We need a word to express the concept of impressively terrible. Think like [newword] : impressive :: infamous : famous

Their emotions are perfectly valid though. Let's not make fun of them or belittle their problems when the stuff they're going through now is (probably) the most serious stuff they've ever been through in their life.

It's also possible OP didn't mean French class, but it was taught in French and the student had trouble due to the language barrier. There are parts of Canada that mainly speak French.

High school is overrated due to teen movies, college is the better years

Oh boy... this reminds me too much of my ex which is a mild version of yours. The best of luck to you mate, glad you moved out and can build a better life now!

>Moved in together Nov 2021, and kept breaking up/making up until April 2022 when she started threatening my family's dogs. Since last November she has slept in the master and I have been sleeping on a pull out couch in the second bedroom
you made it less than a month before sleeping in different rooms is impressive

My daughter broke my ribs while I was pregnant with her. She kicked and pushed incredibly hard for a fetus.

It sucks, wallow in it, embrace the suck, feel the pain, wail and pound fist at the loss of a young love.
But ultimately you'll get over it, and once you are older you'll look back on it a bit wistfully and kinda laugh at yourself for being so attached to someone you barely knew, but also kinda sad that the ability to fall in love that easily evaporates with age.
Bitter sweet man, that's life. you'll be ok.

Glad I'm not the only one who couldn't make sense of it. Maybe rewrite it as a coherent story, rather than copy/pasting a bunch of Reddit posts that don't go together...?

Depends on where you grew up. I was in a rural area and an hour was a trip to the mall after school

It's so easy to connect nowadays through Facebook, and other digital means. Imagine the struggle of people before the Internet era when people needs to write letters, take pictures and have it developed, go to the post office and wait for few days for the letter to arrive. At least, this is what my mother and father did before when they were still dating and my father goes overseas.
An hour away is nothing and opportunities like this doesn't come all the time.

I reread the beginning part like 15 times and still don't get it. Is it you the 21 male or is your English teacher? Also, why your English teacher would ask you, one of his students, to teach her daughter (16 male?) English? Why wouldn't she do it herself?
Besides this, honestly this is not the biggest of deals. You should have stopped the teaching right when you saw the whole situation started clashing with your own studies and exams, no matter this girl's crush. But still, here you are, tell you professor that you're uncomfortable and that's it, is just a crush nothing irreversible.

The first time I slept with my son's mother, I did something similar. I picked her up off of the couch we were making out on, carried her into the bedroom with her legs wrapped around me, then proceeded to put her down on the bed in a dark room... I miscalculated the positioning of the bed, and ended up full on body slamming her into the floor NEXT TO the bed... Fortunately, she was not hurt and we laughed hard about it. As you can see in the beginning of this story, she still let me smash even after smashing her into the floor.

I didn't say you should intend to break ribs, maybe my wording could be better and I'll correct it, but most people are too afraid and don't apply nearly enough force
"about 30% of patients will find themselves with a broken sternum or a fractured rib. In some cases, multiple ribs will be broken but once again this should be considered absolutely normal"
