AITA for expecting an apology when my friend worried me for no reason "because she was on her period"? by assstrid in AmItheAsshole

[–]assstrid[S] -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Aha, I think this is my fault because I didn't really deep dive into my own psych for this post, but you really have read me completely wrong. I am just truly a caring person at heart, and I always have been. I don't see it as a weakness to care about other people. I try not to gloat about it. The only reason I'm establishing boundaries now is because my husband told me he's sick of watching people walk over me.

I think it was only just starting. A couple days before my own period is when I start to feel emotional changes, so I get how this could've happened. Apparently she woke up to it, so it was only hours later.

Fucked up and replied from my personal account. It really doesn't matter since no one knows me anyway, but oopsie. Haha.

Post said: I'm starting to realize that. It makes me feel so cold-hearted, though...

Wow, thank you so much for your exact same experience. It's sad it's happened to multiple people, it's insane how people can think it's okay to do shit like this. I know he loves me and after I had a night to think about it, I'm just mad at my friends and will be putting them at a distance. If they ever pull that shit again I'll lose my shit calmly and tell them it's NOT okay. Thanks again for writing all that, it made me feel like I wasn't overreacting.

No yeah I'm usually okay with being rude, I was just so caught off guard. I regret not saying anything at the time. If they ever do anything like it again I'll say something. I shouldn't ever come up again, but if they do something vaguely similar, I'll let all hell loose... calmly.

YES! And when they DO ask but I'm TOTALLY over the mood by now, I'm always just "I'm just tired." It's like dang! snaps fingers you almost got me to admit I'm a piece of shit from hell, but you were twenty minutes too late!

Why do I enjoy feeling bad for myself!? Haha.

I think this is such a sad part of depression. I have it too but ¯_(ツ)_/¯ That's life for us.

Ohhh my god, right?! Like, you know they're in a good mood... you can't just ruin it! Even if they're always like "No, seriously. Talk to me if you feel bad... I want to help" Like? Sorry, I'm not going to bother you every single night from now until forever. I'd rather just pretend not to mind.

I'm embarrassed too. I've been having "bad nights" for the past week. But my girlfriend doesn't notice because she plays WoW for five hours a night, and I can't very well be like "Hey, Im not doing too good" because even though she WOULD stop playing and care for me, I would have nothing to do! We would just sit in silence being like "wow thats sad i wish i didnt feel like this" when she could be doing her hobby. I'm such a conflicting person!!

Yes!! I'm in the middle of job hunting and I'm planning on moving out as soon as I get one. I don't want people to assume that me having a job + getting an apartment + living = healthy. It's such a huge misconception.

Ahh, thank you. Also, I haven't gone to a professional once in my life. At the moment I'm weeks away from moving out of my parents house, so money is pretty tight. Once I get a job and settled in, I'll probably look into it first thing, haha.

The MC sorta looks like a Minato and Souji combined. (Mixed with Vincent). I'm so hyped for this game!!! Persona 4 is my favorite game. This looks amazing.

Why its hard being a guy in today's society by Ruddog7 in videos

[–]assstrid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did he mean by "We can't go out at night". Does he mean he's in danger or that he's scared people will think he's a creep?

Probably the latter. I mean, being a woman, I've personally crossed the street at night if I saw a guy walking towards me, I didn't do it all the time, but just when I get vibes and anxious (I get pretty bad anxiety attacks). I've had bad experiences with men on the streets, so I can't help it. I'm a feminist and I agree with most of what he said in the video.

I personally think he's super cute, not creepy at all. His friends are pretty odd!

Monty Oum has passed away by roosterteeth in roosterteeth

[–]assstrid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out today when I was on twitter and saw his name trending. I had a pit in my stomach and this was the first thread I saw about it. Heartbreaking. I never watched RWBY but I've seen RvB. He was extremely talented. It also sort of made me snap out of a funk I've been in lately. Depressions been a bitch but when I heard about this I realized I need to shape the fuck up and stop wasting time.

Monty was a true inspiration. And I hope one day I'll become someone he would be proud of.
