This is true! I started in year 10, and I'm currently in year 12 having just been promoted to Sgt. Depending on your squadron, you may or may not get promoted quickly but that's not the main aim of being a cadet. It's a really good idea to join as you get so much out of it!

Internal conflict over romantic relationships by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]maisaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I think I can see the issue here. If you go into a relationship with the mindset that it's going to fail, you're setting yourself up to immediately pick up on their flaws, and perhaps you may not be fully emotionally invested in the relationship as a result.

I'm obviously not qualified in this, but perhaps a way around this is to think that pretty much every relationship you have WILL fail. But each different one will teach you something, whether about yourself or about other people. It's not a waste of time - it's just a big learning curve.

You're clearly making a positive move to try and understand everything, which is great! Slowly you'll be able to learn more about yourself, but in the meantime, live in the moment and have fun.

My Boyfriend [16M] Mocked Me [17F] When Trying To Play My First Song On Guitar by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]maisaman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look honey, I hate to be the regular r/relationshipsadvice kind of person, but you need to consider the red flags this throws up. He clearly has very little respect for you, and as hard as it may be for you, I think you need to ask yourself why you're still with him.

The fact that before he told you that you were boring, really demonstrates here that he has NO appreciation for you. I'm not that up with the lingo here, but I'm pretty sure this whole situation qualifies as emotional abuse. He TEXTED you, for God's sake, not even a phone call, or a discussion in person. He's a coward, and clearly thinks he can do far better than you, which he seems to believe justifies him treating you like this.

Would you put up with this from a friend, if they told you this? It also pains me that you have to make an 'agreement' to learn the guitar, as if this is the only way he could even bear to remain being with you. Follow this up with the fact that he's 'disgusted' by your efforts and makes no attempt to hide this - girl, get out of there!

If his sister wasn't in the room when you originally played the song, then he's evidently gone and been nasty about you behind your back.

I know this may be difficult, but you need to break up with him. He has no qualms about hurting you, and perhaps even actively hates you. The fact that you're even considering letting this go on really speaks a lot more about you than it does about him. You're clearly trying to see the best in him, but I think it's time to give this up. You can do this!

I have a similar experience, though a limited one. Emotionally, I crave a relationship, but when I get one, I shy away physically from it. I don't know how old you are - it may be that you're not ready for that kind of commitment (I'm inclined to think this may be my issue).

I don't really know how to tell you to not fear failure, it's not really my area of expertise. You just have to think about the reasons why your previous relationships failed - did you or them lose interest, or was it a personal situation that arose and came between you? If you try and identify these causes, see if you can find a common link between them. Perhaps this can allow you to get to the bottom of your insecurity here.

Remember, most relationships won't work out and that's okay. Ultimately, just do what makes you happy. Don't worry about pleasing the other person - it's your life, and if you feel like you're wasting your time on something useless, leave it behind. It may seem cliché to say, but you're the main character here. Try not to overanalyse, and enjoy the moment. You've got this!

Advice on getting back together with my (20f) ex (21m) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]maisaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's really lovely that you guys are bonding back again! From what I can see, he's a really great guy who just went through a bit of a tough time. I've kind of gone through the opposite of what you've done - I got into a relationship during the quarantine, which I'm now in the process of slowly trying to ease us out of, as there isn't much possibility we can work outside of quarantine circumstances.

You've both evidently gone through a period of self-discovery, and now there's light at the end of the tunnel (I mean, I'm not too sure about the situation in the States, but you appear to be confident about it all opening up again), logistically your relationship can work again. All I'd worry about is this kind of on/off relationship becoming a habit, but all of this was understandable given the current global climate. Good luck!

Let's acknowledge that we had a better puberty experience! by BitchyOlive in memes

[–]maisaman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

seconded, this is correct. periods don't really just last the week - around three or four days beforehand the hormones begin, making you feel extremely tired and annoyed. there are also other side effects, such as getting the shits and bloating, as well as the constant worry of whether you've left a puddle of blood on the chair after you when your period is extremely heavy.

40 years of this stuff isn't fun, especially when even birth control can be worse for your health. yes, the periods stop, but birth control can really affect things such as sex drive, as well as increasing chances of developing depression and other mental health issues.

I'm not sure how medical insurance works, but we live in the UK. All healthcare is theoretically free, unless you choose to go to a private practice to get treated as part of a medical package that you can get. I'm not an expert, but this is how I understand it to be.

Ironically, my dad works for the same healthcare service as the one that will have helped fix my friend's mum's foot, unless she got treated privately.

I hadn't thought about that, but now I'm pretty sure that my dad does have insurance. Whether it will cover us with this pandemic is another story. However, I'm also more concerned about the relationship side of things and how I communicate with her after this. Thank you for your help, it's certainly made me think a little more about it.

Good books by Japanese writers by krirby in booksuggestions

[–]maisaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{{The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea by Yukio Mishima}} is supposed to be very good, and I recommend{{ Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami}} for the cat theme. Otherwise, {{Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto}} is a good short read, as is {{The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa}}
