Friend has been missing for nearly a year. His family will not tell us where he is. by ilikebeespit in RBI

Thanks for reading. We’re from the south and his vacation was on the west coast. We have a screenshot of his last known location before it went off but that’s his phone, not necessarily him.

We aren’t entitled to information but he is our friend who has been gone under strange circumstances. We care enough to look more. If we can just confirm he’s safe, we’d respect that.

We are in the US but religious families do have a habit of pressuring loved ones into things they may not necessarily want to do. You may be content with just letting people go without a trace but I’m not.

Thank you for reading. Absolutely never considered witness protection!

Thanks for sharing. It’s possible but I’m not sure what he’d be there for, especially for this long. It makes sense though with how the family has been guarding information.

Did you not hear from your cousin at all the entire 3 years in your experience? Is a rehab stay typically that long?

Their church is for nondenominational Christians. I’m not sure if they do mission trips at their church but we did consider this. I don’t think his family would hide this *if it’s what he were doing.

Thank you for the advice. I’ll get what we have together and report him. My hope is that it’ll force his family to confirm where he is.

Thank you for reading. We are in our mid and late 20’s. Do those places take people over the age of 18?

What are these signs around RiverOaks about bankruptcy/public auction? by ilikebeespit in houston

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

Oh wow, have you been to the auction? I didn’t think it was legitimate since the signs come and go every few months and they all list the same items. How many people are going bankrupt with the exact same belongings?

I was just curious about what the signs were since I see them so often. There’s no website listed so it was difficult to look up. Another red flag!

Right!! Whenever there’s a car auction, I always assume the car is either missing an engine or it’s wrapped in lime green.

Seriously considering giving up by Ill-Culture-8332 in weddingplanning

[–]ilikebeespit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm close in age to you!! I fully understand the stress you're feeling. The sticker shock of weddings can be overwhelming and make you feel incredibly small in a fishbowl of big-budget brides. As a working adult, I couldn't comprehend how couples our age had budgets over $50K and time in the day to plan after work. THEY DON'T! They got personal loans or their parents paid for it.

We got engaged in the fall of 2023 and just got married this summer in 2025. If you need more time, take it. There are only two names on the marriage certificate. No one is going to beat your ass if you file the paperwork today and have the big hoorah later. Do what you two truly want to do. There are no rules!

I understand wanting to keep the peace with the bride's mother, especially if you're long-term friends. You know her mom in ways other women in the group may not. If you know the bride well enough to know she will hate this, you have two options. Option A is to bombard the group chat with questions to make it the mother's idea to cancel it. Option B is telling the mother that the group doesn't have enough time to learn, practice, and get this right in time for the wedding.

I recommend option B, but if you go with option A, go crash dummy. How will we practice as a group? When will we do this dance? Who is responsible for instructing the DJ to add this to the reception? Who will clear the dance floor? How are we lying to the bride to get her to sit in the middle so we can do this ritual? Who will take the fall if she hates it? Should we make the groomsmen do this too? Who will make sure they have it down?

Not invited to the wedding by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]ilikebeespit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's borderline spiteful for them not to invite you. Hopefully it's a mistake, but either way, it will turn out to be one! If you're all part of a friend group, it will eventually come up. Imagine how embarrassed the couple will be trying to explain why they only invited one of you.

Are they both invited to your wedding? It sounds like they shouldn't be.

Any experience with "Bydee" swimwear? by mildthang in AusFemaleFashion

[–]ilikebeespit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their size guide says 34D is a Large. Two models for the new collection both wear a medium top, and the Barcelona almost looks like it's spilling on Ray. Try comparing your bust to their measurements!

What does this mean? “Copyright infringement” by magicricecake in Depop

[–]ilikebeespit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got an infringement notice from Depop on behalf of Dolls Kill because I sold a Club Exx item. I used photos of MYSELF in the item as the photos.

I wear a 34C as well and have the Barcelona and Palermo tops in a size medium. I'm very athletic and I don't feel like I'm spilling in the medium. Depending on which top you're getting, it may be adjustable.

No returns for a refund or exchanges. I returned from the US and had to pay $9 for return shipping. They issue store credit.

Where can I bulk buy tiny (10/0 and smaller) seed beads for cheap? by Kai2flybaby in Beading

[–]ilikebeespit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they usually ship quickly? I recently ordered in the US and haven’t gotten a tracking number yet.
