Hi everyone, i work with a korean team and they all use kakao talk, i'm a foreigner and i tried creating kakao account but it just won't work, it keeps asking me to send a verification message to a +44 number, so i got international sms credits but still won't work :(

My team is going out of their way and contacting me on other social media, but i don't want to bother them, also i want to stay in the loop without making them transfer messages back and forth

can someone please let me know how i can solve this? they're a very wonderful team and i would be very happy to take one burden off their back

thank you so much

​

i'm so ashamed for never realizing this sooner, i discovered this after a long conversation with her about how she feels in our household and how my father treats her, i feel so guilty for not knowing about this sooner

i will help her out and give her everything she missed out on

please wish me luck, my heart hurts as i'm very scared

they have a daughter together so that also complicates things

khoti this is my most embarassing story ever, my cheeks are red just thinking about it , tfoo ela nhar

anyways kent f lcollege w kent dima kanchof wahd l bent in her twenties sayga wahd tomobila zwina

fhad lperiode i was getting obsessed with cars so wahd nhar dik lbent kant ftomobil on her phone and i walked up to her i said hiii can i ask u a questionnnn she said yes ofc i said what's ur car model

she answers "ma3rftch" and keeps scrolling on her phone

my stupid ass didn't realise qm3atni, so i just continued walking home CLUELESS, not a thought in my brain

few seconds after i started walking away, i hear her katqol "adik lbent aji aji" , my DUMB ass turns back and WALKS BACK TO HER omg chdoni anta7r, she pulls down her sunglasses with the most disgusted look and asks me "3lach swltini ela modèle de ma voiture "

ana in my innocent stupidness i answered "gha i love cars w dima katbanilia f tomobiltek qelt nsewlek hit tomobiltek zwina"

this woman looks me straight in the eyes, decides to kill every single molecule of innocence and joy in my soul, and says :

"aaaah, iwa rah nas f7alek homa li kiqwso eliya, katbqaw 7adyini, wach ma3ndkom maydar"

at this point im still silent, my brain didn't even comprehend what she said, idk wtf i was thinking , anyways, after few seconds of awkward silence of me smiling like a stupid donkey she tells me l'modele dial tomobiltha

awdi at this point i just say "okayy bye bye shukran" and i go back home, then realizations started to hit me every step i took, every word she said, i started to slowly understand

I got home, went to my room, i teared up, wiped my tears, swallowed the rest of my pride and dignity, and decided to never tell a soul about this

i just wanted to compliment her car 😭😭😭 instead sbatni, i thanked her and went home 😭😭😭😭

TL;DR : to this day, every time i see her car parked kidrni khatri.

TL;DR : my parents are bad at parenting my brother, now he's mean and my relationship with him is suffering, they refuse therapy, please share advice

Hi, i'm 20F and my brother is 10M, when we play together it's always fun in the beginning but then at any small inconvenience (such as me having to go to work, me too tired to continue playing, me sleepy) he gets mad, screams at me, tells me he hates me, hits me, destroys whatever we did (for example he rips the painting or the drawing), says i'm mean

then after he calms down, he comes back like nothing happened and asks to continue playing, if i refuse again the cycle repeats and he cries and screams

this is impacting our quality-time because now everytime we spend time together i prepare myself for whatever tantrum he's gonna throw, this is very stressful and it makes spending time with my brother feel like a chore, he's also becoming very rude and doesn't listen, he doesn't respect my space or my belongings, he breaks my stuff and sometimes he does it on purpose and rebels

this is genuinely making me start to hate being in same space as him because it always ends bad in a tantrum, in me being hit, in my belongings being destroyed , he also lies a lot, etc

one more thing he does that stresses me out is that when he walks by me, he pretends he's gonna punch/kick me then stops at the last second and pretends he did nothing, also another thing i noticed he does with his mom is that she could be watching tv, then he'd hug her innocently and tighten the hug with his arms until it actually starts hurting her, she explains that it hurts and he just keeps going until she pushes him off, it's so weird and frustrating because he knows what he's doing but he thinks it's funny or something, he does this to her a lot and it's genuinely scaring me

i told them to bring him to therapy but they refuse and they say nothing's wrong with him, that's how boys his age are, he's just like that, etc

does anyone have any advice? my parents are aware of all of this, he does it with them too, it seems like they just gave up and they let him do whatever, even their attempts at disciplining him are bad
