I'm 24F, starting MSc in Responsible Business and Sustainability at Trinity this September. My accomodation request was 'unsuccessful' and I'm looking for a private housing and I'd REALLY appreciate if you got any leads on a spare room, housemate vacancy, or house share near campus. Budget is €700-€800/month.

A little about me - I've been in accomodations (aka hostels) since I was 17, so I'm very used to sharing a flat/room. I understand the importance of respecting personal space, being considerate about noise and I'm tidy.

So, if you are on the same boat or enrolled in the same course or if you got any leads - feel free to comment and I'd love to connect with you.

Thankyou very much in advance :))

I used to study and work in Coimbatore and I commuted via bus mostly because it was convenient and easy to book. There were days where I booked AC sleeper seats for 650 only. And today when I was looking up to go to cbe THE PRICES ARE NO LESS THAN 1.5K PER SEAT!! LIKEEE WHAATTT??? And this wasn't the case even 4 months before.

I had been accepted into one of the postgraduate courses in TCD. I have offers from Bristol and Utrecht as well, but after my pros and cons list I finally settld with TCD being the best bet.

I just saw another course that interests me more and I wanted to apply for it as well. But the deadline to accept the current firm offer is 4 days.

I wanted to know if I accept this offer, will the application for the other course be considered? Is there any option for extension?

I 24F and my boyfriend 26M have been in a relationship for the past 5 months. We dated for like a couple of weeks and everything was too good for us to hold back. The sex is great, he is kind and we fight with eachother, for eachother. But yesterday he asked me if he could buy me a thong and a bra. I find thongs very uncomfortable so I asked him why. To which he said that, it's just a sexy thing and it could be used to wear dresses where you don't have to worry about panty lines. I explained that there are alternatives ( like the seamless ones) and said that there wasn't a need for it. He again said that he'd buy one from a good brand where the reviews are great about being comfortable. I didn't want to have an argument so I gave in.

I then asked him about the bra and he said that he would find me sexy. At first, I got offended real bad but I calmed down and said 'idk if that's what I want'. I added that I didn't want to be sexualised. He swiftly said that 'Who am I going to sexualise if I don't sexualise you'.

This truly caught me offguard and I said that I didn't know whatever he asked/said was even okay to be asked out loud. He said that it wasn't a bad thing. He also said that it's bad to objectify but not sexualise.

I feel like I got a really big ick. I don't even if there's a word for this feeling I'm feeling right now. I feel like I deserve respect and not being sexualised. He said that I call him hot and that's sexualising him and whatever he did was the same too. Now I truly don't know if this is okay, if it happens everywhere or if I even want to be in this relationship.

Edit : I finally realised that I'm a people pleaser. I thought that I was done being one, but I think I've still not changed at all. All of this worry came from a place of not being enough for him and wanting to do something when I don't feel comfortable doing it. I love that he finds me sexy. Whatever feeling I got was not an ick. It was a fear of loosing myself in the process because I wasn't able to put lay out strong boundaries.

This was my first ever post and I can't thank everyone enough for all of the perspectives and support you've given. I'll work on myself. Thanks again.
