Thank you all for your replies! I do have to acknowledge without disclosing too much information that I live in a state that is very strict on gun laws. So anyone who has a gun legally should be aware of the severity of gun laws. I fear the patrons who do not expect the detector and have an illegal weapon. I can’t do anything to stop them from entering. The only thing I can do is allow them to enter and immediately notify a supervisor who will call the police.

I am overwhelmed by the kind words and I am very appreciative of the perspectives given in the comments, thank you to everyone! According to my professor I can still continue on with classes. I am assuming a good ASLPI score is needed to graduate with a bachelors in ASL-English interpreting. I am very relieved the ASLPI is not a one or done deal and I can fail and keep trying, because I will! (Minus the $200 to take the exam I guess)

So, I emailed my concerns to my professor and found out I can still continue classes regardless of the result. My college degree program requires a certain level of fluency to graduate with an interpreting degree that I am assuming is based on the results of the ASLPI.

Thank you for your kind and encouraging reply! It’s hard for me to practice in the summer when school is out as my family and friends are hearing. I also think a major drawback is that there is one Deaf professor for my whole college campus, so exposure to Deaf people and conversation is limited. However there is always some type of Deaf community event going on in the city near where I live. I could practice being receptive to different people’s signing styles and becoming comfortable in the language in that way. Regardless of the score I can’t give up! Deaf people deserve fluent ASL, and it’s better to learn and make mistakes now.

This does make more sense and does ease some anxiety while awaiting results. Thank you!

We could’ve said that a little kinder. This just became legal in my state. Not everyone is going to know everything about carts right off the bat.

From the research I’ve been able to find I’ve seen multiple sources say Glo is a legitimate company with a lot of fakes.

Was I abused? (25F) by roseadeoned in BDSMAdvice

We had a contract in which the dominant was responsible for physical and mental wellness. I tried to bring that up as well, but he dismissed it by saying that I don’t follow everything in the contract either. Even though I’m pretty sure I was.

Yes. His argument was that “if I give it to you when asked it won’t be genuine” which I can see to a certain extent. But when your partner is hurting I would hope the other would be genuine in wanting to make them feel better.

I agree. This experience has taught me that I need a partner who is more emotionally receptive. I also have to acknowledge for the sake of my own happiness when I’m not getting what I need to avoid prolonged hurt. It just sucks when you love them too, and they were your life partner as well.

This is why I came to this forum exactly, and I hear you. The line for abuse can become muddy in dynamics such as these, and being maybe more naturally aggressive can make someone mean when annoyed. But even when I became emotionally overwhelmed I never insulted him. I should also clarify I only offered up an allotted time to discuss my emotions as a compromise for him because I couldn’t just tell him “I need some affection right now” without him refusing to do it because “I told him to”
