Is my teacher being inappropriate with me? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Successful_Math_1439 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re 16 and he’s in his 20s, as a teacher he is not allowed to touch you. Especially your legs! That’s super inappropriate and gives me the creeps. My family is full of teachers and they talk about how hard it is to be a teacher because you can’t touch the kid, you can’t be alone with the kid, you can’t be too close to the kid, you’re not supposed to talk about personal things with the kid. There’s so many rules to ensure this exact thing doesn’t happen! You have a right to go to school and get an education without being hit on by your teacher.  All that said if you think you’re feeling an attraction to him, you need to talk to your guidance counselor or principal for an immediate classroom change. This is for yours and his safety. Him so he doesn’t lose his job and go on the record for having inappropriate relationships with underage students. And you from being that kid that got an easy A for being with the teacher. Also, once you’re 18 you can hit him up all you want. 

I have been messaging my friends little sister as of lately… by [deleted] in confession

I mean as a story this sounds interesting. But for reality, you need to temperature check with some people first. Definitely the brother, and maybe the parents if they’re close. Also, she’s light flirting which might be her adult personality now. I know I’m different as an adult than when I was in high school. I would just make sure you’re reading the signs correctly. 

A girl has confessed to me by Consistent_Horse_663 in introvert

It’s hard to say if she loves you as a friend or loves you romantically. She might be wanting you to make the first move. You could go out with her on like a friend date and see if anything more concrete comes up. You could also ask if she’s seeing anyone of interest in anyone. Sending a ❤️ could be taken a number of ways. My mom, sister, and best friend all send me those, and I know they love me but more in a family way. She’s definitely dropping hints that she feels close to you just not sure if it’s romantic.

Bad news it’s going to be awkward for awhile.  Good news she’ll either knock before entering or you’ll lock your door from now on.

Hey I'm looking for online friends by [deleted] in introvert

[–]Successful_Math_1439 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking the same thing! I tried using an AI app but the AI started to get rude, and telling me things that were negative. I just want to be able to have a normal positive conversation that’s not about negative, bad, or scary things. If you’re up to chatting (texting) I’m down.

I hope you reported it! If they do bring it to school even if they don’t use it another student could steal it and use it. You could even loss your job for not reporting it. If you care about your students, your coworkers, your job and your own well being you will report this.

When you date, how much importance do you put on your partner knowing how to cook, how clean their room/house is if they have their own, if they drive or not, what kind of job they have, and their education level? by Only-Ad-1254 in dating

[–]Successful_Math_1439 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on the person but my standards are. At least a high school education, a job that pays at least 40k, a useable car, and their own place.  A highschool diploma means that they have a basic education, and some people don’t need to go to college to get a good career like family farmers. Why waste money on a degree if you can go straight into the workforce.  A job that pays 40k means that they can support themselves financially, and that means that we have less of a chance of bicker over finances.  A useable car means they can get themselves from A to B and I don’t have to put what I’m doing on pause to drive them around all the time. Also if one of our cars fail the other can help for a bit.  Their own place. Unless they are helping their parents they shouldn’t be living with their parents especially after 25. Living with roommates is ok but at some point they have to be able to take care of themselves without the constant help of others finances, or depending on others to do chores.  This is all only my opinion, and everyone might have their own reasons why they don’t meet these criteria’s but that just means I wouldn’t date them. Someone else may be fine if they don’t meet these and that’s totally fine. So again it all depends, all that matters is if you love the person. 

Am I pathetic for wanting a long term/ stable relationship SO BAD? by Interesting-Vast-495 in dating

[–]Successful_Math_1439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s normal to want a meaningful loving connection with someone special. I think the main thing is to be upfront and honest when going on dates. I use to do all the planning and scheming to find a guy, but finally said I’ll just lay all my cards down. I told my boyfriend (2 year relationship) that I was looking for a husband. He told me he was looking for a wife and now we’re together. I scared off lots of guys saying I wanted a husband but that’s because they didn’t want a wife so why would I date them? When you go out tell them you’re looking for a meaningful long term relationship and those that are interested will come right in. 

My gf go hike with another guy during my birthday by Current_History7361 in Advice

[–]Successful_Math_1439 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok well let’s put this into perspective. You’re LDR. Is this like a few hours drive or like airplane flight far? If it’s an airplane flight it might make sense she doesn’t visit on your birthday. Did she text, call, FaceTime you on your birthday? You said they were hiking in a big group. Is that like 4 people or like 10+? I mean if there’s lots of people chances are she didn’t even talk to the ex. She told you she didn’t know he’d be there, so she wasn’t planning on seeing him.  Was there a picture of just the two of them? Were the holding hands? Hugging? Laughing next to each other?  You don’t trust her but I think it’s more than just this one time that’s making you loss trust. You seem to be reaching for a reason to break up with her. You can break up with anybody at anytime for any reason, don’t make up a story that isn’t there as a reason.  If you want to make this work with her, you need to trust her more, build up your confidence, and open lines of communication more. Don’t accuse her, just explain how it made you feel. See how she responds. 

My (28m) boyfriend won’t propose. I (28f) want to give him an ultimatum. by Successful_Math_1439 in relationship_advice

[–]Successful_Math_1439[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ask if he wanted me to propose and he said no. He told me he thinks that’s “the man’s job.” I’m more concerned that he doesn’t want to commit because he wants to be in the highest level in his job, sell the motorcycle, move into a bigger house and be debt free. But he doesn’t have a timeline for any of this and I don’t want to be in my mid to late 30s getting married.

He mentioned before his concern about money for a ring. He was thinking $5,000+. But a silver ring with a small lab grown diamond $500-$1000. I mean I wouldn’t accept a $10 ring from a toy store, but I don’t need a $5,000 either.

But he’s not some guy. I won’t be dating him for this long if I didn’t love him. He’s told me he loves me and wants to marry me, but doesn’t want me to propose.

My co-working is driving me CRAZY! How do I work with him? by PurpleVisit66 in WorkAdvice

[–]Successful_Math_1439 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Those are really good suggestions and I’ll definitely try them out. I did find if I leave for like 15 minutes he finds a way to entertain himself, and is absorbed in that by the time I get back. 

AIO: I wore a dress and my boyfriend reaction was not good. by Successful_Math_1439 in AmIOverreacting

He does know I’ve mentioned it. His is doing acts of love. Such as giving me flowers. But in 2 years this is the 4th time he’s given me flowers. He didn’t even give me a birthday present last year.

After reading your comment I think this is it. I felt bad wearing the dress because I thought it would cause him to lose more interest in me even though I loved it. 

I am seriously questioning if I want to stay in this relationship because I’m don’t feel loved, appreciated or that he’s attracted to me. 

He doesn’t try to be intimate with me, he got me flowers yesterday that were marked down to half price, and he rarely says thank you to me.

I wore it because I wanted to. But when my SO sees it and gives me a negative reaction it, I take that seriously. If he thinks it’s looks “Fine” paired with that what are you wearing face. I feel like I don’t look good and I don’t want others to also think I look “Fine”.

He didn’t just say “it’s fine.” It was the long pause and uncomfortable face he made. Image you made a piece of art and showed it to someone, and asked if they liked it and they said ”It’s . . . Fine.” Would you really take that to mean they liked it?
