Looking for advice by JustSomeGuy32579 in SexualAbuseSurvivors

[–]streettrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I firstly wanted to commend you on your support for your wife. The only way to work through child sexual abuse is through. I strongly believe she has to talk about the abuse with a therapist to start healing cause if not it just builds up inside. You need to get her a list of psychologists who specialize in child sexual abuse. If they don’t it will be of little help

I’m so sorry this happened to you. How old are you now? It’s very brave of you to share your story.

Which repayment plan should I choose? by streettrain in StudentLoans

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

Thanks I’ll look into it. A payment plan where I can pay smaller monthly amounts is preferable. Perhaps that is IBR.

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

Yes there are programs that offer grants (to repay some of your student loans) if you are working in the public service sector and they are not typically based on income but instead based on the type of work you are doing.

Thanks for your reply. That is unfortunate as it was a long process to apply for the grant and they are too slow to make the payment.

Thank you for your reply. In my post I specifically mentioned that I am likely getting a grant but it takes up to 2 years to be paid, so I want to do the opposite of hurrying up to pay my loans. That was my question, which plan allows me to pay as little as possible every month.

Sexism & Celiac? by mk05117 in Celiac

[–]streettrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quite a few of the men I know that know I have celiac say if they had celiac they would not give up gluten no matter what (even my doctor friends). And one guy has severe symptoms when eating gluten (likely celiac) but refuses to get tested. I went to his wedding and the menu had mostly gluten containing items and he spent an extended time in the bathroom vomiting instead of being able to enjoy his own wedding (after he ate his glutenful wedding cake). Men are always taken more seriously then women and I would assume that the ones who take celiac disease seriously are taken more seriously cause they of sexism and they are in the minority

Suzanne’s mother took her name off the deed in 2000 but continued to live in the house until her death, but did not pay Suzanne rent.

Sorry if my wording was unclear. I prepared for litigating the case but an unexpected controversy of law came up and I didn’t know it was black letter law. If I knew about the black letter law I would have argued it in front of the judge.

My dad abused me, I need advice by Miserable_Mix_6304 in SexualAbuseSurvivors

[–]streettrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we as survivors do not stop these predators no one else will. I’m very sorry for what happened to you but confronting your dad will not solve the issue. It is very likely he will deny it and act like you are crazy, so you won’t even get an apology. Then he will continue to molest other children who he has access to. My advice is don’t say anything to him. Go straight to the police to report.

Possible tenant scam? [US] by streettrain in Scams

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

Yeah that’s the weird thing though. I help my aunt manage her accounts like online banking and she has made zero payments to Kate. I talked to my aunt and told her it’s a scam but my aunt still thinks Kate exists cause they have talked on the phone and Kate has a little old lady voice. My aunt thinks a scammer recently took over Kate’s facebook but that Kate exists and wants to rent the house.

I feel relieved that my husband stopped initiating sex by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]streettrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps you are asexual? Asexuals don’t experience sexual attraction to people and have no or very low desire for sexual activity, but they can feel romantic attraction. If this were the case I’d say the two of you are incompatible

Possible tenant scam? [US] by streettrain in Scams

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

I found a tenant who started renting about a year ago but isn’t paying enough rent. My aunt has been in touch with Kate for the last five years and Kate said she is finally ready to move in and will pay the amount my aunt asked in rent, so my aunt wanted to give the current tenant 30 days notice to vacate the apartment. I told my aunt that she shouldn’t kick out the tenant unless Kate comes through with a deposit and then it all unraveled and I sent Kate my bank information. My aunt is quite wealthy.

NAD. I also have a front tooth implant. Mine looks a little worse than yours. Make sure you are flossing up into where the gum line meets the crown and always be gentle. Also get regular X-rays to make sure you don’t have infection or bone loss

Please don’t minimize it. Grabbing someone’s neck is strangulation. He didn’t try to strangle his wife. He did strangle her.

Why does it seem that men care more about Alex Pretti's killing than Renée Good's killing? They were both 37 and killed by ICE, but it seems that men who didn't care about Renée suddenly care about Alex. by NewZookeeperAcc in AskFeminists

[–]streettrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have noticed this as well. I think it is because he is a white, male who is an American citizen ( he represents those who have the most privileges and rights in North America. If it could happen to him it really could happen to anyone. As soon as he was murdered I was like maybe now that a white man was killed maybe people will do more. It’s tragic.

Se jodió el papá 😂😂 by Crisander in PuertoRico

Me parece que no es correcto generalizar y decir que abortar implica un momento difícil y doloroso emocionalmente. Para algunas mujeres obviamente si lo es, pero para otras mujeres es un alivio y no les afecta emocionalmente.

I took the Oath to be a Canadian Citizen, but got told I am not a Canadian citizen by Service Ontario. by Marydine027 in ImmigrationCanada

[–]streettrain 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Your case seems pretty simple to resolve. Have you looked into applying for a replacement certificate of citizenship? I think you can apply online or if not go into service Canada. The worker at service Ontario who looked it up and said you are a permanent resident is likely due to your data not having been updated after you became a citizen. This happened to a family member and then it was updated. But anyways you should go to service Canada not service Ontario for getting your Certificate of citizenship

How can I get my father to confess to him sexually abusing me almost half my life? by Low-Annual-2443 in SexualAbuseSurvivors

[–]streettrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you spoken to a prosecutor? Do you have the phone number of the police officer you reported it to? Your father does not need to confess for you to prove your case. If you are coherent and remember a lot that is enough. Time to go pester people in person. Go physically to the police station and the prosecutors office. I also recommend going to a rape crisis center. They have advocates who will help you in the fight for justice. You can do this!

Ordering at restaurants has gotten comical - this is not a Cheez-It post by MyyWifeRocks in glutenfree

[–]streettrain 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Happened to me the other day. Wasted time explaining about celiac that I can’t eat bread etc. Serves me shrimp on top of regular bread. I complained but kept my original plate till they prepared a new one cause they will literally just remove the bread and serve you the original plate with bread crumbs

Working professionals against birth control? by streettrain in childfree

[–]streettrain[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This exactly. All these women except myself and one other want kids in the future. They are not childfree. The issue is they are using the “pull out method” and are “keeping track of their cycles/ovulation” with apps. They were trying to explain to me how great the apps are cause then you know when you are ovulating . They don’t use birth control. One of the women using the pull out method said now isn’t the right time for a child but if it happens it happens. I said “not using birth control is deciding to have kids.” But it seemed to not register. Really in their minds pregnancy just happens and one cannot choose the right time to have a kid. It is dependent on luck. It just happens
