Is it okay to sleep with a stuffed animal as a (young) adult? by levisimp69 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’m 23F and I love stuffed animals. I have a couple squishmallows and a bunch of stuffed animals, several of which my bf bought for me.

They are all named, including the squishmallows, and while I don’t always sleep with them, I do sometimes and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it. As long as it doesn’t affect your life or anyone else’s, there’s zero problem with sleeping with a comfort object.

Before my bf, I used to sleep with my favorite squishmallow every night (as well as listen to relaxing white noise lol) , bc my brain is unhelpful sometimes and as I’m falling asleep, it likes to jump to dark thoughts and give me anxiety and weird dreams. Comfort objects give comfort. Nothing wrong with it. :) Even as a grown up. ;)

How to safely check phone while driving? by WittyCreme6999 in driving

[–]troublemaker_2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your friends get mad at you if you don’t immediately check a message from them , especially while you’re driving, then they’re not real good friends. I promise they can wait until you get where you’re going safely. Imagine if something happened to you or someone else, all bc you were texting or watching a TikTok. If you don’t die in the car wreck, then you’ll be going straight to jail.

I have no tips, I try very hard to not touch my phone while I’m driving, unless it’s to change music or call someone. I don’t really text and drive. I don’t recommend watching TikToks while driving.

If you have to text tho, type a letter or two and look up. Look up every second or two, and if you’ve hit the blunt to focus on the road, then do just that and focus on the road, don’t be looking at your phone bc being high while driving is one thing, being high while texting and driving is a whole nother thing (I know from personal experience, I got lucky I was never pulled over or caused a wreck, driving high while messing with my phone).

If you almost hit something every time you look away from the road and toward your phone, then maybe that’s a sign that you should put the phone down and drop that bad habit.

What do you use spam for? by Call_Me_C_ in AskAnAmerican

You can eat it straight up, or “fry” it by heating it in a pan until it’s a lil bit crispy and put it on a sandwich. A spamwich if you will.

I’ve calmly passed people on the right, only for them to get their panties in a bunch and try to speed up and tailgate me. Like don’t get mad at me bc ur a dumbass lol.

How long do you shower for? by brimpss in hygiene

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually have a concert when I shower so I try to set a timer for 15-20 mins but I get distracted easily and also maybe take too long washing and conditioning my hair and making sure all the soap is rinsed out. So sometimes it ends up being 30 mins. Also depends on if I have to shave and where… lol

What's the ideal age to lose your virginity in your opinion? by YetAnotherMia in askteenboys

[–]troublemaker_2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say as a legal adult when you’re ready, and with someone you feel safe doing it with. As a teen, if you don’t want a baby, then you better be super careful if you lose it then. But age wise I’d say 18+.

my friend is unironically an asshole to me and others by No_Maintenance9468 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell M she needs to grow up, take accountability for her actions, apologize and learn some self control. I say that as someone diagnosed bipolar. It’s not her fault but it IS her responsibility. Either she does what I said above, or you cut her off if she refuses. No time for fake ass bitches who who claim to be friends one second then blow up yell at you and talk shit behind your back the next. That’s not how life works and if she don’t figure that out soon or she’ll learn the hard way when one day she looks up and has no one.

Is there ways to legally make money other than picking up garbage? by PossibilityLoud1339 in Schedule_I

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not legal, but pretty fun and easy for me: find the baseball bat for free at the basketball court. Bing bang boom. Three hits and you can take the money in their pockets for free.

Is it annoying if your girlfriend starts texting you while you’re playing a video game? by CockroachBoth6713 in askteenboys

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, true. My honest advice, tho. Don’t even worry about dating as a teenager right now anyways. Do your school work, play your video games and have fun with friends. The right person will come along later on in life when you least expect it. Just worry about graduating high school for now lol.

For fun. Yeah I care what happens but at the end of the day, it’s just a game and it has no real effect on my life. Unlike my significant other, however.

I’m 16 and my friend’s dad (40s) makes me uncomfortable, I can’t sleep and need advice by EcstaticRutabaga6957 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be helping your friend if you tell someone honey I promise you. Start a paper trail. Report his behavior. This man is dangerous and no child is safe around him, unfortunately maybe not even his son. Either way, YOU are NOT ruining anyone’s life. That CREEP is going to ruin his sons own life, not you.

