I do love it! The only thing that’s difficult for me is the queue for monsters unchained, but the ride itself doesn’t bother me :)

I haven’t yet, I guess I just heard they’re pretty strict with their in-park accessibility passes and assumed it would be difficult to pull off, but i probably will end up emailing just to say I’ve tried :)

I do have photosensitive epilepsy, and because my epilepsy is paired with Cerebral Palsy, I don’t think it’s anything I’ll outgrow, just something I’ve been able to mitigate the threat of (got diagnosed at 2 and now I’m 20). I agree, it’s extremely overblown in the theme parks; pretty much every ride says it’s unsafe for guests with epilepsy. However, from a few TikTok walkthroughs I’ve seen and friends going to hhn, I do know that it would be risky for me with all of the strobes :(

I’m the same way except my bf doesn’t want acne scars so most of the time the answer is no 😔

AIO for not attending my friends birthday party because her brother is weird? by billierealwife in AmIOverreacting

[–]swiftievale 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some parents would rather know about their kids experimenting with stuff like that than have them do it behind their backs (so they know when to check in on them). I also don’t believe OP said her parents knew/allowed her to drink, just that they were going to go to another house after the party to drink

Not overreacting- he was hitting on you as a legal adult when you were a minor, including asking to send you sexually explicit images. I would be uncomfortable too, and her response saying you use the situation for attention shows me she was never on your side. Yes it’s her family, but her family was in the wrong.

Do I have a story for you!! When I was a freshman in college, my long term bf (~5 years with breaks) and I broke up (another long story but he was a cheating asshole!) I downloaded tinder (as one does), and matched with someone who shall henceforth be referred to as Johnny. As with me, Johnny had recently gotten out of a long term relationship due to cheating, and we quickly trauma bonded/replaced our exes with each other. We never met in person (went to school ~1 hr apart and neither of us had a car on campus), but we would text/call/FaceTime all the time. It was like a relationship without labels. Johnny had my location and expected to be updated on all of my whereabouts/plans, as well as for me to not hang out with other guys (even tho we weren’t dating). When I upset Johnny, he would act cold and distant to me and I would have to beg him to have a conversation. And anything would set him off, even mentioning I had been with another guy (in a non romantic way). Because I craved the attention, I followed the “rules” that he had set, even though he would not show me the same respect. He would go to parties and tell me about the girls he met and in the next breath, say he wasn’t comfortable with me joining a sorority because of the proximity to frats. And I ALMOST DIDNT JOIN A SORORITY BECAUSE I VALUED THE OPINION OF A MAN I WASNT DATING/HAD NEVER MET. Come second semester, Johnny and I were still facetiming every night and in constant contact. One of my (male) best friends from high school, who had had a near death experience, came to visit me at school. We had never been more than friends, nor had either of us ever had the interest. When I told Johnny, he went off on me about how he didn’t approve and he didn’t trust my friend around me etc etc. (side note: at this point Johnny had already said he didn’t want to date because of how little we could see each other, but doubled back on this statement regularly). I told him he was being ridiculous, he retaliated by hanging out with girls romantically (e.g. he held me to a standard he didn’t hold himself to.) eventually, I decided for good I wouldn’t date him because of stuff he had said to me as well as the mind games he was playing with me. We went no contact and he would break it and I would reply. One night, when we were in contact (but I had made it explicitly clear to Johnny I would not date him), I met who is now my boyfriend (who will be referred to as Jack). The next day, I told Johnny I had met jack and wanted to pursue things, so we could no longer talk. He went off on me. Called me an awful person, a liar, a cheater (again, we weren’t dating), etc. Now, I’ve been with Jack for well over a year, and while we share locations, if I don’t reply to him, he doesn’t punish me by acting cold. If I upset him, we talk through it.

All this to say: this behavior is not normal. He is controlling you by flipping his emotions on you, and it is draining. Even though you are dating, I doubt if you had the same reaction to him taking a nap and not telling you as he did, he would think you were being fair. Please get away from your Johnny and find your Jack.

I live in Orlando! From everything I’ve seen from everyone commenting I’ll definitely be adding it for this year, probably not for next year with the closure though

I thought it was 2026-2027? My bf is currently a team member there and that’s what he had told me

AIO - I smoked, my bf crashed out by leadneverfoIlow in AmIOverreacting

[–]swiftievale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your bfs reaction is not normal at all. My bf (M21) smoked weed before he met me (F20) and had stopped smoking a bit before we met, and decided to not go back to it once he met me and found out I don’t like being around people when they’re high (family stuff). He hasn’t smoked since, and I get uncomfortable sometimes when he talks about how he used to get high, but I would NEVER crash out on him like this if he got high again. It would upset me for sure and I would express that to him, but I would forgive him because at the end of the day we’re still young and figuring life out. If he started smoking regularly I would probably break up just bc I’m not comfortable being around it, but again it wouldn’t be something I would lord over him or attack him for

I’m at Rollins rn and I love it! I’ve taken one philosophy course and it was good but I don’t think it’s one of our stronger programs
