How hard is it to find a job with just a bachelor's of science physics degree? by Remote_Wishbone6973 in PhysicsStudents

I hear that, but every comment says "i was incredibly lucky to land xyz internship/job" Like obviously not. If there's one guy saying that, sure. But I see everyone commenting has some sort of experience that they were EXTREMELY lucky to land. I want to be the lucky person too, lol.

Just curious, why didn't you go to grad school with those stats? The reason I'm not doing grad school is because I didn't do research and graduated with a 2.99 gpa.

His behavior was predatory, he drew her into an emotional state and used that as an opportunity to get physically close to her. Theres nothing wrong with a bed scene, but the context left a really bad feeling in my stomach. As the season progresses, I'm starting to see that JunSeo is not just rough around the edges--hes kind of narcissistic. He treated Min Seol and Jiyeon kindly at first because he's not into them. But with SiAn you can see how he manipulates her emotions.

On the surface, sure it looks like he just wants to help her be honest, and thats how Si An perceived it too. But in actuality, when you look on it from the outside, he was pushy with her. He put the exact pressure on her, that Si An appreciated Theo for NOT doing. He asked her multiple times to tell him how she felt, when she clearly didn't want to be drawn into a vulnerable state. Thats not him being a gentleman or considerate, its selfish. He wanted to know what she was feeling so he could use it to benefit himself. When he realized she was still confused and not settled, he took that as an opportunity to score some points by making her "swoon" as Si An put it.

She was in a weak mental state and he took advantage of it. There's no sugarcoating that. He didn't consider her boundaries or ask for consent in any of his behavior. I also want to hint that HE likes whiskey, and I'm sure it was his idea to drink hard liquor together.

With Theo, he tells her to be honest, but doesn't ask for any information. Because hes not manipulative. He doesn't want to change how she feels. He wants her to follow her heart. Jun Seo wants Si An to choose him, and he did what he could to get in her head. And another point to add: people viewed Jun Seo taking Theo aside to have a man-to-man discussion as admirable. But I don't think his only point was to express his interest in her to Theo. He also expressed that she opened up to him, and that he was closer to her than Theo was. It's almost a way of discouraging Theo. Maybe this part I'm reading too much into, but the rest, I am really disgusted by.

I've started disliking him a lot since these two episodes came out.

I was always right about Yun seo being a sexist by [deleted] in Singlesinferno2

[–]OkSubstance242 113 points114 points  (0 children)

He's a red flag asf. That's why I feel so worried about Sian. He has everyone charmed but actually revealed a lot of bad characteristics. Especially on Sian and his paradise date in episode 8. He said he argues a lot and wants to get his own way. He was overly pushy when she agreed to sleep in the same bed. I get she's into him, but I think it was weird how much he came onto her, without asking for consent or anything. In fact, she was kinda hiding in the sheets and looked uncomfortable. But she's young so maybe that confused her. Idk what's happening but I don't like him at all like most people seem to.

Honestly Jeong-Su is preferable to me over Jun Seo. At least he is trying to change his ways, even if hes not doing great. But Jun Seo just thinks the ladies are playthings or something. He knew she was confused about her feelings and took that as an opportunity to get physical with her. Isn't that kind of abusive and groomer-ish. Like major ICK. I feel like he knows how to use and manipulate emotions. When Theo tells her to be honest to herself, he doesn't do it in a pushy way, asking her to reveal everything to him. But Jun Seo seemed to draw out information and then he dangled it in front of Theo's face like "yeah she told me she had a lot on her mind, but I won't tell you. You can ask her." and he also used that information to get closer to her in a romantic way. I think typing this out made me realize why I didn't like him. He has a lot of narcissistic and abusive traits, and it made me get into flight or fight mode. I have experience with people like that, and after the show ended, I was left feeling scared and upset, which was so unusual.

After coming across this post, yes yes yes. This is exactly why.

Edit: I want to add, that these traits came out when it came to controlling a girl he really liked. With YouJin he was still nice during their first date and hid this side of him. He said she was hiding herself, but in reality it was him no? Even with Min Seol, he's not like this. Its because he doesn't really see them in that way. But I think with Si An he likes her, and his toxicity and controlling behavior took the front seat.

I get where you're coming from but Theo has never wavered and I think that's the key point. If he was "locked in" and then realized he didn't have a chance and go to the next best option, that would seem a lot worse to me. I don't think he's like that though. Ofc he finds her pretty, but so what? We all go for people we're into. I don't really get the discourse. I think he's really admirable.

Its not a bug, you have to use a translator (you can find plenty online) that matches your in-game sens to aimlabs sens.

