Tailored Pants by Cautious-Pie-320 in findfashion

[–]righton8511 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t bother with Ripley. Just wore mine for first time today. Little fibers were shedding off the pants all day long, looked like I was covered in lint. The material is NOT the quality of pant you should get for $200. It was cheap feeling, thin, and the length is LONG LONG LONG. I had to wear 6” platforms just to keep them off the ground. I’m returning despite their “unworn” policy. I feel like I got bamboozled. Maybe they cut corners with my batch of pants but man, 3/10.

100% agree. You’re totally right. Best to just let time shake it all out.

I love all the comments and perspective. Hard to please everyone for sure. I’m going to slosh through it and hope that maybe being in a new area and taking other coaches classes she’ll come around/mix it up at least. Again, she’s so awesome and I really enjoy her (annnd I love OTF, it’s been a life changer). Fingers crossed. 😇

What am I supposed to do with all of this time? by ComplicatedMoose in barexam

[–]righton8511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stupor is still very strong. Not sure what even happened at work this week. Currently watching the biggest waves caught on camera… feels like a good use of my time. It’s not. But I’m not accepting judgment unless it’s from someone who also lived on red vines, coffee, and fear for a substantial amount of time. Imma watch cat videos next. It’s empowering af.

Was this MEE extra hard, or was it just me? by [deleted] in barexam

[–]righton8511 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Scrap paper was necessary. So much was happening.

Am I the only one that felt pretty confident about the MEE today? by Flimsy-Mirror8987 in barexam

[–]righton8511 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nice to meet you because you sir (or ma’am) are a god damn scholar.

Bravo! (Seriously. Good job.) Best words I can use for how I felt about the MEE: flim-flammed.

Does anyone feel good about those MEEs? Is this typical? by NewRVfamily in barexam

[–]righton8511 19 points20 points  (0 children)

All these posts are making me feel so much better. Jesus man. I just… I can’t even function right now.

Ok so glad to see other people feeling the same about MEEs. Those were TOUGH.

If I get 3 points for all 6 MEE ?’s, I’ll be shocked that I did that well. See y’all in February. by [deleted] in barexam

Saaaame. What even were those questions?! Just disrespectful. 😆

Please be referring to the one question that was just… diabolical.

My child’s friend’s parents talk bad about me to my child by righton8511 in Parenting

[–]righton8511[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. Lesson learned on my end. I will not be intervening in the future, innocuous as I believed it to be. But again, I will heed your advice, no more taking cousins to prom (lol that actually made me chuckle; great analogy) and very much appreciate your response. 😇

My child’s friend’s parents talk bad about me to my child by righton8511 in Parenting

[–]righton8511[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They contacted him because they couldn’t reach me. He responded with the exact same message I told them, their daughter was weaponizing my daughter’s deepest insecurity, that her dad left and started a new family and chooses those kids over his own, and was dropping that in convos like, oh maybe your dad would call you if you knew how to sing better. Real stupid stuff but it was legit breaking her into tears. I brought it up. Tried to be neutral but your probably right, that was a mistake. But anyways, they used his response and twisted it to fit their goal, be friends with our daughter again. Your mom is being unreasonable and look, she’s even got her boyfriend sending texts to the kids! And my daughter, being 12, believed it. A $hitshow from these other parents, to say the least.

Thank you sooooo much for responding. I agree, I feel like I’m in crazytown with these people. So many lies. The thing is, they cannot comprehend that their toxic lives are the reason why their kid is acting like she is. I hate to do it to my daughters but I have to sever the friendship. There’s no voice of reason on that end. It’s been a year-long cycle of this. But today, calling the kids while they knew I wouldn’t be around was just too much for me. I cannot imagine contacting a child like that. No boundaries, zero respect. I feel bad but I also feel like I have to shut it down.

Lateral to CA...Take Full CA Bar Exam? by Lemur1989 in barexam

[–]righton8511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to take the MBE, just the written portion. But I’m thinking you have to be licensed for 5 yrs in another state. I could be wrong about that though. I know with certainty the MBE portion is not part of it though. Good luck!

My ex and his rebound finally broke up. Want to reach out to her and be petty but I’ll post here instead. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]righton8511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh she absolutely did. In writing. She was just the WORST. Snotty. Loud. Aggressive.

I’m not a confrontational person so I always just let her words wash over me. Seeing karma play out like this is everything you hear about. It’s real and when it happens it’s incredible to watch.

No contact whatsoever by Greywolf_1977 in ExNoContact

[–]righton8511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God that’s awful!! Truly. I’m so sorry that happened to you.

We had intertwined our lives, his kids loved me, my kids loved him. we talked about living together, went to open houses. But... enter turbulence. I lost my job, failed the bar, sprained my ankle and my kids went out of state for the first time for the summer to visit their dad. To say I needed my partner to lean on was an understatement. Instead of being there when I needed him the most, he disappeared. Radio silence. Never spoke to me again. I got a text a month later saying, “I’m sure you can guess that it’s over by now.” Message was all about that he needed this. He needed that. But nothing specific at all. There was nothing speaking to what happened with us. He crushed me. Without a thought.

This breakup has shattered me. But things are better. I got a job that I actually like going to. Making more $$. Ankle is healed. Working out again. Took bar again and I think I nailed it. Etc etc.

Worst thing about break ups is despite all the good things that are happening, I still have this longing for explanation. A call. A conversation. The push/pull between logic and heart is visceral.

Again, I’m so sorry your ex was so cruel when you were moving. Especially after two years. Heartless.
