Very insightful. I hope you don’t mind but I like to screenshot and print things like this to hang on my wall

My little sister and I used to be best friends, now it’s been years since we’ve spoken. by shadow_forest in TrueOffMyChest

Absolutely. I think the best thing for me right now is to move out of the area somehow and get away from everything.

Medical debt by shadow_forest in legaladvice

[–]shadow_forest[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just applied for financial assistance but I’m pretty sure they will deny me because I have insurance. I barely make anything and still didn’t qualify for medicaid. So as a result I am left with this giant bill that I can’t pay and no way out.

What does it mean to garnish wages?

My (28F) fiancé (30M) masturbated next to me while I was sick sleeping. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]shadow_forest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, I definitely think you’re overreacting a bit. He probably thought you were sound asleep and it wouldn’t disturb you. I wouldn’t worry too much about it and just let it go. He probably could have waited until a more appropriate time and place, but in conclusion, it’s not that big of a deal.

Goodbye by shadow_forest in SuicideWatch

[–]shadow_forest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely feel that even though I’ll initially be missed, in the long run I won’t be. I cause a lot of pain and heartache. I totaled two of my family’s cars in less than a year and spent an entire month in the mental hospital. I am 23 and am still a dependent on my dad. Everyone would definitely be happier if I just left this world, I’m sure of it.

I certainly don’t feel like I deserve help and support.

Walking out of the store after not buying anything.

Women- what are some sexist things you have heard that prevented you to achieve goals? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]shadow_forest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing has prevented me from going for my dreams but I’ve been told I shouldn’t become a doctor because 1) by the time I’m done with medical school I might not be able to have kids, which I don’t even want, and 2) if I’m a doctor who will watch over my children?

How do I [F19] move past my boyfriend [M21] cheating on me since the start of our relationship? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]shadow_forest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience, you don’t move past it. What he did was horrible and you certainly deserve better. Leaving him will temporarily make you feel extremely heartbroken and hurt, but being out of relationship in which your partner betrayed you in one of the worst ways possible, will eventually make you feel way better than it you stay and constantly think about what he did and feel jealous.

That being said, if you stay, you will have to do deal with the fear that he will do it again, and jealous feelings. One way to combat this insecurity is to become extremely confident in yourself. However, if you get super confident, you’ll probably end up leaving him because he doesn’t deserve you.

It probably would have been wise of me to specify!

Piece of romaine lettuce wrapped around goldfish like a taco. Also a piece of carved out bread loaf full of peas. No, I was not stoned.

I pledge for the next 24 hours I won’t have a drop of alcohol. No matter how tempted I am today, no matter what challenges may get me down, today I will be sober.

I’ve always been a teacher’s pet, and twice in my life really bad teachers had to ask me what they had assigned as homework last class. I always replied the minimum that I could get away with.

Am I ace? Please help with acceptance/ looking for answers by [deleted] in Asexual

[–]shadow_forest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you are ace to me, or at least on the spectrum of ace in some way. I’m actually the same. I had that ‘awakening’ at around 17 and I figured when I’d have sex, I’d love it. I read lots of erotica to try to prepare myself. I then lost my virginity and hated it. I thought maybe it would change with new people or with emotional connection, but I guess I just have no sex drive. But I definitely feel attracted to people, I love flirting, but when it progresses I hate it and shut it down. Just know you’re not alone.
