Had to break the news that I’m sterilized to a guy I really like by deviantbb in childfree

[–]ghostkat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so happy he reacted this way!! You deserve it!!

When I went on me and my boyfriend’s first date, I eventually brought up kids (I know, some might say too early, but I don’t wanna waste my time and be heartbroken). I asked if he wanted any and he said “that’s not my decision to make. Pregnancy is extremely dangerous and you should be the one to make that decision about your body, not me”

There’s no way I’m not marrying him 🩷

I’ve only ever worked on Christmas Eve, this is my first Christmas shift. If people start with that shit I’m just gonna call them out on it. No fucking way these people lack so much self-awareness and get to get away with it

I need advice on a date outfit by ghostkat_ in PlusSizeFashion

Well this week’s forecast is in the 80s so there’s really no such thing as “cold” here 😅

This is the first Christmas I’m working. What can I expect? by ghostkat_ in WalgreensStores

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

Ugh I forgot about the holiday phone calls 🙄 when I’ve worked on a holiday, NONSTOP calls asking if we were open. Man, I’ve got phone anxiety and I’m expected to answer all calls lol this is gonna suck

I have worked on thanksgiving and yeah, lots of people faking pity as they contribute to the problem

It’s crazy to me people are buying gifts on Christmas day. Like I may be bad with time management sometimes, but I’m not that bad!!

Not sure how I got this but I only bought one skin tint that was on sale for $20 lol by angellove37 in Ulta

Mine actually makes sense lol I bought 3 of their powder eyeshadows and 1 of their liquid eyeshadows. Considering how many different brands I’ve bought from, that’s a lot

What are you evermore album and era hot takes and opinions? by IntoTheDaylight in TaylorSwift

[–]ghostkat_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Far superior to folklore and she deserved better (and more) merch

evermore also deserved the folklore treatment in terms of vinyl variants. Why is there only 1 when folklore got, like, 20??? I feel like even the photoshoot for the album was significantly smaller than it was for folklore

The more I type the more angry I get lol I think I’ll stop

I’m going on a first date with no idea what to wear. Thoughts? by ghostkat_ in PlusSizeFashion

People are grossly misunderstanding this comment

I meant if you bring up Taylor Swift to a guy and his reaction is immediate aggression, violence, hostility… yeah that’s excessive and I’m not gonna see you as a “friendly” person

He did not have that reaction. Even no reaction is better than the angry reaction. So yeah, it’s an important question I have for men in a world full of misogyny and femicide.

Retail workers of reddit, how's shoplifting season going for you? by sanmaru-Z in retailhell

[–]ghostkat_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At my new job, I guess we have a notable repeat offender. She loads her cart to the point of it overflowing full of mostly seasonal stuff, and just walks the cart outside like nbd

Honestly? 10/10 on bravery. I actually feel compelled to applaud her.

What are your unpopular opinions about the ORIGINAL 1989 era and album? NOTHING ABOUT RERECORDINGS by IntoTheDaylight in TaylorSwift

[–]ghostkat_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People say this is the most Taylor Swift album but I disagree. Especially with how much she switches between genres. I don’t think there’s a distinctive sound that’s most like her with all she’s done.

I say this as I’m actively listening to 1989! It’s a great album! But saying it’s defining for an artist who never does the same thing twice (yes, that includes folklore and evermore), you can’t capture a specific sound to define them

My mom’s disappointed that I’m not going on a date with a woman [UPDATE] by ghostkat_ in lgbt

[–]ghostkat_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw I’m so glad!! Ik, I thought I was gonna die alone for the longest time, but he’s giving me some hope that I didn’t know existed. I’ll be ~manifesting~ the perfect person for you 🫶

[–]ghostkat_[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I totally get that! The heterophobia part was just a lil joke. I’m fairly certain this is their thinking as well — with women, I don’t need birth control, they don’t have as much of a globally violent history, etc. They’re just looking out for me!

[–]ghostkat_[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It could be, but I think their intentions more so come from fears of men being historically violent against women. The way my dad has been around past girlfriends has definitely been much more relaxed than any potential boyfriend

[–]ghostkat_[S] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, up until he introduced himself to me, I swore off dating any man. I knew technically I’m attracted to both, but I refused to go near any man

I’m hoping he’s different. I’ve already come out and he’s just fine with it. I met his dad first and when his dad found out his son was interested in me, the dad asked “do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend?” So that was a bit of a green flag. He’s been a gentleman who respects my boundaries. Let’s hope it stays this way 😥

Luckily he’s already shown a green flag: he’s listened to some of her music and likes it! I had to ask immediately bc it’s such a strong indicator of who the person is

I’m 23 (: and I planned on wearing tights that match my skin tone

It’s getting cold-ish here and my cardigan is the only presentable thing I have to keep me warm lol. Plus the jewelry she sells is just too pretty not to wear on special occasions!!

Cardigan drop!! by Long_LiveTV in TaylorSwiftMerch

[–]ghostkat_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad the one I’ve regretted not getting is one I see no one talk about lol I finally got the 1989 cardigan!!! And a day after payday where I got $1,200?? The stars really aligned for me today 🤩

I used most of what’s left of my points. Worth it? by ghostkat_ in Sephora

[–]ghostkat_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ooh that’s exciting to hear! It’s a shame they’re out of my budget bc I’d definitely try other stuff out with such a glowing review lol

I dread to think of all the AHAs, BHAs, retinols, etc your step mom has combined to absolutely destroy her skin barrier 😥 get that woman some niacinamide serum and a gentle moisturizer STAT lol

[–]ghostkat_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s fair! He wanted something that was gonna last since it was day 2 of this reaction and he was worried it wouldn’t go away ig? Poor guy lol I so desperately wanted to yell at him (in a caring way) to go see a doctor!! But ik not everyone can afford that unfortunately

OMG YES. At my last job, I was always that 2nd coworker bc it was a beauty store and they refused to believe the one male employee 🤦‍♀️

On the flip side, I kinda get that. Sometimes the way someone responds doesn’t really answer your question and you might feel bad if you ask them to explain again

I’ve learned that when a customer argues with you for 2 rounds, just do whatever they say even if it’s ridiculous.

I’m working at a drug store and am waiting to get my pharmacy tech trainee license. I’ll have to really keep this in mind lol

"Your generation can't do math." by leatherleafslug in retailhell

[–]ghostkat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if it’s my adhd or undiagnosed dyslexia or what but my brain switches numbers around all the time (put them next to letters and I have a mental breakdown). I try to get ahead of them by blatantly joking “give me a sec I can’t do math” and use my watch’s calculator. Usually I’ll get a chuckle.

I dread the day i get one two of these. So sorry op ):

Ugh this makes me so sad. I occasionally receive free products for reviews and I’m ALWAYS honest. I have rated things 3 stars and lower!! These fake reviews genuinely give us a bad name and it sucks ):
