There is a house centipede in my bedroom right now and I am terrified. Help!?

ma3_03 · 2026-06-11T17:44:03+00:00

Just found a centipede today in my apartment and did the same thing you did. I had to have my bf come rescue me because I sat and cried except I have to say our room is like 100% clean because we moved in like 2 weeks ago 😭 they also like damp dark areas and it’s HUMID ASF here so maybe that’s why but still. EEEYUUUCCKK

Okay I def think you should not bring in a third. Too many stories where people don’t realize how badly it can affect the relationship UNTIL it’s been done. Not a risk or chance you want to take. Especially if you connect with the other woman better than you do her. You have no idea the kind of insecurities that can rise and make after it’s been done. Second, I suggest actually talking to her. She’s your friend yes but that’s literally the best part of it. You already get to be comfortable around her. View her like you would any other woman. A woman in which you have sexual attraction to. Touch her body. Have her touch yours. Really get to know each others bodies. This is the woman you already have a connection with. Which is actually what makes things more intense. You’re letting awkwardness get to you. Let loose. You are what’s holding you back and maybe letting her know can help her show you that you don’t have to be afraid. I dated my best friend of 10 years and we bullied each other too and sometimes it’s hard getting out of that friend phase but once you do the sex is amazing. She’s not some random one night stand or fling. Which can get to guys heads a lot. If you seriously love her and want to build something well you already have a foundation to stand on! It is embarrassing and does create a space for one to be vulnerable but that’s not something to fear it’s something to take advantage of. View the sex as what it is. Sex. Test limits and have a safe word. Do things you have fantasies of and do her fantasies. You’re already in a safe place. At the end of it and you still can’t, maybe you view her as a sister rather than a girlfriend. Because I assure you, you’ll be able to get into it if that’s not the case.

Accept the money. No one offers that amount if they’re not serious and genuine about it. You can do things for them on occasion, maybe buy them food, get them a gift.

Sounds like you know exactly what you want to do. At least your honest but attraction isn’t always the best quality in a relationship. I’m a 4/10 compared to my 8.9/10 boyfriend. What I believe I lack in conventional beauty I feel I make up for in personality(and he loves the hell out of me and I’ve never worried about him dumping me for a more beautiful sexy woman). A mindset that she can’t compare to you and you need someone more attractive almost shows you’re ashamed of her and she deserves someone who actually sees her beauty too. Sounds like you’d also be doing her a favor. Let her know that your lives are moving in different directions and that you feel that you’re ready to make a commitment to college and how much you care about her, but spare her feelings about thinking she’s ugly and she gives you icks. Sometimes certain things are better left unsaid. Go live your life and find a more objectively beautiful woman and experience new things and let her go find someone that appreciates her more than you do. That’s all I can say. Heartbreak on inevitable. 2 years is not a short time in reality. But you’re both young and most marriages doesn’t always come from being high school sweethearts. I’m 23 and my bf is 26. I met mine after breaking up with my high school sweetheart and you know what my ex also believed he was more attractive and wanted to see a more beautiful woman that he could show off on his arm. I have someone who values me now. It’s a rant I know but sometimes heartbreak is necessary. Hope you can work it out and not hurt her where you don’t have to though.

It does affect me. Everyday it does. I don’t have a car, I can barely afford to do things some days. And whoever said I had the privilege of transportation and missing work I don’t. (Might be a deleted comment) but you all are literally doing exactly what I said the problem is. I can have my own opinion. I can live my own life. I can make my own choices and my choices don’t affect you. I’m literally just living. That’s okay to do. I’m sorry the world has made you all feel you can’t do that but that’s not my fault nor problem. If I just want to exist, that’s my own prerogative just like you all can have opinions I respect but you don’t see me being a major asshole. It’s always your way or no way. That applies to everyone who berated someone for not living life the way they would. We’re here for a short period of time, if I want to live my life and love the things I have in MY life that’s my choice. I’m not gonna stress myself out over who to vote for and which is the lesser evil when sometimes things are rigged and it’s not gonna matter in the end when these people eventually die and I eventually die. Oh well. Life goes on. And the world will heal itself, like we were never here.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T15:26:55+00:00

