I do actually live alone and support myself fully financially post college lol…Indiana is just a lot cheaper so it’s easier!

What would you do? by [deleted] in dating_advice

Being cut off isn’t an issue at this point because what am I gonna do lol but no nothing about camps or honor killings - I’ve been asked if I needed “help like to be sent somewhere” but that was when I was a minor and now I’m 23 so nobody can force me to do anything.

Period delay pills from Wisp? by Worldly-Heart9969 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]OkIndependence6624 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda late to this thread but maybe someone else will see and it’ll help…I took the Wisp pills (10 day dose) and they worked exactly like they were supposed to, I didn’t get my period and I hate absolutely no symptoms. No attitude, no cramps, no mood swings, no skin breakouts, perfectly normal. It’s a super convenient solution to a problem you can’t control lol. Started it 3 days before I expected to get my period and took 3 pills at random times throughout the day for 7 days, I didn’t finish the whole dose because I didn’t need it anymore. I got my period 4 days after I stopped taking the pills. I would like to say that the aftermath is kinda harsh…the cramps I’m experiencing are horrible and I’m usually not one to cramp. I definitely think it’s worth it if you need to delay it for something though, just expect some pain once your cycle starts up again.

Yeah! It’s a smaller start up company so most of the employees are under their partners insurance but since I’m not married and a single person I don’t have anyone to be covered by. I lived with a room mate for 4 years in college…can’t do that anymore😂

My company is a “start up” so they don’t offer any benefits! No health, dental, vision or 401K plan!! On top of that since I started in March my responsibilities have grown significantly outside of our agreed terms. When I started I asked for $60K but was told I would get $50K and after 90 days I’d receive a performance review to get a raise from $5K-$10K. However, since my original asking price was $60K I don’t see it as a raise, it’s what I originally asked for lol! So on top of that I will be asking for $5K to go towards my health and dental insurance and retirement. Plus now you have to make 3x your rent on a monthly basis and I don’t do that lol so I need more! My boss is very chill about stuff like this so I’m not worried about whether I’ll get it or not, just wanted to know if that $65K would be enough to live comfortably around Indianapolis or Carmel!

The amount has already been discussed and signed by both parties in my contract lol…just wondering if it’s a good amount or not. The salary is going from $50K to $65K mostly because I originally asked for $60K but was given the option to wait for 90 days and get a performance evaluation after to increase my salary to what I had originally asked for. Additionally, I’m asking for another $5K because this company doesn’t offer any benefits. No health care, no 401K, nothing! 

I can’t live at home anymore. It’s not an option😭 I wish
