or is it just me
but mom how will other people know that you, a white Texan, are a Christian
Also if this is a stranger or someone who isn’t very close to you make sure you keep a respectable distance (about arms length) and keep you tone polite and positive (you look very nice in that dress vs. HEY YOU NICE DRESS). From personal experience even when the compliment isn’t threatening or sexual it is still scary when a guy invades your space to compliment you, or when they yell it at you.
Though I whole heatedly encourage guys to compliment girls, it is important to remember not to make a scene about it unless it is someone you know won’t mind.
I understand that following all these steps can be confusing and a little hard to follow but I assure you it is better to try and be polite rather than enthusiastic when talking to strangers.
I’m sorry for hijacking the post I just really wanted to put my little two cents in.
So, if im a boy and i want to compliment a girl, idk on her make up or clothes and etc, will it not make her uncomfortable? Not in a hit up way more of a i like your style, would it be ok? Im sorry if it sounds stupid sfjjxfxkhd im bad at communicating
I know what you mean. For most women, no, a general compliment won’t offend or scare them—and might actually brighten their day tremendously. I think a good rule of thumb in situations like these are if it’s sexual, don’t say it.
Respectful/safe examples:- your eyebrows look so good!- your makeup is poppin!- I love your outfit!- nice shoes!- your hair looks so pretty like that!
Disrespectful/unsafe examples:- nice tits!- your body is so sexy- you have a big ass- *wolf whistling* - I bet you’re good in bed
Given, every person is different. Some women may like being complimented on their body, but a lot of us don’t, ESPECIALLY when the compliments are coming from strangers. Basically, if your goal is to not make anyone uncomfortable or to avoid the possibility of making someone uncomfortable, the “respectful examples” are some decent ones to stick to. Anything semi-flirty or sexual can be risky.
I appreciate the fact that you cared enough to ask and don’t want to upset anyone. thank you for the kindness and consideration. have a great day! 💛
Okay so once I was basically tricked into saying I’d out with a friend, and since I didn’t know how to break it off with him (because I have 2 different anxiety disorders and this was the first time I had been asked out) I just canceled with out explanation, and ghosted him. Afterwards I had several panic attacks, I was worried he would try to confront me at work or that he would call me out in public. My anxiety was so bad I rearranged my school schedule so that I wouldn’t share any classes with him.
And when I mentioned what happened to my sister she just said “Well you could have at least given him a chance.” It only made me feel worse. I wasn’t looking for any relationship, and when my friend asked if we could ‘hang out’ over the summer I was fine. But when he asked me on a double date with two people I didn’t know I had to end it.
Women don’t like rejecting people, but we also don’t like being pressured into relationships. My mental health comes before your ego.
“why dont you just give him a chance”
idk because im not physically or mentally attracted to him and ‘but he likes you’ or ‘but hes really nice’ isnt going to change the fact that im not interested
I can’t understand why there is the stereotype that children of color are aspiring delinquents. Kids can be so beyond selfless and this one would rather stand between a gun and his classmates rather than see them get hurt.
The question I have is why in the hell is a teacher asking kids to be human shields?
This child is one of the reasons why I have faith in today kids, and I pray to God he never has to stand and protect his friends against a mad man.

A tip for hiding things: sometimes if you’re not wearing it you can hide it in a pillow on your neatly made bed, people rarely suspect your bed as a hiding place and if its kept neat you don’t risk someone trying to make it. Also, you can start taking an extra pair of clothes in your school backpack so they wont question the binder if they find it in there.
How to have a binder without your parents knowing:
Pick the binder you want online, add it to the website’s shopping cart and start to check out until you find how much it costs with shipping and tax.
Save up enough money to buy the binder. Make sure you have a few dollars extra, to buy the card itself and just in case.
Go into a store and buy a prepaid VISA card. They have them at lots of stores, even CVS. (You can also ask a friend to do this if you can’t get to a store on your own)
Prepaid credit cards require you to be 18 to open an account, but you can purchase prepaid gift cards at a grocery or other store at any age and use them wherever Visa, MasterCard or AMEX are accepted.
These gift cards, which aren’t reloadable, usually carry an activation fee along the lines of $4.95 for every $50 increment. You usually find them in denominations of $25, $50 or $100.
Buy the binder online. Put the name on the card as “Visa” in the payment section of the website. If you don’t have access to a computer at home, use one at the library.
Clear your internet history if you’re at home. Make sure the invoice is sent to an email that only you have access to.
Ship it to a consenting friend’s house or an accepting relative, if you have one. Or ship it to your own house and say you bought a present for someone. You may have to go to a store in person and buy a physical present to then gift to cover up that it wasn’t in the package.
Hide it when you get it.
Handwash it when it gets dirty. Or start doing your laundry yourself. Wring it out and hang it to dry in the back of your closet.
Bring it in a bag with you to change into it when you’re out of the house.
(Or ask a friend with a debit/credit/gift card to buy you a binder if you give them the cash.)

While the millennials offer us support we need to rise to the challenge the boomers presented us with. We will make this world better! We will see a day when equality is more than just an ideal!
I will gladly charge across No Mans Land! Whose with me?
millenial generation got a little too beaten down and miserable but im delighted to see that gen z seems to be frothing at the mouth and out for blood
