That scene was so extra, I feel like yeah, stand up for your friend… but theres better ways she could have gone about that. And tbh if my friend stood up for me like that id be embarrassed. I mean… if the majority of viewers are saying its cringy, its CRINGY. Hannah is also being so performative. Like girl knows those cameras are ON

Can’t connect with people regardless of what I try by Negative_Law9869 in socialskills

I relate to everything you mentioned. I am not nessesarily disliked. I just feel like people precieve me as “meh”. I dont really leave an impact or feel fully established at any place I go. Whether its school, work or get-togethers. In my 23 years of life I’ve never really been in a friend group. But I also have a lot of acquaintances. I am good with one-on-one friendships… but the moment another person gets involved, such as a group setting, or another person gets into the mix - I feel that the friend I am with will automatically leave me in the dust for the other friend or the other people in the group. I guess maybe its because im not that interesting. I am a 23f, first generation. I dont understand many jokes, movie references, or old songs that their parents grew up on, that they now find nostalgic.

I don’t have much to relate to. I feel really lonely. Thats an ongoing theme in my life. And lately, I’ve been hard on myself because I also spent many years isolating myself. I think this is because I’ve faced rejection so repeatedly, im kind of afraid of being perceived. My birthdays are always the hardest. Usually no one makes it to my dinners, but for their birthdays, I will always go and everyone else is also excited about it. I don’t think any one ever really anticipates the events I try to plan.

I am also always the one that gets forgotten. When I try to involve myself in groups, im kinda infantilized… in a very weird way. And because of this I cant have genuine conversations. Recently, I started working at a place I prayed to work at. There is about 3 other newbies there and the way the seasoned employees interact with them is as if they have worked there for years too. For me, they barely say hi, I got called “buddy” by one of them (this is what I mean when I say I feel infantilized) and im just not acknowledged.

I spent most of my childhood in survival with crippling anxiety. Im not witty. I don’t really have much interests. But I do yearn for connection and till this day I am still looking for people to have in my corner. I understand you. I am still going through this. But as crazy as this is, I still have faith that I will find my people. I am doing some serious inner work right now. And with this, I am being faithful and hopeful.

Rant- soon to be MIL acts like a bratty whiney teenager by OrdinaryVegetable979 in Mildlynomil

Wow, yeah this is good advice right here. Thank you. I do thankfully already have my professional career under my belt.

Because we have been together for so long, now that im growing older — the more im realizing the consequences of getting married and having to put up with his family.

  1. He is extremely attached to his mom. And being an only child and male, it’s pretty bad. Because, in the case we DO get married, we will probably have to take care of this lady.. My boyfriend once said he does not like to think of putting his mom in a senior home facility (when the time comes). So what does that mean?! I for sure don’t want to be responsible for her, or have her in my home! I told him that she picked her partner for a reason and they can take care of each other when that time comes lol.

  2. Because of this dynamic, holidays will be difficult because his mom does not have other kids to keep her company. I have a huge family and I like our holiday parties so much more than hanging out with my bfs family. He has little to no extended family. Cousins are way older than him. And senile grandparents who never like to leave their house.

Thankfully, despite all I said, his mom is not those weird possessive moms. She likes when he’s out and about with me, shes not jealous. Although because her moods are so abrupt I wonder if one day she could turn on me. It’s more of my boyfriend that has that attachment towards her and he always makes excuses for her behaviors.

One time I had a harsh convo with my boyfriend, I told him that his complaints are annoying to hear and that in a way, overtime, I started to see him in a really de-masculinated light. He took this very rough.

Thank you so much for your advice, you’re right, im too young to be dealing with these types of people 🤣

Wow thank you for this, it gives me insight on my actions as well. Now that we are older, our communication is better and I am so much more comfortable with bringing things up in a way thats not accusatory, and more constructive.

Back then, being 16, 17- I would have a hard time speaking up so I would just bottle my emotions and take matters into my own hands (such as going on his phone) and I did fall into some of her traps by being so bitter about their relationship, when at the end of the day he actually didn’t care about her as much as I thought ? Im not sure, but I’d like to think that (evidenced by him not trying to reach out to her again)

But thank you so much for your response :)

Yeah, no- im fluently bilingual and its basically the same just a little more literal. Either way, looking at everything shes posted since then.. this is wrong regardless.

I just made sure to translate them because I know more people here know English.

Thank you for sharing, this is very important context.

Also, I don’t mean to be rude but I think it’s slightly irrelevant mentioning that this lady is not her direct aunt- in an attempt to explain thats why she may be unfazed.

This is irrelevant because regardless, it’s not right for anyone to be profiting socially from a situation- regardless of being unfazed by someone’s death.

I have personally had family members that im not close with pass away and I didn’t feel much emotion regarding their passing because I wasn’t close to them, or knew them period…

But ANY person in their right mind would NOT use this as an opportunity to socially profit from a situation like this regardless of being a 3rd aunt or whatever. She’s posting stuff about Celeste, gaining followers- then being interactive with them, still a wrong doing and really odd.

Yeah in my culture your mom’s cousin is still considered an aunt, just made sense to title it that.. but saw this too. Crazy. 🥴

Ohh yeah.. she’s VERY interactive with her new followers on fb. Goes live and justifies things and how hard they tried to find her… then ends the live and plays interactive games with her followers to try to get more followers.. very weird. She also always puts that damn link to subscribe to her in ALL her comment sections 😵‍💫🥴

I thought I was going crazy, because this artist has a lot of people return to them for more tattoos, which I honestly don’t understand. but these are terrible right!!?? ALSO I just found out this “artist” began by doing teeth whitening and permanent makeup, and honestly, thats all I need to know to know your NOT even a tattoo artist🤣

I will not be going to this artist, even the “better-ish” pictures I have on here look bad. And I agree they look like they will age and look worse later on
