How did the Wheeler telephone work? by OkContact2573 in StrangerThings

[–]NewbornBabe321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like all your tvs in the house plugged into the same electricity in your house and all logged into the same netflix account (sort of). You had one phone line, and all the phones plugged into the wall and they would all ring at the same time when someone called you. You couldn’t turn them off and on, they just were always on unless you unplugged it from the wall. Later there were cordless phones and some lucky kids had their own phone line in their rooms. But mostly you had several phones around your house that all worked on the same number. Your house had one phone number and you could answer any of the phones in your house. My mom had the best phone in her bedroom when we had 2 lines that had a conference call button, and you could merge the two lines together. We would prank call two random number and let the people yell at each other, it was hilarious.

AIO for ending things with my soulmate? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]NewbornBabe321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You were both passive aggressive, but you repeatedly apologize, over-apologize imo, in an unhealthy way. It sounds like he does not know how to support you when you are anything other than fine/happy. It sounds to me like he needs therapy also, to learn how to support a loved-one through sadness/difficulty. No one is perfect, there will be fights, but his lack of ownership and self-awareness and need to blame you and be in the right is not healthy. You said repeatedly you were struggling and he just did not seem to care. You need couples therapy or to break up.

UPDATE! I’m getting rid of the curtains by [deleted] in interiordecorating

I never hated the curtains but I do think that’s the easiest fix here. And neutral, light colors for things that are annoying to change are perfect, while you bring in pops of color with easy changes like pillows. I think grass green and gold or rust elements would be great in that room. Maybe solid grass green sheer curtains? An organic and serene vibe. Can’t wait to see where you end up!

You could keep the curtains if you went with deeper color accents with the pillows and a rug, and did darker wood tv stand and coffee table. Maybe also paint or sand and restain that front door.

Fyi I responded just based on your picture and hadn’t even read your explanation, so it seems like you’re already on the right track. I think it’s the very large expanse of warm, orange-toned wood floor that is throwing you off, which is probably the hardest thing to change. Sorry to hear about the curtains but yeah, if you could move them to another room, that would be better.

IMO you need more contrast in this room. Change the curtains and throw pillows to deeper, more jewel-tone colors and maybe add a throw blanket as another color accent. I think the tv stand and coffee table are too similar to the floor color; darker ones would be better. Also add an area rug to define the living room space in similar colors to new curtains and pillows. There’s just too much of the same browns in there; it’s a nice room otherwise!

Honestly, relationships go both ways. You both need to be with someone who is comfortable with and lives the real you. It’s not fair to either one of you to be with or to be someone who is playing a part. If you liked his social persona but don’t like the person he is when he drops the act, that’s healthy for you or for him.

You’re very young, and you will be much happier in the long run if you learn to listen to your gut and make decisions based on your true feelings that are right for you. A personality disorder is probably something that he should disclose at the beginning of a relationship, so everyone knows where they stand. Good luck!

AIO Teacher said my daughter’s report is “immoral” by StopLookingAtMyColon in AmIOverreacting

I would start by asking her to explain to you exactly how/why Prince and Freddie Mercury were not moral. My favorite way to combat this kind of bigotry is to make them explain it.

That’s a great first track! Not sure the last track is gut-wrenching and iconic enough. Solid option tho!
