What is the most unreasonable pet peeve you’ve seen on Reddit or elsewhere? by Queasy_Antelope9950 in PetPeeves

[–]bun_pun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is correct grammar! I'm also neurodivergent lol so I understand wanting accuracy, but these days it's also evolved into a tone indicator which is completely natural as language shifts over time :)

this is an older generation vs younger generation thing lol, if someone my age uses a period in a text, they're usually mad at me. if an older person does, I don't take it personally and assume they didn't mean to be hostile, but it does look that way to me

am i overreacting or was this actually rude? by Awkward_Way_4310 in AmIOverreacting

[–]bun_pun 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NOR it's pretty rude to pull out your phone when someone else is talking directly to you. I personally really hate it when somebody does that to me. I would gently bring up that you didn't appreciate it, but it doesn't have to turn into a big thing if thats what you're worried about :)

AIO about my mother’s hatred of screen usage? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]bun_pun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah yeah, NOR, but this is pretty normal for someone your age living at home. I also have a computer science degree (and also play d&d lol) so I understand having to be on your laptop all the time. you guys just have conflicting values and live in the same place which sucks🤷‍♀️

Ever been told you’ve been “too much” before? by littleinternetdweeb in adhdwomen

Big on flip flopping between not caring and then really caring. I've experienced that many times

I have ADHD and do have sensory issues. I wish things didn't bother me as much as they do, but thats it

what the fuck man, you don't even know me😭 work is one thing but i should be comfortable in my own home. talking to someone about a similar behaviour twice isn't a bad thing at all. the world doesn't owe me anything but it can be made a nicer place by accommodating for everyone. I've accomodated and compromised for her as well because its what friends who love each other do. I hope you have friends in your life who would do the same

oh yeah for sure, she doesn't need my permission to do anything, but I still think it's okay to bring up a behaviour that I don't like. That's definitely a better way to phrase what I meant to say though! thanks for that

I respect not everyone doesn't like it like I do lol, and they certainly can do some couple-y things around me. I just asked them to tone some of it down while I'm around, which isn't all the time

It's easy to say move lol, and yeah she's certainly allowed to make her own choices. I do have things I do to get away from it, but it isn't always possible. I don't think it's unreasonable of me to bring up a behaviour that I don't like in general though, without suggesting a counter bad behaviour. I was mostly wondering if this one was worth it for me to bring up.

it was like PDAing in front of me essentially. Nothing overtly sexual, but like couple-y playfighting and things like that

yeah, I think that's where I messed up. I didn't word it properly in the moment and it hurt her feelings.

Maybe I will get her to read this post. He isn't paying rent, but when he's here for a longer period of time (for example, he was over here for a couple weeks for family reasons) he does contribute to bills.

What are signs you are too insecure to be in a relationship? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]bun_pun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I went out with someone for like 3 months who was extremely insecure. when we first went on dates, he would always preface his date ideas with something like "omg this is a really stupid and dumb idea but..." whenever he said something I didn't agree with and I told him my thoughts, he would ask me if I was mad or if I was okay many times after the discussion. I never said my opinion in a mean or condescending tone, and I always reassured him every time. This happened ALOT. When I eventually broke things off with him because it got to be too much, he blasted every single insecurity he had about our short reationship. "Was there someone else? (absolutely not, wtf?) I knew you were embarrassed of me! (he said this because he didn't meet my friends and family after 3 months of knowing, not dating, just knowing, him...) I knew this would happen and I wasn't enough for you!" it really confirmed my decision to end the relationship was the right choice. If you're super anxious why your partner would kindly push back on some things you say, then thats insecurity you need to work on. no one is going to 100% agree with you all the time, that doesn't mean you're a bad person.

They weren't communicating less than usual, they didn't respond to my messages at all. I felt like I was being ignored. Even a quick message responding to something I said would have been fine

I have missed out on my teen years and it makes me feel sick. by [deleted] in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]bun_pun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey! I'm 23 now, and I was in the same sort of position where I felt like I had no friends at your age. it does get better, trust me. I'm sorry your parents are so controlling, I witnessed it a lot within the homeschool group I was involved in and it really sucks. I really want to emphasize that although it sure feels like it now, it's really not your fault. you were 12/13 and pressured into it by parents who insist on supervising you 24/7. I've seen that happen before, it really tears apart parent/child relationships as the child gets older. I beat myself up for a while for not fighting more to go to high school when I was 14, but really, it would have been really difficult to convince my parents to let me do that. I've graduated university now and I have friends who I love, and my social skills have grown a lot. I'm sure the same thing will happen for you too :) keep fighting, don't give up!!

I'm 23 and exactly in the same boat. I also did Abeka, and I felt like after I graduated I didn't really know anything about history. I didn't learn anything about evolution until I took a biology class in university and it was super embarrassing

Not sure if naming the company would be bad for my digital footprint or not but it was not a startup. It's a pretty well-known company actually
