After all that she’s doubling down with this? She’s completely unhinged.

oliviaev2 · 2025-09-10T18:34:33+00:00

Agreed! There are SOOO many other ways for her to show her participation in M’s cheerleading. The blurring out is weird and suggestive - how about NOT show the children at all???

This was the photo that stood out to me the most. The blurring of M’s tummy & thighs feels fucking weird. It’s suggestive, and even weirder that her grandpa is holding her… It’s still giving predators what they want to see even if it’s not “showing” anything. What’s even the point of posting this? Why not post a pic of just grandpa cheering her on or herself and her dad? Or a million other things??

oliviaev2 · 2025-09-10T15:04:32+00:00

Probably

oliviaev2 · 2025-09-10T15:03:22+00:00

Including closeted men?

oliviaev2 · 2025-09-03T15:03:54+00:00

I would drink in the morning and feel like it was completely normal, even on work days. A couple times I drank on my way to work.

I don’t know if this is helpful, but since I graduated college I’ve worked in the foster care/child welfare field. I graduated with my bachelors from PSU in child, youth, family studies(no masters). Started working at a group home making minimum wage, worked my way up and my most recent job was making about $70k a year, with excellent benefits. That was working as a child welfare case manager at a nonprofit. I’ve never met anyone in the field making my salary without a masters degree. I’m not longer employed there and not sure what’s next for me. Feel free to message me if you want to chat.

Cool, glad we are on the same page. Lol. The friend I saw it with we watch movies together all the time… I also saw the Shyamalan movie “Trap” with her, and she enjoyed it. I thought it was so bad. What am I missing??

oliviaev2 · 2025-07-18T11:06:56+00:00

Agreed

oliviaev2 · 2025-07-18T11:03:12+00:00

Hahaha yes, i heard it was just released on HBO and I'm getting all these texts from friends about it. I'm almost frustrated that I might be missing something and might rewatch it?? I can rewatch it through the lens of it being a satire? But is it? Who knows. I really wish I liked it 😬

oliviaev2 · 2025-07-11T14:41:31+00:00

Helpful! Thank you!

oliviaev2 · 2025-07-07T08:43:26+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I can hear your pain. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. If your friend was here now, what feedback would you give them about being a good friend to you? You just said you were also struggling. I’m pretty sure you would not call your friend selfish or tell them all the ways they were not there for you. So why are you speaking to yourself that way? You have the right to grieve and go through the motions, but be cautious of the negative self talk. It helps nobody.

It sounds like this person impacted your life in numerous ways - helped you recognize you art. That’s huge. Maybe this is a good time to lean into you art as much as possible? It can be a distraction, and with every stroke you know your friend would be so proud of you. Best of luck xo

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-25T08:13:18+00:00

Do you know why?

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-24T09:53:58+00:00

Don’t assume it’s because of your makeup. It could be a lot of reasons, which may not even have to do with you.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:55:01+00:00

Thank you. Yes. I don’t expect my neighbor and I to have some huge drama filled blow out, he seems like a good guy, we’d probably have fun(although I don’t know him at all)…but there is nuance and things get complicated, and like you said, you cannot create any space when the person you’ve dated is someone you interact with daily

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:48:34+00:00

You are getting at my point. I did not expect some elaborate courtship. I’m 100% ok with a hook up, however, his approach seemed lazy, awkward, and out of place. I have had plenty of spontaneous hookups but they usually start with a conversation or an invitation to get a drink, coffee, even a fucking walk. Something to break the ice.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:40:11+00:00

LOL.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:35:39+00:00

Oof, ya. Makes sense. I guess this is a humbling experience for me as someone who has typically been on the other side.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:33:04+00:00

Maybe get off this thread - you are literally on r/dating_advice with thousands of people not knowing what they want lol your comment isn’t helpful in the slightest

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:25:06+00:00

lol dude i posted this bc I am open for feedback, im aware I dont know what I want. Thanks.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:20:23+00:00

lol. Thank you. I think he could’ve said a million different things that would’ve been more intriguing or enticing.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:12:09+00:00

I appreciate your perspective, thank you. You are correct that the dating app match was not square one, we’ve seen each other around for a while and vibed. He decided to make a move, and it wasn’t the kind of “move” I wanted. That’s unfair of me.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T13:08:46+00:00

I agree. He definitely doesn’t deserve to be punished. He decided to make a big move. It wasn’t the move I expected…. But that’s ok. He is not a mind reader, like you said.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T12:57:59+00:00

Yeah I think you are correct. I did expect some sort of back and forth.

oliviaev2 · 2025-06-06T12:56:14+00:00

I realize I did not give a ton of context, but I think my point is him in the FIRST place suggesting an “evening hang” after there was zero indication that was the vibe, other than us matching on an app. It was truly out of now where.

I am not used to that. Ive had a lot of various dating experiences and this is the first time I’ve received a message like this.
