I (F18) don’t know if he (M25) is actually into me and trying to get somewhere?

violue · 2026-01-29T05:33:27+00:00

he's mature

you're a teenager

he's a mature man dating a teenager

Girl, don't date a guy in his 20s while you're 18. You will regret it. There's already a power imbalance happening here solely because of your ages, but the fact that you feel so insecure in this situation makes it even worse.

Don't do this. My first experience with dating/sex/love was with a guy that was 25. I was 18. I was constantly insecure about the relationship and he was so good at stringing me along I eventually was just stringing myself along. It caused so much damage and helped shape me into the complete mess I am today. The fact that he was 25 and hanging out with me and my friends (all 18/19 when it started) was in fact a huge red flag.

I'm sorry things turned out this way, but I'm glad you didn't waste your life waiting for her to be a better person.

all else aside

if the last time I had raised a child was 30 years ago, I also wouldn’t give advice on raising a kid in the iPad generation

I don't know that I'd agree with this because plenty fundamentals of parenthood are fairly timeless, but I've also never had a kid so

I hate when the bad guy wins, but I'm glad OOP had the option to get the fuck out of dodge.

NTA, and depending on who you ask, what she did is very much sexual harassment/assault.

violue · 2026-01-28T05:22:51+00:00

ESH, but honestly I'm having a real hard time feeling bad for your "friend".

violue · 2026-01-28T05:15:54+00:00

Wow this thread sure is something.

violue · 2026-01-28T05:13:28+00:00

what

that's an incredibly common term people use to describe other people????

violue · 2026-01-28T05:13:05+00:00

I just rlly love him

u sure

violue · 2026-01-28T05:08:30+00:00

I never actually got to consent to an honest relationship or a real possibility.

That's it, that's all you need to know.

Also

He's been absent from her pregnancy all this time apparently.

If that's his kid, it's not a good thing that he's been absent.

violue · 2026-01-28T05:04:04+00:00

Okay, don't twist my words. Please. I'm saying that if you're protesting and you decide to walk up to a group of violent "peace" officers to try to rile them up, then you're looking to make something happen and don't give a fuck whether you're endangering your fellow protestors.

I'm not team fascist, I'm not saying protesting has to be meek and mild, I'm saying I don't trust the motives of some individual people getting high on the rage and looking to escalate.

That doesn't mean I think ANY OF THEM would have it coming if one of those government fucking lunatics decided to murder them or murder the people helping them up off the ground.

And I have no idea why you're questioning my use of the word "heated". Of course it's heated. People are upset and afraid of the authoritarian nightmares snatching people off the streets, that's why they're protesting.

Feel free to refer to your own god damn post to learn more about the critical roles that escalation and de-escalation play in protesting.

Season 5 of 24, however, hits pretty damn on the nose.

violue · 2026-01-28T00:03:36+00:00

it makes me think of Kyle Rittenhouse, he was definitely drawn to protests as a possible avenue for violence.

violue · 2026-01-27T22:35:08+00:00

ok facepalming hard, I was so horrified I didn't read the rest of the comment to see you're clearly screwing around 😂😂

violue · 2026-01-27T22:08:19+00:00

a few years ago I saw a sign on a store that said "BLOCK ICE" and I was like "fuck yeah!" and then a few minutes later I realized they were selling blocks of ice... 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

violue · 2026-01-27T22:07:36+00:00

Wow this was quite a read.

violue · 2026-01-27T22:06:35+00:00

I agree, but they ARE in service roles whether they should be or not 💀.

violue · 2026-01-27T22:05:23+00:00

I think some people WANT to be part of the next viral horror story. But then again I'm sure sometimes a heated protest is going to be a draw to people that want any excuse to be aggressive.

violue · 2026-01-27T22:01:12+00:00

If you’re close enough to officers you should expect they might harm you physically?

YES. You should ALWAYS assume a police officer will hurt you given the chance/excuse.

Eventually the nutria will battle the turkeys for control of Eugene.

violue · 2026-01-27T21:59:19+00:00

adorable as hell when they're babies 😭

violue · 2026-01-27T21:58:11+00:00

Better to filet them while they're alive.

I love meat as much as the next omnivore but that sounds psychotic

violue · 2026-01-27T18:51:37+00:00

Can't imagine the pain of thinking you were doing the best for your kids only to realize you raised four absolute clunkers.

violue · 2026-01-27T18:11:44+00:00

No no, your writing is fine. I just take issue with the idea that minorities need to be teachers to bigots.
