Reply to TIFU by reconnecting with my EX girlfriend by Ltislande

I'd've told my ex to get bent (in the nicest way possible) if I was in a new relationship. The hell you going over there for? She's an ex for a reason, my guy.

You screwed yourself over and hurt your partner. No amount of saying you are sorry is going to fix that. I will be surprised if you are still in a relationship in a very near future.

Nah man. You need to let your current partner go. It's not fair to ask someone to trust you again after that, and I think it's pretty clear that you don't actually love your current partner. If you did, you wouldn't have gone and seen your ex like that. You knew what you were doing. I'm not saying you're a terrible person for doing it, but if you were willing to cheat on your partner then she's not the one and it's horribly selfish and cruel to expect her to move past your infidelity.

Reply to TIFU, might have colon cancer by Im_InYour_Balls

I had similar problems early on. It was all Hemorrhoids. I was freaking out and googling it all the time lol.

Your best bet is to stop googling it, it took me months to figure that out. For the love of god STOP googling your lower GI symptoms. Thats honestly like the WORST set of symptoms to google since its really easy to convince yourself it's cancer.

Also: If it's associated with stress, you might be looking at an IBD/IBS diagnosis!

Reply to comment by HorseActual in TIFU by procrastinating my highschool courses by Vegetable-Rest7205

I respectfully, respectfully disagree, but I suppose it matters if you are applying to med school, going to a technical school, or doing neither. Here's why. Both my brother and ex dropped out, enrolled in a 2 year community college and got their associates degree at 19, transferred into a 4 year college, got their GED somewhere in between, and one graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry and works as a Chemist and the other one works in Computer Science.

Reply to TIFU by turning down a guy I really liked because of my anxiety and now I can’t stop regretting it by babysharkso

Try not to beat yourself up about this. Let this just be a reminder that there are people out there that you can totally mesh with and connect on all levels. He isn't the only one out there I promise. I have adapted the idea that we all have numerous soul mates, people that we can just connect with differently than others. This can either be romantic or just in a friendly way. I have met many girls where I thought they could've been the one or they would have been great to date but something happened either similar to you, me or them were dating someone else, or some other weird circumstance. I used to let it eat at me that I might have messed up but after it happening so often, I felt validated in the fact that I was able to find people that I wanted to spend time around and viewed as potential partners.

If you don't find him I promise you will find someone else that will make you feel some way, if not more. What you did and you handled it is not your fault or mistake. We are all learning daily and always trying to get better. Everything is gonna work out.
