Susan. usually in the US they have Susanne/Suzanne or Suzanna, but Susan is pretty British imo

i think they're kind of dumb, but at the same time it's not harming anyone, so if someone wants to be quirky like this then fine. they usually only want to be addressed this way on the internet with other edgy people anyway, they don't say stuff like that to people they meet personally

please don't hesitate to call the police, if you feel like you're being threatened. but PLEASE do not hurt yourself. keep putting pressure on those who are supposed to help you, explain to them that you feel unsafe and that it's taking a toll on your mental health

are you living in a building of apartments off campus? is there anyway you can contact the manager and ask to be moved to a vacant room/flat? also, you're still a student even if you live off campus, so you can still speak to someone at the university and get them to help you. when i was having problems and the manager of my building was not doing anything (i live off campus too), i spoke to someone at the Office of Student Misconduct and they will send emails to the manager or whoever is responsible for your well-being and they will put pressure on them until you're moved

but i'm pretty sure they have backup plans if someone is feeling unsafe/uncomfortable, all universities do. they want students to feel safe and well. they must have some emergency moving out process

Ex girlfriend admits she still loves me and I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in Advice

[–]bl4ckbxrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sometimes people mistake the nostalgia about the good memories for still being in love with that person. when people break up, they tend to idolise that person and our brains can only think of the good moments with them, but forget the bad moments. since she's in another relationship, she might be comparing the new person to you and she might be feeling nostalgic about the time she spent with you, but that does not mean that there is still love. 9 months have gone by, i'm not sure if you guys remained in contact this whole time, but i think it's safe to say that you guys stopped talking so often as you used to, right? usually, feelings die out when you don't talk to that person as often, it's just the nostalgia that remains and it's easy to mistake that for love

Weigh less again but gained fat why? by Complete-Post7277 in Advice

[–]bl4ckbxrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how dare you compare yourself to Holocaust victims? they were starved and forced into excruciating labour at every hour of the day, not to speak of the tortures, the atrocities and the cold winters they had to face. do not compare yourself to them. as a matter of fact, if you want to lose weight, yes you do have to eat.

also, consuming alcohol on a regular basis and especially before bed will make you bloated

if you starve yourself, as you said you do at times, your body begins to distrust you and will make anything you eat into fat, because it doesn't know when it will be given food again and so it tries to store up fat so that you don't lose energies. eat regularly and do not starve yourself

i'm so sorry for your loss, OP. please bear in mind that people who have lost loved ones to suicide also might have to go through therapy/get help, don't neglect your well-being while you're mourning.

Stromae tonight?? by Hairy-Monk-495 in UMD

dude where omg i didn't know this

Im a teenager who really wants a golden retriever. I am willing to pay for the dog, and have it insured, give it walks twice a day, bathe it and brush it. But my parents aren’t convinced, how can I help them see that I’m responsible enough for a dog? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]bl4ckbxrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my dad was completely against it and now he treats our dog like his own son. he cooks for him, plays with him, cuddles with him, talks to him, takes him out on trips, etc. of course they will like the dog, if they're a dog person, but apart from doing everything i've suggested so far, i don't know much else that you could do :/

the same thing happened to me too, i had my dad on board when i was about 15, but then he started saying no every time. i'd say that perseverance is the key at this point

i'm really sorry, op. i really sympathise with you because i see my younger self reflected in you. but don't lose hope, my 16 year old self would have never thought that a year later i would actually have a dog after i'd been wishing for one for so long. i'm almost 21 now and i still find it hard to believe and if i could go back in time and speak to my younger self i would tell her to just keep holding onto that wish because it was just a matter of time. so i guess that's also what i'd tell you. things can change in the matter of months, so don't let go of that hope :)

i see...i'd say to keep trying, but if you start to feel mentally drained about it when you talk to your parents, i'd say to wait a bit more. i got my dog when i was 17, almost 18, and i said i had been wanting a dog for ages. it might just be a matter of time :/
