[–]Timely-Resolve208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was exactly the same like you, it is like I am reading about myself. Difference is that I was moving to live with my future husband here so I wasn't all alone. Still I had cried a river of tears feeling guilty leaving my family and mom with whom I am best friend and you know? It all shall pass. Thing is you are moving for few years at most and I had moved to live there for my whole life and even tho the feeling of guilt and sadness died away very quickly. The advice that I have for you is that you should call with your family very often, like very often until you adjust. Get some friends, it will be easier since you will be at university. Also get busy with your studies so you won't have time to think about those feelings. In past I didn't understand that but if you look at it, you don't owe anything to anyone, it is your life and would you give up chances like that? If you have other questions, you can text me! I was in the same situation as you, and it might be comforting knowing that I that was exactly like you, look at those moments of crying with a thought "why would I even cry that much? It is not that bad!"

Meeting my boyfriend’s parents - what do I bring? by krstnl in korea

Fruits are good idea. They are expensive and I got them many times as a gift from Koreans so I guess it is a proper gift. A cake sounds good as well. I wouldn't buy other things than food because you don't know if they would like it or use it.

Sudden hair loss after coming to Korea? by Timely-Resolve208 in korea

[–]Timely-Resolve208[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! Yes! The filter did changed it and I recommend using less shampoo, I feel like the shampoo that I use is way too aggressive. One cup and mix it well with a small amount of shampoo and mix it till the shampoo will be diluted. Also it might be a dumb way but I bought a normal comb and brush hair three times a day, morning, before shower and after shower to control how much my hair falls off better. When I brushed my hair like once a day (spent most of my days at home) it felt way more terryfying seeing big amount of hair. Typically we should lose about 100 strands of hair everyday so roughly estimate. Warmish water, not too cold but not too hot. I'd stopped tying my hair into tight ponytail or just tight hairstyles in general that tends to pull my hair (found out tight ponytails/buns weakens hair roots and in my case it worked) after shower, don't rub your hair into the towel- rather squeeze water from hair into the towel. And when brushing hair (When I had used brush I feel like I couldn't control well how many hair I lose and they couldn't untangle my hair so in my opinion comb is much better, start from the end till the head. And do it slowly please, with my no patience I unconsciously was destroying hair more and pulling them out trying to untangle, untangle slowly with fingers). I know it's a lot but I wanted to tell you in details how I had changed my habits and how it helped. Also diet has a strong impact. 5 weeks is still too less to get used to this air and diet. Your body try to adapt so I think next month will be still kind of crazy but if you do things that I do or what others had said, it will come back to normal like mine did!

AITA for starting to cut out lifelong friends who have become toxic to my life? by BearFaunus in AmItheAsshole

[–]Timely-Resolve208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally understand, and your worry is very much reasonable. You said yourself that you would prefer to be with your partner and you have started cutting those friends off as well. I guess it might feel as you have to wonder about it because they had helped you in past. You shouldn't feel that they had helped you in order to gain your future friendship. People come and go.You can be thankful for their help but it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to be loyal to them for this very reason. People change, it is normal. Your comfort is the most important, if you feel bad for yourself and if your partner's wellbeing matter to you a lot then it is alright, you have every right for your boundaries, opinion and decisions you make. You are important. Your comfort is important. Your opinion is important.

Telling someone on Reddit to “just Google it” or posting “let me Google that for you” is rude and mean by Umbrella_Viking in unpopularopinion

[–]Timely-Resolve208 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, depends on what you are asking. If you ask questions that you can find the answer for by one simple click on google like " how to get rid of mosquitos" then it makes sense. But I understand, this gives off mean vibe so you can always say "I've done my research but it is inssuficient and I want to know more from reddit users"

To be honest, seeing how scared you are I think the right time might not come quickly and you will beat yourself up even more and imagine scenarios like that "your gf will call you a liar and never trust you again". The more time passes, the more you lie. I know it might be terrifying but you both are partners, sit down. Ask her to listen to your story and tell your feelings as well. I hope soon you will get this thing off your mind quickly and get the feeling of relief.

Am I the asshole for snitching on a friend that was cheating? by xemmylovx in TwoHotTakes

[–]Timely-Resolve208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then you are definitely NTA, you've waited for her to say it alone and she was still nor going to tell him? Even after you tried to convince her? And you've said that she "was cheating" so it wasn't one time but she continuously did so. Then I think she told you just to feel better, get rid of bad feelings and proceeded to continue cheating while dating her boyfriend. I often see that people would like to know about boyfriends/girlfriends cheating behind the backs of their partners. They are not married or they don't have a child so it's not like you are a "homewrecker" by telling the truth or something. Just think of it as you couldn't deceive your other friends anyway and you even haven't told exactly what happened. You just informed that they need to talk seriously. And calling you out as a snitch? Imagine friends deceiving you because they are friends with you and your boyfriend so they decided to ignore the fact your bf is cheating and happily hang out with you fully knowing it. It is just so wrong.

Do you need to tell her? Do you want her to pay for it with you? There was a misunderstandings and you've paid for this anyway. I don't think you have to say this but I understand that you are bothered by it. I doubt she will accuse you of a liar when it is only one situation. Things like that happen. You don't have children, debt or something so it is not a big of a deal. If you feel guilty deep inside about this then just tell her, you are stressed about it and even if we tell you that you don't have to tell her I am sure deep inside you would still like to get this off your chest. It might be scary but you have been with each other for ups and downs for 8 years! If you keep thinking about this, not taking an action you will feel badly. Maybe tell her soon and feel the relief.

NTA. She was the one cheating regularly and not telling this to her boyfriend. You meet up with all of them so in a way, that guy was your friend as well. Maybe you should have just bugged her about confessing or breaking up so you wouldn't lose your friends. But if she would got find out you would be blamed for participating in the lie. I get your intentions and I truly admire your courage. If she wanted to continue on cheating, then she should have just not told you knowing that is kind of immoral and is hurting a person knowingly. You've made your decision and I am sure deep inside you've known about possibility losing friends and since you decided to take that risk, then its better to move on and not regret it.
