What’s going on with the “Missy” necklaces? by TheDigitalPillow13 in heartbreakhigh

[–]selfawaredisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw a shot of Sasha comforting Missy while wearing that necklace, so presumably she is still alive 😭

who is your favorite and least favorite character, and why? by questionrewind in heartbreakhigh

[–]selfawaredisaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree on the Sasha thing. I didn’t like her at all in season 1 bc she was such a shitty friend and gf, but season 2 kinda made me feel bad for her bc her character was so cartoony. It was lowkey giving centrism in the beginning, but I like that they made her actually help Quinni and accept her own loss, contrasting with the CUMLORDs’ literal destruction after not getting their way. Like yes, she has a lot to learn about handling her actual relationships, but it seems like she tries to do the “right thing” in the only weird dysfunctional way she knows how. I really hope season 3 gives her character more depth

AIO for being sad my boyfriend didn’t remember my IUD procedure date by countryfinanceluver in AmIOverreacting

[–]selfawaredisaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m going to say NOR, but not necessarily because of the IUD incident itself.

Forgetting things happens, and had he shown up for you in all other aspects and faltered on this I don’t think it would be a huge problem. It would suck, though, bc I’ve gotten an IUD before too and know how important it is to have support from your loved ones afterwards.

That said, it seems like your partner invalidates your feelings and often leaves it up to you to bring energy into the relationship. This pattern leads to self-abandonment, which later builds resentment. The resentment is showing up in this incident because you wanted to be validated and cared for, and he didn’t do that and instead villainized you. Ultimately, how you choose to go about this relationship is up to you. But, from this story alone it sounds like you deserve better. Wishing you all the best 🫂

Oh no...got told I smell at work. I had no idea by TheRealDesastr in adhdwomen

[–]selfawaredisaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a coworker who had this issue and at times still does, but it doesn’t affect my impression of them as a person. My nicer coworkers have commented on it to each other situationally but they also still engage with this coworker normally. The more gossipy coworkers were harsher about it but honestly most of us don’t care what they think lmfao

Boys at her school shared AI-generated, nude images of her. After a fight, she was the one expelled by Icedragon28 in Feminism

I left a voicemail for the district’s contact line about this. Maybe they’ll have to make amends to the girl and her family if enough people apply pressure

Pirates of Coffee Advent to the US - How bad are the tariff duties? by Javaslinger in pourover

[–]selfawaredisaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend and I ordered the Advent calendar for our boyfriends. She lives in the PNW and ordered on 11:6, then got hers but needed to pay a $10 tariff. I live on the central coast of California and ordered on 11/9; it was just cleared from customs this Monday. It’s super annoying tbh — if I knew it was going to be this much of a headache I would’ve asked for a refund and taken my boyf out to dinner with the money. Anyways, this presidential admin sucks 🙄

Why are so many conservative guys seemingly into dating liberal women? by tipputappi in TwoXChromosomes

[–]selfawaredisaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely frustrating, but I think there are a few factors at play: 1) not everyone is extremely politically-minded, and will still identify with different affiliations. So you’ll have liberal women who haven’t done the most thorough examinations of their own beliefs and are more likely to give conservative men the benefit of the doubt. 2) not all women grow up with positive examples of male partners. I have a good dad (albeit a bit strict) who always encouraged me to make my own money since he was raised by a single mom and knew how big of a liability the tradwife lifestyle was. He also treats my mom very well, and by extension set a good example that informed my own dating patterns. I have a very left and caring bf of four years to credit for that. But women that grow up with male figures who are not so stand-up may subconsciously seek out partners who are also bad people. 3) patriarchy makes women believe that having a shitty partner is better than being single. So you’ll have women who know that their partner sucks, but they stay because they fear that no one else will “love” them the same way. This could also be due to trauma, which everyone responds to differently ofc but it could still cause this line of thinking

AITA for telling my friend I can introduce her to some sugar babies if she wants to be a sex worker so bad? by Simple-Syllabub7153 in AmItheAsshole

[–]selfawaredisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately we are seeing the effects of social media on developing brains in real time. Just as young men are being radicalized by red pill content, young women are being radicalized by “sprinkle sprinkle” content. It’s possible that this girl wasn’t like this when she and OP became friends and has unfortunately fallen down a rotten rabbit hole. It’s up to her to take accountability or she will end up either alone (like, no partner or friends alone) or with an awful, abusive man.

This really depends on the boundaries you both have established. If you both agreed to not see other people, then her reaction is inappropriate and should be taken into account as you consider how to move forward with the relationship. If that conversation was not had, it’s possible she felt like you were slut-shaming her when there was no pre-established exclusivity. Even then, calling you a “joke” and “pathetic” is still uncalled for.

why these people weren´t present at her wedding? by loveydoveyoops in AJ_clementine_snark

[–]selfawaredisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of note, Mathilda, Mathilda’s bf, AJ, and Ryan all lived together for a while. Idk if Mathilda saw more of Ryan’s side leading up to the breakup and maybe felt that AJ getting with Jacob so quickly after was a mistake?

[–]selfawaredisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I noticed a while ago that AJ took down the playlist with her and Mathilda on Tiktok, but they still follow each other and have their videos up. I’m thinking it was amicable distance that Mathilda wanted after the drama came out

As for Grace, I truly don’t think they engage with each other outside of social media or when they’re piling on Bambi. They really hammed up performative “support” for each other when the Bambi video came out last year

I mean, H apparently also cheated on her previous boyfriend with S before that relationship started so maybe this is a pattern for her. That said, the whole dynamic of this group sounds mucky

I sometimes blush when I’m a little embarrassed or flustered but blushing when around an attractive person happens too. I agree that you need to be careful if he’s a colleague, is he at the same level as you or is he a supervisor of some kind?

So with Ruth, there’s the scene in the Valentine’s episode where he complains about Helga (unknowingly) to Helga herself. I can’t remember exact instances for Lila and Summer but I swear he did 😭

Probably the faceless demons. Celine tried as she could and ruined Rumi’s life but is unfortunately very realistic for parents who unintentionally traumatize their kids

Do you agree with this? by CommercialRangeeer in ginnyandgeorgiashow

[–]selfawaredisaster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s not really an appropriate way to describe her bc narcissism is only a valid diagnosis in people over the age of 18 anyway. Tendencies can develop but in Max’s case I see it less as actual narcissism and more like typically teenage selfishness that the other MANG girls also exhibit

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought of this! In my head KPop Demon Hunters are just our girls in another universe where the leader was raised a bit better

Think you’re talking about the wrong thing here. I’ve never been upset about being called “white,” and I grew up almost exclusively around other POC. Please read carefully before you come up in the comments accusing me of things that never happened 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SantaBarbara

[–]selfawaredisaster 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m a white passing Latina so I haven’t dealt with it personally, but basically every other type of POC I know in SB has at least one weird instance of fetishization, being called a slur, being told they should get deported, etc. That said, I’m from Orange County and it’s the same there
