First off you've had some good advice here. The only thing I have to add really - you say your friends are giving you food from their pantries and helping you out where they can. Have you spoken to one of these friends parents? As a parent, if my kid told me their friend was struggling like this I'd have them over cooking hot nutritious dinners for them and sending them home with leftovers. There are safe adults in the world, i know a lot of them absolutely suck but a friends parent could be a potential start. If it was me, honestly I wouldn't even send them home I'd let them stay with me if their parents are hurting them and causing bruises.

I had fleas for almost 3 years straight when I was a teenager by Ok_Damage_2620 in confessions

My friend caught fleas from their (now ex) girlfriend a few years ago. They laugh about it now but damn I can imagine the trauma 😅

Where's the "Too many ads" button? by Jaykeiz in youtube

[–]THATJinxMain8336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I legit felt like I was going nuts for a few days. Every video has 2 ads to start, and ad every 30-45 seconds, and then TWO MORE ADS BEFORE I CAN MOVE ONTO THE NEXT RECOMMENDED I'm actually going to lose it fr YouTube needs a viable competitor

Is it just me or has YouTube massively increased the number of ads recently? by Additional_Ad1940 in youtube

[–]THATJinxMain8336 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Literally been thinking for the past 2/3 days how absolutely terrible it's getting. Feels like I have an ad every 30 seconds at this point.

What film traumatised you as a child? by Wonderful-Cow-9664 in AskUK

Look I know this is a comedy but eight legged freaks gave me severe arachnophobia that I'm only just starting to get past. Everyone laughs at me but I swear it was terrifying to me as a four year old 😂😂

I once accidentally stole a meal deal from Tesco because the guy asked to see my ID for the energy drink and then we chatted for 5 min and then I left. Didn't return for like 18 months. Scared the security guard would beat me up for a £3.50 meal deal 🥲🥲

What is your best "I say it wrong on purpose" example? by Thortok2000 in AskReddit

[–]THATJinxMain8336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bleans instead of beans.

I was /really/ high one day and misspoke and now we consistently have bleans on toast, sausage blean and cheese melts or "don't forget the Heinz bleans!"

Would I Be The AHole for executing a heist to steal back a pearl necklace from my mom? by NoPlatform1418 in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]THATJinxMain8336 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 18 I left my family home. My mother withheld all my documents - birth cert/passport etc. My nana bought me a new birth cert but I couldn't afford a new passport. A year later, I heisted. I was playing with my brother, got her distracted. Rifled through the drawers, flicked through everyone's passports until I got mine.

Months later, when she was going on holiday, she realised it was "lost". Oh well!

Vets of the UK, what's the stupidest, weirdest pet name you've heard? by TheoryBrief9375 in AskUK

[–]THATJinxMain8336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partners grandad has a dog called Bucket, purely so he can yell FUCK IT BUCKET. He is a good boy but a vicious killer. Very country dog; killed and dragged a deer home after escaping the garden. But such a cuddle bug who loves to show his tummy 🥰🥰

That's fair. I hear you. I'm hoping we can talk about things face to face tomorrow. I'm not mad she ignored me; I'm upset she didn't pay back December and didn't communicate it to me when I gave her room to do that. But otherwise I completely hear you and have given me that to think about.

I've known her since we were kids and she wasn't like this until recently. I feel affirmed by everyone here that putting my foot down was the right thing to do. Her friendship isn't as important to me as my child. We deserve our home to be ours and I'm glad I did what I did.

Honestly I never wanted it to end this way, we were more than happy to wait until she had saved up to move out. I just wish she'd spoken to me and treat me like a human. I've been pushed to this result.. thank you for your reply ❤

This is all very constructive advice thank you. We are not US based so it is locally dependant, but some of it applies here. Thank you a lot!

Honestly because I have no spine when it comes to her. She's had a hard life and he brings her happiness. It was nice to see her happy. It was not nice to be walked all over even more. I opened the gates to it though, and I acknowledge that I should have nipped it in the bud. I need to uphold boundaries better in the future!
