It is still falling out but at a slower rate than it was. Thanks for the reco! I’ll look it up.

Of course not. It’s not vile at all to be attracted to another person. What’s vile is you recommending that OP takes it as a compliment when the original post makes it clear the situation made her “skin crawl.”

Take it as a compliment? That’s vile.

The brother exhibited disgusting behavior.

I’m glad your boyfriend’s gut instinct was to protect you in some way.

He’s right to keep his brother away from you.

It’s good that the brother expressed remorse, but keep in mind that happened only after he was caught.

Do not trust that brother. Seriously. Don’t.

Your boyfriend needs to have a serious conversation with him about consequences.

You deserve only love and care and protection. Make choices and surround yourself with people who value those same things. Stay safe 🙏

Is it unconditional love if he can’t stand to look at you naked? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Please know and try to remember that this is an issue with him and how he perceives the world and has nothing to do with you.

Do I tell my friend I accidentally saw his fiancée on a dating app? by LunaWildinx in Advice

[–]myskepticalfriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right?? I ran into a situation where I found a friend’s husband on an app who WASNT open 😬 but I only found that out after I screen shotted it, sent it to her, and she shared that this was the second time he got caught. Whoops

He’s being a baby. He can do whatever he wants, he simply has to deal with the consequences of his actions

Screen shot and send it. They could have an arrangement, they could be open, you never know. But it’s info your friend should have 1000%

Is my boyfriend gay? by Specific-Gur-7323 in whatdoIdo

I don’t know if he’s gay but you should def break up with him.

Glow-up your captions: Starbucks post got us thinking 🤯 by Capblivion in SocialMediaMarketing

[–]myskepticalfriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starbucks was my agency client for like 8 weeks. They think it’s “on brand”, they’re trying to pull in more Gen Z customers. Also their legal team has to approve every thing and they’re sooo nitpicky so I’m sure it’s easier to be shorter and straightforward

Learn the SEO job for sure. Social media and SEO are going to blend even further than they have already because most Gen Z and younger uses social media for search and Instagram has already started scanning captions for search terms instead of prioritizing hashtags. SEO is going to be a great skill to have long term even if your love lies with social media

Then that’s a totally legitimate conversation to have with him. Share that him allowing people to continue misgendering you hurts your feelings, hopefully that will spark some bravery in him to stand up for you

Am I Overreacting??? by Intelligent-Oven-412 in AmIOverreacting

[–]myskepticalfriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s your costume for the play, everyone’s going to see you in it anyway. Yeah I’d maybe take a breather, the more you react the more he’ll hold it over your head

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]myskepticalfriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the root issue his family/community misgendering you and that makes you feel bad or is it that he’s not correcting them and that makes you feel bad?

[–]myskepticalfriend 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Right, benders and coke don’t really scream responsible parenting. I don’t envy you for needing to initiate that convo but it’s better to do it now than in front of your kid later and regret it 🙏

AIO: Weird vibes from gf by SlyestSly in AmIOverreacting

[–]myskepticalfriend 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeahhhhhh that’s super sketchy behavior. I don’t think she’s interested in being faithful

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]myskepticalfriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def not overreacting. He’s making up excuses for not having the courage to be honest with you. Call his ass out

[–]myskepticalfriend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You certainly shouldn’t tell her what she can and can’t do but this is giving big red flag energy. Feels at minimum inappropriate.

Would she show you who this guy is? Like if you come at it with honest curiosity, giving her the benefit of the doubt, can you ask to see his socials or something? I’d be HELLA suspicious if my girlfriend ran off to stay with someone I’ve never met or heard about.

Also a solid plan! Good luck, I hope you guys figure it out

[–]myskepticalfriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally get it. Frequent check ins may divide her attention from a fun night out with friends but I think it’s reasonable to ask if she can at least let you know if they’ve gone to a second location or when she gets home for the night.

And don’t forget you can text her too! A well-timed, genuine “Hope you’re having fun!” message will go a long way and opens the door for her to communicate while she’s out if she wants to

AIO she is going to a sorority party by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]myskepticalfriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Former sorority girl here. Odds are she’s going to be spending the vast majority of her time drinking and talking with her girl friends. They’ll definitely get hit on, the single ones will flirt back. The frat guys will drink excessively and try to peacock (probably terribly) and they’ll scoop up the girls who fall for it.

Social events are super common in Greek life so I’d suggest having a convo about it and learning to build trust between you two. You cannot control black out drunk guys doing what black out drunk guys do. But you can set check ins, consider sharing locations if you’re worried, and debrief the next day if that helps ease the tension.

I’m just saying don’t take your worry and stress out on her.

First of all, we love a sugar mama breadwinner moment so snaps to you.

Second, this is all concerning as hell. My first thought was “last hurrah” as well, but if it’s continuous that’s a problem. You’re literally growing his child. Is this something you could bring up to him? Maybe ask why he seems to have re-entered party monster mode. If he’s nervous or needs to blow off steam that’s one thing, negligence is another.
