I had that phone. I freaking loved that phone. I miss that phone.

It’s so tough, isn’t it? We have so many scripts, and how-to’s, and support for ending romantic relationships, but none for ending friendships. I posted in another thread last week—here’s my response to another poster.

I’m going through this too. I’ve agonized over it and talked to people and finally came to the conclusion that we have different realities. I was twisting myself to fit in hers, because that’s what I always did, and I’m done.

Every person and every friendship is different. Some friends want the truth, some want you to listen, and some want you to validate their choices. Sometimes people want all of these. But even when people want truthful, genuine advice, there’s no need to be an asshole about it.

She’s such a bombshell and reminds me of the days of Cindy Crawford and the Glamazons. The fact that she has to take to social media to defend herself is...well...it’s ridiculous that ANY woman has to do that, but jesus...how freaking absurd.

If they aren’t in my field, I ignore. I’ve yet to get a creepy hit from someone in my profession, but I will also say that the community in my area is pretty small, and people’s reputation follows them.

This is something I have the hardest time accepting. You CLEARLY know it is a bad thing to do. Yet, because of penis reasons, it is ok? So either you are giving lip service to “this is bad” because penis, or you have a level of cognitive dissonance that is mind-boggling by any reasonable standards. Or both.

If you’re so quick to defend what is clearly indefensible behavior, seems like you have something to defend yourself. He’s working real hard to make it work.

Oh yeah. Totally a money hustle. Just cashing in on that sweet rape money. Because that’s definitely a thing that happens.

I haven’t. Pilsen is a bit of a hike from where I am. It’s on the list, though.

This did not happen when I was in college. I miss the 90s. Everyone needs to get off my lawn.

I’ve gotten food poisoning twice from Chilpotle. I’m not against it in concept - the food was always decent and fresh, but just thinking about eating it again makes me feel woozy. So I’m kind of “Chipotle sucks,” but I have reasons. Also, I live in Chicago and there’s a lot of good Mexican food around here, so I’m not…

I have a completely fallen arch and I need massive arch support in all shoes. I don’t get all the flat shoes. They are horrible.

Yikes! I’m so sorry. That is terrible.

Ah...I misread that. I thought the article was saying she didn’t see a doctor regularly.

Ok...so that is awful about Shannon Doherty’s breast cancer. Truly horrible.

I like Taylor Swift, but she can not dance. No shame girl...you just strut.

24 hours of unabated stabbing pain means you go to the ER. Take care of yourself.

I chopped my hair from a medium bob to a pixie in 2013 and I love it. I’m never going back. I’ve had hair down to the middle of my back before. Never again. Also, I’m not skinny. Not by a long shot, and I get way more attention (usually unwanted) with this cut than I ever did before.

The only reason I ever split a check like that is because I don’t drink, so if I’m out with people who are having multiple drinks, my bill skyrockets. But no one minds, and that’s the only time I feel like it’s acceptable.
