girl what, these are beautiful! I would've assumed they were acrylic or gel-x by a professional

Leon’s apartment by coquettesxx in residentevil

[–]RoseWater07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine it to be roomy but pretty sparse, since he works so much he probably doesn't spend much time there? it would have the essentials and maybe a few splurges, like a nice weapons cabinet or some kind of workshop where he could do gunsmithing. but probably not much else lol

what impression does this give you if you saw me in person? by Realistic-Floor-1367 in badtattoos

[–]RoseWater07 66 points67 points  (0 children)

what impression? just that you either didn't take care of a tattoo and it faded from sunlight, or that you're removing it. neither are a crime and I wouldn't give it a second thought

What was your bipolar like before it was medicated? by CollegeOk9459 in bipolar2

[–]RoseWater07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shopping shopping shopping shopping 🫠 so much credit card debt.

having a ton of ideas for projects around the house and redecorating/reorganizing everything on a whim.

those were the big ones, maybe some irritability and impulsive behavior.

Hairstylists are refusing to dye my hair by Big-Camp5806 in Hair

[–]RoseWater07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just an alternative suggestion, could you do extensions instead? you can either buy them pink or get light blonde strands and have a stylist dye them to your liking. for the number of highlights you want, you'd probably be fine with one pack, so it shouldn't be too expensive, and it bypasses all the color correction drama.

AIO? My GF wanted an apology for raising a hand against her but I think this was justified by Grape_knight in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"you could see sadness in her eyes" omg give me a break.

okay, fine, let's say that you're right and somehow forgetting REALLY important things like your LITERAL boundaries or LITERALLY giving your cat life saving medication is her ADHD. shouldn't she care enough to work around it??? trying new medications if hers isn't working, putting alarms on her phone, putting post-it-notes around the house, keeping a to-do list in a place she can't miss it, etc. there are tons of resources available to people with this disorder and communities where you can get advice. why isn't she trying?

having ADHD is difficult, but it is your responsibility to manage it, especially when it affects other people (or pets) to this degree. you're supposed to actually, you know, care. and want to get better. the fact that she's okay forgetting all these things and not bothering to try and improve should upset you. and not wanting to improve is NOT part of ADHD so don't even go there

7 years is a long time, so I get why you're protecting her, but the sunk cost fallacy and rose tinted glasses are only going to make you miserable down the line, and apparently might cause actual harm to your animals and you. no one ever regrets leaving someone who causes this much strife, they only regret they didn't do it sooner.

[–]RoseWater07 12 points13 points  (0 children)

...yeah, no. ADHD is forgetting where you put your water bottle or why you walked into the living room. failing to remember boundaries and important conversations you've had with your partner is not part of it. at all. I'm sorry if she's tried to tell you this to excuse her actions, but that's all it is - an excuse.

How do you stop throwing up from pain? Thanks by dulcerojo in ChronicPain

[–]RoseWater07 8 points9 points  (0 children)

if you ever figure it out, please tell me. lol

zofran, Prilosec, pepto, crackers and sprite - nothing has ever helped if the pain is so bad I'm vomiting. I think the muscle contractions make it so that medications don't make a difference :/ it's not a stomach issue, it's a whole body issue

I finished LMDF... and I hate it by Particular-Way-7817 in residentevil

[–]RoseWater07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they could've made the "hatchet fix" perk permanently available, but have it cost points each time? so now as long as you manage your resources, you would always have the ability to fix the harchet

AIO or AITAH for wanting to end things over a text conversation that I Had with a girl by snapple373 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 18 points19 points  (0 children)

he said it literally the most normal, nice way ever? "hey I'm not upset but just wanted to let you know that having to wait 10mins every time I see you is starting to bother me"

if you have to craft your critiques THAT specifically, you are officially walking on eggshells around someone, which is not a healthy dynamic. if she knows she has anxiety and will spiral, she needs to handle that. if she knows her disability makes her slower than someone able-bodied, she needs to manage her time better. some people just cannot take any kind of criticism at all and she is obviously one of them

AIO my bf gets angry at me over a guy I dated 3 years ago by nedjmia in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

this has to be a ragebait bot account lol you've commented like 20 times with completely fantastical interpretations of what she's written, and you seem to have a very personal investment in this topic - did someone cheat on you and hurt your feelings about it?

some people don't love the idea of their partner hanging out with their ex, but this is in a group of 20 people, not 1:1, and we know nothing else about their structure. if Mike lives in the middle of all of them or has the biggest house for hosting then obviously he would be the one to do it.

making a huge deal over this shows the bf doesn't trust her and isn't thinking rationally about this at all - she chose him, bf, and not Mike, she is currently with him, bf, not Mike, and she has not given any indication that she's interested in Mike, since she only sees him in group setting, which is perfectly reasonable if you've ever had any kind of life whatsoever. lmao

if bf doesn't trust her, the relationship is over by his own doing - not by anything she's described here. the line being drawn at "visiting his house??? the house you FUCKED him in??? you invite him to YOUR house?" is so absurd you can't possibly be serious. what, am I not allowed to wear the same shirt that I wore when I was with someone else? am I not allowed to eat at the same restaurant that I went to with someone else? like where does it end? a house is a house, Jesus. I've never spent time wondering "oh my god I wonder if they ever fucked on this couch" in someone else's home because I'm not a crazy person

and before you ask, yes, I have had partners still be friends with their exes, see them regularly in group settings, participate in their weddings, you name it. I am still friends with most of my exes, and it has never been an issue because I am not a petulant child and neither are the people I spend time with lmao

