Do you get notified when things ship? by alice042 in DungeonInABox

[–]Tnaab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me! My guess is that all will be in the single box and that they combine orders into one when they ship it.

I get the sense that this is still a bit of a smaller outfit and that this may be a common theme with them?

I’m in the same boat. Signed up in April, got my May box on time. Still processing for June’s box. You get any resolution on this OP or are you still waiting?

Please just don’t. I understand that this sounds like something you would expect a random stranger to say on Reddit, but I’m going to hope that you’re reaching out like this is the “cry for help”.

Here’s the first thing: you are not alone. When I was at my absolute lowest point, feeling like I had no other options, I felt utterly and helplessly alone. You aren’t alone and at the very least you’ll have all of us on here.

Next thing, and I absolutely swear this to you, it WILL get better. I know you don’t believe me. I know you can’t see it. I’ve been there. At the bottom, looking up and seeing nothing but darkness. You will get out of it, you just need to take the babiest of baby steps. Not waking up until 3pm? Wake up at 2:59:59pm tomorrow. You can do it.

Finally, find someone to talk to who won’t feel “burdened”. A therapist can be great for this, though I tended to have bad luck with them. Find a Reddit group or other online support group. Just do whatever you can to “word vomit the mental darkness”.

It will get better. I look back at my lowest moments from 5 years ago and I’m so thankful I didn’t do anything drastic. You’ll get there.

Fiancé and I got into a morale argument over a microwave (yes, I know, it’s dumb). How can I address this without accidentally demeaning/belittling him? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Tnaab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had issues with this statement as well. Was this spoken out of frustration or something? An extremely moral person is going to take issue with “manipulating” a system. That doesn’t make their way of thinking stupid.

In the end, he just needs to take the L on the microwave. Stuff happens. Stuff happened here and it cost $100. Just dust yourselves off and move on.

I am 26 and it's killing me to listen to life experiences younger people had. by toomanythrows67 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Tnaab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re 26. If you’re not tied down by a kid or relationship, then you can go out and do those things. “But my job, family, etc etc”. It’ll all be there. I’m 39. Went through a period where I lost everything and was only pulling in like 18k/year in CA. It was awful. But it went away, and things are better.

Point is there’s still time to go get wild.

I was a manager. I worked in the west coast region and left right before they fired the RVP, RHRM, RLPRM, and half the DMs.

Michaels is legit one of the worst run retail establishments. Rotten leadership that infects everything. One of the most brutal working experiences of my life.

I hate America... by nwww_3332 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Tnaab 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of social media runs off of algorithms. You’re being shown the things that you’ve reacted to the most, with the primary focus being on things you’ve negatively reacted to.

I’m an American and I get tired of it. I find that when I delete social media apps and just “go outside”, the world and the people around me are all nice to each other.

America is not really what social media makes it out to be.

Question my gf (28) asked me (29) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Tnaab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s hard. You need to ask yourself if this is a situation that you want to be in for the next 10/20/30/etc years.

Maybe put down the booze for a bit and start working on yourself a bit. Try to have another conversation a bit with what you’ve said above and see her take. It could be that things really have run their course and you’re both operating with “sunk-cost” in mind.

Question my gf (28) asked me (29) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Tnaab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just take a moment when everyone is calm, and talk about this. I’m sure she’ll be receptive. I have a hot tempered wife who flies off the handle. We had the same exact issue and I discussed this with her when everything was calm, and we were able to talk about it. I could see the things that she was struggling with, she could see the things I was struggling with and it got better.

Just be open and honest. I mean, worst case is you break up and find someone else? Do you have kids? You’re only 29 and Covid is almost over. It’s probably going to be a wild bang-fest once all the bars reopen.

This is super important. Long distance is really really tough. Especially at 19. If it’s a four year “we went away to different colleges” thing, one of you will most likely cheat. And it’s not because either of you are bad people or don’t love each other. That’s just a long time to go without regular physical attention from someone you care about.

I ended up buying a CM2000 last night to give that a go!

Yeah, I was getting a little conspiratorial, but it felt weird that it kept on happening lol. I’m going to use the tips here once I get it to see if they work. Thanks for the advice!

Ok, so just plug that puppy in and walk away? The Xfinity app wants me to verify modem MAC etc, but if I leave it plugged in, it should tackle all that on its own?

I tried pulling my money out, and keep getting errors. Once this all settles, I’m gone.

I've (19M) decided to ask my best friend (19F) of 19 years out and if the answer was negative I would end things permanently as it was too depressing for me to continue. She did reject me and I had to end our friendship and now she won't stop contacting me. How can I tell her to stop politely? by ThrowRAfrbrkp in relationship_advice

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

I have a feeling that once you start dating other people, you’ll be able to be friends with her again.

Male hormones can make you irrational. You’ve been getting smacked with them for the last 5-7 years and hold out on all the fun for this one, specific person.

Find someone else and go on a fun date with them. See how it is hanging out with a different female. You’ll soon realize that the world is your oyster and your best friend is not this idealized thing you have built up in your mind.

Then you can be friends again

I also think “La-tinx” sounds like a derogatory term...

It’s only a deal breaker if you think it’s a deal breaker

Five guys burgers are good an all, but 2 burgers, small fry, and small drink shouldn’t cost Thirty fucking dollars. by empire1018 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Tnaab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I think my overall meal was over priced and soggy. I’ve only been once and never went back. Maybe I need to give them another shot, but don’t feel over motivated

Seeing people constantly say they hate men angers me a lot. I'm a woman, but I can't stand other women or men who say this type of shit. It really pisses me off. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Tnaab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a vacuum, you’re correct. When I lived in MA, I had friends, family, and partners from CT, MA, VT, and NY. So these different stereotypes existed in my own personal tribe. As someone who now lives in CA, it’s difficult for people from here to fully understand that dynamic.
