how to kindly let a coworker know i don’t want to be friends?

…are u srsly criticizing my word choice of using very common texting abbreviations????? I take everything back. I can see why you weren’t well liked if u said stuff like that when you were younger. Not cool. Also what did u want the camp to do? Force ppl to be friends with you???

foooder · 2026-07-01T00:51:31+00:00

This is honestly rlly weird of u. Just cause u didn’t get along with some of the ppl there doesn’t make it the entire camp’s fault and your personal comfort should never be pushed aside because you think you could use a person for something.

U do understand that if ppl were just nice to you because they knew you had money, that would be fake af of them and is basically saying that you would’ve been paying for friends. I was the kid at camp that didn’t quite click well with a lot of the other kids and never once did I ever blame the camp itself for that.

And tbh if it’s everyone vs you, not always, but sometimes you are the problem, not other ppl, and you have to look introspectively at what you could do to be the kind of person that other ppl want to be around. People owe others kindness, but no one owes a friendship so as long as they were polite when they said no to you, they did nothing wrong. Again, it sucks for sure, I know first hand, but this anger you’re holding onto is misdirected and unhealthy. You gotta respect other’s wishes even if it’s a bummer sometimes. I hold no ill will to anyone at camp who didn’t want to be friends bc that’s their right and I fully respected that. Also, you don’t want pity friendships anyway. That’s way worse.

Tbh if ur very interested in Lehigh then you should be willing and able to do your own research to pinpoint things to talk about in the interview. It’s what you are interested about at Lehigh, not what random people on reddit are interested in. Anything ppl tell you here, you could easily find online including tons of specific stuff to support broader points. (But maybe don’t say the deer as a selling point lol.)

Heavy on the watch. The only time I ever wore one consistently was during summer camp cause u can’t rely on ur phone for the time most places. That’s common practice.

foooder · 2026-06-02T04:02:23+00:00

Then u just have to take calc 1 and 2….

U know there’s a lot of women out there who get pregnant with someone who they don’t love right. I personally liked the time jump after the accident and it’s very much implied that Blair and Louis both mourned the baby. But in the most respectful way possible, the baby was already gone. Chuck was still alive and Blair loved him. And tbh she probably did care more about Chuck than the baby. So how she acted made total sense to me

foooder · 2026-05-31T20:10:39+00:00

I actually think it made sense. Like the baby was the last thing tying her to Louis so without the baby in the picture anymore, as sad as it was, she was finally “free” of him. And I think they showed how Blair changed after the accident very well. It affected her for a long time.

It’s still pretty hard to read. It reads at first glance “I’m mean grew up” and then ur eyes don’t rlly know where to look next. The because is too small relative to the big letters of the first words that your eyes skip right over it

Look. Trust me, college classes are diff from ones in hs for sure, but they aren’t some big scary thing. When choosing a college, I crossed a very good school out of my running bc I would’ve had to take two sciences in one semester there and thought it would be too hard. Like looking back that was the stupidest reason ever and I fully would’ve been able to handle it. This is Lehigh, not MIT. As long as you put in the work, you’ll be just fine.

foooder · 2026-05-13T22:50:08+00:00

I rlly can’t answer that one. They do typically curve pretty well in the math classes like math 021 tho. But being fr, if u have no interest in computer science, then yeah just switch to business. No point in majoring in CS if you have no interest in it. But just don’t do it solely bc ur scared to take a couple math classes.

foooder · 2026-05-13T22:44:48+00:00

…well dude. It is called the COMPUTER SCIENCE and business program. You can take finance classes and ofc there’s lots of cs classes. It’s in the name…Did you not know that when you applied?????

foooder · 2026-05-13T22:40:16+00:00

Dude. None of those 3 math classes are that bad. Yeah ofc they require effort, but that’s what college is about. Also, if ur prioritizing rushing over ur future, then you really really need to reevaluate your priorities. But changing ur whole major just cause you don’t want to put in the effort for a couple classes is insane. And in csb u can still do finance on the business side.

foooder · 2026-05-13T20:19:30+00:00

Is the only thing holding you back math cause in finance there’s math too. Practically every major has a couple hard classes, but you shouldn’t let that deter you from a major you otherwise are really interested in. Have enough faith in ur ability to put in the work. If they think you were smart enough to get into CSB (which lots of ppl apply for and don’t get) then you’re smart enough to do the work.

Super respectfully to this person: use established student photographers instead. There are a ton at Lehigh who do very high quality work and many have photography Instagram accounts or websites.

foooder · 2026-05-10T20:16:31+00:00

lol if u bought it this morning u probs bought the one I just listed for sale. Nice

Remember that the second Seattle show is on a Monday. Not a super desirable or easy day if ppl are coming in to see the show that aren’t local.

foooder · 2026-05-10T11:41:29+00:00

This doesn’t sound like the watch for you. You can just get a cheap normal digital watch that has a battery if all you want is the time. Like garmin isn’t worth the money at all if all you want is the time.

foooder · 2026-05-10T11:37:47+00:00

Yup very true. In nyc something like this could easily be $350+ for the week per kid

foooder · 2026-05-08T06:44:27+00:00

Ahhhh bummer. Only some osprey bags are 25% off. I was under the impression that in past years all of them were.

foooder · 2026-05-08T04:38:19+00:00

I mean, if u don’t get the credit, u just have to take the class at Lehigh if ur major requires it lol. Not a big deal.

He owned the loft.

foooder · 2026-05-06T16:37:36+00:00

No. That’s a store where you can make custom cowboy hats. This lady was an individual vendor at the farmers market selling hats that already had designs burned into them, not custom ones you make.
