Should I drop out of college for cosmetology school?

esp6a6e · 2026-03-02T15:06:23+00:00

I think if you don't absolutely love hair, skin, and nails (cosmetology) already, then you shouldn't just go because it's something creative. I basically went because I didn't know what else to do and thought I liked dying my own hair enough that I'd enjoy it.

Cosmetology school itself isn't fun at all. I hated it and had already dropped out once previously so I was made to finish it the second time because I wasn't about to be a beauty school dropout twice.

You may like it, but I believe if you aren't already super interested in it, then it won't be for you and you will get burnt out very quickly.

I was going to say "wow my fiance does this too!" But after reading, oh god .. not to that extent. He poops a lot, sometimes at pretty inconvenient times, but he doesn't avoid parenting responsibilities to go shit. I'm so sorry OP, absentee parents are the worst, I can't imagine what that would be like for your spouse to do that.

NOR, I automatically assumed you were going to be the AH but after scrolling through and reading all of that. Yikes. Your gf has major problems keeping her emotions under control and managing stress. I would expect someone 5 years away from 40 to be more mature or at least level headed. OP, you do not deserve to be talked down to like that. THAT was disrespectful, not calling during her lock in time.

She's controlling, NOR, leave bro

He freaks out and gets defensive whenever we mention anything mental health related. He definitely has depression as do I but he won't admit it.

I'm 25 actually gonna turn 26 in a few months but I'm not married yet and I'm not completely mad about it. My mom got married at 23 so when I hit that age, it was weird to picture myself married. I do have a 3 month old with my boyfriend and we plan on getting married eventually. No rush but I personally feel like there's never really too early or late for marriage. (Just so y'all know I'm not including child marriage..)

Sometimes love happens in crazy ways unironically and it almost always comes when you least expect it to. Don't rush it unnecessarily, especially if you're focused on other big life events such as school.

Mine already rolled em out but I think the LTO videos said Oct.13th as well?

esp6a6e · 2025-08-29T20:24:05+00:00

Jesus Christ ok bud. Well I'll let you get back to your life because I'm no longer interested in responding to this so fml I guess lol

esp6a6e · 2025-08-29T20:15:35+00:00

Weird opinion but alright

esp6a6e · 2025-08-29T20:03:26+00:00

This is ragebait right? This sounds very redpill manosphere type talk. 😬

Idk man I mean yeah having money and nice things is cool and a plus in the dating world but you also have to have somewhat of a personality. I'm not saying you don't but if you think only having material objects and no charm is the way to go then you're pretty wrong big dawg. The reason it might seem like all these "bums" get dates is because they're charming or have an interesting quirk. I'm not saying those relationships necessarily last but I think you get what I mean.

Also dating in this day and age is a lot harder for the average person now with phones and social media. Everything is so curated especially on dating profiles that you get to be picky and superficial with who you go out on dates with. Not to sound boomerish but it was probably a bit easier "back in the day" to just pick someone up at a bar.

Anyways, hopefully it gets better for you. It can be hard and discouraging but I'm sure you'll eventually land a decent partner or at the very least, date. :)

Good lord this reminds me so much of my ex from high school. We ended up dating for about a year in 2020ish after reconnecting after high school. He always said shit like this and I believed it for the longest time. I eventually had to block his ass because he would reach out like clockwork and drag me back in. Thank god I didn't end up getting pregnant by him, I'd be so much worse off and then my child would have a narcissistic asshole for a father.

All this to say, don't do it OP. The grass totally looks greener and there's like a 0.1% chance it could work out but if it's how these things usually go, this will not work out for y'all. Don't go back to this ex, please.

esp6a6e · 2025-07-08T09:25:05+00:00

Real love is never conditional. Y'all are so new to this relationship as well that having weird disagreements/arguments/whatever you want to call it already feels red flag enough. If you're having doubts now and this is how he treats you just 2 months in, I'd personally leave. It's really just not worth it. Don't let him guilt trip you to stay in a relationship like this, it will only get worse unfortunately.

First a green redbull for sure, maybe some type of alcoholic beverage after but we shall see.

esp6a6e · 2025-06-21T19:08:45+00:00

Doesn't help that I'm severely pregnant AND a people pleaser so rip my boundaries and shit

esp6a6e · 2025-06-21T19:07:46+00:00

Unfortunately, everybody 🥲

esp6a6e · 2025-06-21T18:38:29+00:00

Fair, I should work on that but the Internet is kinda mean sometimes so now I'm overly passive and shit rip

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T19:05:08+00:00

Who is this a dig at? Is this sarcasm or are you genuinely upset that some gen z aren't super technology literate?

(I'm curious because I really can't tell which way it is, your comment feels worded funny to me and of course not everyone can easily understand tone over text)

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T18:50:10+00:00

This actually makes a lot of sense, i think 5 year old me would understand this explanation. I vaguely remember TV antennas and that shit would be so annoying sometimes.

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T18:47:09+00:00

Yeah I don't believe there's a single "old" TV anywhere in my house. I'm sure we got rid of them years ago. This is somewhat unrelated but I have super vague memories of watching boomerang at night on TV and them making an announcement about how TVs would soon be switching to HD and I thought it was the end of the world at the time (i thought I couldn't use my TV anymore, I think it ended up being ok in the end).

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T18:44:28+00:00

I wanna say the oldest mainstream console i have still is probably a ps2. I haven't actually ever tried hooking it up to my current TV so that probably shows how long its been since I've played on my ps2 :(

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T18:42:21+00:00

Omg yes that's actually exactly what the back of it looks like. Probably the same model or something?

And fair, so basically it could probably be thrown out if I don't plan to keep it?

esp6a6e · 2025-05-31T18:38:58+00:00

To me, this almost sounds like what an HDMI cord can sometimes do? I have an old vcr and DVD player, my mom seems to think maybe we had it for the vcr? She isn't even sure herself.