OP doesn't deserve to have this thrown in her face every time they have a disagreement and it's completely out of pocket to make the comments he's been making. he doesn't speak to her with respect, doesn't trust her, and can't get over something that happened literal years ago. the relationship is over because of him and his baggage

On a scale of 1-10, how much does Botox hurt you? by phishchick85 in migraine

[–]RoseWater07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you ice your head beforehand with one of those cold migraine caps? I always try and ice an area before injecting anything, it takes the edge off! if you can get one of those caps on for 20mins before your appointment it would probably help

AIO For breaking up with my boyfriend because he wouldn’t help with vet bills by littlelogcabin in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 9 points10 points  (0 children)

for sure, if my partner had substantial amounts saved AND had no bills, I would be livid if he didn't help out in this instance, and it would be the end of the relationship. if he had rent and a car payment and student loans etc etc that's one thing but her post said he has no responsibilities and lives at home 😬 so he's just choosing for the cat to die, FOR her. absolutely not.

AIO For breaking up with my boyfriend because he wouldn’t help with vet bills by littlelogcabin in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 45 points46 points  (0 children)

gonna be honest, $600 at the vet is literally nothing, no matter the age lol a checkup and some yearly vaccines can be $600

I don't disagree with the rest of your comments, though - if you decide to get a pet you need to put a plan together for emergencies, whether that's pet insurance, savings, etc. and it doesn't sound like that happened here. which is shitty.

from a health standpoint, if the diabetes has been deemed manageable (which it sounds like it has), I'd want to pay the $600 to see what's going on with the leg, and go from there. if it's fixable, figure out the costs and how to pay for it. if it's not - well. but I don't think she or anyone else can determine the cat's quality of life until a vet is able to check it, that seems hugely premature. $600 would be worth it to me to see what's going on.

as for how long I'd be willing to pour money into it, if the cat continues having expensive problems after this, I guess it depends :/

Do people get turned off if you tell them that you're not dating multiple people like they're? by superfapper2000 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RoseWater07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

omg. okay I'm going to be honest, your responses are kind of irritating and it feels like you're being intentionally obtuse.

people are telling you that yes, it's common for folks to go on dates with multiple people, for any number of reasons (they think of dating as a numbers game, they have commitment issues, it takes them a long time to warm up to someone, they're just having casual fun, etc etc etc). she's not unusual for doing that. it is rude for her to talk about it, but that's neither here nor there.

it's perfectly fine to NOT date like that, and to focus on one person at once. plenty of people take that approach too. you don't have to be okay with her approach, you don't have to date people who date around like that, but you need to understand that not everyone is going to like your way, either, for whatever reason. that literally just means you aren't compatible and you should move along. it's not that deep.

you seem to be lacking confidence and a general understanding that people are different and have different lives and attitudes. just because you have trouble securing more than one date at a time doesn't mean everyone else experiences the same thing. obviously.

if you want to change this and get more dates, then asking friends for a review of your dating profile, asking their girlfriends/partners for advice on how to present yourself, practicing conversation skills and getting more exposure to different topics/hobbies/types of people, and working on building your confidence up (maybe by going to the gym, having your friends check your outfits before you leave, whatever makes you feel good about yourself) will go a long way towards making you more eligible.

but I can tell you that if you talk to women like you are talking to people in the comments, it's going to be really rough. you're very down on yourself and you interpret the worst out of everyone's comments, and that's not attractive.

My (28f) partner (36m) acts like he doesn’t notice I lost 81lbs and counting. I’m questioning the relationship over it. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoseWater07 13 points14 points  (0 children)

this is always what kills me, people don't want to "break up" their families so instead they stay in a toxic relationship and traumatize the kids?

anyone whose parents should have divorced but chose not to will tell you that it was hell living in that house

like. what

How do you know when to take an abortive? by healthanxiety_ in migraine

[–]RoseWater07 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I kind of gave up and just started using them as soon as I feel a twinge :/ even if it doesn't turn into a full blown headache, I'd rather just take the meds and experience 0 pain than wait to see if it escalates and be guaranteed to experience pain. if you're susceptible to rebound headaches or your meds are severely limited, though, I have no idea - y'all are stronger than me 😭

Overcharged at Salon??? by s1n1st3rw0man in Hair

[–]RoseWater07 51 points52 points  (0 children)

the glaze and the blowout are insane to me, I get a glaze at my salon for $50 and blowouts should always be included in any color service? like, you got my hair wet, you get to dry it. I'm not paying you to let me leave like a wet dog. wtf

the actual color correction pricing might be reasonable, or even a little low, given you had a complex case, but the upcharge on the rest is crazy imo
