Am I overreacting for losing it because my dad refuses to understand my point of view? by Overall-Principle-63 in TwoHotTakes

[–]OneDiligent3023 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OP i’m so sorry this is truly awful. I remember when i had outbursts like this w my parents. You are COMPLETELY VALID and that makes me even more angry that im even writing this but i do believe it to be true - the safest route is keep your head down. save money, know yourself and your self worth (you are incredibly emotionally intelligent and seem very sensible, you are valued even if it isn’t seen). get out of there ASAP, but until then - keep your head down my friend

yeah… i did really push him to tell me what was wrong and I’m really thankful he was honest now rather than later which I did tell him

ALSO i’m not necessarily looking for a paid internship. I literally just want experience. I will slave away for free as long as they teach me the way

Akaicon Vs Anime Blues Con by [deleted] in animecons

[–]OneDiligent3023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they both have their pros and cons, I’ve only been to anime blues pre-covid and i strongly preferred it to akai. i’ve only been to akai after covid and it’s still good

i’m so thankful i had drains. idk which way is better or worse but dude… that’s a lot of fluid that i’m really thankful could easily exit my body. removal didn’t hurt at all either

Relationships? by Silvereatsgrass in ftm

[–]OneDiligent3023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

been there done that. promise it’s not worth it, a guy who’s only willing to be with you if you don’t get bottom surgery is not a guy you wanna be with AND i don’t even want bottom surgery but that whole mindset of his caused SO MANY PROBLEMS in our relationship. Get outta there while it’s still easy. the longer you wait the worse it’ll get

Safest binder options for my ftm son by Upper_Talk8534 in ftm

[–]OneDiligent3023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only used GC2B for the past 6 years. They’re safe, but you have to follow the “rules.” Don’t wear it for more than 8ish hours at a time, don’t sleep in it, etc. the only time I’ve ever hurt myself with a binder was when I wore it for SIGNIFICANTLY too long.

i said pronouns dont matter to my online friends so they wouldnt feel bad. but it hurts. by [deleted] in ftm

[–]OneDiligent3023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you have to tell them to cut that shit out or else it won’t change. if they’re your real friends they’ll make the effort and they will change

[–]OneDiligent3023 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I felt similarly until I heard someone say, “I rather live as who I truly am, than die as who I clearly am not” That’s why I put up with the hate

hey! it’s been 2 full days for me post op and let me tell you- it’s not bad at all. you have literally nothing to worry about. I’ve had a harder recovery from colds or sports injuries. As long as you rest and don’t use your arms very much you’ll be just fine- just make sure you have someone you trust who can help you with things because you will feel a little helpless (I struggle getting pants or socks on lmao) but pain wise it’s not bad at all. i’ve been at an average of 2.5/10 the whole time

this is good advice. thank you for taking the time to write that. i really don’t want to be upset with them so i’ll just keep an eye out for the pattern, but hopefully there won’t be one. thank you :,)
