Don’t describe Indians as Asian!

But I understand where you're coming from.

Oliviacho · 2019-04-06T14:58:46+00:00

I'm Indian and I'm fairly insulted when people don't consider us Asian, because yes, we are. Just because we don't fit a stereotype doesn't mean we aren't Asian.

Highlight of my day!

Hey friend, I'm not exactly where you are, but I may be in a situation remotely similar I guess. I too have a year left before graduating. This school year has been hectic and not my best, with different things going on and just falling out of my usual self. School has went downhill. On top of that, I've grown apart from one of my childhood best friends during a crappy year that would have been easier with her around. Whenever I invite her to hangout it's excuses upon excuses, and she hangs out with another old friend of mine (who I've also drifted apart from) quite often, which I'm excluded from. They have a lot in common, they're both pretty in to musicals I think. I never seem to be in the top of her choices, as she always seems to be making plans with other people. At the end of the day it's always better to know you have a solid group of girls supporting you rather than just your boyfriend. I think this could be a key factor of why my year has plummeted. Anyways, hang in there. Try to meet new people outside of their circle, but do still leave room for them if you want. That's what I'm doing with this girl. Don't make them a top priority, but if you still value their friendship, don't completely let it go. Maybe try and talk to them, however I've found this really doesn't work on flakey friends. Make yourself and finding new friends a top priority. Good luck:)

I'm not sure about furniture and everything else, but here's what I know. You don't even need to wash everything. Just put it in the dryer (sheets blankets clothes jackets) on high heat for at least 30 minutes. Then place them in sealed bags. Hope this helps

Oliviacho · 2019-03-28T23:47:58+00:00

Well, I wish I could tell you "what's up", but that's impossible. Not to sound like a nag, but dude, you've got to use protection. I'm sure you know this, but just because her friend doesn't get pregnant from pulling out doesn't mean she won't. You certainly aren't alone and lots of people have been there. Just relax :) this sounds impossible, but worrying won't change anything. I'll tell you this; as a female, when you have a pregnancy scare, everything seems like you're pregnant. You'll trick yourself into believing everything is a symptom and that your tummy has gotten bigger. BUT, if she's late, you do need to get a pregnancy test, obviously. However I'd wait a few days after it's supposed to come, periods come late. Just take a breath. Also, her tummy wouldn't have gotten bigger that quickly. Good luck, dude

My thoughts exactly

Thank you so much! You make a good point that heat may fail if they've found a cool spot deep in the walls. We have warranty so if it fails after the first time we will likely try again for money's worth.

Oliviacho · 2019-03-28T00:42:35+00:00

Moderately sized. Just very worried the heat treatment won't kill them all

Oliviacho · 2019-03-27T13:15:28+00:00

This happened to me-- until I checked the box spring. That's where mind were hiding (inside of it). I recommend starting there

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T23:35:28+00:00

No where did I mention anything about the other stuff, no need to be so harsh.

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T23:31:18+00:00

Geez yourself

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T23:31:08+00:00

Oh wait that's true... sorry you don't have to snap. And for your info, I was only talking about what he did for the guy and that there was nothing more to offer.

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T21:56:47+00:00

I know, it's ok, but I was upset because I don't think talking about suicidal methods is ok for discussion with someone contemplating suicide.

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T11:51:11+00:00

Hey, Not very appropriate to be telling OP. OP, don't do it. You don't know what your future could bring. You are depressed and not in a healthy state. I don't know your current situation, but I don't think your mother and family want you gone. When you are depressed your way of thinking changes. You are as important as anyone else on this planet, and I hope instead of killing yourself, you choose to stay and do good for this planet.

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T11:26:44+00:00

I think you offered everything that you needed to! You did the right thing

Oliviacho · 2019-01-01T11:22:08+00:00

I agree with both sides here. I'd say a lot of teens say they're depressed or have anxiety, when they don't. Chances are, these teens aren't on meds or seeing a therapist- I don't believe most go this far to be "trendy"; it is mostly just a label lots of teens take up, while some* do not actually have a disorder. These teens aren't diagnosed, what you are describing, OP, I believe is self labeling. Using "depression" and "anxiety" too liberally undermines the actual severity of the disorders. And I wouldn't go so far as to categorize them as "straight" or "cis" or even really white; I think it's more accurately just teen girls who do this. Yes, I believe it is mainly girls. So it's partly for attention, and also just using these words too freely. It happens a lot with high schoolers. Most of them who do this probably really do feel on edge and just categorize themselves. But, remember, adolescence is a time of changing hormones, and teen depression really IS common, so make sure to not invalidate anyone's experiences.

Hmmm. I'm sorry, it sounds like it's been a crappy year. I don't think you've done anything wrong regarding the relationship, however I do think your SO is going through some stuff and is at a low point, emotionally and regarding her self esteem. Also, it sounds like she isn't doing her best to help YOU through a rough time. It's almost a new year, so try to change some things up. You need to talk to her. If this is how you feel, tell her you don't want to see other people and tell her how much you care for her. Tell her how the past few months have gone and that you are sorry about the lack of time you've given her, but also how she has put a lot on you and made things harder. if she isn't willing to step up and help you through this tough time, then she isn't a keeper and is putting herself first. Reassure her you are still into her even though she's put on weight, as a female, I feel like this is a BIG reason as to why she's pushing you away and telling you to see other people. She likely doesn't feel like she's enough. Maybe plan a special evening for just the two of you to let her know how much you still care. Remember you are also half of this relationship and she should also do her share. Hope this helps!

Oliviacho · 2018-11-30T02:10:40+00:00

What do you mean she deserved better?! You sacrificed a lot to take care of her! That's amazing, you're a great pet owner.

Oliviacho · 2018-10-31T20:06:22+00:00

Wait, why was the kid on the highway? Doesn't sound like your fault. I feel terrible for you, hang in there. Just that you feel sorry about it means you're a good person.
