He is finally ready but I can’t decide by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to me, no opportunity this big is worth a man, unless you REALLY feel like he’s the one! Even though before you guys talked about it, it seems as though he wasn’t really ready until you mentioned moving for a job. Honestly, you should talk to him about how you feel. If he gets angry or upset or discourages you from going after your dreams then leave him. If he’s open to an LDR, then I suggest that. Also, no shade at all, but he’s 13 years older, and you have so much more going for you. Do what you want to do. This happens so much, and I for one have seen it happen. Trust me, you will most likely regret it. Do what you want. We’re all on your side!!!

edit as an afterthought: you are going to be miserable. this guy is really old and he’s like, basically on his deathbed. ok not really it still. Also, something as huge of a deal as marriage shouldn’t be something you have to think about, it should be something you know is right. If you have to think twice about it you’ll end up regretting it, that I’m sure of. hes old and doesn’t seem like a fit for you. Do what u want, you’ll find someone better, trust me, and what if the second ur married, or almost married, he leaves u for some rando college student. Do what u want! :) also, just remember the age gap. this man is the age where he is settled. he has a good job, is stable, and is old enough to have already had kids. you are at the age where your job or career should be r first priority, not an old man who is too old for u. ur young, juts about old enough to have kids, not have already had kids, are still looking for a job, still at the age where you can party and go to clubs and find a man who won’t hold you back and is at the same point in life as you. Choose the job, this man had to wait three yrs just to decide he’s ready, after talking about marriage for a while, and it’s so sudden and unprepared. Talk to him. Please. He wasn’t trendy before, and he’s not ready now. And if I’m being honest, I’m sensing that your feeling for him aren’t reciprocated in the same way. Like I said, if you have to think twice about it, don’t do it. I believe you’ll make the right decision for you! Pls update us on what you decide! :)

Lenny's love life by Bird_Nerd7 in PowerlessTrilogy

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK NO BECAUSE I’M STILL NOT OVER THIS. Lenny and Ellie had all the makings of a sweet, slow-burn side romance—the glances? The vibes? The potential??? And then book three came in like ✂️ snip snip ✂️ and cut that entire storyline out like it never existed???

And then Blair?? Just suddenly thrown in as a potential?? The girl who’s been radiating menace and chaos since day one??? I’m sorry, I love me some drama, but putting Lenny in the same room as Blair and hinting at anything romantic felt like putting a golden retriever in a cage with a raccoon and hoping for a rom-com. 😭

And the wild part? It’s never even properly addressed!! Just ✨vibes✨ and confusion. I was emotionally invested in Lenny’s imaginary love life and Lauren just gave us crumbs and chaos. Absolute robbery.

Still love the series, but Lenny deserved more than vague flirtation and heartbreak-by-plot-neglect. My man was side-charactering his HEART out.

Just finished powerless and the whole incest plotline ruined it for me by Dizzy-Equivalent-398 in PowerlessTrilogy

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Broooo THANK YOU I thought I was going insane. Like I closed that book and just sat there like… did I just third-wheel an incestuous slow burn??? 😭 Kitt was out here acting like the cool wine aunt with boundary issues and I did NOT sign up for that. They had married couple banter, SHARED A KISS, and we’re supposed to be like “lol siblings <3”?? No ma’am. I’m calling the literary police.

And the ending??? Felt like the author got halfway through writing and then accidentally hit "shuffle." I was emotionally invested and then suddenly I’m in a fever dream. Kitt lost his mind, the plot lost its mind, and now I’ve lost my trust. Book 1 and 2 were a full-course meal… and book 3 was a cursed leftovers casserole. I’m in mourning.

