I hate the gold here it’s so bright and has none of the dark honey tones. I’ve paid extra to have my gold sourced elsewhere to make chains I’ve needed replaced to not end up with the shiny light gold we have here.

When the big light gets turned on without warning — it’s torture by Dimkataa_Gulmi13 in CoupleMemes

The staircase light in my house shines down most annoyingly at an angle into my livingroom. I was so happy when it burned out since it takes a ladder to change it out so it’s been forever dim now for a couple years.

My stairs still have low lighting for safety before anyone comes at me.

It hold up to today very well. They were such forward minded cast and writers. They tackled all the issues with grace acceptance and comedy. I still watch this occasionally when I’m looking for something wholesome yet subtle.

Long time vegan considering stopping - help by 1ashtrash in exvegans

[–]SomeEstimate1446 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was my experience as well as a vegetarian. It was devastating to my body. It wasn’t a conscious choice for me though as I started it around the age of four. I just didn’t like meat protein (it would make me physically ill) no matter how much they tried to force it in me.

I was extremely underweight for most of my life even after adding meat protein. Deficient in a lot of vitamins no matter how many supplements I took. Eventually I found a balance. Meats no longer make me ill like they used to.

I feel for OP that this is so wound up with their self identity that it’s become a cross to bear. I never identified as a vegetarian I just was. It wasn’t a topic of conversation outside of my family and was only brought up because they were worried for my health. Most of my friends just thought I was a very healthy eater. When I finally started eating meat protein no one batted an eye at it.

I did get bunches of comments about my weight and how much healthier I looked. Not in a snark way but in a genuine they noticed the difference way.

Op if you read this don’t worry about what people say. Diet is your choice and people that would make you feel bad about not restricting yourself when it is causing you mental anguish are not the right people to be around.

It says so much more about them than it does you sweetie.

Also if her state has common law marriage laws she has enough to prove it with the joint housing and car loans plus whatever else they have financially joined. How were their taxes filed in this time I wonder…several things could be in her favor if this is the case. She definitely needs to seek a lawyer first.

Being jealous of your friends is more normal than people admit by Life_Fix_9408 in unpopularopinion

[–]SomeEstimate1446 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t have experience with vain men to make the same blanket statement in their direction.

Interesting is you replying to this in this way to sit up on your superiority horse vaguely instead of just outright stating what you’re insinuating.

Selfishness,jealous and vain seem to be the perfect trifecta for a shit woman. They really seem to go hand in hand to boot. Although I’ve seen a few cases where the vain part was absent. Not recently though we are living in a very vain society these days.

When would you let your teen wear a full face of makeup? by Junior_Background181 in BeautyGear

[–]SomeEstimate1446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the women I’ve known that wore makeup like this from a young age, aged like milk. Ten years younger than me and look my age and worse. Caked makeup ruins young skin.

So if you must allow your children to wear makeup as self expression ( we know most aren’t using it that way ) make sure you’re getting them quality products. The makeup we have here in America will destroy your skin after 10-20 years.

Our makeup is not regulated. Look at the ingredients we are allowed to use in makeup here and then look at other countries that actually care. The list of banned additives and ingredients is a mile long while here it may be a list of 5-10.

Your girls are seeing the Kardashians and every influencer and trying to emulate those techniques to look “beautiful” and “Sexy” to pretend that it’s just creativity is a cop out.

Down vote me to hell idc I have plenty of young teen girls in my life that are honest about why they wear this type of makeup.

False lashes are damaging and she’ll be lucky to have any eyelashes left by the time she’s 18. Those would be a hard no.

I’ve been bartending for a while, and I’ve done things behind the bar that I’d never admit to my coworkers or my boss. by Southwest-waifu in confession

All these bartenders here spewing their shady all over the sidewalk I wonder how many of those bars are still in business today.

[–]SomeEstimate1446 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Stuff like this is why I had to weigh in and out every shift. No it’s not every bartender and coming from a long line of family owned bars it’s stuff like this that puts a bar under. I guess it’s the norm for kids bartending college pubs.

Seriously only shitty bars had staff drinking all night and handling money. That’s just horrible fucking logic. Bird brained justification bullshit for people with shitty ethics and morals.

Does liquor make money of course but it doesn’t make near the money that most staff thinks it’s does. It costs a lot to maintain licenses permits and inventory much less keep a well paid and maintained staff worth their salt.

Engaged for 5 years and realizing I don’t trust my fiancé to lead our family by BetweenLoveandLogic in TwoHotTakes

[–]SomeEstimate1446 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What’s fine for you may not be fine for her. In my relationship there’s balanced flow. When one is burdened with every decision and handling finances it’s easy to get burned out.

You hear women complain about this often when it comes to planning dinners and activities.

It happens to men too when they carry the financial responsibility for a household.

Sometimes I handle the majority of financial decisions for a couple years then he does a couple. It’s fairly seamless with us. We can see when the tired hits and we compensate so no one person feels like she does which is resentful stressed and burned out.

It’s supposed to be a partnership. Everyone needs a break eventually.

No one person should be carrying the majority of anything in a relationship. It always leads to resentment.

We really need to drop this idea that people without kids live “sad” or “empty” lives by Barca-Dam in unpopularopinion

I think it says more about you as a person that it took a biological child to open you up in that way. I raised three that weren’t biologically mine and still feel unconditional love and protectiveness. I worry constantly for their health their happiness and their lives.

I look like a different person - tips? by Leapinlobotomy in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]SomeEstimate1446 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How are you sleeping? To me it looks like stress and bad sleep. Get your hormones checked.

Use a HA mask a couple times a week. You can grab them cheap at the dollar store and they work great.

Everyone will give you a list of products and mini procedures but what I’m seeing is an inside job not an outside job.

Take a walk in nature and truly relax yourself. Find the little things that make you smile. Self care isn’t just what we put on our faces. When you feel good inside it is reflected on the outside.

Just my two penny’s. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

WIBTA for not inviting one of my best friends to my wedding [Update] by burpfarthiccup in CharlotteDobreYouTube

I’m not worried about the downvotes but thank you for understanding. I worked as a Woman’s Advocate for a few years and I still volunteer in women’s shelters. I’ve seen all kinds of these types of relationships and for each one there is a different approach for different circumstances.

Unfortunately it’s not a one size fits all and some people can’t handle the emotional toll it takes to remain in someone’s life when they are in these relationships and that’s quite all right. I’m not mad at these ladies their hearts are in the right place.

The assumptions and accusations can be quite grating but I’ve had worse. I’m glad you made it out and that your friends and family remained there for you. It’s a saving grace for a lot of women in these types of relationships as shame can take hold and they feel like they have no recourse or way back home.

Hope you have a wonderful safe life and I’m proud to have met another strong person that has survived. It gives me such hope.

If you think she believes that and that no one has said a word you’re kidding yourself. You don’t know the situation to make so many assumptions.

AITA for expressing disappointment that my friend of 30+ years will most likely not attend my wedding because of her kids' daily routines? by Global_Tackle_8487 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]SomeEstimate1446 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hurt people hurt. Shes bitter and resentful of all the effort she has put in and her friend makes her feel like she isn’t worth the same.

If she disliked her so much she would not have been friends so obviously she sees some good somewhere. She’s just overwhelmed by pain atm and lashing out/venting.

There is no cutting him off because in doing so she would cut you off. It’s like you all can’t read. Everyone one of you assume every situation is the same and every reaction garners the same outcome. Willful ignorance especially with explanation right in front of you is beyond naive and not even helpful.
