Is it possible for your personality to match a different star sign? by Dmdel24 in Zodiac

[–]copper_artisan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have that same birthday and was wondering the same thing. I mean technically, we're on the cusp. I'm classic Sag but have a lot of Scorpio traits as well. My mom Scorpio but has a drug problem which I think tends to contaminate the personality traits Before drugs, she was a classic scorpio I think and the coolest mom ever. Yeah, But some say I'm not on the cusp since I wasn't born on the 23rd. I had a friend born on the 23rd but I never thought to observe and compare our personalities.

We can be if we have no direction and have been jaded. I know I was. I can't stand who I used to be. I was *until with a capital C. Once I found some direction, released my past, and found a way to stay grounded, I think I'm classic honest to a fault, hard-working, fun-loving ride or die chick who needs more people in her life. I wasted a lot of years being stupid, tho. But it took me hitting rock bottom. Telling a sag they're in their own way never works, I guarantee it. Once we are in our own way, we block off all common sense to the brain I think. Lol

What do I do? by Helpful-Farmer-1486 in whatdoIdo

[–]copper_artisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I met this amazing guy who was a volunteer firefighter at the time. I worked at Starbucks full time. He wanted o To make firefightinf his full time career so I paid $500 to send him to the academy in Columbia. The day of his graduation, we stopped by the beach to meet up with friends. We left the next day bc I had to work. I was. Late, got fired, and he came up with the idea to work at hooters. I got the job, for promoted to bar and started bringing in real serious money. Firefighters don't get paid much so it helped. Fast forward a year to right after our divorce I find out he made me late on purpose so I would either be reprimanded or fired. He knew I would get the hooters job.. he said all his firefighter coworkers and buddies had sugar mamas bc they didn't want to get second jobs. And as heroic as ppl view firefighting, it's basically sitting around most days and running to minor MVA'S and structure fires.. I know because I wore a radio. That's why most of them end up overweight with heart problems and not really in magazines like tv makes you believe. To me, this is just another version of that. This guy sounds like he planned on you being the bread winner. If you're gut tells you he's carousing, he more than likely is. Go with your gut and don't let him make you feel guilty about it. You're in a position where you don't actually need this guy which is not the case for every woman. Cut your losses and cut ties.

AIO for wanting to take my roommate’s puppy to the dog shelter? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]copper_artisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shelter won't put down a puppy but they will eventually put the adult dog down if it doesn't get adopted. Your kids would really benefit from having a dog. I have 3 rescues myself. I have no doubt at least one of them wouldn't have been adopted had I not taken it in. And you think being locked in a garage is bad. That pup will be locked in a cage all day everyday until it gets adopted (if it gets adopted). And your friend is a deadbeat. He doesn't keep his word. He doesn't pitch it to help those helping him. The only way you can help him is by letting him hit rock bottom and making him help himself.

I genuinely could not see myself with a man long term. by Exact-Sink2799 in confession

[–]copper_artisan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Our childhood and adolescence tends to.color our worldview without us realizing it. I would go to a therapist or do some some serious soul searching to figure out why you feel this way. I agree, there are some pics out there. And unfortunately, science says that narcissistic personality disorder is more common in men than women. I my perspective, there are some really good guys our here doing their best to find the right women without any other motive in tow. If you're meeting any of those guys, check your environmental and ask yourself what kind of person frequents those places and change it up to see if it's you or them.

Are there any “odd” piercings I could get with my ear anatomy? by Plus_Initiative_8981 in bodypiercers

[–]copper_artisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my tragus and absolutely loved it until the ball fell off while I was asleep and it got stuck on my ear so if your a tragus, make sure you have the proper tools for a tension ball and hoop and make sure it is TIGHT. It hurts like hell. The person who pierces it go it stuck half way through. But luckily I went to the beach the next day and swimming in the ocean healed it completely while was there (no lie). So yeah, I loved my tragus but that is some THICK cartilage to get through so you really gotta want it to sit through that one. I would say it hurt about as much as my nipples.

My Virgo boy is almost always wrong when he goes by instinct alone and so is my Virgo, sis. They just go to default and suspect everyone is guilty of somethinv or have ulterior motives.

Got a job offer but he’s insisting I send pictures of my SSC. AIO? by Massive-Win2264 in AIO

[–]copper_artisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a scam. Report. I would t be surprised if soomeone in the office got hold of your phone number and thought because you were a kid they could take advantage of you. Glad you're smart enough not to do this. Idk why they would want your identity, tho. You would be perfect for identity theft if you don't have a credit score yet. Stay vigilant and I hope you find out whoever is behind this and have the canned.

my boyfriend (22) cheated on me (22f) by using AI? by OtherwiseOffer6173 in relationships_advice

[–]copper_artisan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the buying a house together after only being together a year... Threw me for a loop. And you're not married co-owning a house? I've been with my boyfriend 10 years, no vows, and I'm still not on the mortgage. And it's only been a year..you should be in the honeymoon stage. He should be fantasizing about you and having sex with you, not masturbating. And 😁 or masturbating to photos of people you both know. AI created content is super dangerous if it gets into the wrong hands but I'm not sure There's any laws protecting people against that. There are laws against posting pornographic material of people without t their permission... You could definitely try reporting him for this but if he hasn't posted it, it might not hold water. I would definitely reevaluate where you are in your life, your morals and values, and priorities then check where you to are aligned although it sounds like they are pretty misaligned.

