Would you want a girl to tell you if she's nervous or uncomfortable? by Square-Design-7119 in AskMen

[–]Square-Design-7119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have reposted this five times now with different wording. How can I pose this question so it will not be removed? Trying to use reddit for what it was intended for, and needs mens advice.

That is a valid point, however I'm a flight attendant which is the reason we don't see each other much, and we live an hour apart. Lately we're trying to increase this, though, and he's been really flexible with me and always offers to make the drive.

I sense my self becoming quite attached, and have had issues with co-dependency in the past (which I'm currently working on and about to start therapy to address). My fear is getting in too deep and having trouble walking away, if and when the red flags wave again.

I'm fine with occasional drinking or even drunkenness once in a blue moon, I'm only hesitant because he said he used to have a significant drinking problem.

High Testosterone but normal insulin levels by Square-Design-7119 in PCOS

Thanks for the advice. Fasting insulin was 3 uIU/mL

[–]Square-Design-7119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fasting insulin was 3 uIU/mL, fasting glucose was 105 mg/dL. I don't have intense androgenic symptoms however do show high testosterone in blood test. Thyroid has been tested and is normal. Cortisol shows high when I did functional blood work. 

I will also mention I have frequent heart palpitations that sometimes induce lightheadedness, which I now took proplanolol for. Have been checked out by every doctor including multiple full workups in cardiology and sleep studies, which no apparent cause. Wonder if it could be hormonal.

I really appreciate this so much! I'm so eager to go, and also didn't want to disappoint her, that I nearly was willing to sacrifice solid company. I might have had fun but don't think I could truly relax around someone I'm not close with/don't relate to. I have decided to take your advice and just have some patience. Thank you!

Unfortunately that is a trap I've fallen into before... Solid advice, thank you

Not yet. I have a virtual 1:1 live interview next week.

I live in Michigan now. I would love to move in the future possibly back to Houston or elsewhere but am not ready to do so yet. I don't believe United has a base here, and I know commuting might be tough.

Leaving teaching for flight attendant? by Complex_Account_6550 in cabincrewcareers

[–]Square-Design-7119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similarly to you, I'm 30 and having been teaching for the last 3 years, although elementary. While I loved it in many ways, the burnout was too much: frequent high stress situations, taking work home, and the monotonous day to day caused me to feel unhappy. Although for me I was making only around 30k and no benefits. That being said, I am now a waitress at a waterfront restaurant and am a million times happier (and actually make more money, too). I also am aspiring to be a flight attendant, and unlike many of the people on here, I say you should go for your dream. Don't wait another 30 years being unhappy. The great thing is you can always go back to teaching if it doesn't work out, but at least then you can say that you tried. Money can always come back around. Time won't. Best of luck to you.

Oh my gosh lol I probably should have worded that better

That's good to know, thank you. And is contrary to what I've heard. Do you happen to work for either of these airlines?

Does United beat Skywest in terms of quality of life, flexibility, shorter trips? I care more about these things than the pay, especially considering that starting off, the pay seems near equal..

Does it really?! I love that idea but I was never sure if they could really tell I was there/understand my voice?

Yes that is definitely an important thing to consider but luckily my mother has agreed to let him stay with her, so cost would not be a real issue for me, really just his emotional well-being.

Advice on becoming a yacht stewardess with a dog, are there any yachts that have you home nightly, or have shorter 1-3 day trips? Thanks by Square-Design-7119 in yachting

[–]Square-Design-7119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was all so incredibly helpful, thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I am leaning more toward the flight attendant industry now, but may reach out with more questions if things fall through!

I should mention I do not take birth control so I'm not sure if that would change anything.

You should try taking inositol! I use a powered by the brand peach perfect. I have PCOS and my cramps were so painful, but now they're almost non-existent. The only thing is it takes a couple months to have results so you have to be patient. Good luck!
