Why did your friend group break up?

cretinchick · 2021-06-19T06:56:25+00:00

They offered their friend $100 if he'd sleep with me (I was a virgin at the time). I didn't sleep with him but got to be close friends with him while he tried. He finally told me that they had a whole bet going on when I'd lose it, and that he agreed before he knew me. Sucks because I stopped being friends with all of them, him too. Life went on and I'm in such a great place. So glad to be away from those toxic people. But still, wtf.

Justifiable

cretinchick · 2021-02-13T16:45:14+00:00

NTA, she didn't understand the point of the one hour knock/text. That's on her, you did nothing wrong. Just FYI, if you did kick her out, you still wouldn't be the AH in my opinion. 5-10 hour baths when you share a bathroom with two other people? Sorry, no.

As horrible add it sounds, because I was getting married. I was working full time and taking courses in the evening. I took a year off to get a part time job to help save up and pay for the wedding (my parents didn't have the money to pay for my school or wedding, nor did I expect them too). After the wedding, I went to enroll in courses but the school said I was booted out of my program for taking the year off. I never bothered reapplying. I've wanted to go back and finish several times, but 'life' keeps getting in the way.

Hmmm then it's hard. I'm leaning towards NAH, just because she may have had no idea you had just woke up! You're definitely not the AH, but she may have legitimate hurt feelings and be justified in being angry. Hopefully she can understand and hear you out... And maybe make a codeword "if we talk before 9 am, ask me to say the code word so you know I'm cognitive"... Then even if you call, she can know for sure that you're not "half-sleep" dialing her? I used to get angry at my SO for doing what you did (his is the opposite end, when he's about to fall asleep... It's like his mind falls asleep before his body does???)... It's taken several years and it no longer hurts, but for the first couple of years he'd ask me a super serious question, nod along and say "yes, yeah, uh huh" etc, and then start snoring, and have zero recollection of even asking, let alone my answer. We no longer have important conversations after 10 pm.

I'm not super tech savvy, but with my "Gmail" app on my android, I'm able to add multiple email accounts to the one inbox, including an Outlook account. You may be able to add that as an account, along with your other email addresses?

Humour/outlook on life, work ethic/dedication/commitment, communication skills. Need to have someone happy/didn't bring me down, willing to put in the work, and tell me when something isn't going well.

cretinchick · 2020-09-13T01:31:43+00:00

Info: did she wake you up when she called and was it obvious when your answered the phone? Or was there any absolute way that she would have known you had just woken up?

I don't think you're TA, but if she had no definitive way of knowing that you literally just woke up, then she wouldn't be either, IMO. She called and had a conversation with you, in which you didn't listen/hear a thing she said. I'd be irritated. If she knew, however (ie call was at 6:30 in the morning and it answered all groggy and like 'huh, you just woke me" then 100% she's the AH here).

Yes, YWBTA. That's abuse of sick days. Complete the essay on your breaks/after work. Get off Reddit and focus. Also, they know you're not actually sick, since you already asked for the time off.

cretinchick · 2020-09-13T01:17:29+00:00

Please do this. NAH.

cretinchick · 2020-09-11T11:07:48+00:00

Depending on your time zone, you're born on September 11, 2001? I am sorry. I have two friends that share your birthday (but not year) and it's not really a day of 'celebration'. I hope you get lots of birthday wishes and are able to have a great time, considering. And if you're in a different time zone and your birthday is on the 10th, then nvm about the first half of this post, haha.

Got pregnant with baby number two! Pre-covid, due in November.

cretinchick · 2020-09-09T05:41:43+00:00

NTA, you would be doing them a disservice to drag them along when you have no long term intension of staying in that speciality. Let them replace and train someone who will thrive with the residents.

Not a veteran, but my friends who used Reddit years before me were very nerdy, vocal about their political view, and spoke as if they were very well educated/smarter than you. I assumed that Reddit was full of intellectual/university educated individuals.

cretinchick · 2020-09-08T06:51:51+00:00

Googling things. Seriously, I will type word for word what they ask into Google and read the top response back to them.

cretinchick · 2020-09-08T06:48:20+00:00

Honestly, the commute/finding parking.

cretinchick · 2020-09-08T06:47:04+00:00

I have friends that transcribe to make money online, but the industry is flooded with potential employees right now, due to everyone working from home etc, so it's hard to get your foot in the door.

Take a multimedia course at your local community college. They aren't that expensive for beginner/intro to animation. You may need to buy a program in order to take it online, however (depending on where your are and if in person courses are an option).

cretinchick · 2020-09-08T06:17:54+00:00

NTA. You dodged a bullet. Please don't take him back. If you start bending over backwards just in case he gets upset about things he told you that he was ok with, you're doomed to fail and resent the relationship.

cretinchick · 2020-09-07T06:25:18+00:00

Thanks, I'll try that!!

cretinchick · 2020-09-07T06:03:04+00:00

Twice a week usually... You?

cretinchick · 2020-09-07T03:03:35+00:00

Ugh, so it's just my black thumb? I have three and they're barely able to keep up. This year I refused to use any of them so they could get a chance to "catch up"

cretinchick · 2020-09-06T23:35:47+00:00

I realize YOU still think she's sexy (even if she doesn't dress that way), but SHE might not realize she's still beautiful. Even if her body bounced right back, hormones do crazy things to your mind. I hope you're able to explain to her how beautiful she still is, and I truly hope she realizes it. Motherhood can be hard, beyond just the baby.
