I’m so confused what are they how do they work

I’m a fan who’s out of the loop. I watch the seasons and only recently have gotten into Reddit. I’m learning new things about contestants I never knew about!! Cagayan was the first season I ever watched years ago and I am only finding out TODAY about what happened to Reiman (Spencer). Can someone fill me in? On.. everything???

Do fans not care about her health? I’m genuinely confused. She is obviously not healthy. Is that a healthy body to them? How is it healthy? It’s making her look near 50 which is really sad. She is still very young and could be incredibly healthy and look younger than her age if she just took care of herself.

Hi all, I actually posted here earlier about my MIL, so this is somewhat of an update but mostly a question.

My MIL is constantly buying DH and I tons of crap (entire grocery hauls, bags of clothing, shit we do not have room for etc.) Well, she most recently bought me a Fenty beauty full-size foundation and mini blush. In the wrong shades. So I asked if she would mind if I went to the store to exchange for my correct shade under her # since there was no receipt, she said yes.

Then a few hours later, she tells me the foundation was actually a “free gift” with purchase of the blush. i.e. subtly hinting I will not be able to exchange/refund.

Now tell me why does she think I was born yesterday. I have been using makeup since I was 12, I know the cost of products and how promotions work. You don’t get a FULL size Fenty foundation in a random shade for free. She did a white lie, and I’m wondering why??

This isnt the first time either. When DH and I got engaged she wanted to take both of our families out to eat and asked me where to go. I picked a NICE but not EXPENSIVE Italian restaurant. When we get there, she says “for our reservation, we have to meet a $1,000 minimum so order anything you want!! And don’t ask the staff about it they don’t know anything.” Now I understand there are restaurants that have a minimum sometimes, but this one was NOT one! Entrees were literally $10. We were a party of 6. That made ME feel like an asshole because I chose the restaurant, and now everyone in our party would blame me for making her spend so much money. It make me feel so bad. I know she just wanted everyone to enjoy themselves, but I cannot stand dishonesty.

So WHY DOES SHE DO THIS SO MUCH??

As title says. MIL is constantly buying a ton of things DH and I do not need. I feel like all I can do at this point is take it, say “thank you” and take it to goodwill. Or return it in the RARE chance she kept the tags on.

I don’t even have to worry about wearing any of it in front of her, because she buys so much clothes she forgets what she buys.

She just loves to shop and spoils her sons, so we are not the only ones receiving so many gifts. She’ll buy us gallons of groceries, a ton of clothes that aren’t our style, and most recently she got me really expensive makeup that wasn’t even my shade (she guessed!).

Anyone else have a MIL like this?

I’m enrolled to take Microbiology and A&P2 in the Summer, an 8-week course. Is it manageable?

I just finished A&P1 and Chemistry in a normal Spring semester, and they both kicked my butt! I got passing C’s on both, but it was really difficult for me because I hadn’t taken a science class since I was 16, but with a lot of studying (and LEARNING how to study) I was able to do it.

I’m from Oklahoma and I’m going to Miami FL on vacation. Can I book a class there as an elite member? Or will it cost extra? I booked one but no notification came up.

When my fiancé 26M and I 24F were dating, his mother, my now fmil 55F, just called me his “good friend” and never seemed to take our relationship that seriously.

She did do a few things in the past that were really upsetting, but we have moved past them. I once posted about it on here but way too many people were practically ready to chase her with pitchforks saying she was out to get me. (We are Asian, and I believe a lot of her actions are cultural) I really do not believe that. She is a genuinely good person and has good intentions, her way of showing them is quite strange but if you knew her you would know what I meant.

Anyways, we got engaged a few months ago and all of a sudden it’s like I’m her long lost daughter. Every time she sees me she HAS to be near me and get her hands on me somehow. She will touch my face like a baby or just start stroking my hair. It’s EVERY TIME now when we visit his family. It’s just like some big switch was flipped.

Fiancé does tell her to stop when he sees it.

This is something that is really bothering me. I do not like my personal space invaded, and already have a hard time sharing food/drinks with people (I have OCD but she doesn’t know that). The thing is, being in people’s space is like one of fmil’s defaults. She is always up next to someone. She is really touchy with all of her sons. They are used to this- I am not. My own parents do not do this.

Fmil is has a very… big character. Honestly she is always trying to be the center of attention and LOVES that. Which is fine, but the opposite of me.

Has anyone else had this happen????

Looking for an updated list😁 A lot of other reddit posts about this are a little outdated. Would love quiet cafes with outlets and enough seating!
