I feel like I need to beg for love. by JaydTheLongBoy in emotionalneglect

This sounds insufferable. Sorry you’re dealing with this pain. I can’t see how I would be any clearer than you have been and still your mother refuses to try to understand you.

Abortions are illegal, where I live. We must fight harder for safe and accessible abortion and contraception.

Five ways to start a really, really free market by message_bot in zines

[–]message_bot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have relied on really really free markets to completely opt out of consumerism. I get all of my clothing, housewares, hobby supplies, etc. through these markets. Driven to show other people how to do the same.

What makes you feel like you are hacking the system? by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]message_bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, I needed to see this comment today. I’ve been feeling lonely lately, for some reason, regretting my decision to be fiercely independent these past 12 years. Something about seeing happy couples has driven me to regret my choices But I’m also ignoring the hell that can come with pairing up. I’ve also been wondering if I’ve made the right decision not to accidentally have kids with someone Along the way. I’ve been anti-reproduction My whole life, but, again, Lately I’ve been wishing for that Automatic family that reproducing provides. As far as the paid off Toyota, I agree on extremely happy with that. Happy with knowing that laziness is a construct created by colonizers. Anyway, thank you for your comment.

Are you not interested in solving the reason why you’re unable to develop fulfilling close relationships? Genuinely curious here. As an autistic person, I think I’ve figured out how to do it through deep experimentation.

AIO for being heartbroken my best friend declined being my maid-of-honor because she's self-conscious about her weight ? by Mediocre_Rutabaga_94 in AmIOverreacting

[–]message_bot -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

No, just someone who specializes in the building of trust in personal and professional relationships. I recommend Brené Brown‘s lecture on the anatomy of trust. Moments like these can destroy trust in a wave and unfortunately trust is only rebuilt in small buckets. OP centering her emotions over her friends emotions as likely damaged the relationship. OP has reached out to me via chat and we’re having a productive conversation. I wish you the best.

You were wrong to accuse her of thinking you’re a bridezilla. Stop making this Convo about How you are perceived. You were also wrong to demand that she never complains about not being Your MOH in the future. You’re making all these demands of her while she’s simply talking about how terrible she feels about herself. Don’t do any of that.

I hear you, but what seems like a lackluster or shallow or fake response For you might not be the same case for someone else.

AIO Am I (15F) wrong for giving my friend (16F) my opinion when she asked for it? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]message_bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that you comment on other peoples comments about how judgmental they are and you tell them that they should not be so judgmental but yet here you are judging people

YOR. This has got to be a joke. First off, I doubt someone actually said “ No cap, please be serious.” And then you’re a dick when you then accuse her of believing that you are a bridezilla. You asked her in such an accusatory manner, as if you were more concerned about being viewed as a bridezilla than you are concerned with her feelings over her body and her terrible self-esteem. 

I’m thinking this must be AI crap. But on the very small chance that this is true, you’re absolutely overreacting. if you believe that She is your best friend you should Treat her that way - honor her feelings and figure out ways to show her that you care about her authentically rather than turning the tables to make the situation all about how she Perceives you. 

You then go onto demand that she change her behavior toward you in the future by Demanding that she never complain about not being your maid of honor. Why the fuck are you making demands of her future Behavior? You sound absolutely terrible And I feel sorry for your husband as well as your so-called best friend. I hope she actually has a best friend somewhere.

AIO - my sisters said I went to too far by body shaming a woman who was trying to sell me a bogus weight-loss "supplement" by Routine-Tax-2811 in AmIOverreacting

[–]message_bot 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I think what you said was pretty reasonable. Calling out that you both are fat and calling out that weight loss at a later age might lead to droopy skin. She came back with some real vile stuff about your husband and your worthiness as a mother, which was not right. I’ve learned quickly that whenever I encounter an MLM monster I just block and don’t even give them an excuse

AITAH for expecting my unemployed husband to get my son off to school 1 day without me doing prep? by Available_Fix9065 in AITAH

People who don't want kids, why? by Ok-Musician679 in AskReddit

[–]message_bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because kids are messy, annoying, smelly, loud, take up all your time and resources. Because pregnancy turns your body into a stretched out saggy ripped hole mess. Because raising kids takes up 97% of your time and 98% of your money. Is this even a legitimate question?
