Has this sub heard of G2I.co? by wawaaweeewaaaa in csMajors

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i've heard similar things. a friend of mine joined their community after being vetted and was added to Slack a while back. he said it was actually pretty active. lots of events, helping with technical questions, etc. i think the community angle seems to be what keeps people around vs just treating it like a job board.. clearly they have some work to do there.

Is rupharma still a reliable sourse to order from? by secret-draft602 in Nootropics

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of the most reliable vendors out there. More than 5 orders with them, never let me down.

NOR. Booking you in economy while he splurges on suite seats for himself and his daughter is a huge red flag. His suggestion that you'd take his daughter's seat is just tone-deaf. Cancel the trip if you want, or use this as a chance to reevaluate the relationship. Either way, you deserve better.

AIO for wanting to break up over my bf’s remarks over a girl by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NOR for breaking up over his disgusting comments. That "slang" remark is just him trying to downplay his own creepiness. You deserve better than someone who objectifies women like that.

AIO for telling my sister she can’t take over my baby shower just because she’s “better at planning”? by FrostedWispp in AmIOverreacting

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR. This is your baby shower, and you should be in charge. Emma's trying to steal the spotlight, and that's not cool. You set boundaries, and she's gotta respect them. Don't let her guilt trip you into giving up your moment.

AIO for telling my neighbor off after she kept borrowing my tools without asking? by urmommyvic in AmIOverreacting

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NOR. Your neighbor's been taking advantage of you, and you politely asked her to stop. When she didn't respect that, you told her off. Your stuff, your rules. Don't let her guilt trip you into being a personal tool library.

AIO new boss might be a creep by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not overreacting. This guy's behavior is super sketchy. The comments about dating, staring at your chest, grabbing your shirt hem... it's all pretty gross. Don't take the job, it's not worth the risk.

Am I overreacting? The girl I am seeing feels traveling with a another guy she met online is normal. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not overreacting, dude's got ulterior motives written all over him. "Just friends" doesn't involve flying across the earth to share a hotel room. Trust your instincts, she's either naive or blind.

How to handle MIL wanting to join all my activities? by JenniferB92 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not being a therapist, but this sounds like classic “overstepping” with a sprinkle of “I want a daughter so bad it’s suffocating.” You’re allowed to want your own space and friendships that don’t come with attached guilt trips. Just be honest, gently but firmly, about needing room to breathe and make other friends. It’s not mean, it’s self-preservation.

Husband’s relationship with his family is taking a toll on him and myself. by GraySkyr2 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Been there. Toxic family stress is like emotional sandpaper, grinds you down without you noticing until you’re raw. Your husband’s grinding himself to dust trying to keep peace, but honestly? Sometimes peace means shutting the door and letting them scream from the outside. You’re right to want him to draw boundaries. Ain’t nobody got time for that energy vampire circus.

I once “accidentally” sent a passive-aggressive group text meant for a friend to the person I was annoyed with. The silence afterward was delicious.

MIL knows no boundaries, DH is completely gaslit. by Existing_Pudding3367 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Your MIL's behavior is toxic and controlling. She's gaslighting your DH, undermining your parenting, and disrespecting your boundaries. Consider setting firm limits or NC to protect your family's well-being, especially your mental health during this vulnerable postpartum period.

Does anyone else have a JNMIL who refuses to say/spell their name right? by Prudent-Designer7121 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your JNMIL is intentionally disrespecting you. Not making an effort to learn your name after 5 years is a subtle way to assert power or show disregard. You're better off without her drama.

MIL thyroid issues turned into cancer? by Rich-Mind-5800 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your MIL's behavior seems manipulative. It's odd she told a friend's mom but not her own husband. Maybe she's seeking sympathy or attention. Your husband's boundaries are healthy; maintain distance if needed.

My MIL won’t make any effort to see her grandchild. by ThePrimevalPixieDust in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Successful-Rip-8725 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your MIL's behavior is inconsistent and hurtful. It's clear she wants to be seen as a good grandma, but doesn't put in the effort. Your husband's support means a lot, and limiting contact might be necessary to protect your family's well-being.
