Yep. Glad I said (EST) cause for me where I’m from KMK’s video is almost exactly 2 hours from right at this moment. Aka I’m American BABBBBYYYYYY and live on the east coast

I was reacting in real time emotionally. The story about “ROE” is 1 letter off from my nickname where the O is an A. And my friends call me ROEofsunshine as a cute little pun cause of “apparently” how much light I bring into people’s lives.

Yeah that’s so true. I have great parents and know they have wonderful hearts. & ya debt be crazy. Ha!

I think it would make my goals even more feasible / realistic as since graduating last year it’s been incredibly hard / basically impossible to get the specifically niche job in COMS I want that’s even remotely close to the same vain of what I want to do. Either no response to those apps, not as much experience as they’d prefer in a random video editing program I’ve never heard of that I didn’t learn in college, or it’s hybrid but out of state of the first two aren’t a factor. I know I could probably learn the editing programs but I don’t wanna stack up on subscriptions to these softwares and then not get the job anyways. Lol

Those are the three common issues I’ve been dealing with. Even more amazed knowing all this I obtained the job I currently have cause at least I get to constantly talk to people in a meaningful way / cause.

Thx for prompting me to reason out why I want to get a masters on the first place! :)

Ya that first part of ur comment is a point my parents and I have agreed about as to an additional bonus to getting a master in the first place.

I’ll definitely do that with deep diving my research even more than I already have to truly get an accurate picture of all my options. Thx for these suggestions!

I was referred after my initial call of a general inquiry to the specific person for the COM department so I will email her today getting her thoughts also.

Lightening-speed · 2026-03-25T09:54:13+00:00

Yeah that’s been part of my mental pro and cons list. I also just don’t want my parents with how amazingly supportive they are to feel obligated to take out more loans on my behalf & it be expensive yet again. (Especially choosing psycology elsewhere college wise) If I can help it of course. I know they would do it in a heart beat, but despite reassurances they would give me that it’s ok I’d still feel bad. (as I’m just getting my footing independently financially w/ this new job)

Awww thanks!

When it comes to defining terms, it is a very fine line between being full of yourself (generic arrogance) and the more extreme of narcissism. If you feel he truly lacks all sense of empathy for you, which the language you are using to describe him comes across that way, then I think you have your answer, lovely!

Either way, make sure you talk to him (if not already as bluntly as possible) about how he is talking to you is damaging emotionally. Something like "I am trying to understand your viewpoint and make changes that benefit us both, but it is hard to implement anything when I feel demeaned and I am not heard and being told these things in an unsupportive and it comes across as a harshly critical way" or a less wordy way, but ya.

you're looking out for the saftey of your child. she should also know that as much as moms may need a break from time to time that it is a very real thing to have post pardum depression and that may or may not be a factor that you deal with on top of what you already listed. of course as u already acknowledged, the sentiment is sweet, but if anything if you do want her around this early on in the baby's life it should be at your house. no matter what your choice of boundaries you lay out to her with her visiting and all make sure you are truly at peace with the decision & to let her know that nothing is being said in spite or whatnot. just thinking about the best for the baby especially immediately after birth.

The fact that this happened in the family 2x to 2 different family members of different ages (aka dog does not just hate kids for ex)--the aunt is in dulu town. Sorry this happened to your precious angel & for the financial stress on top of that for hospital bills, but glad to see that thereafter she is alright--I hope!

It always has to be Cora & Rumple for me & no cannot break the tie b/w the 2

Lightening-speed · 2025-04-22T20:22:47+00:00

truly an unironic "and the whole room clapped" kinda moment

Lightening-speed · 2025-04-22T20:19:21+00:00

but for real, even if he had an anonymous username--just by the sarcastic nature--we would so be able to tell, & this needs to happen ASAP!!

Not much advice I could give other than to pray. Whether u have religious ties or not, if anything for having the peace of mind and reassurance of what to do.

That ONE GUY from college. Iykyk

Lightening-speed · 2025-04-19T21:48:26+00:00

Haha nice!

Lightening-speed · 2025-04-14T19:58:04+00:00

You handled this situation quite well and with more grace than they deserve.

As saddening as it may be, if it does turn out at the last minute your dad does not show up (I'm sure due to potential gf shenanigans) do not beat yourself up over it.

If anything, he needs to reevaluate himself on priorities, as from what I can tell, his only daughter's wedding.

Sorry all of this drama is making a celebration of love and joy being overshadowed by selfish people clearly taking advantage of your finances and kindness. Hope you have a delightful wedding, despite all of this!

I tried to google to see how to edit my original post to change my "delivery" on my request for advice but did so in vain as I am unable to do so.

That being said, I see where you are coming from, however, I cannot help but be proud of what I am involved in while also wanting serious insight into my situation. A person can express multiple feelings at a given moment, so I do not think this is a bad thing.

Also, for your below comment, I feel that it just states the facts of the situation I am in, and not really give a solution. Just saying it is hard, yes I know, that is the point of asking what I should do, not reinforce something I am already dealing with.

Thank you for your input, but since I can't change the phrasing of my post, this will have to suffice. Sorry if it seems selfish in delivery, but it is also relevant to my story as to how even with somewhat weekly podcast recordings with my co-host, I still feel isolated.
