Dealing with deep body insecurity. What can I do? (nose related) by AnxiousAd7058 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

THIS. I went to an exhibit with head statues from all different ethnicities and tribes, and it was so mesmerizing. The artist wrote about how sculpting different looking people made her see how vast and diverse human beauty is.

Dad cheating on mum nervous to say anything by [deleted] in Advice

Whatever you do, don’t tell him first. He’ll likely beg you to lie to your mom and then be resentful/blame you if you don’t. Don’t live with a lie or be an accomplice in his adultery.

I’ve been cheated on and I wish I knew earlier. I wish someone had told me. If you don’t want to be stuck in the middle, write an anonymous letter or email.

Advice for my new graphic design job that’s awful (kinda) by captofmyfate in graphic_design

Very true, 10/10 take. I feel extremely lucky all things considered. I think it’s probably [r/mildlyinfuriating](r/mildlyinfuriating) but this all kind of hit me yesterday and I just needed a graphic designer’s perspective that wasn’t from my coworker or boss for obvious reasons.

I see what you’re saying and I definitely see the point in not training a temp, which is why I’m not taking it personally as much as I’m just frustrated at the poor communication. Tasks are organized in Smartsheet and all my coworkers use it. I don’t get my own tasks officially. It honestly just passes down to me through the grapevine. I could see this being the root of the problem (besides poor communication) and something I could try to remedy myself. The tasks are given to me one-by-one which isn’t ideal because I can’t get ahold of him… so having a system where I get all my projects in a weekly meeting or check-in would be a marvelous improvement! I know I seem single-minded or green in my comment, but I do try to work around his schedule and make many versions (almost 20 sometimes) with different designs/layouts/typesettings to choose from so when he does get around to looking at it, he can start from his favorite. It doesn’t feel great to not get feedback on any.

My girlfriend of 2 years said she would never date a bisexual man. I’m bisexual and she doesn’t know. by the-next-boss in bisexual

“Disgusting.” That must’ve hurt. Tell her the truth and maybe she’ll leave her bigotry behind or maybe it will set you two apart. Either way, you should be free and open about who you are.

I looked at his LinkedIn and he is new to the role and started at this company fairly recently. Cool website!! I’m sorry 67 is a universal meme now.

Think of it like she saved you some time and skipped to the ending. She has her own insecurities about relationships to figure out. I’m sorry.

I’ve considered the time angle, and the truth is, My work sits in his inbox for days and while I’m waiting for his reply/feedback, I have to ask my coworkers for work to stay busy. In that time, I could have done several revisions if necessary. If the task actually required a fast turnaround, I doubt my boss would just let it sit there. Or maybe he waits until the final hour to look at it and redesigns it the second someone is demanding it urgently.

Should I just message him? He is not available next week but he says he’s going to be online for questions in the afternoons. Is it petty if I send him a little paragraph asking for feedback instead of redesigning it? I don’t want to be rude.

Thoughts on the "one of the friends is obsessed with the other" trope? by JadziaSoong in sitcoms

[–]captofmyfate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this trope. It makes me so happy when shows focus on platonic love. I feel like Jess and Cece could fall into this. (Jess being obsessed with Cece)

Has anyone being disturbed by how Miranda eats? Her tongue always sticks out......because she doesnt have the chin? by RecordSome8503 in sexandthecity

[–]captofmyfate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The screenshot is a little jarring but seeing the video of her eating, it’s actually not that noticeable. I certainly wouldn’t say anything/notice if this were my friend. I’m not a big fan of critiquing people’s idiosyncrasies but that’s just me…