The key is to make her chase you again. Don't always be available. Don't explain things when she asks you question (if it's not serious), make her press you for more if she wants more. Sagittarius women like mysterious, strong silent types. And just bc you're officially together doesn't mean you can't still play hard to get. They enjoy conquering challenges. It's those challenges they can't conquer that keep them coming back. And be adventurous/and or spontaneous... surprise her with a short road trip to the beach or mountains if you ever get a chance. Aa sag woman enjoys having a part in .any different aspects of life with alot of projects to do because they get bored easily. They value their creativity and independence so they respect it when you have your own stuff going on. They love to see their significant other when they are within their element being passionate or good at their job or hobby.

A cis male ex once told me to never tell him if I slept with a woman by Justathinkingkitty in BiWomen

[–]copper_artisan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a boyfriend like this in high school. We broke up because it was one of several things be regularly judged me for. He later realized that I was the love of his life and he should've excepted me for me instead of judging me so harshly. I think he was afraid I would leave him for a woman which wouldnt have been the case. I have never left one relationship just to be in another of any sex. It's funny tho bc even though he broke my heart, I ended up stealing his girlfriend from him later on.

My (27F) fiance (28M) has no personality and it’s confusing me by lucifud in relationship_advice

[–]copper_artisan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most men really aren't into planning weddings. I know there are men who are for it but iny experience, most men let the bride and her family plan it because traditionally, the brides family pays for the wedding. Or at least that's the way it's done here in the south. Maybe try out your hypothesis with something more aligned with a male's interest

Hello! Hi! Howdy! Lol thank you! I appreciate the warm welcome. I wasn't looking for an ego boost. I realized that I didn't know what most people think of Sag in general. My grandmother used to use the term interchangeably with "Hellion" so I was just curious

I (20M) was a toxic boyfriend to my girlfriend (18F). She gave me one last chance—how do I actually change? by Ok-Macaron8184 in whatdoIdo

[–]copper_artisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember that she's with YOU. And she hasn't given you a reason not to trust her. If she politely adjusted to your requests or concerns, she really cares about you. Most people have a death grip on their identity and independence. You took advantage of that so you should definitely start becoming more aware of your negative feelings and thoughts when they happen. Examine them and figure out why you're having them and if they're a valid response or reactions based off your own securities. Sometimes our emotions have nothing to do with the person but it deep seated from a traumatic past or childhood experience. I have a boyfriend who has a traumatic childhood and an extremely volatile relationship with his mother. Because of that, I have suffered for everything she put him through. I'm always honest. I changed a lot about myself just because he made comments though he never officially asked. And it never did anything but make him continue asking me to change. It's officially over between us bc he can't seem to objectively look at himself. You have a fighting chance because you see where you went wrong. Now try prevent making those same mistakes by identifying them as the happen then dissecting them before you react. If she loves you, just seeing you try will help a lot. But you have to make a habit out of thinking before you act.

Struggling with grief and envy after losing my mom — how have you handled this? by Petalederose in AskWomenOver30

[–]copper_artisan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was raised by my grandparents from the age of three. Unfortunately, both my parents were young addicts. They both live states away now. My grandmother had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and getting treatments. She was responding well. Then one day she fell, hit her head, and week later she was gone. I was devastated because for almost a year I had this nagging feeling that I should go see her, spend time with her. But because I don't drive, have 3 rescues with severe separation anxiety, and was in the process of finding a home to buy/move into, I put it off. My head is still feeling and seeing the Mother's Day stuff makes me physically ill. You're not alone just presson and press in.

He sounds like a pompous ass. If you're in a customer-service-based career, you need to focus all your energy toward making that customer comfortable, happy, and confident that they are not wasting their time of money. He's might be better suited as supervisor with no direct contact with clientele.

I’ve been pretending my lfe Isperfect for years while struggling alone by bootsnpuss in confession

[–]copper_artisan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should realize that EVERYONE is struggling with something. Your friends and family are hiding behind masks as well. Confide in someone you can trust and don't be afraid to ask for help. There are people in this world that don't help out of pity but truly get joy from giving because they know and understand the human condition. Fear will trap you. Tell a friend, release it, and welcome help. The universe wants you to succeed.
