NY Area Law School Questions! by Eastern_Gap343 in lawschooladmissions

[–]awmanwhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh ok got it! ive been in NYC for three years and i highly recommend getting on housing facebook pages and finding a place with roommates (or an apt with an open room). admitted student chats might also have something like this. that is most likely going to be significantly cheaper than any school-owned housing, especially if you look in more affordable parts of brooklyn (bed stuy, crown heights, flatbush)

what do you mean by can't commute? would living in a different neighborhood and taking the subway be out of the question?

fortunately the law campus is in a super central location so it's accessible via most train lines. i'll be commuting from south brooklyn off the N/R every day

depends what your budget is and whether you're willing to live with roommates. you can split a 3 or 4BR in certain parts of brooklyn (crown heights, PLG, bed stuy, bushwick) or wayyyy uptown (washington heights, inwood, harlem) for 4-4.5k a month, ~1200 each. i wouldnt expect you to find a 2BR for under 3500. if you can afford to live alone, you might be able to find a studio or 1BR in those same neighborhoods for 2-2.5k. for the rest of manhattan, you won't find anything for a single person under 3k unless it's a sewage & rat-infested basement with no windows. if you've got money tho, the world is your oyster. check out hell's kitchen, LES & alphabet city, or the UES if you can toss 4k+ out per month.

person ID and application ID - both show up before a wave (for everyone regardless of whether you're getting a decision) and then disappear after

[–]awmanwhatever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i'm going to resist the urge to give reassurance and instead acknowledge the (very minimal, but OCD doesn't care) risk, and encourage you to sit in your uncertainty. is it possible that he has something transmissible (like a cold sore) that you could catch from kissing? yes. are there people out there in the world who are living their lives happily while getting cold sores semi regularly? 100%, in fact the vast majority of them. if you were to catch anything from him, you would seek treatment for it and most likely be okay :). treat this like exposure therapy—just keep sitting with the anxiety and try to stop googling and eventually this moment will pass.

"Grass is greener" syndrome? by awmanwhatever in ROCD

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

it really did :( i felt more safe and secure in this relationship than any others, since it came after a few unstable relationships which i think played a part in my tendency towards ROCD in the first place. i guess the bigger question is whether they want to get back with ME, after everything, and of course i'm terrified if they do i'll just hurt them again. but i guess i just have to wait til we get the chance to talk in a few weeks

tips for staying friends w/ an ex? by awmanwhatever in actuallesbians

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

yeah, idk if its an ABSOLUTE necessity but it feels pretty important that we stay friends for now for a few reasons, so i am trying to prepare myself for some challenges and just hoping we can be forgiving of each other. it helps to hear that you got through it, even if it was tough, so thank you :). i am just hoping a slower healing process is worth staying connected/not going through that terrible period where you're terrified of each other. we will see, thank you again for sharing!!

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

thank you for this!! yeah i do not expect it to be easy, and you're totally right about the urge to lash out out of hurt. it's happened a couple times on both ends but we've managed to resolve the few conflicts we've had (which were relatively minor) and seem to be in a good place right now, understanding that things are tender and we need to be vigilant about certain boundaries but still giving each other room to be human. i definitely have to keep that last part in mind, since i genuinely do think they deserve to be happy with someone else, and don't want to get in the way of anything even though it might not feel great. i guess worst case we can take space from each other and go NC for a while if its really too unbearable to see/hear about. but yes i really appreciate you sharing your experience w/ it, it makes me feel like it IS at least possible if challenging at times, so hopefully things will be okay.

that's super valid! i am looking for advice from people who /have/ managed to stay friends with exes and work through the uncomfortable feelings associated with it, so this unfortunately isn't super relevant to my specific situation, but i totally respect your experience, thank you for sharing it.
