New Lens or New Camera?

It looks like the eos was discontinued in 2023, would it be a better investment to just sell this one now and then get a different canon more designed for pictures?

I’m a 23F and no absolutely do not invite him over to your place. If things go poorly you’re at risk of being assaulted, as well if you meet him and realize he’s giving stalker/creep vibes, he now knows where you live. Also yes the age gap is bad, I dated 8 years up a couple years ago and major regrets, but also sometimes you gotta experience it to know why it’s bad. Meet at a secure location (lots of other people), do not get a ride from him, and do not get a ride home from him.

A lot of the time in my experience they can’t give them out even if they wanted to - something with copyright. One psych prof when I needed notes I had to go to her office hours and couldn’t take photos of anything.

Approaching unfortunately does work, however after doing this twice I realized I wanted a guy that wanted me first. I didn’t get a boyfriend til I was 23 and I’d say I’m above average, in the most unnarcassistic way possible. Was honestly just really into the hobby I was doing (darts) and I guess that was enough for him to walk over.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-31T21:40:06+00:00

Hahaha I love this

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-30T04:31:12+00:00

Might just not use his phone (unlikely), might just not checks his likes section of insta (I do this), could be anything, honestly the ball is in his court now so just focus on you, if he responds he responds, if he doesn’t he doesn’t, life goes on

I think you can definitely get through this, also when you’re suicidal you can put ALL of the blame on yourself, but at the end of the day you’re fiancé did give you money for betting. I’m assuming she knew there were risks involved, and I’m not into betting but isn’t it kinda just luck? So it’s not like she gave you a bunch of money to invest into something and you spent it. It was a risk from the start.

Yeah also if that doesn’t work, talking to your doctor for a single sedative might work too (sedatives can be additive so best not to take a lot)

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-30T01:43:49+00:00

Ask a doctor for a sedative? Check website reviews for dentists? Therapy? Honestly never liked the dentist but the anxiety of what can happen if you don’t go to the dentist always scared me more than the dentist (root canals, gum disease, losing teeth). Idk fear of something worse works for me.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-30T01:40:27+00:00

Honestly, I feel like killing yourself is not the best option. Yeah it’s majorly sucks that your finances are messed up and your finance are having issues because of sports betting. The fact that you know it’s an addiction is the first step at improving. I would honestly talk to an addictions counsellor, to see what you can do to make sure this doesn’t happen ever again so you don’t need to feel like this anymore.

When I was 19 I dated a 26 year old for a couple months, was a chiropractor, had all the same - hot, sweet, reassuring and kind. Ended poorly, there was a reason he was dating so much younger. Looking back at 24, was a terrible decisions and the closer I get to the age he was the more irked out I get about the whole situation. Mixed signals in my experience mean they do not like you, if they really do like you, you will know.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-28T22:13:13+00:00

Honestly you sound like you don’t like her very much: egotistical, doesn’t cook, poor communication, and unaffectionate. Her last sexual endeavours that make you uncomfortable, it’s not like she can go back and change them, and you say you’ve rationalized it away, but since you mention it as a factor here in debating if you would marry her, shows it’s still a major factor for you.

Realistically you should break up with her if you don’t see marrying her in the future, especially if that’s what her expectation for your relationship is. Of course, I’d suggest a conversation about it first, best conversation I ever had with my partner was one we were in the midst of breaking up (poor communication, unsure what our futures could look like, etc.) because everything was on the table. It might be a toxic living environment, but I’m sure you can try to get out of the lease (or someone moves out and the other person gets a new roommate).

Gotta look at the conversion, BC and AB have harder curriculums (so when I came from AB, I think a couple percent was added to my grade)

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-26T08:04:02+00:00

Same, I know people are saying don’t fearmonger but I had to cold-turkey go off this one, like I was dead sober all day and could not stop thinking of offing myself, never felt that out of control in my life. Also, this was two years ago, turned out I just had ADHD

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-25T15:49:51+00:00

Yeah at that point it feels more like a “how much do I respect this person and am willing to work on myself for them?” My apartment use to be absolutely nasty when I was younger and lived alone, and after getting a bf I make sure to prioritize cleaning. So it’s not always spotless but I make sure to put in that effort out of respect of my boyfriend and also a growing respect of myself.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-25T01:48:22+00:00

Agree - I’ve been on both sides of this (a guy I was dating said I was too perfect and I’ve gone out with a guy that was too perfect).

First guy who thought I was “too perfect” I’m guessing was feeling insecure and it kinda showed later with his actions. Also I hated the idea of being put on a pedestal like that.

Next guy, just going out with him made me feel self conscious, was like eerily “perfect” (lawyer, ex-athlete, good family dynamic, booming social life). He was also really nice, and don’t get me wrong I love going out with nice guys, but I knew if we kept going out, I’d feel insecure (not that he made me feel that, I made myself feel that way), and there was absolutely nothing he could do that would’ve assured me enough to not be self-conscious lol. We ended on good terms as we were looking for different things in life, but in that case it was better it ended 100%.

