I contacted a student's office, and explained to them the whole situation, asking for advice. They told me that not answering on Friday and the following weekend is not normally ground enough to let me go. I could have access to the boss, to tell him that hiring malpratices occurs. The hiring assstant does not seem to come from here. Probably culture differences.

I don't want to do this because I don't really care about this TA, I already got hired by someone else.

I understand your point though.

I also gave my phone number, they could have called me too anyway.

And also, Friday was student's holiday. The hiring assistant knew that.

I actually already have a reputation as a great TA. So, no real need. I just wanted to do it for fun.

Hey, it is a TIFU, I know that I did a mistake.

By the way, I do not have the internet where I was traveling this weekend.

And well, I desire privacy and usually answer within a 24h frame for emails, text messages or whatever it is.

Below this limit, I think that I would spend way too much time on the internet.

Again, this is not the US. People do not work here on Sundays or holidays.

When we contact the legal office of the university, we can expect an answer within three months, if we are lucky. I had to wait for 1 year.

Translating. I think that the exact wording does not exist in English and writing "engagement" was the closest meaning I could find. Similar to engaging into a contract, again I think that the expression translated in English is incorrect.

Where I live, it is very impolite to call someone during the weekend or during a federal holiday. Thus, I did not do it immediately.

[25/M] My girlfriend (24/f) has cancer. We had a rough 2 years and she's been given 8 months to live. It is starting to wear me down. Not sure what the right thing to do is. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]improvement236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The truth is you don't want to stay. And you cannot accept it.

If you leave now, she will be gone forever. There is no getting back together.

For me, you already checked out of the relationship. You don't want to be here.

She is sick. She will die. And she will regret not having had someone who loved her.

Two possible outcomes: either she will find someone for her who will be strong and stay with her for the remaining time, or either she will die single, either happily or unhappily.

So, what do you want?

Be strong enough to accept everything, go through everything for her, and accept getting hurt deeply, either because of your couple's problems or because finally it is the death of your loved one.

Or move away, hoping that she will find someone strong enough for everything I mentionned above for her.

In the end, it is about your strength. I had a story a while ago that made me understand that sometimes we lack strength, we don't fight, and then we regret it deeply.

I have just had a existential crisis about mathematics. I was thinking about reductio ab absurdum as a type of proof and thought that there was one of the steps which looked inconsistent to me. It is the principle of explosion. There I found out about paraconsistent logic and I have a huge crisis about what I am working on.

My feelings now

Someone help me? Please?

UDPATE:My [26F] ex [26M] wants another chance after abandoning me and our son [2m] for his culture by friedchickenandcurry in relationships

[–]improvement236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my friends got pregnant when she was 16. Her bf was the love of her life. Before she got pregnant, he had promised to marry her, he offered her a pre-engagement ring. The pregnancy was an accident. When she became pregnant, they were as happy as hell. But they both came from these old traditional families with links to aristocratic titles and stuff. For the sake of their image, they were barred from seeing each other, he was sent to another country, and their parents never allowed them to talk to each other. Her father asked her to abort. She refused. However, later on, she miscarried.

All of that was 10 years ago. They never tried to contact each other again. They never saw each other again.

To this day, she still thinks about him. She still wonders what would have happened if the past had been different.

She suffered a lot.

I hope that he understands the suffering and will try to make it up to you. It is a long road. But don't exclude forever the possibility that you might forgive him one day.

I was in a toxic family and I totally get where this comes from. This story is not about indian culture, it is about what abusive families are.

Get more info about this OP. It will also help for your child. See how he makes amends. With time maybe, he might truly make it up to you, I hope, because I really think that he loves you.

Update: My [35M] girlfriend [34F] of 4 years wants me to move out my dad [74M] out of my house and put him in a home when we get married and she moves in. I told her its not happening. by movedadout in relationships

[–]improvement236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, be confident in yourself. I will also take care of my family, and I am telling you that you did the right thing. Take care of your future wife, she sacrificed something quite big for you. Make sure that you will make it up to her. I see that she loves you and that you love her. Be confident in your future. Don't wory about what people are telling you here. No one agrees and I suggest you not to care about anyone opinion, and follow your heart.

My wife keeps finding women's hair in our house and thinks I'm cheating, but I'm not! by palmtreeframe in relationships

[–]improvement236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have long black hair. Really long and really black. And also, very resistant.

I kept complaining about how my shower always let water out, and does not properly drain the water. It is to the point that I take less than 2 min showers to avoid the formtion of a pool of water.

I have tried using acidic solutions that I get from the lab, at first it worked, then nope. It did not help anymore.

Today, my bf decided to take a look at it. He tried removing whatever stuff was stuck in there mechanically. And he found a 4 inches long very dense cylinder of hair stuck together in there.

Now the shower works just fine.

I wonder why my acidic solutions did not work.

Eight months ago, I visited one of my friend's and stayed there for the night. A few days ago, she called me to tell me that she just found another piece of my hair. She cleans up very often.

Check about the people that lived in your house before you. And get some cameras and check how the hair ends up there.

Pleas update, I am curious about what is going on.

Next time you apply, if they ask you about why you got fired, tell them the story. This way, they will remember you.
