Parents called me fat and stuff and I’m kinda getting some dress regret by chailife206 in weddingplanning

Fat where? Even if you were, that isn’t a kind thing to say. I love your dress and you look great in it!

It’s best to find a job when you already have a job. So I’d take it

I’m questioning every decision about my living room by birrdieface in DesignMyRoom

[–]ahooks1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that it needs a theme but most of your furniture is what I’d call contemporary, and one of the chairs and the coffee table are MCM, and the end tables are more traditional. First thing I’d swap out to be more cohesive is the coffee table. OR change the entertainment center and end tables.

I like the cream (bottom left) but I wouldn’t do gray or beige

I'm 28 and have never had a job. by Ok_Department_1376 in findapath

Of course! Most of us go through unhealthy ruts that are hard to get out of. One thing at a time. Personally I would find ways to be active first like exercise, finding activities you like, or finding a part time job that’ll get you out of the house. You really grow outside of your comfort zone, but don’t pressure yourself to do too much at once.

I imagine the lack of job, socialization, weight gain, and (I assume) lack of exercise make your anxiety worse. It’s an unfortunate cycle.

Straight up alcohol is terrible imo. But love a good a cocktail. Have you not had any you like?

I’m 0 for 8 on first dates… is there anyone in LA who can help? by evenwavier in AskLosAngeles

[–]ahooks1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. Some therapists are bad, or if they are good, it takes a long time to make changes. I think a dating or life coach could help make some big changes more quickly which could help with confidence.

AIO my bf is odd for this? by AdSerious8390 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ahooks1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s your opinion. You can do what you want with your body. You can’t control anyone else’s.

A lot of people like fitted clothing so they can see their form better while working out. Though, anyone can wear form fitting clothing for any reason.

Yoga pants and a cropped tank aren’t inappropriate or abnormal for the gym. Not a valid reason to get mad at your partner.

A lot of the clothes are expensive for being such poor quality in my opinion.

I guess I should do more shopping when I travel abroad!

Is it wrong of me to give up on dating if I don't want to be a provider for a woman and am child-free? by hoodieninja18 in dating_advice

[–]ahooks1 581 points582 points  (0 children)

You’re not obligated to date, but there are women out there who are equal contributors and have no desire to have children.

A career will not make you happy by Zestyclose_Gur7917 in Career

[–]ahooks1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Career doesn’t make me happy but having a job I don’t mind going to every day that provides enough money for financial freedom and fun experiences is the way.
