You don't genuinely like him, you're just lonely. Plus, he doesn't respect you at all, or his previous girlfriend. He won't treat you right, but let's be honest, even if he was the greatest man in the world, you're not actually into him.
It sounds like you're having a really hard time and you just want some tenderness and support, but you won't get it from a misogynist.
Lol pretty much, the typos usually get way more extreme.
I've been guilty of it in the past because I used to get so mad I'd stop correcting for my dyslexia or my general terribleness on mobile keyboards. Reason #∞ not to argue on the internet.
Not too sure about gringo but I know yankee is correct, I hear that one a lot from folks I know in the UK.
There's some weird linguistic drift where in the southern US, we call northerners yankees, even though in the rest of the world we're all yankees. Now I'm curious how that started.
That's so mean! I wish people were nicer about stammers, and speech impediments in general. When I got my first service job, I had a handful of customers like that, and I got a glimpse of how much it affects their daily lives. People got impatient and walked away from customers and hung the phone up on them all the time, they were excluded from everything just because they didn't speak as clearly.
And that's just what I noticed from waiting on customers. If they're friends, why isn't OP empathetic?
Oh that sounds like a nightmare! I'm not even attractive for a heterosexual woman (I'm a short, chubby, muscle-dyke-in-training with a missing front tooth) and I still have random straight guys try to get in my pants. If I end up "dating" one, we're both gonna be disappointed.
Narcissism, like all personality disorders, is a trauma response and also not indicative of someone's moral character as you can get help and learn not to act on your worst inclinations.
Everyone's saying bots but I think some of it is human-generated ragebait. Like that person who posted twice like "why did my friend block me" with screenshots of them devolving into crytyping as they tell said friend how stupid they are for being autistic.
(I took that bait, don't judge, it was cathartic 😔)
As for why, I couldn't tell you. Maybe they're not getting enough engagement on Reddit anymore or maybe it's not fun because Reddit already hates autistic people and will side with them. Who knows.
Not great. I'm really lethargic lately. I don't think I've done one thing for leisure, it's all just cook/gym/work/sleep. Any second I'm not doing what's necessary to maintain my body or my paycheck, I'm out cold.
My therapist had an emergency so we've had to delay the session by quite a bit. I have some social engagements coming up and I wanted to talk with her before canceling them. I think I'll just do it, I don't think I feel like meeting people.
The weird thing is, the majority of the time I wasn't even criticizing them. A lot of the time I'd be bitching about my own life and I'd try to be as specific as possible but my friend was convinced I was secretly talking about him, and our other friends agreed I was partially at fault.
Of course the times I did criticize them went even worse. I developed a habit of just agreeing with them and complying to all their criticisms of me, but that upset them more because it turned out they didn't believe all their criticisms and just said them because they were mad.
I don't know. I just don't want to make friends anymore because it's damned if I do, damned if I don't. I keep shoving myself into queer spaces because I always wanted to find love before I die, but I don't think I like being close to people anymore. It's confusing and uncomfortable.
I went through a lolrandom phase as a teen where I just said nonsensical or edgy things to try to get a laugh out of people. He probably just wants attention.
She's under no obligation to put up with it if it's annoying or gross, of course. Not getting the reaction you want is part of how you grow out of it and learn how to have a sincere conversation.
A minor thing, but I stepped on a nail once. Went pretty deep in, and I threw a fit when my parents pulled it out because I was scared. I have no idea how old I was. I just remember being a little kid, recounting it as something that happened a long time ago, and my older sister went, "please, that never happened".
No idea why she said that. Over the years my memory got hazy and I assumed I'd been telling tales as a kid. Then one day in my 20s, my mom mentioned how pissed she was at dad for dropping that nail in the floor 😐
We weren't allowed to watch Graveyard Shift when I was a kid because it scared my little brother 😂 it was years before I learned the Hash-Slinging Slasher was just some guy
Thirding Band Geeks, that was the highlight of my childhood. Great visual gags throughout, and it's nice to see Squidward come out on top for once. Also Squilliam was absent from the show for so long I thought he was dead.
I also really liked Frankendoodle and I Was A Teenage Gary for the absurdity.
I work for a big fucking store that shouldn't exist and it makes me mad every day.
Holidays are the worst. At Christmas the two big things we push are electronics and cheap chocolate, aka the two things almost universally made by slaves. Imagine your religion's flagship holiday being a celebration of slave labor. Wild.
Every season we stock countless shitty synthetic t-shirts nobody's going to buy, of some overrated cartoon character with a different accessory badly edited on. The amount of plastic going into landfills in the name of Stitch or Charlie Brown makes me sick to think about. Don't come at me for calling them overrated, neither is worse intentionally destroying a planet for.
The amount of plastic waste we make on the job is awful, too. Half the time I bag an order, the bag splits and I have to grab another one. Do you think we're always in reach of a recycling can? Nah, that shit's going in the trash, along with the "paper" (plastic) we use to print our labels that misprint 90% of the time, the extraneous plastic bits that fall off the milk jug, and so on.
But it's the best wage I'm getting. So I silently fume for eight hours every day while I contribute to the ruin of a planet I ostensibly love. Oh well!
I don't live anywhere near LA but I work at Walmart and this is basically my inner monolog. My job is judged on speed but everyone needs to be in my way, moving as slowly as possible, usually with all 5,000 members of their immediate family spread out across the aisle in case an employee dares try to get anywhere.

Keep him blocked, and take care of yourself.
