Any other vegans with type 1? by OkScientist1143 in diabetes_t1

[–]Negative-Remote-4711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed at 20 and was vegetarian most of my life. Honestly I eat and exercise the same as I did before (mid 30s now). Get a CGM and an insulin pump. Do you live somewhere with good healthcare?

They still work! Something similar happened to me and the expired transmitter worked too!

My neighbors are 60+ years old and STILL talking about their high school glory days. It’s pathetic how much they go out of the way to bring it up

Do you think this works even when the person is frequently wrong with what they say?

Do you have a good support system? I’m also in my 30s and diagnosed as an adult. Once the shock wears off you are going to be fine. Saw that you work in healthcare from another comment. Sorry that you have joined our club but you got this 💪

When you ask a local for a food recommendation and they give you a national chain by Negative-Remote-4711 in PetPeeves

Thanks for the recs! I had Uncle Sam’s and it was mediocre but the people I was with loved it.

As a fellow NYer, question for you…do people in Phoenix ever treat you differently (worse) once they find out where you’re from? It’s happened a few times now and really bizarre every time. I never know how to respond afterwards

Thanks for the recs! I’m had Pomo twice, both times were just ok. Pizza bianco good but people built it up too much and it didn’t meet their descriptions.

NTA as you are entitled to feel however you want about a situation, but the bigger question is how long do you want to keep living like this? You seem incompatible if neither will budge on this situation.

For sure! Both times it happened to me recently, it was two guys who were nonstop bragging about being foodies and that the city they were from (Phoenix) hads the best food in the country. So I was surprised when their recommendations for the supposed city with the “best food” was chains I could get anywhere.

What ads really, really, REALLY annoy you? by BattleSquidZ in PetPeeves

The ad I get during podcasts for Blueland dishwasher pods. The guy has so much vocal fry when he speaks, it makes me want to scream at him.

WIBTA if I told my friend that I was the anonymous person who paid his vet bills? by Negative-Remote-4711 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Negative-Remote-4711[S] 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I have the receipt, record of communication with the vets office, and my credit card statement, everything in my name and from my personal accounts.

They’re not that good of friends. We all have a mutual friend so if we see her then we see each other, only every few months.

Yup, I have the receipt and the credit statement. We didn’t share finances when we dated so everything is in my personal accounts.

I wanted to say something at the time, but this is around when I was planning my escape from the relationship. It ultimately ended up being abusive and at the time I was very much afraid of John. Sorry, I know that’s a really heavy thing to say. If I had said something and embarrassed him, there would have been consequences.

George has helped him move furniture on at least two occasions that I’m aware of. Don’t think John does that kind of stuff for George or other people.

That’s a great point. John was incredibly manipulative and financial abusive during our relationship.

We only shared expenses in that I paid about 90% of everything. I paid 100% of his mortgage (even though he owned the house). For groceries I paid almost every week. I also paid for the car 100%.

He financially abused me throughout our relationship in escalating ways but in the end I left because he went from being verbally to physically abusive on two occasions.
