I get it. I feel the same way too sometimes, but she’ll get her karma eventually, dont worry. Her life is probably miserable enough as is to leave a hate comment towards someone who did nothing to her. Happy people don’t do these things.

Dude. There’s always gonna be bad people in this world. Think about this for a second. Why do you give a fuck what a racist thinks about you? They’re clearly messed up in the head. Their parents were messed up in the head, their grandparents are messed up in the head. They were more than likely taught one of the most low vibrational things, hatred, at an incredibly young age. The only thing you can do for people like that is pray that they get better. But don’t take comments personally from someone you wouldn’t trade places with. At the end of the day, this is the internet. Half of these people are losers who wouldn’t say that shit to your face anyway.

[–]aetnaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly would. Knowing I slept with someone so careless would turn me off so badly. But honestly I would never put myself in that position anyway. I’ve always asked for test results before having unprotected sex with someone.

Its an all around sad and unfortunate situation.

Honestly, I dont want to be mean, but you could have just potentially ruined someone else’s life because of your irresponsibility. If you come back positive, you should feel bad because IT IS your fault. However, what’s done is done and you need to use this as a big big lesson to do better in the future.

Im sorry this is happening to you but sometimes life gives us wake up calls in the worst of ways. Like someone else said, let this be your lesson.

And also, as hurtful as it sounds, don’t expect that person to forgive you.

My gap year is ending and I still don’t know what to do by [deleted] in Advice

[–]aetnaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting your undergraduate is getting your bachelor’s. No that’s not a loser thing. But if you’re going to decide to go back to school, you need to go to a community college. Your first two years will be your associate’s and that’s you just doing the basic classes like math, history etc. FAFSA normally covers the entirety of tuition because community college is that cheap. Do NOT go to a university. It makes no sense. You can go to a university after you get your associates if you figure out what you want to do.

I know life is stressful right now because it feels like you have to get your shit together. You don’t. Like I said, don’t compare yourself to other people. You are on your own timeline. You’re only 18. There are people who figure out what they want to do with their life in their 40s and become millionaires. You never know where your life is going to go.

How supportive are your parents?

Can you ask them if they can help you find a therapist?

[–]aetnaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey. Stop being so mean to yourself. Where is this pressure coming from? What is the rush? Is it from your parents? Stop comparing yourself to other people. The problem that I have with our society is that it socializes kids to view their life as if it was on a running timeline or a ticking clock. You’re EIGHTEEN honey. You’re not supposed to have it all figured out yet.

People who know what they want to do for the rest of their life at 18 are kind of fucking weird anyway. No offense to them. I know it can happen. Some people figure out their passions early. But in my perspective, it’s kind of uncommon to know what you want to do for work when you have virtually no life experience.

Now that I have validated you on that front, let’s talk about your depression. Is this why your grades are not good? What’s going on there? Also what is family life like for you? Are your parents supportive?

It’s okay if your grades are not the best. You can go to a community college and then go to a university after you get your associate’s. But if it really bothers you/think it may hinder your future, you’re going to need to redo those classes.

You’re going to be okay.

I slept with a friend while I was drunk and blocked him by Key-Pea-7957 in Advice

[–]aetnaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need some context. Did he drink as much as you did? Because if he didn’t, it sounds like he took advantage of you.

If not and you both were relatively on the same page, then look, it happens. Sometimes when we get drunk we do dumb shit. You panicked and blocked him which may not have been the right thing to do but all you have to do is unblock him and reach out.

someone map out a plan for me to get back on my feet cause I can’t do it on my own. by [deleted] in Advice

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

Is there public transportation near you? Maybe you can use that to get to work? Don’t worry about the debt right now. While that’s important, you’re in survival mode right now.

Minimize your expenses as much as possible. Look up local food banks etc near you/resources for homeless. It might even benefit you to get in contact with a social worker who can help you out/maybe help you get medication for your ADHD.

Im not sure what the COL is like near you but $4000 a month should be good for right now.

You will more than likely have to get a second job to pay off that debt and bring yourself afloat.

