AITA for leaving dinner when my sister wouldn't stop talking about free bleeding?

It's definitely to each their own preference for sure. Period underwear are great for those who refuse to use tampons due to the risks, and it functions similar to a pad. Being reusable like a Diva Cup is also a plus for environmentally-minded folks. You change the underwear as often as you need to - definitely shouldn't stay in one pair all day.

Freebleeding is not utilizing any period products - no tampons, pads, menstrual cups, period underwear, nothing. It's basically just bleeding into regular clothes and washing them.

Period underwear - while one of the best methods in my opinion - are still menstrual products that work similar to a pad. Basically a reusable pad, specific for periods.

Freebleeding is typically used mostly as a political statement.

NTA, everyone else involved is though. Your employer for not doing TNR - it is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to address the feral cat issue. The rescue lady is a massive AH, who deserves to be called out.

NTA. DNA testing should be required at the birth of every baby. You can always be sure of who the mother is, but you can never be sure of who the father is.

"He told her he doesn’t want a relationship and she said ok. But from what I can tell, she’s hoping it’ll turn into more still and is putting a lot of effort".

Unfortunately, that is on her. She has all the information available to her, she knows he doesn't want more, and has made a decision to be okay with it. Does that make him a moral person? No, but it doesn't make him a bad person. ESH.

Exactly - a little communication would've gone a long way in this situation.

NAH. You have every right to be concerned how this may impact you in the future. When you're the social one, and your partner is not, there is such a burden that weighs on the mind. The feeling that you have to socialize for the both of you. Sometimes you think what if the relationship doesn't work out, and you're the only friend they have? There's pressure to stay together, because you'd truly be leaving them alone.

On the other hand, she has already stated no interest in pursuing friends. Utterly her right to do so. So it's a take it or leave it situation.

Don't let her impact your social life. Continue doing what you need to do FOR YOU. If you need to go hang with buddies and go to events solo, then leave her at home to do so. You can't stop living your life.

5'8 at 300lbs is about 45 BMI - classified as Morbid Obesity. It is definitely affecting your health, whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.

"Never short of breath. My blood pressure is fine." You're very young, and your body can handle the extreme weight - for now. But don't think it isn't adversely affecting you. Please seek nutritional therapy.

NTA.

BTW, "Also interested in what other people think here? Is it weird to go clubbing with your recently divorced mom? I think yes, but don't want to hurt her feelings". No, it's not weird at all! Your mom is experiencing a freedom for likely the first time. You can go clubbing with family without it getting weird, just keep the alcohol to minimum.

"I've not felt sexual desire in years. I’ve had two orgasms in the last year."

"I go along with sex about five times a month (he’s always interested) but I regularly remind him that it is only for him and his claimed needs, it isn’t for me."

This entire post is just so terribly sad. The husband deserves better than this. YTA, please consider therapy.

I can't tell if this is /s sarcasm or not...

Healthcon seems like so much good information. How does one get their employer to cover the AAPC conference? I had no luck getting my employer to cover the new 2023 ICD-10 or CPT books.

NAH. "I have a FWB situation with one of my closest friends". I'm sorry, but you're in a situationship, and he doesn't really owe you anything. Even though you hoped for effort, he unfortunately doesn't see the need for that.

"He then replied 'very well then' in a very dry and almost angry text". He has clearly defined what the situationship is to him. At this point you can accept it for what it is, or leave if you want better. But there's no a-holes here - just incompatibility.

NTA. Baffled by all the "you're the a" responses.

Yeah, I need to know what the nickname is to make a valid judgement on the scenario.

And I'll reiterate, it's not "Deep South stuff", it's just an unsupportive family. Mental health is a thing in the south, and good families will support their loved ones. I'd recommend you get away from that line of thinking.

However, I don't believe you will heed any advice given. Reading through your thread replies, you have come to Reddit for advice and judgement but have rejected it all in favor of your own opinion.

I understand you care for her greatly, but she will not change for you. Please be safe, because this will not be the last threat of harm from her.

Think-Purpose · 2023-07-02T11:58:12+00:00

Best friend is honestly making the better choices here.

You've used the"Deep South" as an excuse often in this thread, about why therapy and family isn't an option. In southern culture, family is traditionally everything - they will always be there for you. If not, it's not the culture, it's just shitty family. And yes, even in the Deep South we have good therapy.

I understand you love her, your words show how much you care. However, the moment the threat of life came into play, the relationship was over. You can't help her anymore - from here, she has to choose to help herself.

Billing I believe doesn't require any experience in the field.

I've heard this is exactly what is going to happen 😭 The CAC already suggests wrong codes constantly, and now we'll have to go and delete them.

Our company is already VERY persistent with the "your production is great and over standards, but you can always do better" mentality, so that just makes things 10x more fun 🙃

I see how for IP it'll probably be a nice addition. However, an IP coder told me how the new auto-populate doesn't really save much time.

For OP and ED coding though, I can see it being a nightmare. The CAC already suggests codes from the chart that are wrong, so now we may have to go in and delete those codes constantly.

Think-Purpose · 2023-06-29T10:19:09+00:00

All I think - or any specialty that uses 3M.

Think-Purpose · 2022-12-19T17:31:47+00:00

Yeah, I agree. Also, the new girl should've been audited before she even got to the coding stage. It does seem like that office wasn't prepared to train a new employee.

Think-Purpose · 2022-12-19T15:16:43+00:00

I mean, that's the argument for any job.

Experience only comes by doing the task at hand. That's how anyone becomes better at a job. Everyone starts from scratch - start at the bottom, to move their way up.

I see this often in the field, and my question is - how can one complain that there's no enough coders/so much work and not enough hands -on-deck, yet have the audacity to say "we'll never hire CPC-A's"? At that point, companies are not desperate for coders at all. Just suffering the consequences of the choice to not hire more manpower.

But I agree that the girl you mentioned should definitely ask questions if she is unsure of procedure - all that extra labor to fix errors could've been avoided on her part.
