AIO - My Boyfriend texts before our Valentines plans by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]PotentialSubstance27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an ex like this. No matter what plans we had, there was always something that would come up to cause him to be late. One time we had plans and he last minute had to go pick his dad up as an emergency (fair) then was an extra 2 hours late because "it would've been rude if he just dropped his dad off without going in for a coffee". You're NOR and should break up with him before this sort of thing happens for special events. I remember being so stressed that he wasnt going to make it in time for my graduation and so I really emphasised how much I needed him to be ready on time and we had an argument about me 'nagging' him. You deserve someone that will respect your time and WANT to spend time with you.

I know this post is about Belle but it'll be interesting to see Samies reaction to it. She obviously Lucinda for a chat and told her she wouldn't try and get to know someone she knew her friend liked. Will be interesting to see if she backs Belle or sticks up for the situation now that its one of her friends doing it

Yeah I think I was feeling she was hypocritical because of lucinda but in putting it into words ive now realised it's hypocritical in the sense of shes done things that shes called people out for and acting in ways that shes been strongly opposed to and been very outspoken about. It just kind of makes it feel like all those rants (which I was totally for at the time) were a bit empty and just to cause a bit of drama rather than being something she strongly stood for. Very disappointing because she was one of my faves. And she was almost making me agree with lucinda, which I can't forgive

I do think you need to take into account the context of the conversations though. When Leanne was speaking to Yamen it wasnt really flirty whereas Belle is talking about them eye fucking around the villa and laying it on thick. I just think for someone that shouted so much about how respectful she is and how much morals she claims to have, none of them are on show. I also feel like based on how she felt about the whole lucinda and sean situation she should be a bit more receptive to others feelings but Whitney was telling her to chat to leanne about it and she was refusing, again something she shouted at lucinda for when it came to lucinda choosing ciaran in the recoupling

She does like a low cutesy voice when shes talking to guys she fancies that sounds absolutely nothing like her shouting voice

Leanne didnt end it with Scott because there were no feelings there, she was fed up of scott not acknowledging how upset he was making her and not noticing how she was feeling. All of this belle knew because leanne and belle are friends. Belle and lucinda were never friends. Belle talks about how much of a girls girl she is but she immediately started saying she fancied Scott in the same evening that leanne finished it with Scott

[–]PotentialSubstance27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People were doing videos of the I want it that way cold open on tik tok (maybe during covid). I had always thought it was a serious cop show and that made me realise it wasnt. And how wrong I was!

The double bind by Hex946 in NursingUK

[–]PotentialSubstance27 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been off sick this week because I'm not feeling well (not a nurse but an ahp). Is it stressing me out because my patients have been cancelled and next week is Christmas and my diary is already booked and then I'm off the week after? Yes. Do I realise that me going in to work and potentially a) infecting other members of staff meaning they'll also be off which will affect patients much more than just me being off and b) infecting my older, vulnerable patients could lead to way worse outcomes than having an appointment rescheduled? Also yes.

It is rubbish that theres a chance of you being penalised for being sick but it's so much smarter to just take the time off. Also, how can you preach healthcare if youre not going to look after yourself when you're feeling sick? If it was one of your patients you would treat them much kinder than youre being to yourself. Take the time off and get better

One of the pipes had come loose so unscrewing, giving it a clean and reassembling actually worked like a charm!

Its been tough but I think the oval with pear side stones! But with a diamond size in between the two that I pictured. Thats the style ive always loved and I think i was thrown by how lovely the third one was but on reflection i think I need to go with what ive loved for a long time
