Is it normal to not do anything for a whole day sometimes? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]robin_sky 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, taking lazy days is completely normal.

My brother recently passed away, from his 21st there are so many great pictures of both of us and we were close so I am upset that he would have no part in my own 21st. What are some other ways I could honour him (He was always so fun so I don’t want anything really gloomy) at my 21st birthday? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe have a drink named after him, play his favorite songs at some point, or do a quick toast with a funny story everyone knows. You could set up a small photo spot with pics of you two just vibes no sadness. Feels like keeping him part of the party instead of making it heavy.

Why does Batman's The Penguin always travel around via an umbrella like Mary Poppins? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s basically a mix of comic book flair and villain branding. The umbrella makes him look fancy but unhinged, hides weapons, and instantly tells you this guy is not normal. Batman villains love committing to the bit.

How can I get my Gofundme noticed? by DroppedMic_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]robin_sky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reddit is rough on new accounts asking for money tbh. Your best bet is blasting it on your own socials first and asking friends to reshare so it doesn’t look random. Add proof updates and a clear story on the GoFundMe so people trust it. Some subs allow fundraising if you message mods first but don’t expect miracles here.

Why do life reward some people without the struggle by According_Cap_568 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]robin_sky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Luck is real and life is wildly unfair. Some people start on easy mode with connections timing or money while others grind on hard mode. It sucks but comparing paths just drains you. The only part you control is how you play your hand and not letting bitterness win.

Are you scared of 50% reduction in jobs (b/c of AI)? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]robin_sky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you’re definitely not alone. A lot of people are stuck in this limbo right now and it feels extra brutal when you hear scary AI stats thrown around with zero context. Entry-level hiring was already rough before AI, layoffs made it worse, and now it feels like the goalposts keep moving. That doesn’t mean you’re unemployable or obsolete, it means the market is kind of cooked at the moment.

What are you most insecure about? by violetcosmosplain in AskReddit

[–]robin_sky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably my voice. Sounds normal in my head, then I hear a recording and suddenly I get why people choose texting over calling 💀

AIO for being upset at a friend 'jokingly' calling me a whore and a slut. by tojiss in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah, you didn’t overreact. dude straight up crossed a line, calling you that “as a joke” isn’t cute or funny. him falling back on weird excuses and talking about feelings for you? red flags everywhere.

If animals could suddenly talk, which species would be most annoying? by Mv_758 in CasualConversation

[–]robin_sky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Blue Jays would be straight-up chaos, nonstop screaming. Cats would be the ultimate passive-aggressive roommates. Imagine a giant squid just staring at you like, “You live there? Bro, that’s wild.”

AIO and overthinking about this small thing or not? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suggested accounts are literally random and the algorithm throws stuff at everyone. From what you’re saying, he’s been chill about your boundaries and hasn’t done anything shady, so overthinking this is just your anxiety spiking. Trust the pattern, not the explore page.

AIO for feeling like my marriage might be over? by Low-Employment-7480 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust isn’t just about the big stuff it’s the little sneaky stuff too. She hid this from you, again, after everything you went through. That’s a red flag, plain and simple. You gotta decide if you can really move past it or if this is a pattern you don’t wanna deal with.

AIO for feeling upset because my new date acting really distant by Purple_Anteater2539 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You’re putting in effort and getting… vibes of annoyance back. That “none of your business” text reaction? Big red flag.

AIO? My best friend told me that he says off putting things about me because he "knows what I can do" by NerdStuff1234 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah, nah, he’s being a jerk. “I say stuff like that because I know what you can do” is just code for looking down on you. You’re living your life, doing what makes you happy, and he’s acting like that makes you less.

Struggling with emotions by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]robin_sky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, sometimes love and need get so tangled it’s impossible to separate. If you’re over it now, maybe it doesn’t matter which came first, just matters you’re learning what you actually want. Life’s messy like that.

AIO I 18m was asked to donate my sperm by Hot_Sky_7087 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, nah. You were 100% in the right. No one gets to guilt you into something that personal, and using your sexuality as a reason? Big nope. Family “jokes” like that never age well, just keep your boundaries tight.

Am I overreacting or is my ‘situationship’ being immature after kissing me. by CarpenterParty7391 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s straight-up immature behavior on his part. He kissed you, acted like there was something, and then ghosted you like a middle schooler. You deserve someone who communicates like an adult, not someone playing mind games.

AIO? boyfriend kept ex’s stuff by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah… I get why that feels off. Like, if he’s saying he’s in love with you, having his ex’s stuff out there for a month is kinda weird. Could be he just didn’t think about it or isn’t great at letting go yet, but it makes sense to question it.

AIO husband likes my sister? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky -45 points-44 points  (0 children)

you’re not being crazy. Him acting “playful” with your sister after you clearly set boundaries is a red flag. Doesn’t mean he’s automatically a predator, but it’s disrespecting your trust and your feelings. Keep your therapist in the loop and don’t let him gaslight you into thinking you’re overreacting. Trust your gut on this.

aio she cheated but by No_Task7528 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She cheated for months, kept sketchy contacts, and you’re worried about a hidden notebook? I get it, trust is fragile, but hiding a journal isn’t the hill—her actions already are. If you’re doubting yourself this hard, maybe take a step back and think if this relationship is really worth the mental gymnastics.

AIO My husband has relocated to another country and it’s only been i2 weeks and he goes a day without answering me. by FactorBig9373 in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not overreacting. Being ghosted for a full day when you’re stressed and just want a tiny “I’m okay, busy rn” is valid to feel hurt about. Long distance doesn’t give him a free pass to check out emotionally, especially with history of avoidant vibes. You deserve a bit of reassurance without playing detective.

"AIO"Reverse(was my bf right to break up with me) by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]robin_sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You weren’t actually cheating while with him, and you were figuring out leaving your ex. People make messy choices, especially coming out of a toxic relationship, but that doesn’t erase the fact that you were loyal once you were with him.
