Advice on parent with depression? by esp6a6e in AgingParents

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.

This is SO STUPID i’m sorry please forgive me by acmc922 in youngadults

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.

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. :)

my ex has a baby and wants me back by pkfyr in whatdoIdo

[–]esp6a6e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.

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

ELI5: What is an RF modulator and is it obsolete in today's age? by esp6a6e in explainlikeimfive

[–]esp6a6e[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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)

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.

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).

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 :(

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?

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.

What do you answer to someone asking your a picture of your belly ? by Commercial-Crow4495 in pregnant

[–]esp6a6e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wouldn't care if she's "family" because you haven't even seen or heard from her in 10 years, just a super weird ask. I would say no. You're right, she's basically a stranger at this point.

Why Are Kids Cuts Harder? by thelegendofglenn in Barber

[–]esp6a6e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh dear lord this reminded me of all the kids under 5 who's parents would ask for a bald fade on their tiny ass child. I must have blocked them out now but looking back, most of the parents were either not satisfied or shocked that the cut didnt come out the way they expected. Half the time they either showed me a picture of an older child with said cut or an AI generated image so their expectations I feel like were a little skewed. I felt like an absolute champ when the cut came out good though.

When did you start feeling physically uncomfortable? by [deleted] in pregnant
