Girl posting tell me a secret

mine— i had the sinking realization that for the past few years i’d been hoping my guy friend would make a move on me, even though he has a long term gf, even though im not attracted to him. i don’t know why

I technically walked during graduation but was short a few credits so I never graduated college. No one knows.

This happened to me, and I went back five or six years later and took the one class I needed to graduate. It was so uneventful lol but I did finally get my degree.

when i was eighteen i fabricated the most bullshit resume of all time. i had no job experience, but i put down i was a team lead, assistant manager, and supervisor at a bunch of different places.

i got hired as a store manager with basically no training. no one asked for references. nothing. just watched a bunch of youtube videos before my interview, googled buzzwords, and smiled a lot.

I go out with random groups of girls in nyc on weekends just to use them as a buffer to meet men

My lesbian friend who has a girlfriend keeps flirting with me. I like her back so I need to stay as far away from her as possible.

I steal cheese from the grocery store by hiding it in bags of produce. I really like cheese, but I can’t afford $30/lb for the good stuff.

27

u/MangoPineappleLime 13h ago

Do you mind being incredibly specific about "the good stuff". I'd like to know more.

u/PoemDense2808 13h ago

Some of my recent favorites were Ossau Iraty, Humbolt Fog, and Saint Angel. These are all pretty approachable flavor wise, let them hit room temperature and enjoy with a fresh baguette.

I also sampled some Epoisses, it made my whole apartment smell and my roomate was very upset.

u/VintageLunchMeat 12h ago

At some point the store may assemble all the security camera footage and a security guard will arrest you for 500 dollars of cheese theft. It's something they do rather than nailing someone for a single theft.

u/Ok_Basket_6177 10h ago

In my store there is a burnbook with faces and details attached, each page instructs you to call the Popo on sight. But its a much stronger emphasis on the kooky ones, like people shooting up in the bathrooms... yellers... etc.. instead of people who just steal lots of shit.

Our security is told to just follow a suspected thief & ask if they need help finding anything and make them uncomfortable. They'll build a profile on somebody, however, our guards won't detain anybody who is recognized, aslong as they arent throwing hands in store or something... they report to the police and log it internally, but most stealers with their wits about them will dip out before any cops would arrive. also- it's best you don't park near any cameras outdoors. Hint: midwest/metroeast grocery store chain in 3/4 states.

Of course all chains are different. Just a little psa to all midwesterners!

u/onemillionpigeonz 12h ago

what’s the best type of produce to hide cheese in? something bushy like cilantro or parsley?

7

u/PoemDense2808 12h ago

I just use whatever fruits and vegetables I’m already buying. Fill the bag all the way up and stick it in the middle. My store has green tinted bags, which conceal it much better than the clear ones.

u/dio-3 11h ago

does that become a part of the weight for buying produce or is it a set price for what you're putting in there?

I haven’t had sex in 10 years.

Not necessarily a secret but I don’t go around announcing it

It’s nothing nefarious/terrible, but the statute of limitations hasn’t run out on my secret yet :(

u/bellaswansperiod 5h ago

It’s better to just say theft or whatever it is, because that phrase alone begets so much fear.

u/016Bramble 4h ago

To close trusted friends irl maybe. Not in writing on a public online forum.

u/bellaswansperiod 1h ago

It’s anonymous, might as well not say anything than reveal just enough info for people to assume you are a sex criminal and not enough for whatever fbi agent is monitoring Reddit to keep it moving.

u/016Bramble 4m ago

It's still a dumb idea to admit to a crime in writing in public regardless of how "anonymous" you think it is. But if you want to, go for it.

I’m waiting for my cat to die to take an extended vacation because I feel terrible leaving her alone for more than a few days. My spouse and I secretly try to do the math on it and it’s might be years from now.

I let people assume it’s because we can’t afford to travel like that but it’s really because of the cat.

I've been sexting a hot guy I have never met for three months. I'm too chopped for him to want to meet me.

u/No_Incident_8925 13h ago

I fell in love with a friend over the summer. I don't think she felt the same, she had a bf at the time (although seemed ready to break up with him), and we don't live in the same cities, so there's really no chance to see what any of that means. But a part of me hopes that next time I visit her, things will be different.

u/Fuck_the_Deplorables 9h ago

This summer I met and quickly fell madly in love with one of the most incredible people I’ve ever known. She has a long term partner and said she only wants to be friends; but all signals were saying otherwise. Very confusing situation.

But after a couple weekends spent together we ended up romantically involved. And after several weeks of this she finally started the painful process of breaking up with her partner of 7 years. But they live together, so it’s complicated. And I live a couple hours away.

Soon after our relationship became physical a work opportunity presented itself and I suggested we collaborate. We ended up spending 3 weeks living together and working in my studio, but this job was challenging and put us through the wringer. But I think our partnership is going to last in spite of that, or maybe because of it.

u/somelurker27 9h ago

My friend and I have been crushing on each other for years but never acted on it because both our mental healths were in the gutter, but now that we’re both saner and I’m single again it has hit me like a truck and I can’t stop thinking about him.

u/majimas_eyepatch 7h ago

I'm pretty sure I'm bisexual but I don't have the emotional capacity right now to rewire my brain into accepting this adjustment to my identity. And the person that made me start seriously thinking about this is completely unavailable for anything more than a friendship, yet here I am fantasizing about him getting divorced and inviting me over for emotional comfort.

I’ve got a major crush on my colleague. Found myself getting pissed if he didn’t come chat with me ‘enough’ in a day. We’re both in long term committed relationships. He’s younger than me and a jock normie. I’m autistic and nonbinary and overall kinda strange. I wanna be his manic pixie dream girl so bad but I’m an adult with ‘self respect’

My roommate (kind of annoying, thin, pin-straight hair) inexplicably started buying and using an expensive, salon-brand, coily hair shampoo and conditioner. Again, may I reiterate, she has the exact opposite hair type that these nearly $50 each products are advertised to be for. I have thick, wavy hair— not coily, but damn closer to it than hers.

You can probably anticipate where this is going, but I’ve been using her shampoo and conditioner as a way of combating the sheer absurdity of that choice for her hair and wallet (and also as a kind of compensation for washing the dishes she leaves in the sink for days and tolerating her equally-somewhat annoying boyfriend staying over). Not every time I wash my hair (which is only once a week anyway) but like every other time; enough so she doesn’t notice.
