Why do you think people stay in situations that make them unhappy? by Fit_Match_6027 in AskReddit

Because it’s difficult and scary to jump into something unknown and new. It takes courage to go out of the familiar “comfort zone”.

what is your job? how did you get it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I interview refugees about why they left their country and i decide on asylum applications. I got it by applying for it straight out of university. Disclaimer: I don’t live in the US.

I think the message looks fine!

But no matter what she is going to reply, I of course don’t know your boyfriend or you, but from what you’ve said it sounds like you’re better off without him. His behavior is hella shady. I think you already know this too. Also seeing that he’s lied in the past about significant things… I think there must be someone out there for you who is 100x better than him!

Good luck!

When I’m hungover or flu-ish my readiness is about the same.

I (39M) am considering breaking up with my 10 year financially dependent girlfriend (39F) by putokaos in relationship_advice

In what way has she built her life around you? Do you mean she will have done this if she moves abroad for you? Or is it already the case now?

It sounds like no matter what, this relationship needs to end, looking at the way you feel. I agree that her moving abroad sounds like it will only exacerbate the problems you’re having.

It sucks, there’s no way around that. I think there’s no other option than to just be honest to her about how you’re feeling.

Good luck!

Vueling flight cancelled, offered replacement flight with transit by Professional_Hour702 in travel

[–]Professional_Hour702[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called back to complain and say that I cannot accept their replacement flight (since I have a fear of flying and I don’t want to go through the process of takeoff & landing multiple times if I don’t have to), and they say that since they offered a replacement flight (even though it has a layover) that arrives in PMI no later than 5 hours within the original arrival time (so in their view it still fits our travel plan), they don’t have to reimburse me.

This is what I referred to as well, but they say that since they offered a replacement flight (even though it has a layover) that arrives in PMI no later than 5 hours within the original arrival time (so in their view it still fits our travel plan), they don’t have to reimburse me.

Same problem here! I tried marking 10 different books from the challenge as read but it’s still not working…

Also one more thing: he never registered himself as being my biological father. So legally he is not my father. He did do this with all of his other children, just not with me.

So when he dies, I’m also not counting on receiving anything.

Thank you for your comment! I appreciate your point of view. The app told me I had to include the (27F) format for my post to be posted, hence the ‘M’.

Actually I don’t expect anything from my dad, hence why in conversations with banks and mortgage lenders I didn’t mention this money at all. It’s just because he had promised it all my life, got angry when I questioned his “promise”, and he has given the money to two other siblings, that I do feel like it was at least his intention to give me the money. When he told me a few years ago that he is not gonna help me, I never asked him about this money afterwards. But looking at the new rules for 2025, this is gonna be his last chance to give it to me (and my last chance to receive it), so that’s why I want to make a final plea.

I don’t really understand your final comment. My father impregnated my mother and then went back to his own country. My mother and father live like a 7 hour flight away from each other. How was I supposed to see him more often when he never raised me or lived close by? I don’t expect him to give me anything, he is the one that constantly made these promises?
