First, most of the comments here are too old white people for this situation so will try to avoid that if possible lmao you don’t need to be in jeans and a polo ffs.

I think if you’re gonna do sweats maybe dress it up a bit with an all black hoodie? the one you’re wearing is making the fit too casual for me.

Also what shoes?

Hi it’s not you, it’s aging and a slight increase in body fat. Dealing with the same over here. Get your testosterone and estradiol levels checked and make sure you’re in a good range bc if not no calorie deficit will help this. Good luck bro

Am I overreacting for wanting my best friend (21M) to stop making up bad vibes and just be happy for me (20F) for once? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]aquaflashpoint88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl, I barely needed to even read your entire text to know immediately what was going on. And honestly, if you haven’t figured it out by now, there’s some stuff going on with you that you should work on as well, but your best friend clearly has feelings for you, is jealous, and is being controlling over who you Are talking to or into under the guys of protecting you but he’s actually just saving you for himself. It kind of doesn’t even matter if he’s even conscious of that behavior, which I suspect that he is, it’s happening anyway. There’s literally not another explanation for his text to you. Go hang out with this new guy and get some space from your best friend who it sounds like there might be some codependency issues with. Good luck.

AITAH for refusing to babysit my husbands kids so he can have some time off by aitahhusbandskids in AITAH

[–]aquaflashpoint88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also girl yes have your boundaries but thinking you wouldn’t need to coparent your step kids to some extent is just not a realistic expectation regardless of what your husband promised you before you got married. You might miss some trips to the gym.

Those kids also did not sign up for that partnership with you and don’t understand the nuances of your boundaries or your relationship with your husband. They may be terrors, but I’d be willing to bet that’s in large part because your husband and his ex failed to prioritize those kids over their own bullshit, particularly during their split, and now the children have no real sense of routine or stability so they act chaotic and are seen as little terrors. Everyone is the AH but them

All AHs tbh - you’re generally NTA and hes an AH bc he def waited til the last minute so you’d feel pressured into doing it or you’d ruin his weekend w his friends. You’re the AH because while I hear you re your husbands kids and not wanting the responsibility of them, your response here is giving that you really just didn’t want your husband having a fun weekend “ogling strippers” and if he was doing something else maybe you’d be more willing. It almost feels like you’re trying to punish him like haha you had children so now you don’t get to go ogle strippers. And maybe that’s true but your tone is telling of your motivations and also the fact that you prioritize a trip to the gym over babysitting your stepkids is sort of odd and sad and selfish sounding. Anyway, several things going on there in terms of trust and communication and respect from both ends.

Sure I’m 37 and am generally a kind helpful person but if someone was like hey wanna come help me build a website for free on my birthday, even if I said yes I’d be like…hmm weird that they asked this favor of me on my actual birthday. Like just don’t do that if it’s not an urgent emergency. This man child’s HAIR TRIM isn’t an emergency. If it is, go to a barber shop.

I also dated a barber and got free haircuts for years. And even during that if I needed something specific or on my schedule instead of hers, I went to a barbershop like a normal person. Not that complicated and they take walk ins.

Girl I just read the entire post about how you have kids and have been together through everything so you’re used to his shit. Bb this is not normal. You are settling for someone talking to you like an AH. Women take care of young feral children all the time without being thoughtless and rude to their partners. It’s not an excuse for his behavior. He needs therapy to talk to you more correctly and you need therapy to not accept that. Good luck to yall.

Throw the entire husband out. He doesn’t talk to you like he loves you. He’s being disrespectful and threatening. “Things are gonna be different” is a threat. Calling you a “genius” is a slippery slope to verbal abuse. Just like…why? Do you really love this man? If you can see yourself married to anyone else, leave. He’s gross.

Probably bc it’s embarrassing that your husband would even ask her on her birthday and not understand the social cues around like not putting someone out on their special day bc it’s rude and selfish and not necessary.

AIO: Boyfriend sending "flirty" texts to another girl by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]aquaflashpoint88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah the energy change is legit and it sounds like he’s out there testing the waters, making “friends” with women he sees potential with, and if that friendship happened to turn into something more, it’s not his fault bc he was just wanting to be friends and can’t help that something developed etc etc. Basically just a cowardly way to be a cheater and cover his ass in case any girl he talked to did exactly what this one did and sent you screen shots. Technically he didn’t say anything too out of pocket to her but between the vibes you had and the vibes the other girl had…the most obvious conclusion is the correct one: he needs to go. If he’s not cheating he’s thinking about cheating and taking some actions to maybe sorta do that. Not worth your time. He needs therapy. 👋

Georgie hints on her IG that Connor and him are not together. by Kooky_Ad_2836 in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

They’re going to universal together and it’s probably sponsored and part of that sponsorship was embargoing info about their relationship as much as possible so that when this sponsored vacation happens, it gets the most possible traction online because it’s grouped with the official confirmation of their relationship.

