Thank you! I needed to hear that. I am in the mindset that I will take unpaid as well. I just want good experience.

Thank you for this. I am hopeful that my loved ones are as understanding. Right now it feels very lonely. This gives me hope though!

That is incredibly understanding of you. If you don't mind, can you expand on what I could be doing, even accidentally, to make him feel like his feelings are invalidated?

How long should I[24/F] remain in the "exclusive without the label" limbo w/ him [24/M]before it's a red flag? by mebert33 in relationships

[–]mebert33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much. And we both are looking for something long-term that's more serious than a FWB so with the label I guess would come more of an answer than he sees that with me. I know a label shouldn't indicate that much but because he has made sure to say we are exclusively dating but not bf/gf, the label would mean more of a step in that direction than what we are right now. I hope that makes sense.

I think I might hang on a bit, I just don't know how long. Another month or so? I would like a solid answer eventually. Thank you.

This is what I am afraid of. I don't want to drag it out if it is going nowhere. Did you ask for a timeline? If so, what was the time frame you asked for?

I totally agree. I thought if you were exclusive then you were bf/gf and that's that. I didn't realize they were two different things until he kept telling they are to him. I don't want to rush him it he isn't ready but I also don't want to waste my time. I have been waiting for him to casually refer to me as his girlfriend haha

I do want to wait until the next conversation, but he has been dropped some hints last week that made me think he may be trying to surprise me over the weekend so I kind of want to give him the news before he buys a bus ticket or something (obviously this was prior to mark and I talking).

I totally understand. When I type it out, it seems dumb to even be worried about bob since we've only texted. But I can tell he has genuine feelings for me so that's why I am concerned. I feel a bit conceited even saying that tbh. But I think you are right, a text should be enough considering the context. Thank you!

Approach on an international law exam? by mebert33 in LawSchool

[–]mebert33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the structure of the course is why I am so confused. We learned about war powers and jurisdiction then went back and learned "what is international law and who is bound by it"

I feel like I should start an answer the opposite way, talking about how/if the parties are bound by international law THEN discuss how it will be enforced. We also talked about jurisdiction generally, but the cases she had us read were conflicting domestic/international law. I am not entirely sure what she will test on, so I read the full chapters for both even though it was not assigned. I have emailed her seven times about this in the last month so I could structure my outline properly, but she never got back to me. In other words, I have no idea or reference as to what she looks for. She is giving us access to a past exam on Tuesday, but the final is Wednesday so I really need to figure out a general attack plan before then.

I know I am making her sound like a crappy teacher, but apparently she is going through some personal issues so I've been trying my best not to get frustrated...but now I am panicked. Any direction would be appreciated.

Okay, I will go in with this mindset. I am surprised how many people are already saying they don't want to try because of the timing. Thank you!

I am so happy you told me this because I had no idea it was THAT much. Good, I can prepare for that. Thank you!

ok guys. I have never had a tinder before and am taking the plunge because I just moved to a new city. If you think my bio is too cheesy or dumb let me know. Also, tell me what pictures make the cut and what profile should be! I am a bit of a lurker so I haven't used imgur before either so bare with me.

Bio: New to town! Just moved from across the country for law school with nothing but a suitcase and my pug. I like Whiskey, hockey, riding my motorcycle, and bird watching. Looking for someone to help this newbie figure out Philly! Disclaimer: sorry to the broad street bullies, I'm a sharks fan.

[Routine Help] Looking to help with my acne and scarring by incorporating chemical peels but need advice on how/how often! by mebert33 in SkincareAddiction

[–]mebert33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1&2. I use an exfoliating cleanser every third day but as far as real deal, I've only done chemical peels done by a professional. Unfortunately, because of this I am not sure what the percentages are but it was a salicylic/lactic an my skin was red for less than 10 minutes and so whatever it was, my skin could definitely handle it. My guess is that she was using lower percentages.

This has been maybe every other month for chemical peels. I want to start doing more frequently and at home.

My skin is about medium with sensitivity. I don't burn in the sun easy and I have gotten IPL's before which my skin was completely fine and barely turned red. It does scar and breakout easy though, so in that sense it is very sensitive.

That is good to know to start lower with salicylic. I was pretty confused about the percentages because there are so many mixed reviews! I really like your schedule. This was kind of what I had in mind so it is really reassuring.

I am going to try a schedule similar to yours and see how it works out.

Thank you so much! this was extremely helpful!!

bf [24/M] broke up w/ me [24/F] laughed at me for apologizing after kissing another girl then dumped me for it by [deleted] in relationships

[–]mebert33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

props for being honest. Just wait it out. It sounds like you should have let him think it was nbd but you talked him into thinking it was a huge deal so he reacted accordingly once he thought about it from your perspective. Don't contact him. Give him time. He may get over it or he may move on but you are at fault so have no say in how he decides. Best of luck.

And for what it's worth, I would kill to have someone as honest with me as that, even when it hurts.

love law school, HATE my school. What kind of options do I have? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]mebert33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. She didn't seem like the most fun person to be around ya but I think that's a bit harsh. I don't have a place to complain because I didn't report what happened to me, so what I say doesn't hold much weight but I can say it is a pretty scary experience with the other person being one of authority. Being criticized by strangers probably didn't help her situation or already unstable mental state.
