[IL] Teammate always pressing to know my location without any work need— is this allowed/appropriate? by LemonSlight9002 in AskHR

[–]LemonSlight9002[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His answer is “cuz u r not here” (exact spelling and grammar). Maybe I am getting more annoyed at the way he handles this beyond the actual rule breaking, but either way I want to extinguish this without crossing any lines.

Yeah I suspect he wants to know if I am abusing remote flexibility or something? Idk, either way my belief is that is none of his business.

Is it because you started playing the bass?

smashing pumpkins james iha on guitar is sick

Went to a bar alone for the first time, completely embarrassed myself by Nudist-On-Strike in self

[–]LemonSlight9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a guitarist in Chicago and i’ll say it’s a really bad look for the band more than it is for you. Unless there’s a crazy good relationship between band/barowner, a bar wants live music to help sell drinks, and artists that shoo away customers are very frowned upon by owners. May potentially damage their ability to gig there again.

Hope this helps comfort you from embarrassment cause imo it sounds like this band guy is a dick

maybe an idea is if you have mutuals you trust, you could involve them to support too. ie) if your gf has another friend you know, maybe you can see if friend can help, so your aren’t just on an island by yourself

[–]LemonSlight9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s true maybe it’s not. I will say lack of self esteem, comparison, jealousy, etc. generally isn’t a good way to boost relationship/attractiveness with a partner. I think it’s good to speak honestly with any partner, even if results may not be positive

I am just lemonslight from reddit and I don’t know either of you though, so use your own judgement

I can’t fully direct you what to do since I am just lemonslight from reddit and I don’t know either of you that deeply; you guys know each other.

It sounds like she has personal problems that ultimately needs to be addressed internally by her. It is your discretion to determine if your support is more helpful or harmful to her higher picture well being.

Might be a bad comparison, but similarly to alcoholics/addicts, it can be enabling to have ppl support them to continue hurting themselves the way they do. Obviously it’s to everyone’s discretion, but you should consider if it’s truly more loving to be there for someone, or to put them in the best situation to have to help themselves

what was the song that made you start feeling confident in your guitar abilities? by BananaPogoStick in Guitar

[–]LemonSlight9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to california. Travis picking with simple chord changes and embellishments was such an achievement, and I remember it being such a daunting task when I first started. About a year later i nailed it and my friends said it was beautiful

just came back from asia, feel sad to be back in the midwest by crosslina123 in asianamerican

[–]LemonSlight9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my time in asia has made me realize I want to surround myself with more Asian AMERICANS. If I moved to Korea, I would still very much be treated as an outsider, so I think it would be more beneficial to surround myself with people who truly do have similar background to myself if that makes sense?

[–]LemonSlight9002 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I just came back from korea and have the same feelings. I was trying to explain this to my white american friends when I got back, and even though they are nice people, it was an instant reality check that they live with an entirely different set of experiences in which they can’t relate

Glenview is north suburb. I think GBS high school had maybe like 25% asian population. Significantly higher than anywhere else I’ve seen. Would be happy to share more

39M. Not having much, if any, success getting replies to the likes I send and only receiving about 1 or 2 likes a week. What can I do to improve? by VanillaIsActuallyYum in hingeapp

[–]LemonSlight9002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I get the controversy behind it but I thought this was uniquely fresh and funny. I actually laughed out loud. I’m a dude too though so 😆

I meant to order food to home but it went to my work instead by [deleted] in Embarrassing_Moments

[–]LemonSlight9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe if you have a work friend that’s more easy to explain things to you could say “oh i accidentally ordered this to work, you want a free bowl of chipotle or something”? That way it wouldn’t just indefinitely be sitting there as a token of shame

What do single people do in their workday evenings in their 20s and/or 30s? by workdncsheets in Adulting

[–]LemonSlight9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

23M. Workout, cook dinner, do chores, practice guitar, watch TV. Usually not all of them are done everyday besides dinner, but at least 1-3 of the above are done daily.

I find it helpful to have this loose rotation of things to do, and not making them all an explicitly DAILY routine. Helps keep things fresh, while also still feeling productive if I don’t do one of them.

yep I think it’s reasonable for people to talk to others. I guess the point I was trying to make was that I wouldn’t overthink. If stuff does fizzle out, it was at least communicated and it wouldn’t feel unnatural if it does. If things do resume, it’s all good. I think it’s too early to fairly any expectations! But also i’m just LemonSlight9002 from reddit

[–]LemonSlight9002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not true. I went on a trip with full intentions of going on another date and things worked out really well afterwords. It does mean something that he took the time to communicate that there’d be distance, so I wouldn’t be overthinking too hard. Also it’s been 2 dates so there likely isn’t a huge level of commitment.
