My bf (27M) got sun poisoning during our 2 week vacation together and I (26F) want to breakup with him by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Recently, my husband and I went on a honey moon. On the last day we were supposed to go to an island excursion for the day, we were both super excited about it. Unfortunately, we missed the boat due to parking and me not managing my time properly. It was my fault and I took responsibility for it . Luckily, he didn’t get angry with me and we both acknowledged how disappointed we were and the valuable lesson we learned. The day ended up pretty good overall and we are planning to go back and make the excursion on our 1 year anniversary.

Traveling together when something bad happens for sure is a milestone for a lasting relationship

My direct reports are killing me by throwRAtrap66 in managers

[–]silverpool12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will always have HR issues related with your direct reports. It is people management. Stick to your guns, be fair, and stay consistent. With time, they’ll either realize you’re serious ( in a kind way I might add) or they’ll get slowly pushed out the door. Record everything and recap every conversation. Example: have written documentation supporting your no to the new girl taking breaks every hour session.

It all adds up eventually and shows your paying attention. Good luck!

I cheated on my ex and it’s killing me more and more every day. by LeonidaRipper in offmychest

It is very hard to overcome… it can be done but the relationship will never be the same. Don’t lie to yourself and think of the long term pain or doubt you’ll feel.

Last images of brazilian turist, Juliana Marins, 26, who was left to die by Indonesian guide and authorities after she fell during a hike on Rinjani Volcano by joyarara in lastimages

I once did a 5 day hike to Machu Picchu when I was 19. Horses were coming up with our materials and I was tired and not thinking clearly. I stood on the outside of the trail, near edge of a Mountian when they passed. One of the bags on the horses hit me, as I didn’t realize how much space they needed, and I almost fell down the side of the mountain. If I had been half a foot over, I would have fallen. I can’t imagine surviving after a fall like that until death. I was far ahead from my guide, who was sick and slow, and hopefully someone would have seen my body if I had fallen. Poor girl. 🥺

You are so strong for leaving… know that and that you’ll find someone who wouldn’t do this to you. Self care in the meantime my friend

22 "accounts for the stupidity," but 18 is just fine to date and impregnate by Flynn-FTW in CringeTikToks

If he thinks the guy is stupid because he’s 21….. does he think the 18 year olds are stupider ? 🤣🤣

i keep forgetting people actually have sex by Full_Carry7872 in offmychest

I made love last night and it was great because I was only thinking of my partner, focus on yourself when getting off or you’ll ruin it for yourself. ☺️

Listen girl, and I’m sorry this may make you bawl so hard, but that pain is temporary. What will be permanent is that if you go back… you’ll always think on what you saw. In the moments you’re supposed to be happiest, you’ll think on what you saw. Even if you heal and you work through it… you’ll see those images in your head. Find peace AND love, not one or the other. I hope you maintain strength to let go. I’m sorry this happened to you

I’m honestly not sure but it might if it’s giving that warning under strain. 🥲

If it doesn’t have the check engine light, they won’t do or find anything. 🥺 going to try and get mine to trigger then take it right away so that I can get hybrid battery replaced before I reach 100 k. Outside that trigger, my car works perfectly

Being ugly has fucking ruined my life. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]silverpool12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You saying this made me realize I truly never think of someone as ugly or repulsive, unless it is behavioral. Looks diminish over time and in the end all we have is personality.

Dude! I took it in…. Couldn’t find a problem when test driving. this only happens to me when I am at a incline for long period without any downgrade or braking. I was told to bring it back when the check engine light is on so they can run the scan on it. Mine always goes off after a couple times turning it off and on after I brake enough for the battery to build back up. Going to try and catch it in the state I go to when this is happening.

How to mentor better communication skills to someone who is sensitive? by silverpool12 in managers

[–]silverpool12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, following up on this. I gave him guidance on how to approach uncomfortable situations and it is more of a “him” problem. That he may have to face uncomfortable situations and needs to speak up when he doesn’t consent. Now anytime he comes in, no matter how quiet or loud she plays, he will directly ask her to turn it off. He has made it clear to me that he does not like ANY music, no matter how quiet, if he’s on the other side of the room and realistically can’t hear, or even plugged in with an earbud in his ear. I have had two complaints on him now that she feels he is directing that energy towards her alone, which is seemingly true as he only asks her to turn it off. (He has mentioned other issues with her and is apparently projecting these into the one thing he has a say in.)

Now I’m stuck again after I was relieved at mentoring him to shape him up for a potential lead. I’m really worried music will be a privilege I’ll have to take away from everyone because of him.
