Today I've had a long back and forth with this atheist online. They were wrong about Christianity in many ways and during the argument I provided multiple Bible quotes which proved their comments wrong. I did my very best to be respectful and kind but they ended up mocking me, calling me hateful, a hypocrite, evil, and even accused me of cherry picking the bible which I definitely did not do. I've always shown nothing but love to everyone around me, even atheists, ESPECIALLY atheists. A part of me wanted to just explode but I decided to drop it and walk away. Now I'm left feeling offended, sad and even humiliated in a way. Why is that? How do I deal with these emotions? I'm comfortable in my faith and know I was right but it still hurts so deeply.

Me and my husband (late 20s) are friends with a couple (also late 20s) who have a lot of money. One of them is a trust fund baby and the other one's just "lucky".

It's silly but it's so embarrassing to hang out with them sometimes because we are so fcking poor. We have rent unpaid, bill collectors knocking on our doors and our clothes have holes in them. We can't even afford a car right now, I've been walking to my minimum wage job (which I'm probably getting fired from soon). Meanwhile our friends, they travel all the time and buy whatever they want whenever they want to. They don't work because their parents are paying for everything. This week they just got back from France and are leaving to go to Greece again next week. They asked what we've been up to and it's like...nothing? We've been rotting home, trying to survive. I feel like I've failed as an adult, always having to borrow money and needing help from others. It's humiliating to decline invitations because we can't afford to go anywhere. They're always bringing us stuff from abroad and I absolutely love them for that but it's so sad because I wish we could do that too. It'd be nice to pay for their dinner sometimes. It'd be so nice if I could just decide to go on vacation with my husband without it ruining our lives financially. I've never been abroad and I genuinely don't think I ever will. Seeing the world feels like a pipe dream.

I know it's ridiculous to compare myself to people whose rich parents pay for everything but being around them it's hard not to notice all the areas in our own life where we lack basic things. I keep telling myself that at least we still have a roof over our heads, we always manage to have food in our bellies and a bed to sleep in at night. It just sucks that every time I open the mailbox my heart drops when I see a bill. It shouldn't be like that.

Summer is around the corner and so is bikini weather. How do you guys deal with pubic hair/bikini lines? Shaving irritates my pubic area way too much and causes even more severe flare ups. Has anyone tried waxing/sugar waxing at home? Does waxing irritate the same way shaving does?