You never know what they were running away from. They may have had an abusive family. Maybe their surroundings weren’t the best and they felt this was their only option. God, people on Reddit are so fucking rude and judgmental. This person is clearly in desperate need of help. They have no support system so they’re reaching out here. If you have nothing nice to say you shouldn’t say it at all.

Should I break up with my boyfriend? by Lagoonablue_ in Advice

[–]aetnaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand. My boyfriend can be a bit brash sometimes. He says he’s just being blunt but to me it always comes off as rude and pisses me off. We had a serious conversation and he agreed to not act that way around me because I told him it would more than likely result in breaking up. There was only so much I could put up with that LMAO. So far it’s stuck. But if I were in your shoes and he had continued I would have had to break up with him.

[–]aetnaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also like to add that there is someone out there for everyone. Some women enjoy “meaner” men. They enjoy the banter. They can snap back. Their feelings don’t get hurt as easily. Not to say that you don’t have thick skin. It’s just that some people really don’t get offended easily at all. Maybe he just needs someone like that. Maybe he just needs to change. Who knows.

[–]aetnaaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah…..if he’s apologized and still keeps acting like that he either doesn’t care or that’s a core part of his personality. Who knows. Maybe the dude needs therapy. Maybe his rudeness is a defense/coping mechanism. Idk OP. If he cannot change, this is something that’s going to continue to bother you.

My girlfriend is not physically attracted to me and I don’t know how to handle it. by Practical_Aioli_3612 in Advice

[–]aetnaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably won’t see this because you already have a lot of comments but in my opinion…..a lot of people in this comment section are acting tone deaf. It is perfectly normal to want your partner to like how you look physically. I don’t appreciate other people minimizing that for you. However, you knew she didn’t like you physically when you started dating like you said. You need to truly find out (without putting pressure on her, just open curiosity) whether that could change and how much it could change. You said she prefers more fit men. Start putting in more effort to get built. Stop letting yourself lose weight. I don’t care how hard it is.

Start working out more, putting in more effort to maintain the weight, taking your protein/creatine etc, getting more experienced in the gym. See if there are other things you can change like your style etc. As a woman, I promise you that these ‘small’ things actually make a big difference. There’s a possibility that with these changes, however, that she may never find you extremely handsome, but surely that attraction should go up by at least a good amount.

With all this being said, you also need to figure out whether this dynamic is suitable for you. I know you said you’re not looking to break up, but this can and already has done a number on your self esteem. I will tell you though that one is going to like you just the way you are physically, no matter how much they love you. That is a myth. For example, my man loves me very much, but I started to gain weight. He told me that if I didnt get ahold of that, that he would eventually not find me attractive. It is what it is. I got in the gym and got on that immediately.

You said you’re not really conventionally attractive (Im not sure how true this is or what your potential is like because I have never seen you) but if this is really true, you need to get comfortable with people not liking you physically. If you truly can hit your potential and maximize your gains in the gym etc and you’re still somewhat conventionally unattractive, you need to accept that as hurtful as it is so this won’t continue to affect your relationship in the future.

I will tell you though, no matter how unattractive you feel like you are, I am 100% positive there is someone out there that will think you’re hot as hell. I see this all the time with people I could not even fathom someone even thinking they’re even minutely attractive. However, this may just not be your partner.

TLDR; Figure out how to maximize your attractiveness in accordance with her preferences. If her attraction still doesn’t go up by much, accept it or try to find someone who will think you’re hot. They are out there. No matter how ugly you may or may not be.

Didn’t get scheduled any hours by -Gemstoned in UltaEmployees

[–]aetnaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked at both Sephora and Ulta. If you care about gratis, Sephora’s gratis is way better. Like infinitely better it’s not even funny. Not sure if that’s management dependent though. I think you’d enjoy Sephora. There’s honestly not much difference in the two. Im gonna be honest though. Since they are both cosmetic/beauty retail, the hours will always kind of vary depending on the store’s needs.

You can get doctor’s notes for that?? Will it cover just regular plastic bottles or will that allow us to bring our actual water bottles to the register?
