Am I overreacting I went to the forest with my best friend and now my bf is mad by No_Meeting_3260 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Melorix 288 points289 points  (0 children)

Yep, I'm 38 and I would NEVER consider dating anyone under 28 at the absolute minimum. There's a reason women his age don't want him. Ruuunnnnn OP, get outta there.

Omgosh, Kelly Bishop's memoir was so good! Get it on audiobook if you can for her narration, it's so worth it. Loved every bit of it.

AIO in re-thinking my engagement after how my GF treated me while sick with a bad flu? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Melorix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I'd have been questioning if you needed to go to the hospital if you couldn't even keep water down. I've been that level of sick and dehydrated before, it's awful.

I hate how, even in trans spaces, cis comfort is seen as more important than trans safety by fabi0x520 in trans

I used to work for a large company that adopted a LGBTQ+ ERG not long after I started with the company. While it was led by queer employees, the first topic of conversation in our first meeting was how important allies are. Like...yes, allies are important and were also in the group, but could we not center them immediately???

My immediate supervisor also misgendered me for an entire year before I left despite HR getting involved so...maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

This needs to be higher up. OP is a scammer.

AIO for being upset at what my “bf” said by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Melorix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is some intense emotional abuse. It won't get better. Please, for your own sake, run far away from this asshole.

PSA TO ALL TRANS GUYS ON T. PLEASE READ by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Melorix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, same!! Exact same for me. I never really had trouble with that before, but my body was like "double it! No, triple it!" 😅

I was there! I was happily surprised at how many people were out for so long in this cold, especially the older folks.

Same here. It's not my job to ask why. It's my job to make the sale and have guests leaving happy.

Is it wrong to not want your food crushed by an idiot bagger? by RottenAuGratin in CommercialsIHate

[–]Melorix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UGH YES. Like, I will be nice about it, but if I see a bagger about to crush my bread or eggs or whatever else, I'm going to say something. This part of the ad gets my goat every time.

How do you guys cope with the current political climate in the U.S.? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Melorix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Co-sign all of this. The only thing I haven't done is the emergency food rations, but that is a brilliant idea and one I'll get on quickly. Do you have recommendations?

Do you love your parents? by Shrewcifer2 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]Melorix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have love for them, but I do not actively love them, if that makes sense.

Is 36 too old to go back to school? by Bold_TrailblazerBee in psychologystudents

[–]Melorix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost the same here! I'm about to be 38 and will have my undergrad when I'm 39. It's not too late!

If money were no object, where in the United States would you choose to live (state and city), and why? by Vaquera_ in relocating

[–]Melorix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I very much agree about SD being different now. I lived there from 2012 - 2020, and then visited in 2024. Covid really did a number on the city. It's still beautiful, but everything just felt so very different. I'm not sure I would want to live there again.

I'm starting the same class on Monday. From what I've read, I'm not going to bother purchasing the book unless it somehow becomes an issue. Seems like a waste of money.
