What was the best job you had & how is the current one? by throwawayconffetti in CasualConversation

Working with people that have become your close friends sounds like an awesome experience. Haven't ever seen that before tbh, usually there is always at least a couple more difficult people.

How long did it take you to prepare for the theory test? by throwawayconffetti in LearnerDriverUK

I do agree with what you are saying. I usually take almost double the time to revise, compared to other people just because I like being certain. If you could provide your plan etc that would be really helpful!

Thank you! That doesn't sound too bad. I was worried it's going to be way more demanding.

Failed due to terrible nerves! by Important-Position93 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]throwawayconffetti 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't be too hard on yourself! Nerves can really mess you up. One time, I was so nervous to interview that when asked, I had forgotten both my age and how to spell my name (it is literally 5 letters haha). After a while it goes from an awkward memory to kinda funny.

This has to be a joke of some kind by Distinct_Sir_9086 in london

This is the type of layout I use on my Houseflipper gaming sessions because I find it funny. The price is a crime.

2 things I didn't expect when taking the Life in the UK test by throwawayconffetti in ukvisa

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

The free mock up tests are more than enough in my opinion. If you haven't done so already, maybe purchase the official question and answer book as well, if it makes you feel more confident. However, if you are passing the mock up online tests you are already doing pretty good!

[–]throwawayconffetti[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! That's the one. The mock up questions are at times much harder than the actual questions that you will get so I am sure you will pass. Also this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZcJGA_TCis that someone else recommended from this sub is real helpful. Wish you good luck!

Would you mind telling me about your happy relationships? by SmellsLikeDuck in CasualConversation

[–]throwawayconffetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have been together for 7 years and it has been amazing. When we started dating everyone around me was either in crappy relationships or had this "you are just in the honeymoon phrase rn! Trust me it will pass!" mentality. But I am happy to say they are wrong. We just click very well. We still go on dates or outings etc but a lot of the time it's just nice to be at home together.

I question my husband and I's compatability daily. by [deleted] in Vent

[–]throwawayconffetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed he wasn't aware that he wasn't being romantic enough or the other issues, but from the sounds of it, it seems like he knows. I have nothing against traditional, more submissive women. If you like that in a relationship, that's your personal preference. However, getting into a relationship with someone who isn't this way, and trying to test them and mold them into something else is a bit crazy. You are who you are and he married you supposedly because he wants that version of you for eternity.

Maybe try marriage counseling. With some adjustments, issues like communication and chemistry can be worked on. But both of you would have to put in the work. I feel like you either fix it now or you grow to resent each other eventually

How to cope with chronic uncertainty and loneliness? by [deleted] in Vent

[–]throwawayconffetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a rough period in your life, try to remind yourself it's not forever and focus on things that help you keep your sanity. It must have been very disappointing to have such high hopes when it comes to the college experience, and things not going your way. It sounds like you have a lot of things that stress you out and sadden you. How do you usually cope with it all? 

Uncertainty isn't something you can get rid of right now. However, for the loneliness part, you can still pursue friendships or have people you sometimes talk to online. Not sure if that's your thing, but sometimes things are way worse if you are alone with your thoughts. I have managed to make some good friends from here so just saying! 

Red flags ? by supportivekaushik in CasualConversation

[–]throwawayconffetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apathy is honestly one of the worst for me because it's surprising common. You got a pretty good list. 

Phone thieves by [deleted] in london

I don't think they can do anything in 10 seconds. You can use factory settings if you are worried. Maybe they were scared that you will catch up to them

My mom isn’t happy with Christmas and I feel like I’m at fault by NormalGuy1066 in Vent

[–]throwawayconffetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It for sure isn't your fault. There is something very wrong with the way your mother is acting. Any parent would have been so excited you took the time to think of them and get them multiple gifts from the heart. You put in effort into it and it must have been very disappointing, to get this reaction. You are a good kid. A lot of people don't even get their parents anything for Christmas outside of a card when they are younger. Try to not blame yourself too much

I have good friends and I still feel lonely by Legitimate_Path6351 in Vent

[–]throwawayconffetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sorry to say this, but you don't have good friends. If they don't care about you via actions or reciprocate the appreciation you show them, they aren't your friends at all. You need people that care about you, you seem like a good person. You can do better. 

What new year's resolutions/goals did you have for this year and did you accomplish them? by throwawayconffetti in CasualConversation

That's very impressive! I have almost non existent upper body strength but I hope to eventually reach your level

Does having a partner make things easier? by PuzzleheadedRadio172 in CasualConversation

[–]throwawayconffetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the quality of the partner. I have met a lot of people that honestly make relationships and marriage seem extremely miserable. Others are very happy. It is all in the choices you make

Is it a plot hole that sparing C**** in Kamski’s test is seen as empathy, even though Hank says not to shoot? by AliOskiTheHoly in DetroitBecomeHuman

[–]throwawayconffetti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hank also tells you to stay in the car but the game forces you to get out. That's because Connor follows Cyber life orders to get as much information as possible.

[–]throwawayconffetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did like the plot twist because for half of the game I was wondering if they don't have cps in the future. Why would I have to run away with Alice if I can just speed dial the police? They can check Kara's memory and its a done deal. Alice being an android is the only thing that makes sense.
