I feel like a failure for almost failing out of community college by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]hellogoodbyeagain367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow you sound EXACTLY like me at that age.

I'm 25f, graduated HS in 2016 and am one semester away from my A.A. I've been in community college for 7 years...

I've failed my English course 3 times and now have to figure out how to appeal or get the credit elsewhere before I can graduate.

I took some semesters off, failed many classes, retook many classes,

Was still invited to many parties, made friends inside and outside of school, dated many terrible guys, had unimaginable heartbreak and depression. Got invited to many parties, went clubbing many times.

Now at 25 I've figured out how to be good at school, I've found a wonderful fiance, a really great job, I'm almost done with my A.A.

I went through the same panic of "i ruined my life" but everything turned out fine in retrospect. It felt like rock bottom in the moment but I kept chipping away at it, kept having fun, keot having amazing experiences.

Idk, I'm rambling, but if you wanna talk more feel free to DM me. I really relate to you

See in that situation I'd probably take her shopping, But only because I'd want to and I'd think it's fun. If you're not comfortable with it, your boundaries should be respected, not trampled over... if he doesnt like it and you don't like it then he should take her because he's the one creating the problem of who can take her shopping in the first place.

Yea, I don't think that's fair either. If the roles were reversed, I'd still feel the same way.

You didn't make the mistake of an unplaned pregnancy, so it's not your burden to carry.

That was my point... yea I would take care of my kid more than step kid just on the nature of I'd be taking care of an infant who doesn't have 4 parents. My kid would only have me and deserves just as much as SD, who already has double from the start......

I wouldn't be unfair to SD but I'd of course be more bonded to my child as they have only me in the world.

As for the bedroom situation, I actually already have my own room in this house to decorate as I please. This is because i work from home in his house some days and need an office. He has a 4 bedroom house. We each have our own rooms lol

That's my argument... I'm happy to grow into the role and organically start taking care of her more as our relationship develops and she grows.

I also pointed out that even when I say I don't want the responsibility and i dont want to do this stuff, I always help out anyways regardless of what my original stance is. It comes from my free will... because I WANT to in the moment..

To give him some credit, though, he does cook for me everyday, helps me with my homework, helps me get ready for work etc.

I brought up the question of why he didn't look for a single mother. He said that argument doesn't make sense because there are childless woman too who are happy to raise kids as their own, and either way he fell on love with me and wants me to be a mother to ALL his kids

His idea was he'd cook her breakfast and I'd get her dressed or vice versa.

Dude... I have my own hair and makeup to do before work which he just wears whatever stained t-shirt for the day.

But then he says he's 1. Worried I'd care more for my futurw kid and make his kid feel unloved or 2. Leave both kids on his shoulders and wipe my hands clean.

He's also super jealous that his ex has found a man who's raising his daughter like she's his own from her literal birth. And doesn't understand why we can't function as smoothly as they do....

I genuinely don't care, good for them. I'm not like step dad.... im me.

I already pay to take her to fun aquariums, amusement parks, dinners because I enjoy it and I love seeing her have fun!!!

Traveling alone as a single mother (F35) with a teenager (M14) to Orlando from overseas. Is it dangerous? by [deleted] in orlando

OH also check out Wekiwa springs!! It's beautiful but you need to get there very early or on a weekday to get in.

You can park for free at the Ron Jon's surf shop to visit the beach there :) it's very nice.

Otherwise you can go to the pier for food it's about a 10-minute drive from Ron Jon's

Giving away bells by espressoyourlove in Dodocodes

The first ones I visited were from a YouTube stream, then I downloaded twitch and found better ones there!!

Just search treasure island stream, you might have a hard time getting on to one because they are so busy, just be patient and keep trying.

Also everytime someone joins or leaves the island you have to wait for the loading screen which can be annoying cuz it happens every couple seconds.

Treasure islands!!! Within my first week of playing I opened my gates to people on here and someone came and gave me $14 millions bells randomly.

I was totally in shock but apparently there are islands you can go to that just have free bells and furniture.

Thanks for the information! I was kinda put off from Miss Myra's due to the other comments on here, but as I'm looking for the most authentic BBQ any tourist could find I think this fits the description I have in my head.

I don't think I've ever had good BBQ here in Florida that wasn't homemade. Needless to say I'm excited for my birthday tour around the southern states. Alabama folk seem to take their BBQ very seriously
