What's Bothering You?

[Dunquixote]

I am a bit bothered by how disrespectful people can be about other’s opinions. It is okay to disagree but don’t bash others please. It is very disappointing to see this regardless what social media or site it is (since some are more notorious than others for having rude people and trolls like reddit; caused me so much unnecessary stress that i stopped trying to post even why i have questions about a game).

I don't feel like myself, and I haven't for the last couple of months. I don't know what to do about it.

Just when I think fruit flies are gone for the year, I see one of them fly past me. Was going to have a snack but I just know the second I do, that same fruit fly will dive right into it.

wow sometimes I really hate my body and the varied, neverending pains and discomforts it subjects me to against all my best efforts

This is very minor and is related to turkey day in the game.

Spoiler: Turkey day spoilers

When the datamine information came out, I thought for sure some of the food items would be given to us on Turkey day, but I am sad that not only we aren’t getting the vinegar bottle or bag of flour, but we aren’t getting a furniture version of the meal we’re cooking (or at least as far as I can tell). I thought we’d get more food items for sure; I don’t count the casserole one as one unless we can customize it where the lid is off and is showing the food. really bummed since i was really looking forward to food furniture. the new furniture is nice and am happy we’re getting anything and the event sounds fun, but... idk doesn’t make sense to have thanksgiving without a lot of food or food items

I really haven’t had the best day today. I had it out with my roommate and it had been a long time coming. I had plans today to get a lot of art done and instead I talked with them for hours about crap I just don’t have the energy for. Everything worked out and I feel like we’re in a much better place now, but I just feel exhausted.

Also feeling a bit confused by someone I’m close to because they said they wanted to talk to me, but they kind of blew me off. I’d have been perfectly fine if they said they didn’t want to, but they told me they did. I really don’t think they did so now I’m kind of just feeling sad and a little hurt.

Ah I am sorry you had a bad day. >< ugh i am so bad at reading moods. i am glad i deleted the Buggy picture. I was honestly just trying to make you laugh even though I know how you feel about clowns . And i fell asleep when you might’ve needed someone to talk too. I hope I wasn’t insensitive to you .

Your fine and I would have laughed at the picture you didn’t need to delete it friend

I can’t sleep. I’m terrified of having to go to a dinner party for thanksgiving at my s/o’s grandmas house in south florida. We will be there 2-3 nights and I’m just losing it. I don’t want to go travel and I don’t want to go have a food sharing close sitting holiday just to pretend like Covid doesn’t exist. My s/o is pretty upset that I feel this way, and basically feels that my fear is ruining our relationship. I told him I would still go, but just woke up crying and scared. I didn’t want to tell him why I was sad, but I did. He says he thinks it’s extremely unattractive and a hinderance and makes him not want to be with me. I don’t understand. I’m not being irrational. He told me that he heard if you completely wrap your head in cellophane then you can’t get the virus. Honestly this caused a big fight in our house a day ago when I said that I was scared and did not want to go. It’s just a dinner party, and I don’t want to risk the disease. I don’t want to go ;-; we’ve been together for 4.5 years, but he’s said he always thought some big thing would come along that I wouldn’t be able to handle and it would ruin us. He says that his coworkers have kids and they all go to school and have dinner parties so if I’m being irrational. One of our friends has Covid right now and is suffering. He isn’t going to die, but I don’t want to spend my last final weeks of college feeling miserable. It’s not worth the risk I’m so upset that my rightful worry is being treated like I’m some irrational crybaby. I think I’m worthy of these feelings and it doesn’t make me a burden.

edit: I’ve decided that my feelings are rational and I am not a coward or a slave to my emotions for feeling this way. I’m not going to put myself at extra risk for a dinner. I won’t stop my s/o from going obviously, but if this is what ends our relationship then I guess that’s just how it is. Going to call his grandma today and let her know how I feel. I’m sure she will be understanding and not shame me

