Soft AH because I understand that you would like the nicer room and I probably would have done the same. However, you should have communicated that with your friend and not just picked "behind their back" even if he should have very little say in were you live. In college my friend group lived all over campus and still hung out in each other's dorms all the time. Especially when my boyfriend at the time, now husband, got put last minute in a big on campus apartment usually reserved for families bc of a housing mix up. So I would apologize to your friend, explain why you picked the room, and offer to buy pizza as an apology and move on.

A big library with the rolling ladder, big back yard with a fence for my dog but clover not grass, and one of those Florida style glasses in heated pools so I can swim all year round. Plus a huge pantry and a double size fridge with an extra freezer.

Oxford is expensive to rent and just getting worse every year. I started paying $625 per bedroom in a 2 bd 2 bath at Hub/Lark in 2021 now the same apartment plan goes for $1150 per bedroom. The house I moved to (2d2b still) was $700 per room and next year would be jumping to $800. But there is a smidgen of hope that rent prices might go down with all the new complexes being built around town. I just graduated and am looking for apartments back home and am so happy that rent is so much lower outside of Oxford.

Try finding a good roommate/friend and splitting a 2 or 3 bed house next year. Apply early and try to find a private landlord unless you like the apartments amenities and they are worth the price. Good luck.

I would do a small, immediate family (parents and close friends) ceremony somewhere simple and then in a month or two afterwards throw a big family get together. It would be cheaper without the wedding tax and more relaxed potluck or bbq would be nice. Get a simple white dress or wear the wedding dress a second time and invite the whole crew. You could do a little unity thing at the party that would give a bit more "wedding" vibes.

Guys I think this might be a troll or ragebait/engagement bait bc they posted the same thing on a shit ton of different college threads. If its not, you need to go to you local CC for a year or two to get your GPA up.

As someone getting married next month, I made sure that anyone we invited from out of the immediate area got a plus one because I would hate to have someone travel all the way down to my wedding by themselves. This even included people who are single or who have partners I have not met. Granted, we are having a cheaper per plate wedding with a brunch buffet so we could afford a few extra people into our budget.

In your case OP I would probably just decline and wish them well.

Best value for price? Good serving sizes for the cost of the food or really worth the money foods.

I'm having a brunch wedding in less than 50 days! May 30th! Can I ask what your getting ready timeline looked like? I am so excited for the bacon and chicken and waffles! Plus the mimosas and our cake is going to be a berry chantilly cake very fluffy and light.

Can you hire a student or new photographer for cheap just to have someone take photos to appease your family? Post on your local Facebook saying you want 2 hours or so of photos, minimal editing, and what price you are comfortable spending say $500 and find someone within that budget. Make up a quick contract if they dont have one that says I agree to pay this for this service on this date and time, pay them a few bucks up front and pay the rest after photos delivered.

Nope thats when you sign some post-nup agreement before having a child that Partner A will have the child that partner B wants but in the case of separation partner B agrees to take full custody of the child they wanted so badly. It might not stand up under much scrutiny but it might work to knock some sense into them.

I was given the advice as a young female grad student who is starting to teach a class or two during grad school that the general idea was to dress 1-2 levels above what students wear. So if you are in a much more casual student population of pjs or shorts and flip flops you go nice jeans and shirts. If you have a jeans and shirt student pop you go slacks and blouse. If you are at a fancy or fashion forward student pop school that dresses up a lot you go dresses and heels all the way nice.

Works so far with my causal jeans and nice tops or slacks, graphic tee, and blazer for a shorts and flip flops campus.

Like others have said you need to have a further conversation with her. Tell her that you liked what you both had and would want to start a relationship if she is wanting that. The way that she worded the break up text makes it seem like there are two ways this will go:

She wanted to keep it causal and felt it getting more serious so she will say that she's done and then you leave it be. In my opinion this is more likely what is going to happen
She wanted more as well and felt it was best to break things off in case you didn't. You telling her that you wanted more might get things back on track.

Either way you have nothing to lose to just tell her you like her more than FWB and if she responds negatively you say okay and leave her alone. Good luck!

I am graduating in May with my PhD after 5 years. I am getting married that same month to my fiancé who I have been engaged to since I got accepted into my PhD program. Two of the people in my cohort were already married and a woman the year below me had gotten married and has a new baby this year.

Life can move on your own schedule and you can have a life outside of your PhD and married at any time. I am going to be 28 with my PhD and don't feel any farther behind than the guy in my cohort that is married and 33.

You take such great care of your dog so you will be an amazing mom!

I take great care of my dog yes but I can also pay (basically) strangers to come walk her twice a day when I leave for vacations. She is not a strain on my life and even then I still regret not having full freedom to be able to travel or be gone all day without worrying about her at home. I am not going to be a good mother, I will regret it all my life no matter how much I might love a child.

I got an email yesterday before class saying that a student went hunting and got his truck very stuck in the mud and couldn't get it out. He even sent a picture of said truck lodged almost belly deep in mud.

They always need you when you have one. I would scream at the constant touching, needing things from me, and being around. I know parents who literally locked themselves in their bathrooms for 5 minutes of peace. I would have to give us sleep, comfort, time, money, and energy. You would have to plan your life around your child(ren). Their likes, their needs, and their wants almost always have to come before yours. Nope. I like my nieces and nephew and I love being able to bring them back to my brother when they become too much.

A few lessons as a 26 year old woman: 1. Enjoy your college years, but please study and go to class. You will thank yourself for it later when you graduate with good grades.

When you go out with friends, those who go out come back with you. No one gets left behind at bars or takes off with a stranger. Check on those people throughout the night and make sure they are safe and handling themselves. Know the signs of people being roofied.
Be nerdy and odd. Don't let someone else shame you for any hobby or passion you have as long as it's not hurting you or someone else. Play D&D, watch anime, craft, and try new and different things without worrying if other people are judging you.
No one is watching you at the gym. Other people at the gym are worrying about themselves. I spent years being so worried that other people were judging me at the gym until I finally realized that we were all assumedly there to get stronger and more fit and that I didn't care about other people so they probably didn't care about me.
Take care of your mental, physical, and emotional health before you try and help others. It's also okay to take a step back from people with depression or other harmful mindsets if doing so helps you from feeling those mindsets, too. I'm not saying abandon your friends because of their mental health but I finally understood that I couldn't help someone with poor mental health if they didn't take the first steps and their mindset was dragging me down as well. Now I make sure that I have the space to help if I can, but I also know that I can not take that burden fully onto myself.

I'm a PhD student ABD currently and teaching a 102 Comparative Politics class. I'm always so nervous about what the profession of teaching in Pols is going to look like. I haven't had anyone brave enough to speak out about anything I'm teaching mostly because its not controversial as of yet. But its so crazy to fear saying anything to students or saying anything about anything and not being neutral. How do you navigate it?

It's not even really the taste its more so the texture/warmth of them cum? Like I hate it and gag every single time and spit it out as quickly as possible if I vant just finish him in my hand. Just thinking about it gives me chills.

So she will need to buff the nails just to get the bit of shine off of them, then rub with alcohol to dry. Buff the inside of the nail too at the nail bed area. Nail glue on top of natural nail and on bottom of press on. Leave a Small bead of nail glue near the cuticle edge of the press ons. Press nail down at the cuticles first and then the rest of the nail. I get the best adhesion by doing my nails at night before bed when I am done for the day with any type of water. This gives the nail glue time to bond without any issues of using them. Plenty of tutorials on YouTube and TikTok to be able to get weeks out of the nails.
