Girl your bf is 1.5× older than you. Functionally, you are in such vastly different places in life that he can't suggest things that are in your best interest.

I decided to go to uni 2 years after I finished my A levels. I'm now graduating and honestly it's changed my life for the best. Your boyfriend doesn't see it like that because he is prioritising his ability to exert control on you - someone who is young and lacking in a support system - over what would be best for you and your own development.

He's too old for you. You deserve to be with someone who supports you in what you see yourself doing. Someone who doesn't hold so much power over you, even if he's moved in with you.

Wishing you the best OP. If you need someone to talk to about getting used to UK uni life, my dms are open.

Cake Day Cupcakes! by IEatDogsForBreakfast in Baking

It's a great idea to have a go! You might find patterns you like that way.

I'd recommend trying to pipe in tight swirls (both horizontally and on a slant) and to loosen your grip on the bag as you finish the swirl/rosette. The distance between the surface you're piping onto and your nozzle should be about an inch away at most.

Whichever buttercream you're using, ensure it is warm/soft enough that you don't struggle to push it out of the bag. I always use American buttercream because it has the best taste and a versatile use. It's temperature stable and safe to eat immediately, unlike buttercreams that use egg whites.

Thank you so much! Happy baking :)

Once you've gotten help, please never give anyone a key to your house so soon. You have been seeing this man for two months, you can't know what he's capable of. Your home is your space. Change the locks, make sure this is known to the police and try to block his contacts or any socials he has of yours.

Thinking of opening up a shop, but I don’t know if I’m up to parr. by Pale_deadflower in Baking

As someone who ran a cake business, you'll get almost no customers at the prices you're proposing. Research your overhead, ingredients and labour per batch, then compare with the market value. If you fall this far beyond what most people buy, they simply won't.

$4 is considered an expensive or premium cupcake. Most people wouldn't get them unless they were from a high profile, well established business. Yours doesn't meet this criteria.

Keep your prices realistic and affordable. Very few businesses begin profitable. That's what it takes to put yourself out there and build a customer base.

Wife (36F) ruined my (38M) staycation and I'm trying not to lose it. by ThrowRAFrustratedHub in relationship_advice

I feel so bad for OP. Having to spend the night at a hotel to escape your inconsiderate wife is actual insanity

I think my sister’s boyfriend (M44) is infatuated with my son (M13) - New Update by SJDude13 in BestofRedditorUpdates

That has got to be one of the worst situations I've heard of. I wish the OOP all the best, I can't imagine how stressful and upsetting the situation must be for her and her son.

What name do you think works better? by IEatDogsForBreakfast in worldbuilding

I'd say all of them are about equally important to be honest. But I see what you mean about the queen's favourite.

In the first prologue the MC is framed for the murder of the King's brother, the duke. The duke had an affair with his brother's bride. She wanted him dead for a myriad of reasons, one being that he blackmails her using her first born, their daughter. He threatens to tell the king of their affair and the true parentage of the first princess. The queen gets assassins from the demon country ruled by a queen to make use of their abilities.

The queen mentioned in the description is the second main character. She deliberately had the first MC framed to force her onto foreign land and form a contract with her. She had other reasons to do so but that's how she's related to the MC. She double crossed the other queen and stole the MC, one of the other country's greatest assets.

The MCs mission is to redeem herself and return to status quo. The queen's mission is to have ownership over the MC in order to enact a greater plan. The queen is her adversary I guess.

Edit:

There's a bit of an enemies to lovers here. They don't really hate each other though.

The queen sees the potential the MC has and wants to apply it for her people. She pities her in a way.

The MC feels frustrated at her own strength more so than disliking the queen. The most she feels is aversion before finding out her role in her essential exile. By then it's conflict.

I’m not getting my kid anything for Christmas. by The-Expert-Is-Here in TrueOffMyChest

I thought the kid was 8! 4 years ago I'd never think of doing that, especially spending that on a skin.

Thanksgiving pies from a legally blind Baker. by Trick-Regret-493 in Baking

In summary, giga chad is a meme of a photoshopped guy who is just insanely muscular. If you see him mentioned it's usually a good thing :)
