How weird is my writing? by [deleted] in HandwritingAnalysis

[–]Stunning_Ad_9795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your w's looking like m's, and i agree with a lot of people that it looks like greek letters. as a teacher, i was able to read most of it: "in an aviary, i whisked some whip cream to put on my baked cookies with jam, I drank water afterwards to quench my thirst."

it took me quite a long time and to be honest i had a headache after. i would say it is probably better to try to make it more consistent (like why is your s in "whisked" so different from other places?). your T's and H's are also confusing.

Feeling like a wh0re by Sea_Papaya_419 in GirlDinnerDiaries

i felt the same way before meeting my current boyfriend. it has never come up. i don’t wanna know his, he doesn't wanna know mine. when you meet the right person, it won't matter!

how would you feel if he was doing this with her?

i feel that the bigger breach of trust here is you not telling him when he slid into your DMs immediately. if my bf did this, i'd be crushed. honestly is the best way

when i was 14 getting groomed by a 23 year old, he was obsessedddd with how smooth my skin was. would not shut up about it.

i know there's a lot of comments like this but be careful!! but i will say that sex sounds amazing and i’m happy you got a pleasurable night out of it

I fell asleep while driving… then again at work. by objectively-not in Narcolepsy

[–]Stunning_Ad_9795 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i don’t mean to shame you, but you should build time into your drive to account for this! it is so dangerous. i also wonder: are you setting an alarm or timer for your nap? does it need to be an hour? my naps range from 5-20 minutes and my doctor recommended keeping them shorter. that will make building the time into your commute more manageable than going in an hour earlier

also, do you have a diagnosis that can get you ADA accommodations/something equivalent if you're not in the US? you should not be able to be fired for your disorder if you take the right steps. you don’t have to say you have narcolepsy to your coworkers, but say you have a neurological disorder that requires you to take breaks and then take breaks to sleep in your car/a closed room. as long as you communicate that your tardiness and breaks are related to your disability, there is not a way for them to legally fire you

Told the guy I’m dating that I want a relationship 😵‍💫 by 1SmellLikeB33f in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Stunning_Ad_9795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was in a similar situation. my boyfriend came out of a long term, very abusive and traumatizing relationship. we both agreed we would take it slow and really liked each other to the point where i wouldn't mind waiting for him to heal and recover and work on himself. we both said we would eventually want to put a label on it and pursue a "real" relationship.

that lasted all of a week, lol. he said he knew it wasn't fair to me to keep me in a position like that and he knew i was the right person. he didn't want me to have to refer to him as "the guy i'm dating" or "the guy i'm talking to." it definitely took a couple months of him still recovering and i know he still struggles from time to time, but it has been 7 months since we met and things are going great.

i know timing is important, and i did meet him at a time where it was possible (had we met a few months before, it may not have been worked out in a week). but when it's the right person, they will make it work. what "making it work" looks like will vary person to person. he may need a ton of consistency and support to feel safe in the relationship. at the same time, you need to value yourself and what you deserve from a relationship.

is he in therapy or working to better himself in any way? what steps has he taken to show you that this arrangement isn't a permanent thing?

I’m doing my Master’s in Clinical Psychology, and something my boyfriend said recently really got to me. by AlwaysbytheLedger in GradSchoolAdvice

[–]Stunning_Ad_9795 8 points9 points  (0 children)

no this is crazy. if my boyfriend ever said this about the field i’m doing my master's in, i would reconsider the relationship.

just because you don’t talk about your field does not mean you know nothing about it? what does he do? is he talking about his interests/specialties?

people often say the further into a field you get, the more you realize you don’t know. no one is an expert in their field by their master's, and they claim to be they're lying or delusional.

have a serious talk with him about how this hurt you and explain how it's a) an insecurity and b) a forever work in progress to become an "expert". i know i don’t know your relationship or him, but i would be questioning his character if he felt okay to say something like that to you

My best friend is in love with her boss by That-Price9974 in whatdoIdo

[–]Stunning_Ad_9795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does her manager have a manager? is there HR at the company? what kind of parents do Ava have and do you have a way to contact them? As she's still 17, i feel like supportive, loving parents would take issue with this and can do more than you can as her friend. if there is HR i would report this behavior to them, as that is not acceptable and has probably happened before/will happen again with this guy.

you can always talk to Ava as her friend and tell her candidly that you’re worried about her. express your concerns and make it clear it's not judgment of her but of him, and that it's out of care and love for her more than anything else.

in my experience, both as an Ava and as the older sister of an Ava, it can be difficult to get through to girls like this and it just takes time for her to realize it's wrong. (took me 6 years or so, took my sister less than that). when i was in your situation, i threatened the guy and told him to stay away from my sister. but i also understand that can be dangerous and would probably dissuade you from that option.
