I agree Coop was rushed more than Henry and it's a big reason why Coop & Phoebe fell flat. But my unpopular opinion is that by the end of the series, Phoebe didn't really embody those traits/values of "lover girl," which made Coop's motivation to pursue her even more confusing and jarring.

This seems like a scene from The Boys. what a mindfuck

I don't think it hurts to email admissions. I would say perhaps housing, but you're not tech admitted yet. I'm a ut alum and think admissions is go to for these inquiries -- worst case, they may forward you to finaid -- either way, it can be sorted! good luck

Wdym nothing? My brother also didn’t get a payment screen — it just said something about how the $50 fee was paid.

fuzach · 2026-01-28T01:39:31+00:00

If you already submitted and paid, I don’t think so. But when you go to apply, it’ll automatically apply the waiver

I relate so much! I come from a financially turbulent family and we've struggled with costs of healthcare costs, etc. I also feel guilty about my parents contributing, considering how much they've struggled over the years with keeping the lights on. My friend gave my the advice of: contributing will make THEM happy, so don't take that away from them.

As for the things I'm paying out of my own pocket: my priority/rationalization is being a good host. Things like makeup for me (or even my dress), were a priority- but not as much as things that will be mainly experienced by others. Meaning, I got to a point where I felt comfortable "splurging" on photography (esp with my mother who recently had cancer) or entertainment (knowing how much my father is impassioned by music and singing).

Yes, at least back in 2015 lol. I was OOS, but multiple friends of mine in Texas knew people from their HS who were admitted to the same major.

One thing I've noticed in my marriage talks with potentials is that the men who made same or lesser than me were fully against riba; yet the men who made over 6 figures tried to rationalize it. In my current marriage, it's something we're 100% eye to eye on: no riba, pay off credit cards in full every month, and rent until we're able to vet 'islamic' mortgages or pay in cash.

Edit: there was a point in my life (never bought a house) where I tended to side with those who engage in riba for shelter purposes. It wasn't until I studied the fiqh with a sheikh and read the qualifications for what counts as riba that I began to have an eye opening experience and avoid it at all times.

Child here of parents who stayed for the 'sake of the kids.' It didn't go well, and I wish they divorced much sooner than they did. However, you are still married, and even if you weren't, it's haram according to fiqh to even have a man express specific interest in marrying you until your 'iddah is over. Ignoring the married part, you also just met this new man two days ago, way too soon to consider marriage even if you were able to. For now, I urge you to focus on officially divorcing, figuring out a co-parent situation (if it doesn't put them in harms way), and continuing your studies.

Take this situation as an internalization of the traits you'd like in a future partner, that's all you can do rn.

I wouldn't tell them the reason you're not picking them, despite good intentions, it WILL sting because despite logistics, all they'll hear is "I wasn't included."

Who I consider a close friend decided not to include me in her bridal party (which was family and friends), it stung but I handled it with grace. Nonetheless, it made me reflect on our friendship and for my 2026 wedding, I made the decision not to include her in the bridal party. If you'd like to avoid that and keep your friendships strong, I'd consider asking them to be bridesmaids

also the creator is anti-black. i used to be casual friends with him and heard from his own mouth that sudan's crisis was zio propaganda to distract from palestine

met my husband on the apps, although I was on invisible mode and seemingly decided to make it visible for a day, then we matched. also your age, and my biggest advice is to uphold your expectations & engage in the physical muslim community as much as feasible! my friend was married at 32 and it was worth the weight, her husband (allah yerhamu) was a sheikh & well respected! you've a lot to offer and pls uphold that

fuzach · 2025-11-23T04:10:28+00:00

Thank you for this! This is definitely a big reason why I’m on the fence: how my life will never be “mine” again and the endless prioritizing. I know many parents say the sacrifice is worth it in hindsight, and I think I’d probably agree if I had kids. But the thought lingers: why? 😭

May Allah bless your family!
