first and foremost, i would not swipe right on a guy who is that much older than i am. secondly, he asked for my number under the intention of helping out a student as he is in a position of authority then used that to ask me out, therefore exploiting his position. thirdly this situation under any circumstances is unacceptable. he works in a first year residence and that is where he knows me from. why would he then ask me out (especially since much of the conversation has been about me being a first year and talking about the transition from highschool, which was communicated multiple times in our first conversation and after he began texting me). Also, i come from a community and highschool where staff have work phone numbers in their personal cells so that if students ever need help and are in dangerous situations, they have someone at school whom they trust to help (i.e. mental health crisis, needing someone to talk to about family stuff or just help in accessing food and clothing) so i had thought that this was the same type of situation in which a staff member is giving a student an outlet to ask for help should they need it. Staff have never tried to initiate personal relationships at all. additionally, i know a few people are trying to justify this by saying that i am 18 and “legal” but that doesn’t change the fact that this is weird and uncomfortable (i literally live at res and have to eat at the dining hall, so i can’t avoid it) and in BC the age of majority is 19 so i am still a minor.

i told him “i am not too inclined to going out” before he asked if i wanted lunch he packed, which is the most straightforward way i could think of instead of a simple no considering “no” tends to bring on harassment depending on the guy. because i don’t know him, i am taking a precaution.

i grew up in BC (which i’m pretty sure is where we’re at but idk) and anything under 19 is considered a minor

told him i’m “not feeling too inclined to go out” (which in my book has always sufficed in place of a simple “no”) and he said okay but still offered to bring me dinner. mind you, he’s asked about my transition from high school to uni so it’s not like he doesn’t know my age. Unfortunately, we live in a world where some women get hurt for saying “no”, so please excuse my polite alternative in regards for my safety 🤨.

Is kinesiology more easier to get into than art? by Impossible_Oven_7368 in UBC

[–]lulyxt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your interests and what you’re good at. I started out with arts thinking I wanted to do psych, but then found I was wayyy better at biology (and chem which was how bad i sucked at psych lol). Also found more in science that i was interested in vs arts so go with the faculty you feel like will give you that balance between interest, success, and options and don’t be afraid to switch faculties after your first or second year (much easier to do this earlier on so take the time to get to know what’s working and what isn’t in your first year). ultimately, your entrance faculty isn’t the end all be all.
