i tried on the BBL pants with the drawstring and I’m a size 6-8 (size M) but I thought a size S fit me better. this is just crazy to me because I haven’t worn a size S in forever, and I wear a size M in everything else garage.

I didn’t buy but has anyone else sized down in these pants before? the mediums were pretty wide and the smalls hugged my butt, so if someone could tell me how they’re supposed to fit and their experience after wearing and washing these pants (if they shrink or stretch) that’d be great!

I want to order the means wide legged sweatpants but everything I see online is contradictory. I wear a 6-8 usually and wants baggy oversized look. would a mens large be gigantic if im 5'7? I know they shrink so I feel like they would maybe be okay

hello! i wear a size 6-8 usually in bottoms (5’7, 135 lbs) and im wondering if i order the large size of the sweatpants (not cuffed joggers) that they will be too big. i want a baggy look but im worried they’re gonna be huge

lmk what you guys think or what you wear if you have a similar size!

I'm 16 and I have two siblings who are very badly behaved and a single mother. I genuinely feel that my heart is so heavy because I am so burnt out from living here.

My mother has made some poor choices in parenting. ive lived in a messy house my whole life, there's so much constant yelling, and I have a bad relationship with my younger sister which I don't blame my mother for, but it's just another attribute to this dysfunctional household.

I've always felt disconnected from my mother. we've never had a good relationship and even though I love her, it's not easy. I can tell that I am responding to truama in my every day life and it's exhausting. Ive had an avoidant attachment for so long, I overcompensate in putting other people first (weird but there is a correlation), I overanalyze my actions, my thoughts, and everyones behavior towards me, and I am genuinely just getting so tired. these are only a few examples.

I don't know what to do because I am starting to really resent my mom. she's not emotionally intelligent and it's sometimes hard to talk to her. know she tries, but she's failed me a lot and I am suffering because of it. how do I move forward, because I want to have a good relationship but I just am always in a bad mood around her.

I have learned to be very good at open communication, so I am considering just telling her that I am starting to resent her. what do you guys think?

I am truing to get a therapist, but for now I have reddit. I really need help, so any advice is appreciated.

hi guys, i’m going to be a freshmen next year and am pretty sure that pa school is what i want to do. the school im committed to doesn’t have a direct admission (4+1) program. there is a school close by that does have one, but i wouldnt want to go there other for their 4+1 program. would it be worth transferring, if after my freshmen year i decide that pa school is for me, to a school with a 4+1 program that will guarantee me a spot at pa school?

im worried because pa school is so competitive i won’t get in. the school im at currently is very good for health (one of the best in the country) and im majoring in psychology with plans to take prereq courses for pa school.

let me know if major and plan with the pre reqs is solid, also if transferring would be worth it because now im nervous i wont get in.

title says it all. I want to explore beyond chocolate and finally protein powder so I want to try birthday cake next, but any protein powder you guys like is helpful. I don’t really care about texture

Idk if this helps but I’ve used levels which is meh for me, orgain which is pretty good, and the chips ahoy one which is good. let me know what ur recs are!

Hi guys! I work at a restaurant and took home lots of pastries leftover and I’m not sure where to take them. Does anybody know any shelters or anywhere in the pittsburgh area that will accept food surplus? thanks!

ive been committed to pitt for a while and i have a roomate, housing deposit, everything all figured out. but, today i went to penn state with my friend and liked it so much thats making me heavily question my decision. I toursd PSU in the summer and didnt like it, but now im having serious doubts.

im honestly regretting committing to pitt and questioning everything.

i’ve wanted to go to a city school for so long, but ive really realized you only get a college town once in your life. there are pros and cons to each, but i feel more guaranteed to have a better social life. pitt however has better programs i think for my psych major and pre pa track.

HELP. literally what do i do. did anyone regret committing cuz now im convinced im going to end up transferring and im scared.

Hey guys, I am going to be a freshman next year and I was wondering what you guys recommend to buy for our room. give me all your recs, things you wish you bought, things you didn't need, etc. I submitted my top choice for towers B if that helps.

also, a few questions: would you buy a laundry backpack or a hamper with wheels? if you had a bed skirt, were you glad you had one or was it just annoying, and what inch size drop down did you buy?

thanks so much!

help.

I'm not sure if this is a diagnosed thing, so for now let's just say that I have had avoidant tendencies for so long. every time a guy likes me I drop out due to the fear of being trapped, I have trouble with commitment, etc. I've only ever had one boyfriend and it ended around the 3 month mark and I saw a comment that relationships end around that time because of avoidant tendencies become worse or something like that near that time.

I have wanted a boyfriend for so long even when I was young, but I found it hard to be affectionate with my family, so I feel as though I've been an avoidant starting at a young age, which is how it usually works.

I worry that my relationship ended because I'm an avoidant, even though there were some incompatibilities with us. however, it got worse around the 3 month mark, which I'm worried was just from my attachment.

despite being an avoidant, I feel as though I have good emotional intelligence (my ex did not, which was one reason why I thought we didn't work). is that possible? to be an avoidant but very emotionally aware?

my talking stage before I got with my ex was the first time I was every the most vulnerable and open to being in a relationship, but he asked me to be his girlfriend and I declined. then my ex asked me and I was so excited. now, I'm scared I won't ever be able to get into a relationship again.

this post is a MESS but so is my brain right now. getting over a breakup, worried I won't be able to find anyone else because of my attatchment, and HELP how do I get over this.
