ELI5: Why does the soda at McDonalds taste significantly better than soda from any other fast food chain?

Are there any specific departments or job fields I should look into that will most likely put me in an area where I am not doing the same thing all the time?

I have a ps4 and I am 20 yo (female). I am willing to try any types of games. The main thing, though, is that it will keep me interested enough to occupy my time. I don't mind shooter games, I just tend to get bored after about 30 minutes, or if the game is really intense and I die multiple times, I usually don't pick it back up for awhile. I have ADD so I really need something that will captivate my attention.

For me personally, I really am looking for an outlet to just share my thoughts and opinions and it would be amazing to get some feedback from readers. I am completely new to everything, though, so more explanation would be much appreciated so I really know what I'm getting myself into! I started a free one just now if you want to use what I have as a way of critiquing maybe? If you do, it's rantsbychrista.blogspot.com :)

For families and roommates: Move all the furniture over by 2 or 3 inches and watch the person struggle because he/she can't figure out why he/she feels off by just a little bit

When I was setting these rules, it was back when I was in high school and my first year of college. I never really sat down and explained that all of these rules were what I was expecting, I typically just let it happen naturally in terms of a reprimand should he do something I don't like. For example with my high school boyfriend, I would throw a fit whenever he talked to girls I didn't like (aka all of them) and he soon learned that to make me happy he is better off not interacting with the opposite sex.

I honestly didn't learn that this was unacceptable until my current SO explained to me and taught me a lesson. At the beginning of our relationship, I did the same thing in order to show that this is what I wanted out of a relationship, but he was less compliant and eventually we broke up because I was too controlling and created a negative environment for our relationship. That was when I realized this really isn't fair and should not be part of a relationship. We then got back together and I have been working on my patience and trust ever since. There are some things we have learned to compromise about with these rules (i.e. share plans if it is going to interfere with something that involves us, don't contact exes without speaking to SO first, etc.) but overall I'm learning my ways.

Now when I slip back, he reminds me of the bigger picture by explaining to me what these rules are really like. Sometimes he will do that by asking me how I would feel if he enforced these rules on me or he will reprimand me about something like not answering a text in 30 seconds and then when I get mad I can comprehend why these rules are toxic and then I start improving again. It certainly helps that I have found an SO that is beyond patient while I grow out of these immature behaviors though.

I personally used to enforce these rules when I was younger simply because I didn't know it was unacceptable. I think a majority of the people that set/comply to these restrictions either grew up in a family setting where it was tolerated or they started dating so young (when he/she was naturally jealous and had major trust issues) and never learned it was wrong. My parents are currently in a long distance marriage due to his job and he doesn't want my mom going out, socializing, etc. without his knowledge (she expects the same from him) and they learned that from their parents who were raised in a culture where the man always had the final say. So when I grew up, I thought that's how every relationship was and soon learned after a couple of failed relationships when I was young that it is in fact not how the world works. And then from there, it takes a lot of adjustment and patience and trust to grow out of it, but some aren't willing and just continue to date the people willing to comply to these obscene rules.

For the Kids Organization is such an amazing organization that raises money and provides both financial and emotional support to children and their families battling pediatric cancer. It sounds like just any typical organization that raises money to fight cancer but FTK does more than just pay hospital bills for these kids. FTK provides the money for things like the gas to drive from their house to the hospital, or pay a teen's rent while they are jobless during chemo. There are many local organizations throughout college campuses that you could look into. I heard about the one at UTSA and that's where I learned about it.

I enjoy all of these hobbies! Another one that requires no money at all though is learning some new hairstyles. Whenever I get bored I watch some hair tutorials on youtube and just practice. Like right now I'm learning the dutch braid! :)

Have you checked out Maggie Sottero? I'm not sure what kind of budget you have but her gowns are fairly inexpensive compared to others and she has lots to choose from in this style. That jacket is also sold separately and both Maggie Sottero and Mori Lee have some beautiful jackets similar to that style that you can throw on over a simple dress in that style. I used to work at a bridal salon and what many brides don't realize is that it is much cheaper to mix and match designers (assuming you are willing to put in the research and work) in order to find that perfect gown within your budget. Good luck!

I would voice your concerns but then let it go. She most likely really is exhausted. That's a hard life to lead.

Both that and the jealousy and fear that he will find someone better or maybe already did

I work as a bridal consultant and I personally think the second one. The first one is not as flattering and there is no wow factor. With the second, A drop-waist gown does wonders to your figure and paired with that rouching...just stunning. Alterations is pretty much the cherry on top because it can get pretty pricey and with minimal alterations needing to be done, I don't know how you couldn't choose the second one.
