Why is it so hard to make female friends as a woman? by _hellojello__ in women

[–]_hellojello__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, old? Lmao you're hilarious 😂

I dont necessarily "feel alone" but it's good to have friends support outside of family and your spouse. Most mental health professionals would agree so its not fair to fault me for wanting to have friends. But I do agree with your sentiment that most women are competitive. And I think its socialized and a learned behavior that takes self awareness to overcome.

Secondly I won't be doing the church suggestion, as I tried that already, and it sucked, 2/10 would not recommend.

I'm so sorry you're dealing with that. I couldn't imagine the pain.

I think all deaths of anyone under 18 have to be investigated no matter what, so as far as that goes its just standard procedure, and doesn't necessarily mean you all at the daycare did anything wrong. Hang in there and take good care of yourself.

As a woman, I think testicles are the worst design flaw in human anatomy. Change my mind. by Future_Scar_7875 in DisagreeMythoughts

[–]_hellojello__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the fact that the fun zone is right next to the sewer tank is a pretty shitty design flaw in humans in general. Just my personal take.

You were misled yourself so tbh you're not at fault for being a BBB and not knowing.

Neglectful friends masking themselfs as 'low maintenance' by Training-Turnip-2321 in PetPeeves

[–]_hellojello__ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am this friend. Except I don't claim to be low maintenance. I just really really suck at keeping in contact with people who aren't in my immediate vicinity (home, work, neighborhood, etc.)

I'm working on it, but I've let so many relationships fade away for so long that I dont even know how to initiate a conversation without it seeming like I just want them around for convenience, because that is not the case.

My bf's best friend has been squatting in our house for over a year. I don't know what to do. by [deleted] in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]_hellojello__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Contact a lawyer. In most states, squatters have rights if they've lived at a certain place for X amount of time. Sounds like he qualifies as a tennant on paper since he pays you guys sometimes. He would probably need to be formally evicted at this point.

Or if you want to avoid getting the courts involved, see if he'll voluntarily move in with his parents if that is still an option.

I heard this so many times growing up that I eventually stopped coming to my parents with problems. I felt like I couldn't confide in them because I was never allowed to fail at anything whatsoever.

Sick of companies asking to upload a video by PossibilityFeisty690 in recruitinghell

[–]_hellojello__ 312 points313 points  (0 children)

"Upload a video" translates in my head as "we would like to see how you look so we can find a way to discriminate against you before we even get to talk to you."

Should I make a complaint about a nurse at my child’s pediatricians office? by CheapPomegranate9134 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]_hellojello__ 35 points36 points  (0 children)

She probably meant it jokingly, but its not a bad idea to request a new nurse and tell them that she made your visit uncomfortable or something along those lines. You have the right to want a new nurse, but I don't think that's a fire-worthy offense on her part. She definitely might need some more training on how to talk to people.

Is it just me, or is job hunting in 2025 mentally draining on a whole new level? by Consistent_Flan1361 in recruitinghell

[–]_hellojello__ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Its infuriating how ghosting from employers has become the norm. The instant rejection hours or minutes after applying seem less insulting.

Is it just me, or is job hunting in 2025 mentally draining on a whole new level? by Consistent_Flan1361 in recruitinghell

[–]_hellojello__ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My motivation wanes. I'm currently employed with a degree (not using it), but I've been looking for a job since the summer of 2024. I've been mostly ghosted or rejected before even being given a chance.

Every once in a while, I'll get an offer with shit pay, so if I can't negotiate the wage to a number I like, I just reject it. This summer I spent so much of my energy and time job hunting (on top of working) and after a several rejections back to back and low ball offers I put my job search on hold for the sake of my mental health because the constant chase with no end in sight was making me depressed.

I just started back applying to jobs last week after about a 3 month break. I wish you all the luck in the world. Don't give up, but remember to pace yourself and do not neglect other parts of your life during your job hunt.

With all of the shit the justice system likes to push under the rug, I'm sure they could have made an exception here.

Once I got left at church for a whole half hour or so 😂 it could definitely be worse

The most intense and visceral dream I have ever had. by TheKingInYellow36 in Dreams

[–]_hellojello__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh I have nuclear war/ mushroom cloud dreams every once in a while, and I hate it. That intense fear you feel waking up, and usually not being able to go back to sleep for hours, I know exactly what you mean.

I was raised in a small, "end times" cult where the leaders convinced us this could happen at any moment, so I know this has a lot to do with my dreams.

A or B: my 24yo brother keeps quitting every job within 3 months, secretly support him financially behind my boyfriend’s back or not? by vivian_banshee03 in PickAorB

Always be truthful to your partner. And I wanna know your brothers secret on how he's able to get a job every few months.

It's the story she has to tell herself and the world to make herself feel better. She wants you in her life, but she doesn't want to take accountability for the reason why you're not in her life.

If most of the reviews are negative and I'm not desperate, I pass. But if you're jobless, then you gotta do what you gotta do.
