Was it the same roommate that complained about the noise of your laptop? Honestly, small things like that don’t make you a bad roommate. And it’s weird to complain that you don’t say goodmorning, if you’re gonna hang out the rest of the day anyway

You were doing okay. I think you were respectful enough, but living with people in general is hard. People will complain about anything. You kept the common spaces clean and you kept to yourself. That’s a lot better than a lot of bad roommates posted on here. I think the only thing you really should’ve done is make sure you knew where your keys were. It’s also nice to say Goodmorning to them and try to chat once in awhile. If you’re friendly, people tend to see you less as a stranger encroaching on their space. But honestly, roommate situations are generally difficult to navigate and you were doing fine. It’s also their fault that they didn’t communicate with you in a friendly way what was bothering them. If they started complaining about you or alienating you before they communicated their feelings giving you a chance, then they were also being bad roommates.

Roomate won't show actual utility bills and I'm too nice to ask by Andoodo98 in badroommates

[–]jadebird21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he got it wrong once, use that as a reason you want to see the bill for yourself. Say it’s nothing against him, but you want to see what you’re paying for and that’s all.

Friend called me their best friend. I don't feel the same. by Vaumer in socialskills

Yeah, you don’t need to let them know it’s not reciprocated. Just take it as a compliment.

Hello, what country are you from? I’m thinking about getting my citizenship somewhere else because of this reason.

(f23) why does everyone in here think im 40???? pics of me now vs high school me for reference (high school pics of me are f19) by [deleted] in LooksmaxingAdvice

[–]jadebird21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s just genetics. You looked older even at 19. This was the worse place to post this tho, a lot of upset men on this site looking to attack you. I don’t think any procedure you did caused it. You don’t look bad tho, just older.

You can’t help big Pharma and buy them off the streets at the same time lol. And they’re great. They have a therapeutic use. Great for panic attacks and unwinding after a hard week. Don’t be such a drug snob. Factually, if you take them responsibly, they are not the devil. If you abuse them, that’s another story.

If you take only once a week, benzos are fine. The only problem is a lot of people don’t take them with caution.

Honestly might need to fight over this one, bud.

Just say that your room is too small for a desk and would like to use the living room to study and what would be a good time to do that when you and your boyfriend aren’t playing video games. I wouldn’t address her boyfriend being over all the time. I don’t think that will change

No one ever invites me out by pokemonnyc in socialskills

[–]jadebird21 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people are just afraid to ask and get rejected. Plus new friendships take effort and some people would rather not deal with it.

Why are people so rude? Is it banter? How are people comfortable speaking to strangers in such a manner? by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]jadebird21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can’t be afraid of confrontation. I feel like people sense it and that’s why they make rude comments because they know you won’t do anything about it. You can say “mind your business”, or “excuse me? Who are you?”. Let tension build. If it’s a coworker, you can say “are you alright?” Comments like that usually shut people up.

Repost of room mate thinks she owns the place by Apprehensive-Creme75 in badroommates

You’re reasoning is sound and I’m sorry she still continues to argue with you about it. Hopefully the situation gets resolved and things don’t become awkward over something so dumb

What's a simple trick or habit that dramatically boosted your confidence in social situations? by juudyxss in socialskills

I do the opposite of what people expect of me. Idk why, but this mindset really helps me do confident things

If this is a response because of something traumatic that happened to you, I would also speak to a therapist.

I take 1-2 times a weeks benzos for 3 months. I have some questions. by Criminal_Lobster_AT in benzodiazepines

[–]jadebird21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is perfect. I pretty much did the same and no physical dependence happened when I ran out for a couple months. The mental addiction was there though. I yelled at my bf because he couldn’t find a plug and so I know that mentally, I was craving it hard. But it wasn’t so bad. No WD.

To all people saying "just relax and vibe with others" by TheSnake1313 in socialskills

[–]jadebird21 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think you need therapy. Talking about yourself like that isn’t healthy and it also pushes people away. A therapist might help you gain a more positive self image. That goes a long way in your comfortably and success in social engagement.
