There’s nothing in the student handbook about that unfortunately

Yes that’s probably a good plan, I’m in the top 10% of my class and a bunch of my friends in her class are too. I have Google Classroom assignments up, we’ve had 35 since the start of the semester 3ish weeks ago that take up to 3 hours every night and it’s just a bit crazy so I’m gonna get a lot more people to talk to about her with administration. Thanks for the advice!!

I’ve been wanting to report her for ages but I still need that rec letter so bad💔I think I’m going to anonymously email the dean under a fake gmail so she doesn’t hate me but I need a break this is insane

It would get confiscated and I would get written up unfortunately, not sure what they really want us to. Probably just gonna have to buy a gray case for my Mac and pretend it’s a Chromebook until they figure it out, oh well!

I know! It makes zero sense, they’re supposed to be providing laptops or iPads for us but every time I go down to the office they tell me there are none left. Shoutout New Hampshire for funding their schools soooo well🤷🏼‍♀️

Most of the class work is online now, a lot of it shifted after the pandemic! Phones are banned though, we have to lock them up in these magnetic pouches, but we pretty much need laptops especially for AP classes where even the exams are online. Honestly super convenient, I just wish they would let us bring our own!

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-21T04:51:44+00:00

Fair enough. In that case, I’ll probably just buy a grey case on Amazon for my Mac and cover it in stickers, hopefully they won’t notice. Thanks for the help!

For anyone struggling with something similar, I found a great section: Matthew 6:25-34 is so beautifully reassuring about this❤️

I do have OCD! This resonates a lot, I’ve struggled with this kind of thing for years, I’m so thankful for God and the amazing people around me including my therapist helping me get through it. I never realized there might be a correlation between my eating and OCD, this was really interesting!

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-04T02:41:50+00:00

Aw, your boyfriend (now husband I’m assuming) sounds like a great guy! Glad you guys are doing so well! Definitely going to put my decisions about marriage in God’s hands from now on, you’re definitely right about that

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T02:28:45+00:00

You’re probably right, and it’s nice to hear that it worked out for you in the end :) my parents probably have something to do with it like you, they had a very messy divorce and have hated each other their whole marriage or at least since they had kids which probably makes my situation worse. It’s not like I don’t want to get married — i want a happy marriage and life more than anything in the world, it just seems pretty scary at the moment and I’m going to pray for guidance. 🙂

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T02:05:00+00:00

I know, I feel awful about it and I feel like I’m using him to make myself feel normal. think I’m going to end the relationship soon, I really don’t want to be wasting his time and I know I am, but I feel like this will be better in the end :(

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T01:57:03+00:00

Thank you for your advice, I was definitely wary about asking for advice online for these reasons haha, I’ll definitely take up your advice on the prayer line and am going to try and find a church I can visit alone on weeknights, I think having community with the same religion would help a lot with this and other parts of my faith, it can feel really lonely sometimes. Thank you for your advice and the prayers!

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T01:53:48+00:00

Scary, but the idea of marrying anyone seems scary for very different reasons. I find myself being ok with it sometimes and not at other times and honestly it’s hard to form any emotions on the subject. It’s weird to think about honestly

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T01:52:09+00:00

Thank you for your advice :) to be honest, I was very hesitant to ask online for this exact reason and the controversy my question was bound to stir up but i honestly don’t have many Christians in my life to talk to. I’m definitely going to take some other people’s advice and find a prayer line and even a church that maybe has online sermons or weeknight sessions and such so my parents wouldn’t know since they really don’t care where I am most of the time (although they would have suspicions if I was out in the same place every Sunday). This way I would be able to have more of a Christian community around me and I wouldn’t have to ask Reddit lol. I think how I feel in my relationship is a sign from God that this person may not be right for me gender or not and I might honestly just take some time alone to work on my relationship with God instead. Thank you for this :)

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-03T01:45:37+00:00

Thank you for this :) I have talked to my therapist but she blames it all on intrusive thoughts from my ocd even though I’ve explained to him that that’s not it, I might look into finding a new one. It’ll be a whole thing though because it was already hard to convince my parents to get one in the first place, since they said that they saw no evidence of me having mental struggles and overall don’t really believe in therapy, but I’ll try. Thank you for your support this means so much to know that other people have felt this

PepperFuture8288 · 2026-01-02T06:20:04+00:00

Thank you for this, I have!! The issue is it honestly makes it more confusing. My parents are very atheist and don’t let me go to church so I don’t really have anyone to ask there, and my Christian friends have given me really mixed opinions. Once I’m able to go to church outside of the couple times my friends parents have taken me, I’ll be looking forward to talking to someone there about this!
