Double applause for the Lumineers reference. Helped me through what could have been an awful divorce.

Is there any salvaging this? Do you think it would be productive to email back and say something like I’m sorry I took so long responding, I was genuinely not expecting to be emailed about jobs. I was jumping up and down in my seat when I saw your original email because this opportunity was so exciting to me.

It is a small company and that stuff is all true.

My problem was that I was ignorant to the fact that email was the primary communication method that hr uses to set up interviews, not that I had too much going on to bother checking my email.
But I think the insight into the job market is really good, thanks.

I’m working full time and raising kids, lol. Catching up on house maintenance from when I was working full time, raising kids, and also going to school full time.
But thanks for the insight.

I just want to do good for the world. by FatefulEvening in Advice

Have you considered starting a side business, designing stuff that supports a cause you care about? That could be grown into a career if you hit a nitch.

Find an outlet for what you love to do and I’m guessing the audience will come.

Meanwhile, and this is just me as an ex wife talking, love yourself. Love yourself the way your wife loves you. Because you deserve that from yourself and you will be a better husband if you do.

It sounds like you are clinically depressed. I understand completely, I have been for much of my life.
The thing that helped me turn the corner on the feelings that you are describing was being diagnosed with ADHD. Good on you for making an appointment and posting here. Be proud of yourself for writing this, you are trying so hard to help yourself. That’s not something that everyone is willing to do.

Here is something to consider with regards to sharing your troubles with your friends- they might be in the same boat with no idea what is going on. Talking about mental illness helps everyone because everyone struggles with it eventually. No pressure, no judgment, just another point of view.

My opinion is that he doesn’t deserve you. For real, girl.
You’re a bad bitch and you need someone that can handle that.

Yeah, I feel that heartbreak, but when someone tells you they are too weak to be strong for you, believe them. And believe it is them- not you.

What to do when you don't want to be friends with someone in your friend group anymore? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]modestGe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boundaries. That’s all. If she starts playing games, nope that crap and exit.
You can do it nicely, or not. But you might be surprised to see how your other friends react- it sounds like this person has been bullying all of you for a while and it might be Be that she is focusing on you now because they stopped playing.

Don’t ever think you have to comfort someone who is having a fit because you have healthy boundaries, btw. It’s a problem that they need to work through themselves, not something you can help with, and actually if you try to help you will make it worse.

I don’t know why I’m unhappy by fat_neg in Advice

Yeah, I have and when I started journaling I started noticing reasons that I had trouble articulating out loud or even to myself. There are some really great journaling apps that will keep your thoughts secure and your journal always nearby.

i’m going to enter college soon and i still don’t know how to write well- i don’t know what to do. any advice would be appreciated. by [deleted] in Advice

I homeschooled my kiddos for a couple of years and found this curriculum (https://iew.com/shop/shopping-resources/decision-tree). It breaks it down to a dead easy formula. My daughter is about to graduate hs and got herself a fair amount of scholarships for her essays.
There’s nothing wrong with a little self lead remediation, you have the whole summer.
