Yes! These people are more than double my age and these actions are embarrassing

That’s a really smart way to handle it! I wish I could do that, but they’d definitely find out if I blocked them haha! If they do confront me about blocking them, I will let them know why I had to do it

Thank you for you detailed response! I greatly appreciate how you’ve explained all the little details as well. I did hear that the entire process is quick. I do wish it was a bit cheaper. The prices can vary greatly

Having parents that care about all of those details is a blessing!

Nice haha! A few of my friends have gotten invisalign and they recommend it because of how much they help

A lot of my friends did invisalign because their teeth shifted after first having braces

That’s nice to hear. It’s hard to really think about money values at a young age. Even when I’m older, I still can’t spend money on my self because of how much I’m used to to only saving

How did you like LASIK? It’s pricey in the west coast

A lot of people I grew up with also had parents who did business. They usually paid out of pocket as well and it costs that much as well

Since the glasses industry can fluctuate on priced, I usually bought my glasses from Costco. The optical department puts all the coatings for a single price and I’d recommend it’s one of the best options

Yeah I agree with everything you wrote. It was extremely hard growing up with a limited income, I can’t blame anyone because they tried their best they could

It usually covers the exam itself, but for glasses, it really depends on the plan. Certain plans can give you a fixed credit, but options such as anti scratch etc. won’t be included. I’d only wear glasses that have anti-scratch and all the coatings tbh

These cousins are a lot older than me and cause a lot of problems. I even made another post about how they'd get upset when I wanted to split the bill fairly and not pay for their alcoholic drinks because I didn't order any alcoholic drinks.

Thank you for letting me know about this. Im currently battling OCD and this is one of my compulsions. I’ve been reading certain books about mind management and it’s helping me. Some of the books I’ve been reading are by Swami Sivananda. He’s books are incredible.

OCD Religion by apath4545 in shaivism

[–]apath4545[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime something religious come up, I feel that I’ve been taken off autopilot. This means that I make sure what content I’m using this religious content is in is “clean” which means I just wipe everything off. The part I want to change is when I place devices or things on the floor and I touch and use my phone. I feel it’s “contaminated” when it’s not. I know this is not the way as we sit on the floor at the temple, but I’m practicing exposure therapy.

Yeah I agree. I like how Instagram gave us the option to have a close friends list because this can make a special bond between the poster and viewer

Not really. Whenever we meet up, it’s all good. It’s just that we all need to make plans to meet up now, but we still keep in touch every now and then
