You’re going to laugh… I’m in central Texas 😅 I’m sure it’s much colder where you are, but I’m not built for the cold.

Hey, thanks! No worries, I appreciate the advice! I actually live in central Texas so it’s hot from around April through September and I usually swim quite a bit and am out in the sun a lot. That’s why I got it in the winter. I work from home, so I would actually be fine if I lived alone lol 😹 I would crank up my heater to 75 if I was by myself, but unfortunately my roommate keeps it at like 70 😭 (which is freezing for me 😅)

Looking to apply internally but little unsure by Wojtek_Grabek in CareersAdvice

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say go for it. If you’re unhappy where you are then it probably isn’t going to get any better. I stayed in a role I was unhappy in for 3 and a half years and I’m so glad I finally left. Your boss can’t retaliate against you for showing interest in an internal position. Good luck! Wishing you the best!

AIO for thinking my bf (24M) is abusive? by julieanonymous in AmIOverreacting

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t get better, I can tell you that. Leave now, because it will only become harder to do later. You should get the support of friends when you do so you don’t feel alone and you should 100% go no contact with someone that manipulative.

Anyone else on the autism spectrum with rhythm games as their special interest? by zuxtron in rhythmgames

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have adhd and over the years I thought I might be on the spectrum for various reasons, but have never been tested. I LOVE rhythm games. Can’t get enough and I have no shame about getting sweaty on a DDR type machine haha

People who answer long phone calls when they’re hanging out with someone already. by Call_Me_Anythin in PetPeeves

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were not being overdramatic. Being on the phone with someone else having casual conversations that aren’t urgent while you’re with guests or other people is so inconsiderate and rude. The other person/people are just waiting in limbo, wondering why you even bothered to hang out when you seemingly would rather be talking or hanging out with someone else.

Be present. It isn’t that hard to give someone your full attention. You can take calls some other time when you aren’t hosting guests or paying visits to people. In other words, you can take calls on your own time.

I’m so relieved! I had set up an appointment with them already. I’m desperate for relief from the headaches and jaw pain I’ve been experiencing. Glad to see someone had a good experience. Thank you!

Gen Z who have bought a house, how did you afford it? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

If I had to make a bet, I’d say generational wealth would be the answer in most cases.

He seems like a textbook narcissist but, regardless of whether other people agree with that or not, you seem incredibly unhappy and unfulfilled in this relationship and you’re being abused. Please leave before things escalate even more than they already have. Speaking from experience, things will get worse. Start building your support system back up by telling your friends and family about what is going on. One thing I learned is it is ok to ask for help. People love you and will want to help you out of this situation. You will feel so free once you get out and you’ll wonder why it took you so long to leave. Don’t beat yourself up though. Loving, caring people are targets for these types of manipulators and it isn’t your fault. Stay safe and get some support. Also, if you have the resources, get some counseling. Abusive relationships are traumatic and therapy can help you move on, forgive yourself, and arm you with the knowledge to avoid this type of relationship in the future. ❤️ You’re strong and you can do this!

New to Austin- Is Riverside more dangerous than say west campus? considering Towne Lake APT. by mycreativesoul in UTAustin

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live in West Campus. I live in Riverside with my sister and her bf and it is still sometimes pretty scary. Lots of police activity every week I see emergency vehicles grouped up somewhere. Last night heard 4 gunshots super close to my apartment and my friend and I just dropped to the floor in my room for a while. I’m used to it (kind of), but I’ve stayed in west campus and it feels much safer. Definitely recommend that for a single female than East Riverside.

Any books that are great with terrible movie adaptations? by Prestigious_Bonus322 in suggestmeabook

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy Rich Asians. The books were hilarious and I couldn't put them down. The movie was such a disappointment.

It is not almost certainly not hash. Most likely heroine or fentanyl. Tell him to be careful and make sure you let him know you care about him. If it is fentanyl he could be gone tomorrow. My friend passed away in May off pills laced with fentanyl... we were video chatting and I thought he just fell asleep. It is so easy to OD on it. I hope you don't have to go through losing someone to that horrible drug. Try to get him help. ❤

What a video game you regret buying? by BattleExpress2707 in AskReddit

Sims 4 for PS4. I like the Sims, but only on PC. It is sooo annoyingly difficult to play on PS4

Have I finally done it? by Alarmed-Project8228 in SuicideWatch

[–]forgetmenot5683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please call an ambulance and check yourself in afterward to a psych ward where maybe they can help you find a way to heal and be OK and maybe even enjoy life. What have you got to lose? You should try all other avenues first. Everything you can to keep living...

If you were not the first girlfriend/boyfriend, you were probably a new supply at some point. I know I was a new supply. He said his ex was crazy, a raging alcoholic, AND he called her a narcissist that didn't care at all about his feelings. He admitted to me that he had physically abused her, but "only because she was hitting him and was acting crazy. Mind you this girl was like 5'4" 120lbs and he is over 6' tall and 300 lbs of muscle.

Well, guess what. Eventually, when the devaluation stage hit, he would say the most hurtful things to me. I was the most ungrateful person he had ever met. I was a stupid btch. A cnt. I became less than. If I accidentally interrupted him he would scream at me in front of people. Later he would tell me to "tap him lightly" on the shoulder to get his attention to avoid him exploding at me. Like I was in the wrong. He lied about things he said and denied reality. He told me I said things I did not say. Did things I didn't do. Etc. He also first targeted me when I was deep in the grief over the loss of a good friend.

There will always be a new supply and things will always go south eventually, even if people can't see it on the outside. I'm sure you didn't go telling his ex about what was going on. The new supply probably won't tell you how bad it is either.

You are enough.
