I've been in the dating scene a while, and it's so difficult. Not only do I have to dodge creeps, but men faking being Christian.

I want to be married to a man of God eventually, so I asked on this sub so I can get advice from women married to men of God (they've been around them enough to know), or even men if you're a man of God and could offer some tips?

Also how to tell quick if they're faking. Some of them are too good at it 😭

It's always something with my stepmom and also a loose loose situation. If I do right? I'm wrong. If I do wrong? I'm wrong. This year I'm doing school online because of some medical reasons and severe sleep depression I've found it hard to make it to an actual school building. And because nighttime is when I feel most at peace, I find myself doing chores (ones that apply for in my room and bathroom) and schoolwork. Well now she has a new issue. This time it's me walking 🫩. Ive had the habit for about 6 years now, where I just walk back and forth in my room to regulate myself, think, and to get exercise. It had never been an issue. But now apparently it's "waking her up.". Thing is, my room is on an entirely different floor from everyone else's, and my room is above the garage. (Its like a finished attic situation). And if I put my phone on a song max volume, it's impossible to hear it if you're more than 7 feet from the door, which her bedroom is almost triple that, and my dad's room is about 10 times that, he's on the opposite end of the house from me. And my phone at max volume is much much louder than my footsteps! And now he's claiming he hears it at night too. Like bro 😭. Also you'd think after 6 years even if she could hear it which im most sure she can't, she should be used to it by now. As well as if I'm up at night, that's when I'm doing my responsibilities. And she doesn't seem to worry about me getting woken up because all through the night she slams doors around my room, which she knows wakes me up. 😭

I sent in just two items and after about a week and a half I got an email saying both were photographed and needed to be edited. Does anyone know the time frame now from how long it takes for them to be edited or now about how long it may be till they're listed? Thankss

|| Context:

I'm 17 and ive been pressured to start going to a gyno and getting testing for check ups and for bad period cramping. I know right now it's not like, necessary necessary now, but I know the need to get checked out will come soon.

I've experienced SA, very creep doctors when it comes to anything below the waist since i was a child, etc, and im extremely uncomfortable with anyone seeing or touching anything down there, along side still having my v card (and no desire to get in a sexual relationship or even have a romantic partner be up in my stuff bc of the SA).

I've been told that because I wasn't r*ped, I shouldn't have such adverse reactions when a parent or older figure in my life tries to get me to go to a gyno. But I'm genuinely scared fucking shitless.

|| main question:

How can I maintain my feminine health the best I can without having to do invasive testing or not go to a gyno unless absolutely necessary? I do genuinely care about being healthy but I can't even imagine someone even seeing down there without having a severe panic attack and bawling my eyes out.

Like share what yall do since I genuinely have no clue and the only thing I've been told is to just suck it up and go to a gyno as if that's the only option.

(Not asking for like deadass medical advice just want to know what other people in similar situations do to keep themselves okay or how they navigate gynos and feminine care)

Thanks 🤍🤍

So I had a few items picked up by usps pickup since I've been sick and couldn't really get myself to the post office but I still needed to ship out the last packages I had before I had put my shop on vacation mode.

Well because of 4th of July and the weekend apparently USPS was extremely backed up, and the items weren't getting moved or scanned in for days.

This caused one of my items to cancel and refund the buyer, but usps is already in possession of it and its on the way to the buyer!

I sent the buyer the tracking number so they can still track it, but now they'll get the payment back and the item. And i have no clue how to contact depop support on this because they don't have a drop down for this type of issue when making a report. 😭😭😭

I got a to-go order of waffle house today and once I got about halfway through the waffle I could tell of a superglue taste. Really weird. I smelled it and it smelled faintly of superglue as well.

I'm a long time waffle house lover and I've never had this before. The waffle is cooked perfectly though, just a weird taste and smell. Anyone know what this might be??

I got a victorias secret top from depop a couple months ago. There was no specific mention of the material in the listing so I assumed it was polyester and new (vs uses polyester in just about everything now). So I machine washed it. First time it came out with a weird chalky like white substance on it. I thought it was weird but thought nothing much of it. Its been machine washed and dried many times now. But today I was messing around with the tag looking for the item number to see if I could find another in a different color since I loved this one so much. Well, hidden in there in very fine print it said:

100% SILK.

And from the little research I know you DO NOT machine wash silk.

But im not sure what damage is on silk or how to fix it. Any advice or anything is much appreciated 🙏🙏
