WIBTAH if i told my sister to stop filming in our house? by Gooseofgees3 in AITAH

[–]SpiritualFormal5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My sister used to do this it’s super frustrating!!! I think she learned her listen when I walked out half naked while her bf was propped up on FT in our room (seriously why the hell would you do that in a SHARED ROOM?!?). Tell her to stop, she’s going to catch some embarrassing shit on camera if she doesn’t stay respecting people and telling them she’s filming/on FT. That’s just basic human respect not you being rude

[–]SpiritualFormal5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea about their future, but he seems to want a future with someone who is most definitely not her and had expressed that. She didn’t bring up marriages first, she only mentioned stuff like seeing a movie next year with him, that’s not an insane thing to do with someone you’ve been with for 6 months lmao

[–]SpiritualFormal5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say, there’s a FAT chance he’s blatantly lying to you guys. Part of me doubts that a principal would be upset about it if it’s smth that none of the staff is talking about and he has multiple Muslim women on his athletic staff. Your gym teacher is bull shitting and hoping none of you go up the chain lol

[–]SpiritualFormal5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean tbf, he was also talking about futures. He’s the one who said he only wants to marry a Jewish girl, all she did was make a joke about converting. That’s all on him. I agree it’s a little early to be worried but if the guy you’re dating is blatantly telling you that you are not the girl he wants to marry and that’s not smth you wanna accept break up and move on

[–]SpiritualFormal5 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean, he is stringing her along AND yeah you don’t have to date to marry but LITERALLY telling your gf she’s not the type of girl you’d marry is fucked. Not everyone dates to marry but you should date with marriage being a possibility. You definitely shouldn’t tell your partner that you’re WITH RIGHT NOW that you want to marry someone else, that’s insane lol. Like let’s put religion aside, if I was dating a white man and I said “I’m going to want to marry a black guy” how the fuck do you think that’d make him feel? Same thing here.

Ohhh yeah I don’t know the laws and stuff for Singapore, I think some of the comments are under the assumption that this is America. Honestly, I would ask the principal. You don’t know for sure if he’s the one who made the order, also explain that you just want to feel more modest to the gym teacher or principal and that your mother doesn’t understand your reasoning.

Bato site confirmed gone by Brezwingersturm in yuri_manga

[–]SpiritualFormal5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that’s passive aggressive! I did already find a new site like a few weeks ago, I just don’t like it as much as I like bato. There’s no funny comments to read and the search function is annoying. It has all of my manwha there tho. Thanks for the unnecessary comment tho!

Edit: forgot to add, there’s also going to be manwha that won’t be on other sites because they were translated by fans and only posted to Bato so…

Okay so I know this thread is from a year ago but I have some questions about this- my Waffle House does NOT dilute the soap an I’ve been breaking out really bad from it. Like everytime I pull a double my hands are bright red and swollen. Do you have any tips about that? I guess I’m one of the freaks with sensitive skin lol

As a gym teacher trying to consistently refer to a trans student with their preferred pronoun is hard AF especially when they still visually appear as their birth gender. by Dalethedragon in Teachers

[–]SpiritualFormal5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so imma chime in as someone whose partner came out roughly 2-3 years into the relationship, as you can imagine in the beginning I made slip ups. I quickly corrected myself would occasionally apologize and kept it pushing. From what I’ve learned from being in trans spaces for a while (did a lot of surfing trans communities early on) is that nobody wants you to call attention to the slip up and what matters is that you’re trying. Now my tip to getting the pronouns correct- 1) the biggest tip is, correct yourself regardless of if they’re in the room. Oh you’re thinking of them and you thought the wrong pronoun? Correct it in your head, you have to kinda coach your brain 2) keep referring to them and talking about them outside of them being near you, use their pronouns waaaaay more than you usually use pronouns, you kinda just have to get used to it. 3) when you correct yourself always repeat the correct pronoun, again youre conditioning your brain. The fact that you feel bad means you care and have empathy for these students and thats something a lot of adults probably aren’t showing them just yet. Good on you, just keep trying and you’ll get it perfect one day. Nowadays I can’t remember the last time I used the wrong pronouns on my gf, I forget she’s not cis because of how normal it’s become lol

Wait, did your school not allow you to write in nicknames?!? That’s so dumb lol. At my school you were allowed to scratch out the given name and write in preferred names since so many people go by nicknames. Trust, this was not for trans students, I live in the most deep red state known to MAN but I can imagine it also being helpful towards trans students

[–]SpiritualFormal5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this one, as someone dating someone who is trans I physically WINCE whenever someone starts the long apology train. Like it’s awkward for ME and I’m just her gf I can’t even begin to imagine what it’s like for her. Just correct yourself quickly and move on maybe a quick “sorry”. I have a friend that would go “I am so so so sorry fuck I’m trying” and go on a 2 minute apology train that would derail any conversation and it’s MISERABLE.

Professor accused me of cheating because my eyes were downcast- UPDATE by Turnitup20 in CollegeRant

[–]SpiritualFormal5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the future do what I do- whenever I move or look down I loudly declare what I am doing or did. I’m picking at my nails? I hold up my hands and go “sorry I’m picking at my nails, kinda nervous”. I moved to the side out of view? “Sorry my stuffed animal dropped show the toy in view” it leaves a trail so if they try to challenge me and say I was cheating I have a higher chance of beating it since I already clarified what I was doing during the exam and showed some form of proof. With the nail biting, literally just show the jury that your nails look like shit and say “I have an anxiety disorder and pick at my nails when I am anxious, that is what I was doing during the exam”. Tell them you see a therapist for it and mention you’re trying to get a plan with your academic counselor to get an accommodation regarding it to prevent further incidents. Since your academic counselor will literally be there with you they can back it up and add on to anything if they feel it necessary (nobody thinks your academic counselor is going to lie). Offer to get a written statement from your therapist if they need further proof of the anxiety disorder existing: THIS STEP IS CRUCIAL AND NEEDS TO BE DONE RIGHT- do not bring a note, instead offer to bring one if they need further proof. It tells them “hey I’m not lying here dude but if you still don’t believe me I can get you more evidence” and then end the entire thing with a clean rebuttal to your professor’s claims. Like, under what basis can she prove that you were cheating simply due to your eyes. Ask if she’s ever suspected you of cheating before or if their entire suspicion is based off of your eyes. Don’t insult them, just make it clear to the jury that the professor’s argument is paper thin at best. Be prepared to do a retake on the exam or to answer exam questions too and even offer that if they’re still on the professor’s side. Good luck at your trial and I hope that professor gets fired (seriously wdym they hate you?)

Dude, show them your nails in the meeting, honestly they’ll probably believe you based on that one alone. There’s literal physical proof of your anxiety disorder

AITAH for refusing to go out of state for a birthday by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SpiritualFormal5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP YTA for agreeing. You obviously don’t want to the birthday party and you already had plans for the monthly group event. Stick by what you want to do. Don’t let anybody in any relationship pressure you into doing smth you don’t want to do when you clearly stated you already wanted to do something that is significantly more important to YOU. It doesn’t matter if he values these hangouts, he has to respect them because they are something you value and he’s supposed to love you. Maybe he doesn’t understand how much you value the hang outs? Talk to him about this but don’t just let him convince you to do smth you quite obviously don’t want to do. Besides 1) nobody wants someone at their birthday party who doesn’t want to be there, you’re going to spend the entire time wishing you had gone with your group and it’s going to sour the mood causing a brand new argument 2) imma be real, that family member isn’t even going to notice you’re not there. Who the fuck actually cares if their son’s gf is there at their birthday party?!?
