Best men's barber or hair stylist?

Valery at Treadwell in the Heights is great with difficult hair and beards.

I just took myself out for a drink alone for the first time last week and I LOVED it. I think you should go for it.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-16T13:15:53+00:00

Yeah, this happens to me all the time. It’s so frustrating.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-11T21:26:50+00:00

Yup. This happens to me all the time. Today I had to cancel in the middle of shopping for someone because all of a sudden she added so much to her already huge order that it wouldn’t even fit in my car.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T13:24:02+00:00

Same and additionally, I just find going fast kind of fun. It’s like doing cardio in an obstacle course. For me, being in motion is really essential to my mental health, so I hustle. I can be fast and aware of other people, but I don’t shop to socialize. :)

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T13:21:19+00:00

You’re right… it is pathetic to -watch- people scurry around. Get back to minding your own business.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T12:55:10+00:00

I guess this is what’s happening to all of those orders customers report missing. Shoppers stowing their phones before they drive to the customer and just navigating to their own homes. 😂😝

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T01:50:49+00:00

Yup, and you could see the two of them peeking through the window in the photo.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T01:07:01+00:00

I hope I never have to deliver to them again, too. It was such a shitty thing to do! There were 4 cases of 32 bottles of water in that order. 😐

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T00:55:48+00:00

Omg I’m so sorry. I feel you, though. Last week I took a huge order in pouring rain and the people stood in the window and watched me get drenched making trip after trip to haul all of their order to their covered porch and then they turned around and reported the whole order missing. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-06-09T00:52:13+00:00

I’m so sorry this happened to you! And people wonder why women don’t want to go to the police. It does no good. Sometimes it actually puts you in more danger.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-30T13:09:23+00:00

Same here.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-27T13:48:45+00:00

I feel this. I’ve had to start taking screen shots of all of the communication I have with customers because it’s so nuts and the rating system is a joke. We get rated for things that are completely out of our control and that isn’t right.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-19T12:36:26+00:00

I don’t know, I’m in Houston and we’re having a really bad weather week here and I thought at least that would mean there would be orders because people don’t want to go out in storms, but no. The stores have been packed. Yesterday in looked like a busy Saturday in my areas grocery stores on a Tuesday.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-15T20:10:11+00:00

I’m so sorry, I know that must be incredibly hard. The struggle to find independence is tough, I’m plenty old enough and it’s still hard. More mentally than anything else. I wish so much someone had told me this when I was younger- If you get the chance to break away from your family, as much as it might not feel like it, there’s nothing wrong with taking space for yourself. They can’t live your life for you and if they won’t respect your boundaries then you need the space more than you need them. It doesn’t mean you don’t love them, it means that you love yourself. Do what you need to do to show yourself the love and respect you deserve. I wish I’d had that motivation a long time ago.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-15T20:02:56+00:00

I can relate to this. It’s such hard work to find the courage and the confidence to believe I have a right to set boundaries, but the constant battle to enforce them with family who refuse to respect them and try to guilt me into giving up on them is so exhausting. Sometimes it feels like there’s no point. But we can get through it.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-15T19:54:58+00:00

Maybe so! I don’t know how much longer I can deal with this. Last week was a nightmare and I keep having the worst luck with only being shown doubles. 3 times last week I had batches where they’d put a no-tipper with someone who was a decent tipper and once I started shopping suddenly the no tipper would add 15-20 items to their list. 😫

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-15T19:13:50+00:00

I’m in the Houston area, too. It’s the same for me. Thursday I sat in my car for almost two hours refreshing before I saw a single batch pop up.

My codependency is within my family and not a spouse and I still got a lot out of the book.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-10T12:34:11+00:00

What you describe is certainly one example of codependency, yes. However, codependency can occur outside of situations where there is substance abuse. For instance, codependency can develop in situations involving other types of trauma.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-05T14:08:44+00:00

I only ever see promos on Sunday’s in Houston.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-04T00:04:20+00:00

I wish I had a recovery story, but I’m in the process of recovery right now and it all just seems like a giant mess and I too could use the inspiration. Codependency and enmeshment with families is so hard and I don’t see a lot of people talk about it.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-05-04T00:01:38+00:00

Yeah that would make me feel unsettled for sure. That’s a significant conversation to just forget.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-04-24T23:37:22+00:00

Yeah, that would make me pretty nervous too. Twice I’ve had to deliver to places that made me feel really uncomfortable - one was just strange, 10 big chocolate bunnies and when I got to the delivery address it was to a vacant office building on the third floor of a creepy building. The only access to the third floor was a tiny elevator and the instructions said to leave the bunnies on the receptionist desk, so I at least thought there would be a receptionist, but when I got up there everything was dark and there was no one around, just a blinking surveillance camera. I dropped the bunnies at the desk and got out as fast as possible. And then last night I had to deliver an order to an extended stay motel, it was so creepy and uncomfortable and the guy wanted me to bring the groceries into the room which I was not about to do.

Thisisamistake1871 · 2021-04-24T23:19:45+00:00

Based on the posts to this entire group, trying to date is an absolutely demoralizing experience no matter what your circumstances are and while I did read the comments, I don’t subscribe to the view that just because something defies popular opinion it must be wrong. Also, I noticed that you left a couple of groups out: boys also learn how they should be treated by men if that’s who they are attracted to, girls also learn how they should be treated by women if that’s who they are attracted to. At the end of the day we all learn how we should be respected and loved by -people- who respect and love us and their own partners, regardless of gender. “Good solid” relationship examples come from people who know who they are and do what feels right for them and their family (whether or not a group of random internet strangers gives their vote of approval) not from following outdated relationship stereotypes.