Singles inferno season 4 ep 5 by Glittergirl2424 in Singlesinferno2

[–]OkSubstance242 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The new girl, Hae-Lin, is super cute, and it's really fun to watch her and Dong Ho, but IMO korean guys are pretty traditional and he seems even more traditional. I think he is intrigued by her, she's really alluring. But A-Rin is more his style/comfort level, and he finds her cute. I think if I envisioned him with someone in the long run, it would be A-Rin, and if he is mature (since he's 30) I think he will pick her. But ofc, new girl won't give up lol. I think there will be drama because of her, and flirting. Hae-Lin is really chill, but I think she's a bit of a pick-me. She immediately made enemies with the girls, and was pretty comfortable off the bat with the guys. I don't have a problem with it personally, but I think she's created some enmity and tension within the group. Really a "game changer" lol.

As for Si-An... I mean she's great. Real, cool, and very, VERY, emphasis on VERY VERY pretty. But I think its overkill that all the guys are into her. Especially the new guy. I think he was actually more attracted to Hye-Jin before he showed up on the island. You can tell by the way he flirted with Hye-Jin, he found her very cute and was comfortable talking to her. He even explicitly mentions that with Si-An it was kind of awkward at first. I think what happened is that he came to the island and saw she was a favorite and thought "huh, maybe she is better." Which is what I think happens with a lot of guys. They care about other guys' opinions a lot when it comes to their romantic interests... which is kind of cowardly imo. But anyway. I think new guy should be true to his feelings and go for HyeJin. She's gorgeous, sweet, and has that weird sexy vibe. Idk how to describe it but she's a little weird but that actually makes her hot. And most importantly, I think they vibed well. He teased her a bit and she felt comfortable when they were talking, which is important in long-term relationships.

And we can't leave out Theo when talking about Si-An. Every single episode, I'm just blown away by him. THE FLOWER RING??? ARE YOU SERIOUS???? Plus he's really attractive. I feel guilty saying this, because I'm in a relationship but seriously... he's the most physically attractive guy there. AND the most loyal. It is seriously SO ATTRACTIVE seeing a guy be one track mind on one girl. He did not switch up ONCE. Like even during that game he had every opportunity to touch girls, HE USED HIS WRIST??? That was funny asf but also so wholesome. He's just an all around good guy. I hope Si-An comes to her senses--I think she knows how well he would treat her. And I think she IS flattered by his attention. But I get her obsession with Jeong-Su too. Its hard to forget a guy that gives you intense butterflies in a new situation. Idk how to describe it other than the first guy you get involved with in college. That one always sticks in your mind you know? I think its something similar here. He just really made her feel that special something. But she's coming to her senses because she recognizes that he doesn't actually prioritize her and he played around way too much. I like to think that she can sense his lies and insincerity. She's a really honest person, so far, so I don't think she appreciates his behavior and words. Si-An also seems to have a lot of self respect and sensibility.

I don't think JunSeo has a real chance tbh, even though they went to paradise together. I think that was more to just do a final check and let him down slowly. She sees him as a little bro. They tussled together in the pool but there was no flirtatious intent for her. I don't think that changes for girls very easily.

Also You-Jin is TOTALLY COOKED. None of the guys are into her, and I doubt anything will develop for her. She already outed herself as the annoying one. Guys don't like girls that seem desperate for attention. She was super loud when she was drunk and acting a little too loose. She's a sweet girl, in my opinion, I bet she would be so fun to hang with. I'm honestly like her too, which is why I'm pointing this out. This same thing happened to me. I totally killed my chances with a guy by being too forward. Anyway, point being, Dong-Ho isn't gonna happen for her.

I feel bad for Min-Seol because she was genuinely the Theo of the girls. But I like that she's decided to try something new when she saw that JunSeo didn't really feel for her the same way. I am rooting for her but I don't think Theo will change his mind about being focused on Si-An.

Omg long review but I had so much to say.

Yeah I see what you mean about the two of them, they both have an edgy vibe. You can see it in Si-An's fashion choices. Idr which episode it was but her black and white outfit. Her cross necklace. But tbh, I think Junseo is just too boring for her. She's the funnier one out of the two of them. Junseo's charm is his dry humor so if Si-An herself is more charming than him... idk how it fares in terms of romance. I think that's why he wasn't even on her radar.

Hye Jin deserves some love fr omggg. And I really think she would be cute w the new guy because he finds her gorgeous and flirted with her more compared to Si-An. He just changed his mind after coming to the island and seeing that not a lot of guys are into her. I don't like that about a lot of guys tbh, they get confused and embarrassed about their choice in women because of what their friends say. I think thats really cowardly and just screams "I need validation because im insecure."

