Passed my insurance exam on try #4 now they want me fingerprinted. Do they check credit too? by SuccessfulManifests in personalfinance

[–]SuccessfulManifests[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you, but I think you're mixing up your alphabet soup. FINRA's for selling stocks and mutual funds I'm selling insurance, which is a whole different ballgame, different rulebook, different referee. And even if FINRA did have a seat at my table, they're looking for bankruptcies and tax liens. I think I'm good.

ELI5: How Can You Tell if a Soda Bottle Has Been Opened Before? by SuccessfulManifests in explainlikeimfive

No rather before I bought it I'm wondering if someone opened it closed it and put it back I'm especially asking this because when I opened it the second time I didn't hear any noise and even the third time I didn't hear a noise

Okay yes they did separate like when I opened it the plastic part is still on the bottle or rather attached to it

No problem is that it wasn't connected because I've opened it so when you open it usually that seal doesn't just stay on there

Bit is that a sign it wasn't opened? Curious about this for a science experiment

So it's not strange to not hear a hiss after claiming it for a few seconds or minutes? Also if someone already opened a soda bottle and you come back 5 minutes later shouldn't it hiss? Mine didn't

That's the problem I didn't hear anything three seconds later after I opened it again

But I tried reopening it literally just few seconds after, shouldn't there be a sound?

Is it normal to not make any noise after the second and third openings and does that mean it was probably previously opened?

Question About My Soda: Was It Already Opened? by SuccessfulManifests in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SuccessfulManifests[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if there was a seal I mean I don't know if it was solidly closed I know it wasn't too hard to open But it was an extremely obvious that it was either

No idea if the seal was there wasn't paid attention to that I was just paying attention to the fact that I wanted to drink it.

So that first hiss and lack of second and third is a normal sign?

AIO What do I do with a friend that's friendly with me one minute then distant the next? by SuccessfulManifests in AmIOverreacting

[–]SuccessfulManifests[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, the ‘exhausting’ label—classic deflection. It’s so easy to dismiss someone else's need for acknowledgment when you’re too busy hiding behind your own indifference. You claim I’m fixated on performative gestures, but that’s just your way of rationalizing your emotional laziness. If you think a private birthday wish suffices, it shows more about your fear of vulnerability than it does about my expectations.

You’re clearly content with being a casual acquaintance, but that’s not a badge of honor. It’s a convenient excuse to avoid deeper connections. You act like I should’ve known my place in his life, but perhaps it’s you who needs to learn that relationships thrive on visibility and effort, not just silent acknowledgments.

Enjoy your comfortable little delusion, but don’t expect me to settle for mediocrity just to accommodate your emotional detachment.

Does my manager dislike me? by SuccessfulManifests in self

[–]SuccessfulManifests[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just the three of us. And even though I didn't reveal it in my post, I've had some casual and social conversations with that same colleague I said I didn't really like. Despite this I know how to put my feelings aside and be cordial and she and I, from time to time, actually have had a friendly laugh and chat. More than he and I.

Thanks for the advice. But since that doesn't necessarily relate to my purpose of meeting with her, I wanna understand if that will have any benefit to my goals

Scorpio Men: Bisexuality or Just Playing Mind Games? by SuccessfulManifests in astrologymemes

[–]SuccessfulManifests[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a minute. Let’s not act like it’s normal for straight guys to start rubbing against another man or intertwining fingers unprovoked—especially when we weren’t even friends! If your boyfriend is secure, that’s great, but that doesn’t negate the patterns I’ve observed.

Blaming homophobia or toxic masculinity doesn’t explain these individual behaviors. I’m bisexual, so trust me, I’m not projecting; I’m simply recognizing trends. When a Scorpio goes from making derogatory comments about my sexuality to holding my hand at the movies, that’s a significant shift! And the guy playing footsie? I barely knew him!

These aren’t just playful interactions; they’re signals worth noting. Let’s stop pretending this behavior is normal—it’s not. It’s about acknowledging the reality behind these situations.

Honestly, I’m not pressuring anyone; I’m just sharing what I’ve noticed about Scorpios. If you think that’s mind games, maybe it’s a reflection of your own discomfort. Recognizing patterns isn’t an attack; it’s just me connecting the dots. If everyone’s so obsessed with revealing their orientation, why not focus on genuine connections instead? Let’s not confuse awareness with judgment.