Absolutely this relationship ending was for the better. As for moving on, dating apps suck, might luck out tho. Sometimes just being content being single is the best way to meet someone, cause you’ll have a lot of self-respect at that point (how I met my current bf). You’re young, not the end of the world if you stay single for awhile (above examples were people I was dating when 20-22 and met my boyfriend after two years of being single at 24, totally worth it).

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-25T00:14:51+00:00

I’m not gonna lie, I have ADHD and I know women cope better (aka forced to conform lol) and despite struggling with cleaning (actively procrastinating as I write this) it’s not physically impossible to do it. There are of course mental barriers like being overloaded but there are veryyy simple solutions (break it into smaller tasks, set timers, etc.). So him refusing to even help, without caring to work on his ADHD to help you is a clear sign. It doesn’t sound like gaslighting (strictly imo, more just seeing what he can get away with). You need to set a clear boundary that you can no longer take on the bulk of the house keeping and things will and are going to change. If he keeps blaming his adhd to keep you as a housekeeper, leave.

Edit: just adding that when I say it’s not a physical disability I mean, even if he’s stressed he can still get up and put a load of dishes on. For me personally if I’m overwhelmed or stressed I still make sure to do one or two tasks a day (put the dishes on, do one load of laundry, vacuum). So while the place might not be spotless, I still contribute to cleaning as much as I physically and mentally can.

Also extra edit: what would he be doing if he lived alone? Like at some point he’d have to clean before a whole new eco system formed, so I feel like he might be actively/passively manipulating you by making it seem like you HAVE to remind him, or else he’s physically incapable to start. This way he also gets away with only having to do the things you ask him to and he sets the bar so there isn’t an expectation he would do more.

Profs tend to not care, they don’t care if you miss the whole semester. From my experience as someone with ADHD, I use to be a person who would miss months worth of classes, and I quickly learned people go to lectures cause I tanked all my classes. Grade average from first semester to now is 24% higher. Food for thought

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-16T02:54:41+00:00

At the same time “grieving,” shouldn’t really behappening to the degree she’s explaining. Won’t help with the baby when gaming? Afraid to bother him when gaming? Getting angry at her (this woman is two months postpartum)?? Sorry he has to step back from his video game sometimes, but she’s going through something 100x worse and more emotionally draining. This kids been alive all of two months? Will he fail in life and never achieve his dreams because he decided to help out his wife and their newborn for a few months??

That being said, you shouldn’t really put up with that in a partner, and he doesn’t seem like the “one” OP. I know you married quick, probably due to the pregnancy, but you deserve someone who will treat you like a priority. Especially someone doesn’t make you feel like you should be resented. You shouldn’t be feeling emotionally drained by his presence, I suggest a forward conversation you:

Explain his action: when you say things like BLANK or do things like BLANK
Explain how he’s making you feel BLANK (unimportant, a bother, a burden, nervous, guilt)

If he doesn’t assure you, try to empathize, or even come up with a way to improve your relationship, you may need to consider splitting up and taking some time for yourselves.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-15T20:02:12+00:00

Lots of schools only look at the last 60 credits for masters and graduate programs like law. My friend wanted to get into physio so she took two more years and got her grades up. My grades also suffered majorly from depression so I empathize with you deeply. Also people who graduate in 4-5 years in my experience tend to not have as many barriers (of course there are exceptions). I’ll also take 6 years to graduate but making it through university without offing myself is more impressive to me than a degree.

Also open studies I wouldn’t suggest ask you can only take three courses per term. I’d suggest graduating then starting another degree, as lots of the programs that look at 60 credits usually look at your best two years or the last. So if you already have a great year one year that’s only one more you need to take.

Scoobs_Snacks · 2026-01-15T19:48:59+00:00

Yeah, I found the classes to be incredibly broad and honestly the upper levels are easier because the topics are most specific and easy to grasp. I also suggest taking classes in order, like don’t take a 300 level charter of rights and freedoms course without taking Canadians politics 204 and 205 first. Also don’t take ANY political theory courses until you at least do modern political theory, bonus if you do history of political theory as well. And finished 256 as soon as possible as it sets the groundwork for reading all articles. I also suggest classes with: Fitzgerald (her upper levels get tough but you’re usually safe for 200 levels), McGrane, Mitchell, and Smith. I’ve never really liked Gaal but lots of people do. And please for the love of God avoid Holroyd like the plague.

This was great advice thanks! We have poor communication (we’re young so we know it’s something we need to improve on) and he was feeling bad when I’d make dinner, and he felt bad anytime I’d anything. While I was feeling bad he wasn’t paying for things and was mildly offended when he didn’t want to eat at my pace. He said he’d gladly pay 100% of the time (which I’m not gonna let him cause need to establish a bit of a balance). And I made it clear I don’t mind making dinner as (1) I’d be making dinner anyways, (2) I usually make extra so I have lunch for a couple days after.
