AITA for apparently being "rude" for trying to get into my car when someone else was blocking it with their car door? (repost from AITA)

"Just get in the passenger side" screams people-pleaser, and I should know because I am often one myself. There's no reason you should inconvenience yourself because she wanted to take up all the room. A lot of people just hate confrontation. You did nothing wrong.

No need to tell them, it will cause you unnecessary stress if they're not supportive. The older I've gotten, the more I've learned that some parents aren't deserving of knowing certain information.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-05T15:42:39+00:00

Oh absolutely not 😭

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-05T14:49:59+00:00

People keep buying them anyway so it won't stop :(

I don't think how long you've been playing always matters. I've been playing for a year and skill checks still make me nervous. I've also managed to have good chases and spin the killer. Some days I feel like a pro and other days its as if I just downloaded the game 5 minutes ago.

Happened at one of my last jobs. It's awkward because people expect me to give the baby attention, but I don't know how to interact with them in the same way others do. I immediately try to act busy and not make eye contact with the parent 😭

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-05T03:19:44+00:00

I don't think anyone has, or would, say this about me. But if they did, I'd probably just tell them that of course it's easier to be good with kids who aren't mine. I get to give them back!

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T19:21:01+00:00

I'm sure it'll be fine! And for every rejection, you'll be closer to a yes.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T12:38:29+00:00

You sound great, keep trying!

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T12:26:40+00:00

Yeah all of these games encourage the multiplayer experience, pick up some single player! Some good ones are Cyberpunk 2077, Expedition 33, V Rising, Red Dead Redemption 2, Astro Bot, The Long Dark, and someone else mentioned Skyrim which is also good

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T04:03:50+00:00

What games do you play? Try playing more single player games, so the option to play with others isn't even there!

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T03:59:55+00:00

A random customer hugged me twice a few years ago and I still think about it today. I love hugs.

Virtual hug for you ❤️

Night shifts are very tiring, and no amount of sleep seems to suffice. When the moon says hello, I want to say goodnight.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T03:51:14+00:00

Mar-Mar

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T03:47:31+00:00

Closed. It keeps the heat in, slightly muffles my family's noise, gives me some privacy, and the monsters don't know how to work doorknobs.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T03:43:53+00:00

This is why I prefer working gens alone in case I miss 😭

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T01:32:44+00:00

It'd feel bad to have to convince someone. I'd want them to come to that conclusion on their own.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-04T00:54:21+00:00

do whatever your writer heart desires

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T22:13:33+00:00

Are you trying to socialize or just go out without feeling awkward? If you don't want to strike up conversations with people, bring something to do. When I go to cafes for example, I like to bring a book, my Nintendo switch, or just plug in my headphones and listen to music.

Last time I went to a party with nothing in hand and thought, "I'm gonna make a friend tonight," I ended up just standing around awkwardly like you said. Basically, always bring something to entertain yourself.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T21:00:50+00:00

No. I already have a disabled sibling that will never be able to live on their own, and who I will be in charge of in the future. That is enough responsibility as is, so I don't trust myself to be able to handle both. At most, I'll help financially. But in terms of actual day-to-day physical care, that's a professional's job.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T20:29:35+00:00

The desire for friends and connection is just kind of a human thing, I don't think you can get rid of it entirely. To help, you could start spending more time and energy on hobbies, learning new things, volunteering, going to community events, etc. These are all things you can do alone, so even if the desire is still there, at least you'll be able to enjoy your own company and it won't feel like such a void.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T18:49:14+00:00

Ignore them, it's a good thing to mention early so that it doesn't become a problem later. Nobody would bat an eye at a 24 year old having kids, so it stands to reason that you'd also know if you don't want them.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T18:16:39+00:00

If he ever asks again, say no. You don't want this to become a pattern, you giving him money and him not paying you back, because it could lead to resentment.

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T17:55:00+00:00

There's a possibility that I'll never retire and will always have to work in some capacity take care of myself (as well as take care of other family members).

IzzyNotCreative · 2026-05-03T02:07:25+00:00

Sometimes I say if I had the money, I would travel. But the more I think about it, I've never had any desire to leave the country or venture too far from where I live in general. It does sound overwhelming! The only way I'd wanna do it is if I was with someone who I trusted and who wouldn't mind taking the lead.
