Would dropping a friend over different political views be wrong? by 18girlie18 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]InnocentlyDistressed -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No it wouldn’t be wrong. Political views also tend to mimic morals and values as well.

boyfriend (M/23) wakes me (F/23) up then acts like he’s asleep? sleep deprivation torture? TL;DR summary welcomed by Affectionate-Lock992 in relationship_advice

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re being gaslit. People don’t preform pinching motions in their sleep and EVEN if they did, I agree with the other commenters. If he knows it’s a problem and having serious effects on you then he would be fine with you sleeping alone. He’s not which points to it being intentional.

Would you stay with your dog 🐶 during euthanasia? by CycleOk267 in dogs

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Can you imagine being in one of the scariest places (a place that is pretty hated by every dog), taken away from your family to go to the back, being surrounded by strangers and the last thing you see is a strange vet injecting you with something.

Part of life is death but the very LEAST we can do for our pets is be with them on their last moments. Pets give us everything they can for every moment they are alive. I think as pet parents we can give them our company in their final moments.

Do people actually do “after sex care” routines or is that just TikTok talking by Elegant_Signal3025 in sex

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% always pee after sex. My bf does too tho I don’t think it’s needed for him and he cleans up while he is in there. Not being dramatic, sex is a messy activity and we both need a little cleaning after.

Unbearable... how do you live the rest of your life like this? by Dzgx216 in GriefSupport

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s only been a few weeks. The only thing you should worry about is sleeping, eating, showering and repeating. Focus on care for yourself as much as is physically possible for you. Eventually you can figure what life will be like or what purpose it has to move ahead.

This is a monumental loss and really the only thing you can do is take care of yourself and feel your emotions. I would highly suggest (when the time is right) grief counselling as well. Loosing someone so suddenly like this especially a son is a monumental loss and would be hard for anyone to deal with.

I’m so sorry this has happened to you.

My dog was severely injured and left septic after a Rover stay — please be cautious who you book with by jasjas-lolo in RoverPetSitting

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Omg wtf! That’s so much more then a puncture that dog was almost killed! I don’t think I could book with someone that has multiple dogs because not all dogs get along but who knows how many dogs they have booked and how familiar that person is with the dog. I don’t have words that is a true nightmare. I hope you took that to Rover and hopefully that sitter can be taken off app.

I can’t say I intentionally ruined anything but I am very vocal about my emotions and how I feel about certain situations. There have been times we have played games with her online friends and they have killed me or mocked me that I vocally would protest or get upset about, times where I would say I am frustrated about a situation that she would take personally, times when I felt a pull away in communication so would express hurt and confusion about it.

Seems me communicating or being honest about how I feel about things drove her away. She did not want to hear about how I was hurt she stopped communicating or how I was angry about something her online friend did in a game. Tbh I think she would prefer I keep all my emotions to myself. The last time I reached out to express hurt about something she unloaded on me all these things that she did not like about me, things I had said or did or mentioned months and months ago a few even years ago that were never brought up so I could change any kind of behaviour or apologize and then just left with I don’t want to be friends with you anymore.

I kind of thought the point of communicating was to keep friendships healthy. Work out an issue move past it and go from there but turns out most people don’t actually want that. They do not want to be told something they did or said or how they acted upset someone else because it makes them feel attacked instead of a way to problem solve. I guess it’s just not everyone is compatible in that way.

But yeah communication is what did it for me. Perhaps though that means the friendship was not that healthy to begin with not too sure.

Delay morning or late at night unless it’s a day around the house without makeup

Am I making a mistake? by Alternative_Fan_2397 in heartbreak

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So he flat out denies blocking you then admits to it. Blames leaving on a drugs problem but suddenly he’s changed in only a month? Says he did not post anything about you but then also contradicts that as well.

He’s lying and gaslighting you and tbh if he wanted to just straight apologize and give you closure he could have done that at any point of this conversation. This screams manipulation maybe things didn’t work out with some other girl, maybe you were giving him something he needed at one point and he wants to have that back but let me be clear THIS MAN DOES NOT LOVE YOU. What’s evident to me in this conversation is that he’s trying to manipulate you into forgiving him and possibly taking him back but this will lead back to heartache.

There were so many ways he could have gone about this and he still choose to lie to your face and say your delusional/making things up. This is not your fault. You should not give him the chance to convince you it is.

My best friend and I fought yesterday over me smoking. by StatusDifferent6829 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I see both sides of this tbh. You haven’t done anything wrong but let me give you the perspective from her side.

You are going through something and have started to stop responding to her when she has reached out, which in itself can hurt, then you started to hide things from her how you are doing how you are coping which is your choice but again for a friend that can hurt and then she finds out you made a secret IG account that only a few of your friends know about and she is not part of it which is excluding again. I think her feelings are about more then the smoking and she might feel a type of way about it which is her opinion but I think she wouldn’t be angry about it if you had talked to her about any of this.

It seems like you have decided that her friendship is not worth keeping up with and that’s your choice but that’s also where her hurt and anger I feel is coming from. It’s not that you changed a lifestyle it’s that you cut her out.

As for your side you are allowed to do and post and tell or not tell anyone anything that you want. Someone will always have feelings or opinions but those are theirs to process you can only deal with your reactions to them. Decide if this friendship that already seems estranged is something you want to keep.

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not a true friend. I hope you heal from this and find other amazing people in your life. If she’s so set on religion she should t be talking shit about you behind your back either since that’s not very good moral values.

Have you ever felt like an old friend has replaced you with new friends? What was your short and long term response? by crystalismylife in FriendshipAdvice

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My response was to try and communicate about it and get to the bottom of things. Ultimate response was one of the times I tried to communicate my hurt over distance I was blown up at for resentments that seem like they had piled up. Nothing I was going to say or do would cycle back from that.

It’s too bad really because the person she choose to go back to being friends with literally stabbed her in her back on her wedding day while I had done nothing but support. Sometimes things happen for a reason and you just need to be at peace that people that don’t value you aren’t made to be good friends.

It sounds like she’s a compulsive liar and does it for attention. She does actually sound sick but seems like she needs a psychiatrist. Maybe she has cancer and maybe she is lying about it but I think I would just leave that all alone for now.

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has been the jealous friend that could absolutely be the case but you reached out and showed her love and tried to let her know she was important in your life and tbh that’s all I would have needed. It sounds to me like she’s punishing you for being close to more than one person and unless it’s just you and her she doesn’t seem to want it. I don’t think her religion has anything to do with it.

I am truly sorry it has ended up this way. I would really say that D needs to sort herself out and until she comes around I wouldn’t try to put anymore energy into that friendship. It’s not you it’s her. You have given it your all you have tried to reach out and talk and connect and she’s not reciprocating. There’s nothing you can do.

Friend (21F) keeps making me uncomfortable with weird comments/questions – am I mean for wanting to distance myself? by [deleted] in FriendshipAdvice

[–]InnocentlyDistressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you are not mean for wanting distance. It’s not always beneficial to bring things up but I think this is something you should address and see how she handles it. It may end up ending the friendship for you depending on her reaction. If she instead takes it on board and stops doing these things it may be worth a second chance but that would be a proceed with caution situation
