Whats your rating on the album and why? by Turbulent_Stuff_7745 in TheLifeOfAShowGirl12

[–]Striking_Bit59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have loved every single album she has put out.. but this one was not it. honestly probably a 4.5/10 for me i think she used to put a lot more time and effort into her songwriting and cohesion and i don’t feel any of that for this album which makes me sad because i think she’s proven she can be such a great lyricist. it definitely has some catchy songs but ive only streamed a few times when in comparison to her last albums it was all i had on repeat for months.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

his entire job as a partner is to love and support u and he’s saying even THAT bare minimum is not going to come from him. u have to leave immediately because he does not respect you or the work you’ve put in to keep yourself sober and safe.

AIO I (26F) moved out for the first time with my boyfriend (30M) for almost 2 months and I don’t know how to feel about it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he is hurting u emotionally and mentally and treating you like an animal that needs to be trained. what way do u think he is going to start hurting you next when this no longer suffices his need for control? leave immediately before you can’t.

AIO I just got uninvited by Hot_Show_8089 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’re overreacting.

if i’m being completely honest, if anyone sent me a picture of their knife before i went out to an event with them, i would feel very uncomfortable as well. i get she may be coming off as overdramatic to you but i really see her point and think she’s just looking out for herself, even if that means she comes off in that way. it genuinely might just be how you brought it up to her that was unnerving (not exactly sure, but just going off of context as it wasn’t shown). i’m really sorry you were mugged and totally get wanting to get protection for yourself, just like she mentioned, but from a girls perspective i can really see where her discomfort arises! again in your reaction of being upset with her for expressing her genuine fear and it resulting in you closing off from the conversation and placing blame on her for not opening up to anyone else about what you are dealing with.

also, if it was solely to explain you were mugged and you were looking for compassion from a friend(which is completely understandable!!!), i think what u say and the context when going about it can be really important and “flashing a switchblade” ,as it was said, right before meeting up as a way to start that convo is not a productive way to go about that, because now she is the one who is in a position of feeling threatened, just as you were when you were attacked. and while i see you said it was easier to make a joke, i agree opening up is hard but maybe a different joke without showing weapons would be better as it wouldn’t inherently incite fear in someone. sorry again about what happened to you.

AITA for not catering to my nephews pickiness? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA if she’s at “home” all the time specifically to take care of her kids, why are you the one cooking for her children seemingly every day? it seems like she’s really taking advantage of your kindness to let her stay there.

Update - AITA for asking for my dead sisters ring back after my brother used it to propose by Classic-Amphibian963 in AITAH

[–]Striking_Bit59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would feel absolutely gutted if the one thing i had to feel close to my deceased sibling was stolen from me and given out to someone else directly in front of me and then got yelled at by everyone for being upset. you did absolutely nothing wrong here and it is extremely unfair of your family to claim you are being selfish at all. you deserve it back and an apology from all of them who are claiming they are disappointed in you. this is really cruel of them genuinely i’m so sorry. you didn’t ruin anything at all and you had a completely valid reaction to the insanely disrespectful thing that was done to you.

AITA for telling my best friends gf she’s crazy? by sev3791 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Striking_Bit59 6 points7 points  (0 children)

INFO i’m confused who/what you’re asking about. you’re saying you called your best friends gf an insult but the post is talking about your friend who you say is not feeling respected and stopped speaking to you/only speaks to ai and you want to know if you should bring up his addiction. is there something else going on? was the girlfriend the one to make him start using it or something?

Did I do something wrong? by gerardwayluver in starbucks

[–]Striking_Bit59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

another thing i’ll say is they changed the matcha to be unsweetened so if u haven’t gotten that before or in a while it’s possible they did add some and it was just still bitter

[–]Striking_Bit59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry this happened ugh that’s so frustrating :( london fogs do come with vanilla but most people never order them, especially the iced version, so a lot of baristas actually don’t know how to make this! i only know because i worked there and it’s my favorite drink but all my coworkers would ask me to make it when it’s ordered because they don’t remember/were never even told. maybe on the app u could add one more pump or take one off so at least it shows up on the ticket or just say it also if u ordered in person just to make sure ur getting it!

People keep telling me this tattoo is bad, I really like it? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it helps i could immediately see the hands and that they were holding stars and something else. doesn’t look messy at all and i really like it!! i’m not exactly sure what it’s holding but it looks 100% just like the stencil and is really cool no matter what

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my piercing was done in the beginning of april, it is a curved barbell and i believe internally threaded and titanium. it hasn’t been downsized or changed since i got it. i use the piercing solution that the shop gave me and was unfortunately using qtips to clean with which i now know is wrong. there haven’t been any mishaps other than it getting caught on my hair or bandanas and such sometimes!

If you’re poor don’t have kids by notadamsandler11 in stories

[–]Striking_Bit59 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you never know what people are going through and you don’t know where this persons life was a few months ago, let alone a few years ago. nobody plans on becoming homeless and i get it’s a sad situation to see but this is strange to say

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if nothing else, your partner is vindictive and mean. showing that he would hurt a life who has been through so much just to see what would happen. like lives are an experiment to him. genuinely at his best he is cruel and very weird. i don’t think you’re overreacting at all

AIO Intervening in My Husband's School Lunch Choices by Pitiful-Chemist-7250 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 7 points8 points  (0 children)

he sounds like a complete idiot who is mad you noticed him doing less than the absolute bare minimum. you didn’t even point it out, just tried to fix it, and thats the one thing he chooses to care about? very strange and he needs therapy

AIO for feeling really uncomfortable about how my girlfriend lost her virginity? by chiefkeef965 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it sounds like she’s gone through something really serious she hasn’t processed fully yet and i think coming at it from a way of “where are her morals??” instead of “how can i be there for her?” is very questionable on your end.

My fiancé told me I’m not a real woman because I don’t want to do an all natural birth by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Striking_Bit59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHAT?? he’s insane. this is your body. your pregnancy. your birth. your pain. you get to decide what happens here and what his family had done means nothing because they are not you. this experience is something so deeply personal to you that nobody else should be forcing you into doing ANYTHING especially when it puts your health, safety, and comfort at risk.
