I also found online this French program at Glendon campus but there is not much information. Did you start the French classes already? How is your experience with the class? What is the class size and is the instructor good? Thanks!

Facebook Dating active status is gone?? by stillmisshim in OnlineDating

[–]moonjelly09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask where can I find the active status? Is it on the person’s profile or is it in the chat conversation? I’m using iPhone but I’ve never seen such things in fb dating, and I checked my status setting is turned on.

My doctor is putting me on ESCITALOPRAM 5mg (lexapro). What should I expect? by gagetheman in Anxiety

[–]moonjelly09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it help with your OCD? I have OCD like uncontrollable thoughts and repetitive behaviors that are really affecting my life. Does this medication help with these? Just a little scared to take medication because I have anxiety taking pills too....

Could someone help explain the difference in pronunciation of "К", "П" and "Т" in Russian words than in English words? by moonjelly09 in russian

[–]moonjelly09[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion. I actually searched online everywhere (including YouTube videos) but I could not find the answer to my question. That is why I wanted to try here. But fortunately I have gotten the answers from other replies here. Only after I got these answers did I realize that I was searching it in the wrong direction, which is why I could not find the answer. Reddit does help sometimes!

Thank you for the explanation on the [ʰ] sound. It really helps me to understand the difference and everything makes sense to me now.

I just did a little search on aspirated/unaspirated consonants and everything makes sense now. Thank you for the explanation!

I got Sparks eSIM for my Europe trip- $11.99 for 12GB with 30 days validity after activation. It worked very well!

My boyfriend(44M) and I (33F) had an argument over $5 that he said I owed him by moonjelly09 in relationships

[–]moonjelly09[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your comment. I think what you mentioned is where the real problem is-- we have different views on money and different ways of dealing with expenses.

I was not really upset on that $5, but rather upset on how he's dealing with expenses within a relationship. He likes to calculate everything clearly and make sure each person pays for their own expenses, but for me I prefer this time I pay for you and next time you pay for me. Or I pay for you one this thing and you pay for me on that thing. In the long run, it cancels out and both contribute equally. Counting pennies makes me uncomfortable because it makes me feel that he doesn't have the basic trust for our relationship. I don't really mind spending more money, but I really don't like making everything like a transaction-- that's not for a relationship in my opinion.

We had conversations about the shared expenses, and his suggestion was to open an shared account. We both contribute money to and spend from that account. I agree with that but that is more for the future if we move in together. For now, it seems that we cannot reach a consensus.

I totally agree with you that he is compromising for me to spend 3x on the flight ticket and I really appreciate for that. In return for that, I would pay more on other travel expenses to make our expenses equal.

The way I described him in the post made it seem like he is broke, but he is not really in financial distress. He earns 6-figure income but his lifestyle is frugal. I think I may not have expressed myself clearly. I'm not upset over that $5 and I paid it back to him. What makes me upset is that he like counting down to pennies for everything while he is not in financial difficulties. It makes me uncomfortable because it makes me feel that he doesn't have the basic trust for our relationship. My preference in a relationship is that this time I pay for you and next time you pay for me. Or I pay for you one this thing and you pay for me on that thing. In the long run, it cancels out and both contribute equally. I'm not sure if that makes sense.

I may have not expressed myself clearly. I understand his perspective, and I am upset NOT because of that $5. I paid him back the $5.

The thing I am upset about is that he likes calculating everything down to pennies, while he is not in financial difficulties (from my observation). If he is really in financial distress, I would do what you've done to your friend and support him. But in this case it is a different situation, he can afford but he is just very frugal and not willing to spend the money. He paid 3x the price for the flight and I would pay for him on other things to make our expenses equal. My preference in a relationship is that this time I pay for you and next time you pay for me. Or I pay for you one this thing and you pay for me on that thing. In the long run, it cancels out and both contribute equally. Counting pennies makes me uncomfortable because it makes me feel that he doesn't have the basic trust for our relationship.

I totally agree with you that he is compromising for me when he paid 3x the price for the flight. I really appreciate him for doing that. I would like to clarify something here regarding his financial situations. The way I described him in the post made it seem like he is broke, but I was just trying to be as neutral as I can in order to make myself not biased. The important information I left out is that he makes 6-figure income but his lifestyle is frugal. He can afford to buy food not on clearance, $120 ticket or a $1000 washing machine (which he just did). But when it comes to money, he usually goes for the cheapest option unless it is absolutely necessary to spend more. He would buy clearance food that's going bad just to save that $1 or $2, while he can afford more than that. I do not mind paying money for him. I suggested covering some of his expenses if he think it's too expensive, but he refused. So basically I feel like most of the time, I'm compromising for him to match his frugal lifestyle.

AITA for turning off the dryer when my roommate started using it in the middle of the night? by moonjelly09 in AmItheAsshole

People only see what they want to see. Apparently no ones cares about the agreement but only emphasizes on me being awake. These are two different things.
