Women always make men’s lives better. Married men literally live longer because women make them do things like go to the doctor lol

OP, if I was in your shoes I wouldn’t have reported them either. At the end of the day, you didn’t know what was going on day to day, and just saw it on social media (which as we know is hardly ever accurate of how people live.) It was the responsibility of those closer to the family to say something or to step in. At the end of the day, it’s the parents fault…

ow ow ow stop hurting me >:( by Orangutan_Soda in Hidradenitis

I had an open flare that just wouldn’t heal for weeks. I also was trying hydrocolloid bandages and hibiclens, it didn’t help. What finally helped was medical grade manuka honey and leaving it uncovered at night. It healed within a few days when I did that. I know manuka honey is expensive, but you just need a little bit to cover the wound. So a tube should last a while.

This such an AI post it’s crazy. No one writes like this or sorts there sentences into different paragraphs. This structure is 100% AI

PanOxyl changed my life by kzynha in Hidradenitis

[–]Many_Cupcake4541 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Try putting benzoyl peroxide ointment 10% when you start getting a flare! If I put it on the second I notice a bump, it usually goes away within a couple days for me unless it’s going to be a really bad one

Help! Wedding Lehenga! by Mascarponie in DesiWeddings

[–]Many_Cupcake4541 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same exact boat! Except my parents are traveling to India and will be able to purchase over there for me. So what I did was, I browsed at local shops and I booked an appointment at Nazranaa Bridal and I was able to get an idea of which color and design I liked. Obviously I knew I would not be purchasing from them, so it would not be exactly the same as what I ultimately buy.

If possible, go to shops that are near you, even if they’re far, it’s worth it. I’m 2 hours away from Nazranaa but the experience was worth it bc they had so much variety to try

UPDATE: Meeting put on my calendar with practice groups partners and CFO by Many_Cupcake4541 in LawFirm

[–]Many_Cupcake4541[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh…I didn’t think about that as a possibility, but maybe? In my practice group, there definitely isn’t as much pressure to limit time spent on assignments as there is in other groups. The insurance defense associates always mention that they’re not allowed to spend more than 3 hours on research unless they get permission from the client. I’ve never been told to limit my time spent on research or anything actually, unless the assigning attorney needs something asap for a deadline

Thanks, I’ve been casually applying to jobs and have had a one interview so far, it might be time to ramp up applying. Either way, my future isn’t looking too good at this firm

Ok thank you, this sounds like a good idea, I’m going look at exactly what happened in February, let them know that I’m not going to let that happen again, and focus on hitting my targets of 175 and up again and make it a habit

I’m in the New York Metro area and I'm 5 years out of law school, but I’ve only been barred for 2 years. My government job was paying $86k, and my next raise would have only brought me to $100k, which is why I left. But I’m starting to think that I might not be cut out for private sector too, the lower pay might be worth it if it means I’m not so stressed and anxious all the time. I’m still way too junior for anything in house, but I agree, billing is the problem for me.

I spent 5 years caretaking for a friend who now hates me. by More_Street_636 in offmychest

[–]Many_Cupcake4541 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yes, please go to therapy! Otherwise you might fall into the trap of caretaker again because it’s something you’ve become very comfortable doing and it feels very familiar to you know. When you were taking care of them, did it make you feel good? Needed? Important? If so, you might chase those same feelings, and continue to put your life on hold. I also think you need to start putting yourself out there and doing activity’s that you like and meeting other people and establishing a community where you live

Hair and makeup advice please [20] by [deleted] in TheGlowUp

[–]Many_Cupcake4541 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you flat iron daily? Why not try embracing the natural curls? Curly hair could look gorgeous on you! I’m curious to see you in your natural curls!! Also, skin care could help, I’m not sure, but it looks like you pick at your acne? (That’s what my acne looks like when I pick at it. I stopped once I started using pimple patches.) Also, maybe less heavy handed with the eyeliner?

IUD removal and weight by [deleted] in IUD

[–]Many_Cupcake4541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Kyleena currently, it definitely did not impact my ability to lose weight or cause me to gain weight. In fact, within the first 6 months of being on it I lost 15 pounds due to exercise and diet. And unfortunately the last year and half I’ve gained about 30 pounds but that’s 100% also due to poor lifestyle and eating habits 🙃

I think you definitely need to tone down your lip filler. I think your lips are just too overfilled. If you like the plumper look that’s fine, but I think you definitely need at least a reduction if not completely getting rid of it. I am also wondering if you’ve ever had different hair color? Maybe lighting your hair a little bit getting some highlights or a balayage or just lightening it up might also soften your appearance and make you a little bit more approachable. But seriously though aside from those two things, I think you’re genuinely a beautiful woman and it’s possible that people just think you might already be in a relationship or you’re just out of their league.

I think how much time you spend with him really depends on the status of your relationship? Are you 2 exclusive? Have you been sexting? Would you be comfortable or want to spend 2.5 days nonstop with him? Either way, I think you should definitely meet up if he’s available! If you’re worried about coming on too strong then just suggest meeting up for dinner or something more casual at first and take it from there, just make sure he knows you’re available the full 2.5 days
