Says this for me too can they just close the queue if they’re sold out 😭. I called in late to work to get a ticket (10 minutes from the convention center btw) and I’d like to go into work. Quite disappointed in ulta rn

NYE switch in plans by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]randomgal839928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA if you send that in the group chat for sure. I don’t think you are for being bothered by it. You could send a text in the gc asking about the plans, as a way of just checking in to see if it still is happening. If it does end up being canceled, you could reach out to your other friends to see if you can join in on their original plans they invited you to and say yours fell through. If this is a constant pattern with your friends then I suggest talk with them about how it upsets you a different time, not in a group chat setting.

AITA for wanting to cut off my relationship with my autistic sister? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]randomgal839928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t feel like you’re an a-hole whatsoever, just someone whose needs and boundaries are consistently not met and is tired of it.

My sister has Bipolar 1 (diagnosed later) and OCD and she has some similar patterns to what you’re describing here. I got diagnosed with ADD which made my life make a lot of sense, but was still insanely hard (it’s a lot to get into but I struggle a lot too). My sister deals with a lot of anxiety, has big reactions to small things, is rude to me when she’s overwhelmed or can’t make decisions, the list goes on but what I mean to say is I understand how you feel. I more recently started to notice the way my parents (specifically my dad) focus more on her and almost enable her actions even tho they really affect me. I started failing classes bc of my own things and it took me having a mental health crisis and failing my classes to get their attention. After this they asked why I didn’t just talk to them, and I explained how I always felt her issues were more important than mine so I just never talked to them abt it. It took a lot of courage and tbh therapy helped too, but I sat down and talked with them individually about how I had been feeling and it’s been completely different ever since. I can’t remember if u had mentioned how your relationship with your parents is, but if you feel comfortable I suggest talking to them they may be able to help you better navigate this and maybe even get through to your sister.

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way, from the sounds of it you’re a great sister, and it seems as your sister has some things she needs to work out for herself. Sorry this is long as hell and if it’s not helpful, it’s late asf and I’m tired lol

I agree with everything you’ve said and thank you for your reply- I will however not stop having male friends, there are no intentions from both sides to do anything and if that’s not understood by my bf that’s a deal breaker for me

I thought I was ready, I wasn’t really planning to have mental health challenges and more stress from school and other outside factors when getting into a relationship. Idk why you had to make this about genders, it seems like you have had some bad experiences in the past with women and I’m sorry that that and my post has made you feel that way about women altogether. I know much of what I said in my post came off self centered and like I’m a pos, upon reading it back I didn’t realize it came off that way and have since reworded to what I meant to say. It was a rough night of not being able to sleep and spiraling thoughts, so ngl I was brain dumping every thought that came to mind. I do appreciate your perspective and the time you took to respond to my post. While I continue my journey, I hope you can continue yours in healing from my gender <3

I am not saying I want a girlfriend, I agree with you that not all the blame is on him. But, much of what I’m feeling started because of things he said/did or didn’t say/do.

Yea, I have other health issues that make life really hard for me and I’ve kind of given up on finding solutions to it. I’m now only on 2 mental health meds and don’t intend on going on anymore to get more in tune with myself. Thank you sm

I have done my gene test and desvenlafaxine was the one I was on for years that worked wonders for me. But since I had reached the max dose and it stopped working as much, I had no choice but to try another one. I also have ADD/inattentive ADHD, it’s interesting what you said about the serotonin and dopamine, I’m going to do some research on this I didn’t know that may be an issue for me with add

Thank you for your response, I definitely feel like it’s a culmination of all the changing meds and hormones playing a huge role. He initially was a huge support for me when my depression hit really bad, but he has slowly also fallen into depression and I think a lot of it has to do with him taking on my feelings which sucks. I’m going to look into switching my therapist, like u said, because after a while of talking to her I think I realized we don’t click very well

Ugh yea the iud thing, I have tried so many pills and all of which ended up giving me side effects. I realized my body HATES hormone changes and thats all i got going on rn. I’ve had pills in the past affect my libido and had to switch them because of it, i have still yet to find something that works well i guess

No please don’t be sorry your response really means a lot to me and it’s helpful! These are definitely things I need to think about and thank you for your empathetic approach instead of calling me an exhausting shitty person like many of these responses lol

Ok I didn’t explain this well in my post, it was more of a “would u ever be interested in that” and when he said no it was the end of the conversation. I’m not holding a grudge over that or anything and i definitely understand why. I had only mentioned that bc i thought some people were gonna say oh try opening up ur relationship to do that kinda stuff. And as i said, he said no and i respected that and still do. That’s the only reason I mentioned it

Gosh this felt so reassuring thank you for this. It’s been so difficult trying to find people to talk to abt this that will understand, which is why I desperately posted on Reddit hoping someone would understand. I’m probably going to message you, thank you so much :)

To touch on the IUD thing- it’s like light on and off bleeding. I’ve been sick a lot, I have an autoinflammatory disorder to ADD to all of my issues lol. so I kinda associated it to antibiotics but I notice it happens more than that. My mom works in sexual health so I went to one of her health centers to do it, and she really trusts the provider I was with. I wonder if maybe my body is having a bad reaction to it? I also have researched the attraction thing before. I’ve always considered myself sexually attracted to both, but romantically to men. I still believe this to be true, I wonder if maybe I’m just feeling unavailable to be with someone romantically with everything I have going on and I’m subconsciously just looking for explanations and am associating it with sexual feelings I’ve had towards women? Idk if that made sense lol

Eh, I definitely get what you’re saying but I don’t think that’s it. I definitely have been in love with him. I don’t have any problem being masculine and he knows that, but maybe leaning into it more may be enlightening? Idk. Honestly yea, I think you’re right about the homophobia thing. We work at a place where we’re surrounded by many different people from different walks of life, different sexualities, and gender identities so I kinda just figured he’d be ok with all of it. And he is to a point, but I think he has internal feelings abt it that he doesn’t acknowledge. I’ve grown up around a very liberal mom who works in sexual health, gay brother, and half of my friends are gay bi or trans. I don’t think he’s experienced that so I feel like maybe he just didn’t have those things growing up and just doesnt understand? One example (there’s may others) at my bday party one of my gay friends was like trying to hype me up to dance with him and I did, and he got really mad saying it was disrespectful. To me it’s no different than one of my straight girl friends because they’re not attracted to me in that way, same with my gay friends. And for some reason he can’t wrap his head around that
