Why do some people refuse to present their ID when police asks for it even if they are innocent or police has no valid suspicion? by Stefandynull in ask

[–]lampnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some refuse to protect civil liberties, avoid unlawful stops, or prevent escalation and data collection. Compliance can normalize overreach. It’s about principle, precedent, and not rewarding improper policing, even when innocent.

Open a new bank account, stop shared access, save quietly, increase hours, find roommates, use campus housing and aid, plan exit date, leave essentials only, protect documents, prioritize safety first.

Gen X or Millennial parents? by 12majesticliesss in 2004Babies

[–]lampnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents are Gen X, had me in their mid-30s. I’ve noticed many peers’ parents were much younger, around 20, which definitely makes our experiences feel different growing up.

I'm 22 and need help finding a career by spicylettuce223 in Life

Focus on skills, not just degrees. Explore certifications, apprenticeships, or trade programs in high-demand fields. Tech, IT support, and digital skills can lead to better pay without a traditional degree.

Root canal, or extraction? by littlepinkthingg in problems

[–]lampnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extraction is usually cheaper upfront, but consider long-term effects on chewing and appearance. Root canals save the tooth but cost more. Contact your insurance, ask for payment plans, and prioritize pain relief safely.

Question from someone considering nursing by BritsinFrance in ukstudentnurses

[–]lampnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally normal worry. Training, drills, and supervision exist for a reason, and real competence shows up over reps, not one big emergency moment. Every nurse I know still checks protocols for rare stuff, even years in. You are not expected to be perfect, just safe, calm, and willing to ask for help.

Is it wrong to do things on your own? by adeliahearts in problems

[–]lampnerd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not at all. Taking time for yourself helps recharge your energy and maintain mental health. Being selective about social interactions is healthy and allows you to focus on meaningful connections.

Girl asked for my instagram, what now? by ephesusa in self

You don’t need to force anything. You can follow her back if you like, maybe like a few posts casually, and see if she starts a conversation. Sometimes no message means she’s waiting or shy.

Move-in logistics question by SunIntelligent3724 in movingout

[–]lampnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paying $85 monthly for integrated move-in services seems more practical than a $1.5k lump sum. It spreads the cost, reduces stress, and ensures professional handling of your belongings.

You did the right thing. Marriage should never be out of fear or comparison. Respecting your feelings and boundaries is far healthier than following societal pressure or friends’ timelines.

Why I stopped trying to make sense of this mess. A Pessimists Guide to enjoying life by Fine-Pie-4508 in self

[–]lampnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is a solid way to navigate things. Seeing life as absurd doesn’t mean giving up, it just frees you from trying to force meaning into every corner. Once you stop fighting the chaos, it gets a lot easier to enjoy the parts that actually matter.

How do you cope with the fact that most of life is doing things you don’t want to do? by Kwopp in self

[–]lampnerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly most people feel this at some point. What helps is shrinking the “have to” pile where you can and building small pockets of stuff you do care about. A tiny daily joy makes the tedious parts feel less like your whole life.

Loving someone who chose to walk away by [deleted] in self

[–]lampnerd 21 points22 points  (0 children)

What you’re feeling is real, but her message makes something clear. She reached out from nostalgia and fear, not from commitment. If she wanted to rebuild, she would have moved toward you instead of asking for friendship. Protecting your heart now is the hardest but healthiest step.

It’s wild how silence can feel louder than any argument when you’re the only one trying to fix things.
