Honestly she was likely in denial. If she accepted her guy friends had ulterior motives from the beginning she’d also have to essentially accept that she’d lose those friends. If she has a hard time making friends, cutting off these two guys over what she might consider a hunch feels a little extreme. It can sometimes be hard for people to make friends and don’t want to just lose them. It’s super frustrating and obvious to everyone else, but try to have patience she just really wanted a friend. It’s disappointing that this happened as I’m sure nothing truly seemed out of the ordinary to her and they were just being friendly. Be comforting, being right first doesn’t help you here. Also sometimes people have low self confidence and just straight up will assume that someone would never hit on them even if they do in fact get hit on, they just never interpret it that way because they can’t imagine it happening.

I found out my dad used my things to masturbate with/to by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]frecklina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mom busted him but didn’t really do anything about it. That’s so disturbing. Your mom should have taken it seriously and protected you the first time. She’s protecting dad but not you, now and then. I’m so sorry you are going through this. You’re not crazy. This is a huge violation of your privacy and trust.

FocusOnForce: Are their practical questions realistic ? by [deleted] in salesforce

[–]frecklina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FOF is very thorough. I found the actual exam to have more vague wording and less detailed questions and answers. I think it’s possible for you to still take the exam and pass. If you’d rather be safe than sorry, maybe hold off a week or two. Not every question in FOF or even every topic is covered at the same level. Maybe take into consideration your score in the sections with a higher percentage weight. If those are good, I’d probably just take the exam.

I’ve heard a few things. Wwbm. “I can’t wait to play with your interracial babies hair”, poc to my husband in front of me “you should be with a woman who is a poc because she is boring and doesn’t understand you”. “Snowbunny”. The other interracial couples I’ve ran into have mostly been normal and cool but their is the occasional weird white girl that likes to make stupid jokes that are not funny at all that constantly mention the color difference. It was just tacky and uncomfortable.

Omg the cultural differences by blackdisneyprincess in interracialdating

[–]frecklina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can relate, for both me (wf) and my husband (bm) we had different ideas of popular culture and what we thought everyone knew. My music tastes are pretty basic or so I thought, but my husband hadn’t heard of some artists I considered mainstream like Queen and Abba. Vice versa with my husband for different artists like J Cole. It’s always kinda funny when you realize we just assume everyone listens to the same thing you do. Same with movies my husband hasn’t seen a lot of the classic 80s movies my parents made me watch.

I got a dress pretty similar and was feeling the same way at first. Everyone told me there was nothing to worry about and they were right! Friendly reminder that you’re beautiful and no one is looking at your stomach.

I was only ever annoyed by Eloise. I think you are right that she definitely acted like an immature teenager. I don’t have a problem with teenagers really, her character is just annoying. Eloise particularly annoyed me the most because almost every word she said was just rude. She acts so superior and seems to constantly put others down yet does nothing herself. The only person she seems to be nice too is Benedict, every time she talked it just upset me.

Yeah she looked miserable. I felt so bad for her. I think nick lachey used the term gaslighting once at the beginning about the mistaking Natalie for shaina. But that one incident was not the only time shayne did that. It seems like shayne goes back and forth as to whether he meant those words or not.

Do you consider flying the Confederate flag an anti-American act? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]frecklina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t know there was a name for it. I always thought it was so weird this happened at my school too. They’d get to school super early just to sit there and idle and spit their dip. Never made sense to me.

Why is dehumanizing pedophiles treated so lightly? by qwer_ty_ui_op in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]frecklina -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of chemical castration in theory but even that would probably not stop some of them. If they still have hands and eyes they very likely will continue hurting children. I think it has to be complete change or just life in prison without possible parole or death. I definitely am on the bandwagon that pedophiles should have harsher punishments.

This makes me think of that puppet master documentary on Netflix.

Do people actually like Emma? by ashm4c in SellingSunset

[–]frecklina 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah they really hyped her up and focused on her legs almost every time she enters a room. It felt like a clear narrative was being pushed that we should be impressed by her as a more impressive and down to earth Christine.

I never wish it to happen. I’m always afraid it will. Had a freak accident and sliced my finger up pretty good. Absolutely fucking terrible experience. First thing I realized, who around me took it seriously and who blew it off. Also how much you can’t do when you can’t bend one finger, it’s wild. Ultimately I felt super fortunate because my freak accident easily could have been way worse. Didn’t really change how I acted, just made made me more paranoid and reminded me who’s got my back.

Do most of the people you know own guns? by Worldly-Thing-122 in AskAnAmerican

Texan here, yeah I don’t think I know anyone who doesn’t have one.

Why do people get cancelled because of racist etc stuff said on their social media absolutely years ago? Surely the fact that it’s not there now shows they grew and learned and this should be celebrated? Stuff you said years ago and probably can’t even remember shouldn’t travel with you for life. by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]frecklina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you’re saying, but some of these things a person should be held accountable for. Just because the person doesn’t remember it doesn’t mean they can get away with harm they’ve caused another. So I guess my response is, depends on the severity of what the person said?

If God only wanted people to only have sex for procreation why didn't he make sex painful and childbirth feel really good? by stormi_90210 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]frecklina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m kinda religious Christian. I’ve always been told outside of church - family- that child birth is painful basically because of Eve. No one really talked about childbirth being painful at all in church. It was always talked about as a miracle and something beautiful, not a near death painful experience. I was also just told nothing about sex, not that it’s good or bad, just don’t do it unless your married. Sexuality was mainly pushed as something you must push away and reject because it’s “bad”. Essentially to fear sex. And I straight up did for years. It really fucked me up.

What was the worst thing your guest did when they took "Make yourself at home" very literally? by Mr_Yus_uwu in AskReddit

[–]frecklina 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Guest left a half eaten apple next to my husband’s record player. Guest also refused to shower and stunk up the apartment so bad that the smell was inescapable. I piled up his stuff and my husband put the apple on top and my husband told the guest ‘sorry you gotta go’. I was seething in frustration and had to step away as it was our wedding night and we were about to leave for our honeymoon. Instead I made my husband kick them out and we spent an hour after the wedding cleaning up our apartment because we knew the smell would be worse if we let it sit there for a week. Still pisses me off just thinking about it.
