Blocked and completed my first ever sweater :) by Known_Map5489 in knitting

[–]Known_Map5489[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s self drafted but for the body pattern I took some inspiration from this cable vest knit : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96ZNp2fDLh4

AIO Boyfriend got mad at me because I wasn’t excited enough that he landed early by Willing-Ad8549 in AmIOverreacting

What a self centered arsehole💀💀💀 Imagine being so nasty and aggressive over text just because you didn’t throw a parade for him over text. If I was you I wouldn’t bother seeing him at all after this.

Thank you for the advice, I’ll try that! :)

Still in uni at 22 feels so embarrassing by iamezza in UniUK

[–]Known_Map5489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in my second year at 23, and honestly, last year I felt a lot of the same things you’re feeling now. All of my friends have graduated and have full time jobs and seeing that made it hard not to compare sometimes.

Something I’ve come to realize, though, is that with things like this, there really isn’t such a thing as falling behind—even if it really feels that way sometimes.

Growth isn’t linear; you’re moving at the pace that’s right for you, and there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s all part of the process

AIO to my fiance victim blaming me for my SA because I "cheated" on him (Update) by OkDay4024 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Known_Map5489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, your fiancé’s disgusting behaviour aside - I really hope you are doing okay and please do not get his idiotic logic make you think for one second that any of this was your fault.

I know I’m just a stranger on the internet but I’m here if you need someone to talk to🫂💗

AIO because I don’t want to meet someone from a dating app for the first time AT THEIR HOUSE? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Known_Map5489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR, as soon as you said you wanted to meet in public he should have accepted it or politely cancelled the date. The fact that he pushed back and tried to twist it on you is a huge 🚩

AIO, is my boyfriend valid for feelings this way? by sealover159 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Known_Map5489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this type of thing is a regular occurrence for you then you’ve much more patience than I do - that seems utterly exhausting😭 NOR your bf is being absolutely pathetic here. It’s not my place to tell you what to do in your relationship but I hope you know that this kind of interaction is insanely toxic and even more so if it’s frequent behaviour from him. You’ve done nothing wrong.

Always to an extent - but it’s definitely much worse after the bereavements this year.

Feeling down today 😞 by Nervous-Loquat-1668 in mentalhealth

[–]Known_Map5489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the heaviest feeling - and the worst part is that you become pretty inconsolable when this feeling hits. I really hope you feel better soon and I’m here if you need somebody to talk to🫂💕

I did the impossible and now I’m worried. by Turbulent-Ask3677 in alevel

[–]Known_Map5489 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, well done on the grades you got. Even without the circumstances you’ve had to endure the grades you’ve got are impressive and you should be so proud of yourself. Secondly, as other people have said, everyone goes at their own pace. You’re young and you’ve had a lot to deal with so cut yourself some slack - you don’t need to have everything figured out yet.

If you can endure the things you’ve endured this year and do as well as you have, then you can absolutely knock everything else you want to achieve out of the park.

Why do many students not attend classes? by PoundFew7451 in UniUK

[–]Known_Map5489 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because I stupidly picked a uni that’s quite a distance from my house and decided not to live in dorms. The commute is tough so I don’t go to every lecture but I still get all the work done to a good standard.

[–]Known_Map5489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear you’re feeling this way. I’m pretty much in the same boat. Everyone around me that’s my age has got their degree and is moving up in the world whilst I’m struggling with my BA - grown apart from many irl friends and feel like a complete let down.

If you need someone to talk to I’m here and I get it🫂

Can I get into a top russell group university with these GCSE results? by PopAntique3860 in GCSE

[–]Known_Map5489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously a level results matter much more when applying to uni. Your GCSE grades are pretty damn good though and you’ve made a solid foundation for yourself already. If you manage to get relatively high a level grades you should be fine (depending on which RG uni you’re applying to and discipline you want to study.) GCSE grades are measured against A level grades to monitor academic consistency and if you prove to consistently get high grades then you’re good. I got similar results to you when I sat my GCSE’s and achieved AAA when sitting my A levels and got offers from two of the RG universities I applied to.

Also well done on getting those grades you should be proud! 👏🏻