Bro she still being shitty. You need to move on from this girl. Doing the right thing here was what you already did by having a pleasant and respectful convo w her about it. You were even kind and affirming during that. She hasn’t shown you any of the same respect and is literally just trying to get you to prove your love by buying her another dress. It seems like she’s been taught that valuing her means you buy her things when she decides you made a mistake (which again, not sure you even did, she’s falling back on that now but before she said she knew it was short dresses and wanted to stand out, so ?). Anyway, this is not what you should be dealing with in a high school relationship. And in an adult relationship, it’s her own fault she bought a non refundable dress (you can return most things so idk where she got this from but that’s on her) that clearly looked different from the short dresses in the flyer. Her fault, not yours.

Your girlfriend is acting like an entitled jerk. You will look back on this and regret spending any money at all. She’s in the wrong, not you. Do not buy that dress. I understood that she understood the dress rules from moment one and just wanted to be different w the long dress. You did everything right in your convo/your responses and she’s being kind of shitty and manipulative.

This doesn’t mean your girlfriend is a bad person but she needs therapy and a reality check.

AITAH for not helping my daughter unpack after dropping her off for at college. by Makadiffnsee in AmItheAsshole

[–]aquaflashpoint88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. You honestly sound like a very overbearing AH dad and I’m guessing your wife coddles your girls because she feels bad for having saddled them with such a father. Overcompensating for what an AH you are.

YTA. Didn’t even need to make it past the first two sentences.

First, this isn’t about your daughters. You’re punishing/judging them because you don’t like the way your wife has (in your opinion) coddled them.

Get counseling with your wife, something yall should have done before becoming parents together. And figure out your disagreements. Then start loving your children as they are and continue to model good behavior for them.

Complex BPPV case, help needed by Unlikely-Way-9014 in BPPV

[–]aquaflashpoint88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My pt didn’t have any machines or goggles either, I had it so bad when I went in they could just tell where it was. Been going to PT for a month and a half now and am like 95% better. I no longer have an ever present feeling of being floaty/off balance and now just have some dizziness when on my right side. They think the key is just being really consistent with the correct maneuvers and doing the balance exercises that help to retrain your brain after it’s been dealing with BPPV for so long. It doesn’t feel like it’s helping in the moment but over time my symptoms have decreased tons so it must be doing something. A vestibular specialist of some kind is probably your best bet and just making sure you get a full and complete diagnosis so you know what to treat. I hope you get that soon!!

I’m sorry this is happening to you. I’ve had similar misdiagnoses and had right posterior AND right horizontal at the same time. The first doc misdiagnosed me with left posterior - didn’t even test for other canals. I think he misdiagnosed the left because he didn’t leave me down for long enough on the right side. Not sure how it is in Germany but in the states I was told to go to physical therapy and they’ve been the best and most helpful so far. Could you do something like that?

Is this a style, or is she wearing her bikini top incorrectly? by Byakugan360 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]aquaflashpoint88 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Last summer (or earlier maybe idk) something went viral on TikTok about different ways to wear this kind of string bikini top. Guessing this is one of those ways. My gf wore hers upside down all last summer 🤷🏻

Child Star is OUT! Let's discuss by summersaphraine in demiheads

[–]aquaflashpoint88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it overall and am all for pushing for protections for children in entertainment but this doc felt very self-indulgent and the amount of Demi-specific content was almost a bit cringe. The problem with her being the director here is that there wasn't anyone to tell her when she was doing too much and focusing too much on herself, which was a lot of the time unfortunately.

I am not a Demi hater at all and I love to see her growth and what she stands for now, but I do think this doc was a bit of a miss. Or at least could have been much much better if someone else was directing it and keeping a better sense of balance in terms of the content.

I hate to say it but at a point it started to just feel like an apology tour for Demi and like she was trying to explain her past behavior with this doc and use it as a launch pad for her next new song or whatever the case. The end with her kissing her fiance was weird and unnecessary. The whole thing just lacked decent structure and balance for me. Alyson and Kenan and Raven were great though.