Wow. Your S/O thinking you're the one in the wrong is really bad, especially when so many people including the health workforce are suffering because of it. Your feelings are valid and not irrational, and I'm glad you've come to realize that as well. That was what I felt before when our neighborhood was having some sort of party elsewhere, I refused to go but my family forced me because everyone else was going and I'd be left alone in the house. I was told I was irrational and stuff and though our virus counts in the city were low at the time, I still didn't think it's an irrational thing to take this pandemic a little more seriously. Anyway, if your S/O thinks this is some sort of deal-breaker in your relationship, then I suppose it says a lot about how he prioritizes things. Above all else, if he really did love you then he should know where you're coming from and why you feel this way. It's shouldn't be rocket science to him.

UhhHHH I'm getting really anxious over the impending requirements for the rest of the semester. I feel like this sem has been dragging for way longer than I thought it would, and i really just want to rest now. I know our new module still starts on thursday but i feel like resting isn't an option. I feel I should be doing academic stuff right now but I can't bring myself to do them. I feel like a ****ty student.

Nevermind, I’ll be okay.

Having this pain on my back but it doesn't hurt, it like having a lot of weight on my back and l am feeling really down. But l don't know why l get this when l'm really down. Stupid back and even my throat feels the same weird pain. I actually never felt this way for a dream collectible. But l think l know why. But it's been on my mind for months and years.

thanks for reaching out, and yeah i don't think he meant it to be mean. I think he is just also worried, and didn't really deal with it in a great way. I'm a little embarrassed about how much attention my post got to be honest We've talked and things are fine about it now, I've told everyone that I won't be traveling for at least a few months and so far both of our families are really understanding. He's free to travel as he wants of course, we have enough rooms to distance from each other inside the house if we need to. Yeah i also thought what he said was really drastic, but sometimes people don't know the best words to express how they feel. At least that's how i see it.

Sorry you're stressing so much over school :C you're not a bad student, it's really difficult for a lot of people to keep up the motivation when structure is sort of out the window and it's only piles of assignments and deadlines. I feel it too. We're almost there though

I tried to cut my cat’s nails today and she was being frisky about it. My dog starts barking at the door and my cat got excited/startled? and immediately wriggles free and (accidentally) scores her claws into my stomach and hand :]
If there are better ways to cut my cat’s nails please feel free to let me know

can people stop disrespecting professors when they haven't even been disrespectful towards you.

Well my work just posted a warning that 14 more of my coworkers tested positive for covid in one week (on top of the 50+ people already in quarantine) and I still have no choice but to go into work or I can't pay my bills Also I have a few coworkers on facebook and they keep having birthday parties and acting like everything is normal despite being warned the port has been a hot spot for covid.

i am wondering if it is considered overdoing it if I say how much I love my villagers and post their pictures in threads that ask for some form of opinion on a villager. i am not ashamed that I love my villagers but if it makes people think my island is boring or makes them uncomfortable, Idk. i know i shouldn’t let people upset me but Idk, some stances make me question if I have been insensitive and if I should stop sharing my opinions? I have been trying so hard to be respectful if I disagree.

Oof I am so sorry. Please stay safe. I hope your coworkers haven’t been causing u problems still aside from this (though this is a major inconvenience to you since you need money and your health is important too). Hang in there too if they are being horrible again. I’m here for you if you need to chat .

My province is expected to announce some "new measures" today and people are already panic buying everything again I am worried if they give notice before a lockdown starts that things will become crazy at my work as everyone rushes in to finish up their Christmas shopping before we (non-essential retail) close down again. However I'm also kind of nervous that they won't announce a new lockdown when we could honestly probably use one. I'm going to be at work later today when the announcement happens and I feel like it's going to be a bad day at work regardless of what the announcement is.

If people are asking for opinions on a villager and you simply provide an opinion I don't see how there could be any problem with that. From what I've seen you are very respectful even in regards to villagers you don't like, as in when you graciously welcomed Violet to our island in the woods
