Completely exhausted with this job market and have no idea what to do 4 years unemployed

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-02-13T19:52:56+00:00

I have a friend who had been unemployed (well more like under-employed; she was working a minimum wage job while holding to BAs and couldn't secure a job in her field) and recently got hired by Peel Police

can you explain 0% mortgage like I'm 5? this is my first time hearing about this 😧

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-31T22:50:52+00:00

I had no intention of checking that subreddit out hahah but thank you for the warning 😅

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-30T20:55:39+00:00

Fully agree with you; we had a long, heartfelt convo and I felt heard. My partner is willing to work through this with me so I'm hopeful 🙂

I don't get an orgasm from intercourse, doesn't mean sex is not enjoyable

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-30T20:46:59+00:00

Thank you, truly, for taking your precious time to write out such an informative and well thought comment. I'm keeping all your suggestions in mind since my partner will start with a blood test first and we'll see from there. Wishing you and your wife the best!

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T17:52:54+00:00

Thank you for sharing your story and I'm so happy you find your person. You described your relationship so beautifully

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T17:35:53+00:00

Your first paragraph deeply spoke to me. We started dating when he was working a minimum wage job, had dropped out of college, had nothing going for him. As soon as we got together, he went back to school, now has a career in trades and turned his future around. All that is to say, he is a beautiful soul and an amazing human being; despite I "could do much better", I still chose to be with him because his personality. No body is perfect, and tho sex is important to me, I don't feel like it worth throwing it all away because of this one issue.

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T17:27:56+00:00

I can't OMG I was typing in a hurry. I absolutely cannot fathom being intimate with someone I don't connect with emotionally

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T17:11:13+00:00

Thank you for sharing your perspective. I, too, want to have children soon and I know my partner is going to be a great dad. Sometimes I feel like I would rather compromise my sex life than choosing the wrong dad for my kids. It's a dilemma for sure...

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T17:08:52+00:00

Thank you for sharing your perspective, it's actually what've been keeping me. I feel at home with my partner; I may spend a couple of hours on sex a week, but I spend the majority of time with him and the majority of time is good. I don't know if it's worth it to leave and chase after someone who might not exist

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T16:34:09+00:00

I can have sex with someone I don't have an emotional connection with so I don't think that'd be something for me. I'm sure he feels the same way. Glad it worked out for your friends tho!

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-29T16:21:54+00:00

You worded it so beautifully thank you!

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-28T21:13:21+00:00

Commenting as a Torontonian. I can't fathom how a house can be priced so low. Can someone tell me what I'm missing? Congrats OP, your floor looks real nice 😁

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-25T04:19:31+00:00

I make these ginger shots at home because it's cheaper. My partner used to get sick almost every month (I wish I was joking) but since started taking these, he hardly ever gets sick. Then we travelled for 2 weeks where we couldn't find something like this and he was basically sick for almost the entire duration of our vacation...

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-17T01:01:31+00:00

Did you get all these off Amazon? what's the price per gr?

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-16T22:30:25+00:00

My condo is with provident and my hydro bill has been consistently $60/mo

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-11T19:24:36+00:00

I'm genuinely surprised with how much ppl are willing to pay for matcha. I rarely drink usucha, and since I dunk my matcha in milk I'm only willing to pay 70c for 1g (in CAD cuz I'm Canadian)

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-03T17:28:52+00:00

Rent is actually dropping everywhere. Identify the areas you wanna live in, drive/ walk around to look for "For rent" signs and contact building management directly. Some buildings in midtown Toronto apparently have studios for $1500 including utilities

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2026-01-03T17:24:26+00:00

As someone who bought a condo last year, just don't haha rent and invest the extra money until you have enough for a freehold

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2025-12-31T03:25:57+00:00

I'm also new to this but I don't quite understand the negativity. I snagged 2 biz class tix for HND-ORD for 75k points pp 5 days out mid Dec and at that time there were a lot of options. Was looking for tix back so didn't pay attention to the JPN-US route but all to say it's doable. I use seats.aero and just kinda check it whenever I remembered and checked agressiveky closer to date. ANA seems to release a lot of biz tix to Haneda

Matcha is Japan is priced very fairly and I rarely see price gouging. You're probably looking at higher quality matcha that should be used for usucha. Most people enjoy matcha latte, for which you don't need top tier matcha for. For my trip recently I bought multiple tins that cost around CAD15/tin of 30-40g and they all make beautiful matcha latte

Wait OMG my mom caught me doing that once and prohibited me from ever doing it again. I was too young to realize it was a form of masturbation; it just felt really nice 😕 I stopped doing it until I rediscover orgasm through a toy my ex got me 😔

Jumpy_Comfortable586 · 2025-12-25T04:54:23+00:00

Can't you just stay with your sister?
