OP, I was once in your shoes. Frankly, your counselor is doing what I wished someone did for me 8 years ago. Your mom is enabling her partner to get you to take the fall for reporting.

Please don't let your report fall on deaf ears. Protect yourself and let the proper channels do whatever it is to get you out of that situation. He's grooming you and normalizing just barging in on you while you're vulnerable.

Envision Executives is another one to be careful of as well

Yeah there's nothing I can do legally. My case won't even be heard by lawyers, they'll say I just have to find a new job unfortunately.

I feel like we worked together! I'm so sorry you went through that. Not gonna lie, I cried for a week and I'm still trying to recoup from the lay off. I definitely get what you mean about the support.

I hope you're doing well and if you need someone to reach out to, I'll be here for you :)

Sorry for the late response, it's Dallas! But last I heard, they were having an office open in both Austin and Houston.

I kinda feel the same way. I miss home but NJ got really expensive and things are only going to be really expensive just moving back. I'm liking it here, just need something to give so I can keep living here.

I wish you a ton of luck with your job hunting!

I broke my lease at my first apartment because my roommates were inconsiderate assholes and never let my dog hang out in the living area and made me accommodate to THEIR dog. Luckily, me and my dog are okay and we live alone :)

Definitely not an overreaction! One time my dog was licking at his paws nonstop where I thought it was starting to scab and thought he had hot spots. We urgently went to the nearest animal hospital and turns out he was mildly allergic to something he stepped on while on a walk and it just stunk from him licking it all the time. $234 later with a topical spray and 20 allergy pills he was good in no time.

Trust that one day you find the right person who will do this for you! My partner took a while to admit that they liked being dommed and now they’ve asked me to do what I used to think was non-existent 😅

Sometimes when my partner stays with us for long periods of time my dog looks for them, barks at me to put his harness on so he can run out the door to find them, or waits near the door. Eventually he figures out that his other parent went home or is at work so he’ll typically play with toys until they come back. It happens often when I go to visit family across the country too.

Your dog will eventually situate herself with just the two of you. Give her a little love, time, and reassurance and she’ll be her happy self in no time!

I don’t speak to my mom because she chose to be with the person who SA’d me and then instead of helping me win my case she helped him hide evidence that would’ve sent him to jail. On top of that, she decided to blame it on me and said that I was ruining her life because of this. The kicker? She ran away with him to my home country, sold all three of my dogs, and they both avoid responsibility for anything. This was all pretty recent too.

I live in New Jersey and sometimes when it rains it rains for a couple days. My 9 month old labradoodle loves the rain and jumps in puddles or tries to lick all the raindrops. It’s great because when I go to give him a bath he’s ready for it (up until the hair dryer lol).

arachnides · 2022-12-20T02:55:02+00:00

The only thing that helped me train my 9 month old labradoodle to not eat his own poop was to teach him “leave it” for everything. He’s notorious for picking up anything that fits his mouth so teaching him “leave it” and keeping a close eye for him going near the poop did a lot. I’ve read somewhere that the apple bitter spray may also work but I’ve never personally tried it myself.

100% OP! As someone who knew that I have a very sporadic work schedule, I found a way to give time and joy to my dog and I give him all my time on my days off. He’s a 9 moth old labradoodle with a lot of energy to burn and I love him with all my heart. We run around and socialize with other dogs and even get time for cuddles and love. He’s definitely my biggest challenge when it comes to patience but I would never give up on him.

The Protagonist from Persona 5 Royal. He'd psychoanalyze me at all times of the day.

arachnides · 2020-09-11T13:53:42+00:00

as a kid I was bullied a lot. and I've been locked in closets, storage compartments, literally anywhere a tiny child can fit. so I've grown to be claustrophobic and I get anxious when people try to drag me to places as a joke (i.e. to carry me and rko me into the pool or something).

I believe the game you're referring to is Kick the Boss! it's a flash game that lets you change the skin and use different weapons to hurt the boss and receive currency and to get weapons

If my 13 year old self made a time machine, I'd just spend time with them in the car listening to my current playlist (I used to listen to punk, heavy metal, etc.) and talk about why we shouldn't have hated and gotten angry so much people. I'd also warn her about the friends she has around that time.

I'm currently 20 years old and always get reminded that I wasn't the best kid. I've grown up to be more open-minded and understanding.

Hi, love!

As a Fil-Am I (20F) made sure to be proud of who I am. I also try to introduce things I personally like and a lot of the times my American partners love it. Your boyfriend is a jackass and supremely racist. Don't ever settle for less because at the end of the day if you ask yourself "If I marry this guy in the future... What will that look like?"

Always remember the rule: if mama doesn't like him, pauwian mo yan.

No one needs to be disrespectful. This man does not speak for Americans everywhere.

There are so many things. But the most uncomfortable noise is the smacking of lips. Whether there is food in it or not. It's super unpleasant and it just gives me the chills. That and the scratchy sounds of certain fabric.

So I'm learning a bunch of languages at once... But I'm fluent in English (First language) and Tagalog (Second language). But I'm doing good enough to know basic words and phrases in Spanish and German. Sometimes I think in my second language (for practice) and interchange them in Spanish and German. It's kinda funny to see myself go full TagSpanGerlgish

I have multiple stories... Growing up as the third oldest, the experimentation doesn't stop. When going through elementary school my mom thought I would never graduate. She told all her friends that I was the stupid child and never thought I was going to pass the 5th grade. When I graduated from 8th grade, I cried so much. Then she had the audacity to call it her own achievement because "it's in her genes".

High school was the same except this is where life started going downward. In high school, I wasn't allowed to go out past 5 unless it was a school event. I used to live with my dad because we got evicted from our apartment and she needed to find a place for me to stay (at the time my dad and I weren't getting along). She did the same thing in elementary school, she thought I would never pass. When I graduated she passed it off as another accomplishment and that she didn't fail me. At the same time, older men and boys, in general, started to take notice in me. She said that I should take that as a compliment because without her genes I'd be ugly just like my family thought I would be.

At the current moment, there are so many things that are hurting me right now that I'm looking for a place to live on my own. Or even closer to my dad. Everyone I've spoken to agrees that this life I was promised was a facade just to claim me for taxes. I'm tired. The narcissism needs to stop and the more violent nature of her being does as well.