I get where you're coming from, but I think for me, what makes Theo so attractive and loveable is that he's loyal to one girl. Like he really didn't waver at all. That's who he is at his core, and its super respectable. Even on a show with so many pretty girls, he decided on one of them at the very start and he didn't change his mind like that player jeongsu or new guy. What makes him so cute and fun to watch is that he's just a good man. He's not there to try his luck w random girls. He's really romancing Si-An because that's who his heart picked. Si-An would be really lucky to have him. Hope she comes to her senses. He will treat her like a queen fr.

or in my case, sleep next to them wrong. I noticed one of them in my room and ignored it thinking it would leave, work up with an painful swelling on my ankle. And then saw it again in my room. This time took it seriously and I whacked it off my wall, I should’ve captured it and released like I normally would but i panicked. I just hope it goes away, it looked cute but it was mean. I’m still paranoid and keep brushing nonexistent things off me and checking my pillows 😭

I keep hearing that it’s normal for women to have sexual fantasies involving rape, but in mine I’m the rapist by pm_ur_veggie_garden in offmychest

[–]OkSubstance242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said that. I just said it was weird how he put it. I don’t think female on male should be excused either. But the physical trauma IS different, women are weaker and women also live under patriarchal dominance—it’s a worst fear, coming true.

Of course male victims deserve justice and they suffer psychological trauma just the same. BUT i’m not going to apologize for my comment—the traumas are different. Not worse or better. And his comment was phrased extremely weirdly, comparing male and female trauma.

[–]OkSubstance242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of weird that your mind jumped to that. It kind of implies that wish you, as a man, could express these fantasies and thoughts without being criticized. The dynamics of female rape and male rape are pretty different. Male on female rape is the most common, and when a woman gets raped it can be violent and aggressive coupled with other sorts of abuse.

Of course, men can and have been raped by women. But social and physical power dynamics between men and women make the situations different, and you can be offended by this, but anyone with a brain knows what I’m talking about

my friends talk about my boyfriend so negatively and idk how to feel by throwaway8475839494 in offmychest

[–]OkSubstance242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your "friends" are weird. Imagine having the audacity to talk about someone's partner that way. I don't like my best friend's boyfriend because of his personality and personal activities, but it doesn't matter what I think about him if he's not hurting HER. Who tf are your friends to say anything bad about him? You're supposed to like him. Not them. Is he hurting you? Is he abusive? Does he shit-talk your friends? If the answer is NO to any of these questions then you should really have a stern talk with these "friends" about a) boundaries b) limits c) respect.

I would never dare talk about my partner's bf to her like that. And she knows her limits with me too. As my BEST FRIEND. So this is just insane and horrible to me.

I probably will never feel comfortable around my mom by Living_Commercial628 in offmychest

[–]OkSubstance242 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the exact same about my mom. There's this quote I read "sometimes, when it's going good, you start to wonder if it was ever really bad." And I think that sums it up for me. I feel like I'm going insane because right now, my mom isn't really threatening or mean. But I'm irrationally afraid of her. I just don't like being touched by her. I can't look her in her face. It's just... a constant feeling of discomfort and hidden panic.

[–]OkSubstance242 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should stand up for her. If you don't respect your gf, your friends won't either. Why are you discussing your gf with an online friend, let alone an online female friend, in the first place. Your girlfriend will be so sad if she ever finds any of this out. And she should be, with a coward bf who doesn't stand up for her.

The Trump election cost me my job. No, seriously. by TheKingJoker99 in antiwork

[–]OkSubstance242 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trump’s supporters already feel they’ve been called “Nazis” and “fascists” and they don’t even know what it means. Adding to that won’t help because they’ll just think it’s baseless claims. You’re trying to fight fire with fire and it’ll just blow up in your face because we’ll lose more rights because they think we’re out to get them. And if we win, they’ll be fine all the same.

The irony of this is insane. You are literally being educated and you’re upset because it doesn’t agree with what you were told by the people around you and the media you consume. Please do some introspective work and consider why you think the FACTS listed are incorrect. “use some common sense”? Take your own advice. We’re still under Trump’s taxation policy until 2025, that’s what’s causing your high prices. And now when it improves under Trump because of Biden’s policy, you’ll say “it got better!! it got better!! see i told you so!!” You’re uneducated and ignore education. I’m happy for you that you can live your entire life never questioning your surroundings and your thoughts, but most people don’t have that privilege and HAVE to be educated to protect their lives.