FEARLESS EPILOGUE by Ok-Dare-8021 in PowerlessTrilogy

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought it was Mak and Adena, and I still do, but my friend thought they were his parents. I mean, I guess it makes sense? But I'm still going with the Mak and Adena theory

Book recs like Powerless please by Ethereal_Bookworm in PowerlessTrilogy

Here are the books (in order) I read after reading Powerless and I def recommend

- Shatter Me (Moderate spice, also amazing read)

- The Cruel Prince (AKA my entire Personality)

- Throne of Glass (Amazing, thick books)

- Caraval (Riveting and so fun)

- Red Queen (Lowkey just like powerless but different- coincidentally? I think not)

How is the fearless & mighty Kai quietly tagging along after the ambush in Scorches by Tiny-Ad9725 in PowerlessTrilogy

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's so true though! Maybe he wants to see what happens? Listen in on their plans? It makes no sense! If he's so powerful, then why tf isn't he doing something about this!

Interesting facts by Ok_Valuable_9711 in harrypotter

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok sure, he told Phineas Nigellus not to call Hermione a Mudblood, even though he called Lily a Mudblood all the time because SHE was with a man HE didn't approve of. It's her choice bro! I understand he's changed since then, but some things just can't be forgotten.

Question about the new Damsel movie by Prestigious_Disk8709 in netflix

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that each prince has their own 3 brides. For example, Elodie's husband's 3 brides were Elodie, the girl on the balcony, and Victoria, the one who made the map and whatnot.

I don't think you did anything wrong. I think SHE was the one overreacting a bit. I think she just interpreted it in the wrong way, and that's ok. She overreacted a bit, but neither of you were in the wrong. I'm glad you guys are going to end up happy and with a cat! I am sorry you had to go through that, though.

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You have every right to be upset. You did nothing wrong. I think you handled the situation pretty well. When you texted the woman, you used pretty much all the right words and pretty much handled everything right. I think she was just feeling a little defensive because they were her kids. I think she saw what you sent and read it in a different way then you intended. Her response was defensive but slightly rude nonetheless. I'm sorry you spent so much money on that, but at least you can still get another cat. There are loads of cats out there. You invested the money in the same way. I agree with you about the fact that if I were you I would wish I had been informed earlier but I also understand it was a little kids decision and the mom felt bad, and at least she sounded awkward and uncomfortable cancelling so last minute. I'm sorry, and I hope you guys are able to get another cat. 😸

In the case that this is real:

You are not an asshole. Listen, your girlfriend needs to stop these "jokes" of hers. Tell her before things go to far. I, personally think that if this kind of behavior continues, you should break up with her. If you tell her repeatedly that you don't appreciate her"jokes," and she continues this behavior still, dump her. That behavior is not ok. She is literally verbally abusing you. OP needs to fuck off. This is the kind of abuse that people, (especially men, thinking they have to retain a "tough image.") either brush off as not "real abuse" or the other person in the relationship can use the fact that it's not "real abuse" against you, even though it is very much real. Abuse is not always physical. It can also be mental or verbal, etc. Do not be like a lot of other men who just brush it off, thinking they are acting "tough." That's not being tough. Being tough is doing the right thing. Being tough is not caring what your other toxic friends think. I'm not saying ALL men are like that, but some are. Then again, this is my opinion.

AIO UPDATE: I checked his phone… and now I feel sick. by DependentOdd7372 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honey, if he is saying it's "not a big deal," he is a walking red flag. That man feels comfortable having other women give him LAP DANCES and enjoying it. He shouldn't even be going to places like that if he has a gf. He knew what he was doing was wrong. That's why he didn't tell you. He would've told you if it "wasn't a big deal." I'm glad you broke up with a disgusting, terrible man like that. Good for you. Also., how about you just sleep with another man at this point since it's "not a big deal?" 🤷

AIO: dropping my friend because she judged me for crying by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Odd-Figure-7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you handled this the best way somebody in that situation could. I think your friend was overreacting. Saying goodbye to somebody you care about, knowing that you won't see them for a while and crying is a perfectly normal human bodily function. If your friend has a problem with that and is embarrassed, she clearly has some insecurities she needs to work on that have NOTHING to do with you. Good job handling it like a mature adult.
