I’m wondering if there’s a term for this:

So a family member I have does this to me all the time. He’s like Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde. One minute I’m his favorite, the next I’m the worst. Sometimes he’s super condescending but then right afterwards he acts like I’m overreacting when I get upset.

This has been going on for years and I’m just not willing to put up with it anymore. I don’t want to say who it is, but it’s not my husband lol.

We have a work relationship where I barely get paid anything and he’s constantly condescending or mad about things he said he told me to do but never did. It’s frustrating.

I’d make more with a minimum wage job.

Kind of sounds like one of those situations where some days your a means and other days your an end. I have a "friend" of mine (loose, loose term) who is nice to me on days where it gets them something in return but otherwise shows no interest in me.

Alternatively, the person could suffer from bi-polarism.

Save or invest?

Either is good. Of course, you have the chance of losing stock. But interest from bank accounts isn't going to add up anytime soon. I think I get like .20 cents a year from my checking and maybe a dollar or two from my savings. They are just regular accounts though, not high-interest collecting ones.

I would say if you want to actually make money, keep an eye on stock and make safe choices. Wal mart probably isn't going down soon, as with mcdonalds. You don't have to buy a lot of stock either. Just whatever you're comfortable with and whatever is cheap at the time.

If only we could go back in time and get bitcoin when it was cheap...

Wedding dresses...

I don't know how expensive this would be, but what if you got the dress in the second picture you posted and then had a tailor alter it with plaid? Idunno, the dresses are beautiful though!!

Would it be possible for you to give us more context? I understand if you want to leave it as ambiguous, though. :)

It depends on the severity...if it is less severe, I would call it pig-headedness on Persons A's behalf. If it is very severe, I would call it possible mental abuse. Hopefully it is just pig-headedness.

Is emotional cheating just as bad as physical cheating or not as bad?

I guess the point I was trying to make is that you shouldn't write off your feelings because you think you're "just being jealous," there's a valid reason why you feel the way you do. And don't dismiss it.

You can be jealous of any relationship your significant other has. I've been "jealous" of my boyfriends friendships before, if he seemed to value his friends that were guys over me. It's just about wanting to be the person your loved one goes to first when they wanna talk.

DMT

I would never encourage someone to use harmful drugs. And I would never encourage someone under age to use harmless drugs. I would just retell my experience (if I even had any, I really can't say I've done "drugs") so at least they know one person's perspective.

Neon Genesis Evangelion is my favorite. Steins;Gate and Baccano are also way up there.
Satoshi Kon's films are great and not tropey for the most part. Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika, Perfect Blue, and Milennium Actress are probably his most popular works.
Summer Wars, Wolf Children Ame and Yuki, and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time are gorgeous, incredibly touching films by Mamoru Hosoda.
Erased is a very good mystery series from a couple of years ago.
I'll most likely add a couple more as I think of them.

Thank you!!
I've seen Paprika and Perfect Blue - they were both haunting. Wolf Children and Summer Wars are two of my favorites. I watch Wolf Children when I need a good cry, haha. Have you seen the Boy and the Beast? Same studio, great great great film.
I'll have to check out your other suggestions :)
