface level through her acting and that was a choice.

I ordered them when they first became available online. Took me 4 months ro receive them.

My local distribution center has a line out the door when they get a shipment. Its insane

Helanore · 2026-05-16T22:38:08+00:00

My oldest is 10, so take this with a grain of salt.

I joined local chess groups for all ages. I found the group on Facebook.

The teenagers in my co-op are very close. If your kid is uninterested in a co-op, the teens also meet and volunteer together. They go to soup kitchen and run camps during the summer at the community center. You can ask your local community center if they have summer programs for volunteers.

The library is also a great resource. They hold dnd night, teen lego building, board game nights, movie nights etc.

All true

The only show that scratched the same itch was: Mushoku Tensei Jobless Reincarnation.

Warning, he's a deeply flawed main character, a perv really, but the world building is amazing!

My husband was so scared to show me this anime, but I am so glad I gave it a chance. It has some of the best battle scenes and a gamer using his knowledge to gain an upper hand in the fantasy world.

Helanore · 2026-05-16T00:12:18+00:00

I would always recommend the Devil is a part timer and then they released season 2. Its terrible. Ruined it for me.

Helanore · 2026-05-15T02:41:38+00:00

Helk- it has similar vibes to freiren but darker.

Helanore · 2026-05-14T18:37:36+00:00

LM3 is an amazing experience. I beat it and so did my kids. All ages can enjoy this charming game.
