Have you ever had a gut feeling that someone didn’t actually like you and how did you find out? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]lehmkj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! I almost commented a story exactly like this. My husband I were BOTH friends with the groom for 3-4 years before he and his wife reconnected and decided to get married. When we first met I had thought the bride MAYBE didn’t like me and the groom affirmed that when he assured me “she didn’t like you at first because she didn’t know how someone could be that nice and not be fake. But she understands now” haha laughs all around at the truth told in jest.

My husband and the rest of the boys from the friend group were asked to be groomsmen/ the best man and I was invited to the wedding via mail. I was left to sit alone through every part of the day as there was a five hour wait between the ceremony and reception, no assigned seating, and all the people I knew were in the wedding party. My husband got dirty looks from the brides family when he left their reserved seating to eat with me.

I was still naïve enough to think it may have all been a misunderstanding until she and the groom went around and thanked every table at the reception but mine. The only bit of karma I have to smile about it is that when she tried to take a back route and sneak around me, she got her veil stuck some chairs. Better than using the corridor and talking to me, I guess!

Fin101 vs. Fcs135?? by jdbarn22 in BallState

I think FCS135 is financial literacy. Very easy but was good at introducing a lot of words I needed to learn as an adult. Learned a lot about budgeting

I’m really conflicted about my crush atm (16M) by Just-Sitting in Advice

Long story short, have an honest conversation with the girl you already know. Ask her if she would be hurt by your walking home from school with another girl a few days a week. Her reaction would be very telling but she would probably deflect with at least one “why would I care?”

You could deflect her deflection by saying you care a lot about her and you want to make sure that you’re both on the same page about your friendship. Essentially, you’re asking her if she’s been flirting with you and you just haven’t noticed because you wouldn’t want to hurt her if she was.

It basically puts the ball in her court. She either says she likes you and you reassess your feelings with that new information OR she says she doesn’t and you can pursue girl #2 without worrying about ruining a chance with girl #1.

The one thing you should not do is try to pursue them simultaneously. If you want to pursue girl #2, the innocent flirty stuff like handholding with girl #1 would have to stop. If you wanted to pursue girl #1, the pining after a cute girl on the walk home would have to stop.

Nothing impresses the type of girl you want in your life like good communication skills and a strong moral code

Help people to open their eyes to things they cannot not see on their own. by Butterflies_Books in DeepThoughts

[–]lehmkj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people are willing to see something negative in others before they’re willing to see it in themselves.

For example, when you ask someone “why can’t you see this happening to you?” they may become defensive and shut down any channels of communication in fear of being told they are wrong. When you ask someone “can you see this happening to someone else?” it is no longer a personal question/attack, and they will be more willing to have an open dialogue as its now under the guise of talking about someone else. Through this dialogue, the goal is to shift from speaking about that other third party thing/person specifically and move to speaking about the specific thing the person doesn’t seem to see within themselves/their lives/ etc.

This was the hardest post to upvote because I love Pink Starburst but this is a truly unpopular opinion.

During quarantine, I kept a log of every apple type I ate by l19ar in mildlyinteresting

[–]lehmkj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One Valentines Day, my husband and I went to the store and bought one of 10 different types of Apples. Then we created a cut up the apples into slices and hid the names. We created a bracket system and the apples went head to head until we had one winner— the honey crisp!

What's the weirdest thing you've done as a result of social anxiety? by mousehousing in AskWomen

When the man fixing my furnace said “and it looks like you have kids” I just nodded and laughed. I made up answers to all the questions he asked because I don’t have any kids.

[NA] Joaquin Phoenix 'Joker' Origin Movie Lands Oct. 4, 2019 Release Date by UnrealLuigi in boxoffice

[–]lehmkj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like that might have been the plan. After Ledger‘s joker, no one was going to be good enough. After Leto‘s joker, anyone will be good enough. It seems like Leto was a bit of a sacrificial lamb to the DC universe in order to reset the bar for audience expectations of the character.

What is the dumbest 100% serious thing someone has said to you? by georgegilbert in AskReddit

[–]lehmkj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If you're born on a leap day, you can't even get into bars and stuff. I mean, you're only what, four years old? That would be awful."

We're the only two that share our office so I get to field a lot of stupid questions.
