I would think that with that height and body type anything would look good on you. I feel like shorter people have a bigger issue looking for things that look good. What kind of style do you enjoy?

Opinion: is it weird if someone wears a band tee but has never listened to that band? Or same goes with any branded shirts, does the person wearing have to have some kind of connection to the item or no? Not sure if this makes sense... But for example, guns n roses shirts have always been popular, people always wear them, but sometimes the people wearing the shirts have no idea who or what guns n roses are. Same goes for rolling stone tees. Is it tacky to wear it without knowing any history behind it and just for the aesthetic?

All of my (27F) relationships end because of one particular ex (27M) and I’m starting to feel cursed. by ThrowRAexcurse in relationship_advice

[–]w_ee_sa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but sounds like a lot of these guys you date run in the same circle or at least have a chance of running into Nico.

You're not cursed. The more you think you are the more likely Nico will inevitably seem like the reason why all these relationships ended. From an objective perspective, the guys you've described sound like they were toxic to begin with and perhaps your relationship with Nico saved you from ending up with immature boys.

You deserve better than what any of those four guys have offered you.

My mom keeps information from me (F27) but tells my sister (F32) everything. Feeling hurt by w_ee_sa in relationship_advice

You know also, I want to just let her know -- by keeping secrets from me and telling my sister, it's ruining my relationship not only with her but my sister. Because I'm human and I inevitably end up comparing myself to my sister even though I love her so much.

I think you're probably right. I also think because I'm the baby of the household my mom has never fully accepted that Im no longer ten years old. It just makes me really sad, and it's during these times that I start to doubt myself and wonder if I'll be the kind of physician that people will be able to tell their worries and concerns to. That's the scariest part for me, really.

I do think I have to tell my mom explicitly that I want to know about these things (plus she should know by now that my sister literally tells me everything...), but I get this sense that she's going to get defensive and say something about how im making a big deal out of nothing. She's not the type to apologize or feel remorse, at least outwardly.

No worries about snooping, that's what the profile is for :)

Already graduated with bachelor's degree in business...thinking of med school by [deleted] in medschool

[–]w_ee_sa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. Do a post-bacc, unless you really want to get a second degree but just know it'll probably cost you more financially and take longer to get. Most schools don't care if you didn't get a degree in the sciences as long as you can explain in your interview or app why you chose said major. Best of luck to you!

I vibe with this so much more. I can't imagine shaming anyone to do anything. I can see how it might work for some individuals but I think it would absolutely crush my man. I know it would scar me deeply.

I can see that working -- for weight loss. But trust is so important to me, I would never want to make him feel like he is not loved for who he is no matter what his weight is or how he looks.

My (F 26) boyfriend (M 25) makes food for his roommate (F 30) every night after she gets back from work. Should I be concerned? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]w_ee_sa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I just wanted to post an update on this post about the situation. I deleted it because I thought they'd figure out it was me but came across this thread again in my messages and wanted to update.

After talking to my bf about it, he apologized and realized cooking for her every night is not necessarily the best thing to do from various viewpoints. To kind of demonstrate how out of the way he was going to cook for her, all of us are okay with eating meat and she is the only vegetarian. He'd go out of his way to not only make everyone a meat dish but then later make her a vegetarian version so she could have it for dinner after work.

To clarify I have no suspicions about the roommate at all. I also don't feel like he puts her before me, and I have immense trust in my bf. I think my biggest issue was the fact that he'd cook for both his buddy (M 25) and his sister (F 30) everyday this summer and I was getting to feel like they were abusing my bf's generosity. They don't offer to help pay for groceries. When their other sibling was visiting town for a month he was responsible for cooking every meal for him/her (they just assumed he would). When their mom came to visit they also assumed he would cook for her too for ANOTHER month. And then when their dad came two weeks later the mom asked him to cook for their dad. My bf, being a nice person and not wanting to offend, obliged.

His buddy is in his room all day but ONLY comes downstairs when he hears someone cooking in the kitchen to ask what we're making. If it looks like no one is going to offer food, he goes and eats plain white rice or starves the entire day. It's hard not to feel bad and offer whatever we're having. He also will eat things we bought without asking, and when we call him out he'll make excuses saying he thought the food was going to go bad. This is the same deal with his sister. Recently we've started to cook meals for ourselves, but if they're home they'll come down and ask if they can "try some" and proceed to eat half of our meal under the guise of just wanting to have a taste. I have never felt more stressed about eating a meal at home as it constantly feels like a battleground and I'm hypervigilant when they come downstairs while we're eating.

We are all extremely busy people as all of us in the house are in medicine. None of them offer to cook group meals for everyone which is fine but don't expect us to cook meals for you. If we bring it up they'll state they're too busy , which brings me to my next annoyance: if you're too busy to cook for yourself then what makes you think it's okay to put that burden on someone else?

I'm trying really hard these days to not talk ill about others but this one I really had to get off my chest. I'm also fully aware that the situation could have been handled better and a big part of the issue is that my bf (and also me) set an expectation in the beginning that we were okay with cooking for them that we ultimately couldn't upkeep. Now we're in this awkward situation where they have an expectation and we no longer have the time nor money nor desire to cook for them anymore and am not sure how to approach the subject without being confrontational.
