Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

A few years ago, Some girl I was hanging out with just used me to buy alcohol for her and her friends. Like she picked me up to hang out and there would be 2 people with her who I didn't know and she'd be like "oh by the way, can you get us some vodka". If this sounds weird to Europeans, the drinking age is 21 in my country. Like was I supposed to say no, after she pressured me into it and probably would have just ditched me if I refused? I don't like talking about it and I still have mental issues related to her to this day. I was actually doing much better with my mental health and taking care of myself before I met her and that hit me like a train and sent me on the path I'm on now.