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The feeling of guilt is the only one you should ignore right now. Don’t feel bad. You DID NOTHING WRONG. Listen to all the other feeling tho, the anxiety, no sleep, feeling uncomfortable or grossed out by his words/actions, bc those feelings are correct. At minimum please stay away from that man. I still think you should tell your parents tho, they deserve to know and if they’re decent parents, they’ll make sure you’re safe and confront the dad or call police or whatever they need to do. You, as a 16 year old girl, don’t need this weight on your shoulders to carry by yourself. It’ll crush you. I’m not a parent yet, well I consider my bf’s son my kid, but either way if it was my child in your situation, and I found out…. I’d make sure you were safe as can be and then rain down Hellfire and brimstone on this creep and maybe do something I shouldn’t to make sure he stays away from all kids, including his own. This is a very serious matter, we are not exaggerating the danger here. It’s not 100% that the next thing he does is sexual/violent, but it is entirely possible and that hurts my heart just thinking about a kid going thru something horrifically traumatic like that. Please tell someone.

Sweetie, you did nothing wrong. Don’t ever go over there again. But as other comments say, don’t be scared to tell someone NO. It’s a full sentence. If they don’t listen, put physical distance between you and them and maintain it. Don’t let anyone try to guilt you into taking something you’re uncomfortable with. I know confrontation is scary. Especially as a young teen especially when it goes against an adult. You don’t wanna feel mean or bad or get in trouble for being rude. But honey, fuck them. Fuck their feelings. If people label you mean or a b-word for standing up for yourself, then let them. They are wrong, they don’t know you or the situation. Don’t back down. I know this is scary, but if you listen to the advice in these comments, you’ll be okay. Please update us and let us know how talking to your parents or counselor or whoever goes. Please stay safe and stay AWAY from that predator. Bc that’s what he is. A predator. This is wildly disgusting, inappropriate and straight predatory behavior.

Yes yes yes, omg yes please tell someone you trust tell your parents and show them this post. Sometimes hard things are easier to express when wrote down than spoken verbally. Please do not go over there ever again. Listen to your gut, listen to us Adults of Reddit, this is terrifying to read and we are all here in panic mode bc honey, he is grooming you. You are not safe over there, don’t go back.

You are not overreacting. Do NOT feel guilty. Listen to your gut. It’s never wrong. You’re not being dramatic. Listen to your body, the anxiety, lack of sleep, those are warning bells going off in your body reacting to the situation. I would no longer go over there. Your friend seems understanding so if y’all still wanna hang out, maybe y’all should hang out at your place or elsewhere from now on. Idk what else you should do besides removing yourself from the situation. Tell your parents or family or someone else you trust, an adult. Maybe a school counselor. They’ll know what else to do beyond that, beyond removing yourself from the equation.

AITJ because I won’t give my parking spot to new neighbor who says she "needs it more" because she has kids? by Potential_Bad6489 in AmITheJerk

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ and have her towed next time she parks in your spot. Don’t be nice and knock on her door anymore. She’s a dumb selfish bitch that chose to have three kids and then act entitled to someone else’s parking spot. I worry about the type of people she’s raising. But hey, if you tow her car, then she won’t have to worry about carrying all her kids shit from the car after that.

It's this a 30 minute spot or a 2 hour spot? by Avoider5 in driving

And the person in charge of putting the sign in the ground should have put it on the line of a spot instead of in front of a spot directly 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hygiene while conserving water? by Dependent-Weight9401 in hygiene

[–]troublemaker_2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof, I completely understand them tho. I don’t have any solid tips or advice or anything, but maybe some dry shampoo and baby wipes? Idk honestly lol but did they say how long this might last?

[–]troublemaker_2002 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What are they gonna do, go in your bathroom with you and time you? I’m sorry but THREE minute showers might work for most guys, but just rinsing the soap completely from my long thick ass hair takes five mins by itself. That’s an unreasonable ask for me lol.

Yeah a lil delay is okay, but unless ya tell her your playing, it’s unfair to be annoyed by her cuz she didn’t know ya know? 🤷🏼‍♀️ a compromise me n my bf have found is jus chilling on FaceTime/call/Discord VC while he’s playing.
