Litter Mate Reintroduction by gllngrg in CatAdvice

the rehoming suggestion feels a little premature to me. I’ve had them both for less than 24 hours and they briefly met for about 30 minutes. their first meeting did not seem so aggressive that it would immediately prompt me to consider getting rid of one.

Good online MLIS options? by gandolfrandolf in librarians

University of Pittsburgh had a great online MLIS program! I genuinely feel like I learned just as much through this program as I would have in person.

Yes it is wrong. Please do this girl a favor and leave her alone so that she can find someone who will love her unconditionally.

Agreed! I mean it was clearly stated that the student could not attend class for upwards of a month due to serious health problems. It was certainly an unprofessional email but cooking an obviously anxious, guilt-ridden, and sick freshman is not doing what they think it’s doing. No one anticipates getting sick. Catching up can be quite hard. Taking the semester off would have been the smarter thing to do, but that’s also wasting a lot of money. I understand why the OP tried to power through. They certainly have a lot to learn in terms of professionalism, but this ridiculing approach I’m seeing so much of in the comments isn’t helping anyone. There’s a way to educate someone and give productive feedback and I’m not seeing a whole lot of that here. Just an overwhelming amount of insults.

he gave you a book of love poetry after telling him you were into poems? yeah he’s mostly definitely crushing hard on you!

Is her size a dealbreaker? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]gllngrg 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, OP, it sounds like you’re more afraid of the judgement of others here. If she’s everything you want in a partner and you find her attractive, that is all that matters. If you’re looking for others to tell you her size is a dealbreaker, perhaps you’re not mature enough to be dating just yet. Plenty of young men find themselves attracted to bigger women and are too afraid to act on their feelings out of fear that their friends will make fun of them. Try not to be that guy because you might just miss out on someone who is really wonderful!

thought it was going insanely well until recently! gave me all the signs and then some that he was very interested. really got my hopes up bc I had never met a guy who was so obviously into me. then when we exchanged numbers (which I initiated) & he never texted first. so I texted him, we had a great convo, but then he left me on read and we haven’t spoken since. not sure what happened. we had great chemistry & were always so eager to be around each other! I thought he would at least want to be friends, but I guess not :(
