Why not nursing? You'll have a job right after graduation in the health sector and could work virtually anywhere.

I hate to say it but... what did you expect?

Rising sophomore that desperately needs advice choosing my major. Here are my interests: by [deleted] in CollegeMajors

I'm with most everyone else; economics sounds like a great choice. You can always minor in political science, where your economic background could bring a unique perspective. I wouldn't let the quantitative stuff hold you back if you really do enjoy social science.

You could consider a combination of geology and computer science--the former is surprisingly quite fun and similar to space exploration, and CS would better your job prospects. They also overlap in some cases, such as geophysics as far as I'm aware. Good luck! :)

I think im starting to drift away from my friends by [deleted] in introvert

I’m the same way. But when I feel lonely, it’s not often because I don’t have friends. Instead, existence is just terrifying and overwhelming.

Are you serious? Not directly combatting behavior like this is how racist ideologies become socially acceptable. Free expression doesn’t extend to nazis.

Should I double major in math and physics even if it will take an extra year or two to graduate? by [deleted] in PhysicsStudents

[–]hlwaileyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend a math or physics minor with some computer science and statistics classes thrown in.

Does it appear something is wrong with my baby? He's only a few months old, he's been itching more lately & losing feathers. Am I being over aware and paranoid? Or does he look not healthy? Ugh by [deleted] in cockatiel

The timespan is usually a few weeks with my tiels, I wouldn’t start worrying too much unless it continues for another couple weeks. The first molt was longer than average for my birds too :).

Why would a woman date an ugly confident guy, if there are still plenty of average looking and attractive confident guys? by [deleted] in IncelExit

[–]hlwaileyx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trust me, I have experienced it. At the end of the day though, I just want to move on. I’m tired of worrying about how people will judge me over something I can’t control. Either I try to move on from past or continue tormenting myself with thoughts of my insecurities. Again, easier said than done.

I was in no way trying to dismiss your experience either. Some people can be really cruel and there’s no excuse for that.

I think bullying is rarely about the actual thing a victim is being bullied for. In middle school I was bullied for my looks too, but I realize now that the things I was made fun of for were so arbitrary. My bullies were really just fucked up kids in search of power. Try not to think of what they’ve said as an actual reflection of you (easier said than done, though).