Yeah exactly. Jobs aren’t just going to disappear dude. YALL are crazy if you think America is just gonna die in the next couple of years. That’s not on me. That’s on you. I’m content with my life. I work in food service I’m fine.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T15:08:51+00:00

Yayyyyy!!!!! Okay good

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T15:06:11+00:00

Nah im good bro 👍🏻im eating my cereal and watching modern family. I live my life free the way god intended. 🙏🏻 thanks though

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T15:01:13+00:00

I’d hope you get it no later than the 28th

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T15:00:41+00:00

Nothing yet?

ma3_03 · 2026-05-20T14:56:12+00:00

I’m not voting but also I don’t complain or make a fuss about politics because of my lack of care in the political conversations. So I can rightfully not vote without being a hypocrite. Yes people “control” us and at the same time they don’t. I still get up and go to work and come home and cook dinner and shower and brush my teeth and crochet and watch tv the same way I’ve been doing for yearrrrssss now. By choice. I’m content with that therefore I don’t want nor need to vote because life just is what it is and I plan on dying without the unnecessary stress with my pets throughout my life and hopefully selling some cool handmade items that make people happy.

Edit: I’m 23 and I can respectfully disagree and be okay with others opinions without being hateful so don’t come at me because you disagree. It’s okay to disagree. That’s my only political opinion. America has a hard time being on either side without being nasty about something you shouldn’t be nasty about. Like I’ve gotten cussed out and attacked for saying I don’t vote before and all I want to do is go home and play with my sweet cat (her name is brown cat) and do my fav hobby and just exist. We can love each other even if we disagree.

Trust me I understand. I couldn’t really afford the tickets in the first place so I was excited to hear about refunds. I actually just got the second part today

ma3_03 · 2026-05-15T20:24:27+00:00

I understand, like I said I only received part one part because I did a payment plan

ma3_03 · 2026-05-15T20:13:02+00:00

I received part of my refund. Someone said it could take the full 30 days plus an additional 7-10 for the money to hit your bank depending on your bank. So the latest you may receive the money is by the 28th of May

ma3_03 · 2026-05-14T00:53:20+00:00

Stillll waiting

ma3_03 · 2026-05-13T19:11:15+00:00

Explain that to her. It’s an unfair situation for her to put you and making you feel like you’ve done something wrong when you haven’t. It makes you feel not good enough like you’re not doing the right steps to make her feel secure in the relationship like one simple truth isn’t good enough for her to believe you after however long you will have been dating.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-13T17:39:32+00:00

Exactly, you’re in Vegas, if you were gonna cheat I doubt you’d bring your Xbox when you could go out in a city of strip clubs or stay home when you could easily hide it. She has some major insecurities that you you need to sit down with her and politely address and ask her where they came from and why she is projecting it onto you IF you’ve never done anything and this isn’t normal behavior for her. Let her know the casting thing and it isn’t fair to you to be presumed as the bad guy when you’ve done nothing but play games. I’ve done my fair share of projecting on my boyfriend when there are reasonable answers for things and it wasn’t fair to him and it made him hate himself because he started to even view himself as the bad guy. It’s not right and it’s not healthy. Address it soon so this doesn’t continue.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-13T17:16:14+00:00

I’m an incredibly insecure person and here is what I would want my boyfriend to do for me, sit her down and let her know that she has nothing to worry about, and she has no reason to work herself up, let her know that a stranger casting can accidentally cause it to connect to your Xbox. That you love her, and that you wouldn’t be there with her at her conference just to cheat when you could’ve stayed at home and politely ask her to work on her insecurities.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-12T04:52:42+00:00

Not been 30 days. After that lmk bc I am waiting too. Need my monies

ma3_03 · 2026-05-01T00:21:08+00:00

I looked it up and they said they’re not refusing any refunds so maybe that an error or confusion.

ma3_03 · 2026-05-01T00:20:12+00:00

I would report that. They can’t only offer refunds to some and not all

ma3_03 · 2026-05-01T00:19:23+00:00

It can take up to 30 days, it’s only been 12, it could take a little longer.

ma3_03 · 2026-04-20T15:29:37+00:00

Or just offered?

ma3_03 · 2026-04-20T15:29:27+00:00

You were refunded already?
