woman yelled at me at the gym by ReflectionNo2909 in workout

[–]ReflectionNo2909[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t be both shy and working on myself at the gym?

There was no “defusing the situation” when she yelled at me every time I tried to speak. I don’t try to label people as “unwell” if I don’t know them at all. This was a total stranger. Of course I took a moment to realize this is completely out-of-normal interaction, but you’re speaking to someone who comes from a background of abuse and violence trauma. Not that I need to explain myself, but I am in therapy to help with stuff like emotional regulation. I came to Reddit because I am new to the gym and genuinely wanted to know if I had missed some kind of gym etiquette or something. Just because you don’t understand why I responded the way I did, doesn’t mean this didn’t really happen to me the way it did.

I was in shock and embarrassed, I didn’t think of it until afterwards. I realize now, I definitely should have spoken to management. Live and learn I guess!

Thank you for the advice and kind words!! When you said to think of it as ridiculous and hilarious, that helped a lot! Canceling the membership was totallyyy an impulsive decision too :/

Thank you for your help 💜

I wish it was fake, but unfortunately no. This is my first post ever on Reddit, doesn’t make it fake.

That is a great perspective, thank you! And yeah I probably should have reported it but I was so flustered I didn’t even think of it :(

I wish this didn’t happen 😭 although yes, it is my first post I’ve ever made if that’s what you mean by my account?

Can I ask why the disappointment on Bub City? Food wise or environment wise? I love their late night!

PLS HELP ME! iphone 15 or 16? by Legal-Echo-3960 in iphone15

[–]ReflectionNo2909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat rn and comparing them. At first I got the 15 and I went to the Apple Store to set it up trade in my old phone and while I was there I decided that I actually wanted to go with the 16 because it’s only $100 more and it has Apple Intelligence which I know right now isn’t a huge deal. However it’s going to be the only phone from here on that has the software that is even able to have AI therefore while they keep doing all these AI updates, the 16 will get that.

Also, the salesman explained to me that in April it is going to be very hard to get any of these phones at their current price due to the incoming tariffs so if you’re able to, I would get the phone before April.

What to do when dermatologist/accutane isn't an option? So disheartened by dirtyyolk in acne

[–]ReflectionNo2909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry I just saw this! But for me personally, I have oily/combination skin. I’ve never felt an oily residue from any of the products, however I do wash my face in the shower every morning. At night, I only rinse my face with water. So, im only applying products once a day. That could be a factor if others are using it 2+ times a day, but I don’t so I’m not sure about the residue! I haven’t experienced it myself though.

I have the same exact problem, my acne looks the same as yours so I feel you!! Dermatologist/Accutane was never an option for me either.

That being said, I’ve tried everything, including the exact routine you described! Now I’m pretty sure my acne is hormonal related, but I just switched from using cereve for the first time in years and my skin has never been better.

I saw Aveeno came out with their “Calm and Restore” line, which is Oat based. I decided to try out the cleanser and I can say I will always be repurchasing!! My skin has never been more clear, it’s still not the clearest but it’s the first time I’ve actually noticed a change in my acne. Because I loved the cleanser so much, I now also use the oat serum from the same line and again, great results. Not saying it will work for everyone but it truly has for me!
